Dragon Ball Fan Illustrates Unexpected and Unhinged Crossover Fan Art That Looks Like a Nostalgia-Fueled Fever Dream

Have you ever actually had a fever dream? My dreams are strange and surreal anyways, but I didn't quite understand the significance of calling something a "fever dream" until just last year. It was the evening of my birthday, and I was feeling under the weather. Despite this, I hosted a goth-themed party and managed to ignore my body until the eleventh hour. I slept at a friend's house on their couch, and despite being absolutely freezing, I was sweating intensely under my blankets. I had an incredibly realistic dream that I was in the very same room, unable to move. The AC above my head was sentient and malevolent; it communicated telepathically to me that it wanted me to suffer and was thus blowing cold air right in my face. It was very much like being stuck inside of a nightmare directed by David Lynch.

The amazingly executed fan art featured below by illustrator @t_crux looks like a fever dream that would result from watching way too many cartoons while sick as a child in the early 2000s. Who would've thought to draw the cast of Recess cosplaying Dragon Ball? Scroll down to check out a selection of cursed images.

From Naruto to Spy x Family, plenty of anime have paid homage to the iconic Yamcha pose. Never though I'd see Peter Griffith pulling the crater pose, though!

Randall and Frieza have never existed in my mind at the same time. My brain has trouble processing this image.
