The primary risks associated with Dragon Ball Z: Harukanaru Densetsu stem from its competitive multiplayer aspect, which could potentially lead to social comparison or mild competitive toxicity. The game also features cartoon violence typical of the Dragon Ball Z franchise, though in a card battle context. While there are no explicit monetization pressures or stranger chat features, parents should be aware of the competitive nature of the game.
