The name reffering to the ungodly amount of AMVs that feature clips fom Dragonball Z set to a song by Linkin Park.

Supposedly, people make Linkinball Z AMV's because the "Action in the music reflects the action in the Anime". Bullshit. The only reason people make them is because Dragonball Z is the only Anime they can watch and Linkin Park is the only music they can listen to (because all of their friends are watching and listening to it).

Generally, Linkinball Z AMVs are done poorly because the people making theme are new to Anime...and to the music industry.

A buzz word being used to refer to creators and influencers forming or encouraging unhealthy relationships with their fans. Usually used in the context of young audiences feeling they have a relationship with the influencer due to the huge amount of the influencer’s content they consume. The influencer in question, however, is unaware of the fan’s existence other than the general knowledge of having fans. Common examples include Dream and his stans. These relationships are exacerbated by the influencers confirming they have more than a creator-to-viewer relationship.

The word is circulating due to various YouTube essays about the phenomenon using the word, and therefore people who enjoy complaining about influencers repeating what they heard in the video in any comments section they can find.
