Downloaded this from YouTube (via YouTube-DL) thanks to the user Tyroine for capturing it and sharing it. I fixed the aspect ratio from 16:9 AR to 4:3 AR within the Matroska container and spliced the video file to specific scenes (the source featured gameplay battles so they're not relevant). The videos are in x264 and audio is OPUS.

Dragon Ball Z - Budōkai was pretty much the "original" Dragon Ball Kai and Dimps did an amazing job with the cutscenes of Budōkai, Infinite World and Burst Limit (this too isn't available as media video files). And the best part is, this is the GameCube version with the cel shaded graphics whereas the PS2 graphics looked flat. Even Dragon Ball Z - HD Collection (used the PS2 version) doesn't look as good as the NGC played through the Dolphin emulator.

As great as the cutscenes were, it regrettably only went up to the Artificial Human arc so I thought about filling the gap, and decided to include the Majin Boo arc from Infinite World. That's dubbed in English and Japanese, although no subs.

Fun-fact: Dragon Ball Z - Budōkai was the very first game to use the Dragon Ball Z song "CHA-LA HEAD-CHA-LA" and then only in 2011 we got it back again on Dragon Ball Z - Ultimate Tenkaichi ("Ultimate Blast" in Japan), and ever since, it was used now and then.

P.S. I included the instrumental version of CHA-LA HEAD-CHA-LA (thanks to Zestanor) on the OP, as an alternative choice.
