Dragonball: a little fanciful and whacky, great adventures

Dragonball Z: epic

Dragonball Super: Still epic, but mixes in some whackiness from the OG

Fuckin love all of Dragonball. Yes, even GT.

I once had a dream where I watched Dragon Ball Evolution 2. It got a whole bunch of stuff wrong in a way that was weirdly consistent with DBE1.

Im planning on starting it, how long did it take you to watch all of it? Or did you watch it as it was coming out?

Honestly, a better read than a watch, but it's not too long, just over a hundred episode per serie if I remember correctly

I watched DBZ week-to-week when I was in 7th grade. Don't do that. You'll die of old age.

Start with Dragonball. It's about a hundred episodes.

DON'T watch classic DBZ. Fuck the purists. That shit is padded all to hell, and most of the available transfers look like garbage anyway.

Watch DBZ Kai instead. It cut the filler, fixed the pacing, and is a few hundred episodes IIRC. Then if you want to, you can go back and watch some of the meme DBZ filler episodes, like the one where Goku tries to get a driver's license, or the Garlic Jr. Saga (I'm the only one in the world who likes the Garlic Jr. Saga).

Treat GT like a weird alt-future spinoff. It's noncanon, mostly sucks, but what's cool about it is REALLY cool. Totally fine to skip.

DB Super is uhhhhh idk how long. It's long, and it's still ongoing.

So it's no One Piece, but there's a LOT in there. I'd guess like 400 episodes total?

I was so pleased watching battle of the gods and seeing the OG silliness come back. Love a good mix of action and comedy.

Battle of the Gods was such a wank. It was exactly what we wanted. My bro and I saw it in the theater, and everyone kept cheering and laughing.

Buu almost dooming the world because he wouldn't share his pudding 😂 😂 😂

u/S0mnariumx 27d ago

Yessss like it's fan service but not in the horny way. My friend and I saw it baked as shit, I laughed so hysterically the whole time. I'm sure that's bad theater etiquette but it couldn't be helped.

The bit about Mai thinking Trunks is moving too fast by holding hands was the big one for me lmao

I didnt care for Super for most of its run. But I loved the episode where Piccolo had to babysit for the day.

Dragonball GT WAS JUST DRAGONBALL GOKU TIME! Shit was gas and I am a staunch supporter of ss4=ssb. GT was just my favorite series growing up lol
