So many inconsistencies, bad plot structure, and awful pacing.

I mean as a concept sure it was cool

But he got it by sitting still.

No intense training, no pain of loss from his girlfriend/mother/father dying.

Sitting the fuck still

The android saga changed the main villain 3 times.

Cell literally stops fighting people to host a tournament.

Dragonball Z has always been bad. I dunno why the Buu saga gets so much shit. It had some of the best moments. Mainly from Vegeta.

He wasn't just evil, he had a lust for fighting and pride. He had more character than any villain.

Not really, Vegeta did some irredeemable shit.

He didn't find that out until after he became mystic actually.

There was that bullshit with the z sword and then he sat still for three days or something.

It was always Frieza. He just had henchmen. Vegeta was a third party.

Dr Gero was the villain first, with no foreshadowing of #17 and 18. Then #17 and 18 were the villains Trunks warned about. But then bug man comes out of nowhere killing a city and I guess hes the main villain now. None of the villains were ever on the same team. Were gonna ignore Cyborg Frieza at the start.

But him stopping for a tournament is the stupidest shit Dragonball has ever done. Its a complete tone shift. Bad writing.

I didnt say he was a hero or something. I said he had the best moments. His speech when he became Majin, his fight with Goku, his (pointless) sacrifice, him tanking Kid Buu, and his completion of his character in recognizing Goku as the best are all top level DBZ moments.

The artwork alone makes it enjoyable. Majin Vegita, Gotenks.

My only issue is that the villain was again indestructible. Beating him up is as pointless as beating up Cell because he just regenerates the damage.

Buu saga was pretty cool at the beginning when the Majin fighters and Supreme Kai were mysterious new characters, but then silly Buu and Mr. Satan antics take over again, then everyone just randomly powers up to immediately get beaten by evil Buu making them all pointless. Then Kid Buu is beat with another spirit bomb like every generic filler movie villain. Lame af.

That's not really Toriyama's fault but his editor's, who didn't like who Toriyama was going to set up as the actual villain (Dr. Gero, and then the Androids), and then with Cell, he didn't like Cell's design and made Toriyama keep changing it until we got the Perfect Cell.

Everything after the Cell Saga ranges from goofy fan fiction to cheap cash in. The recent Broly Movie is the best new DB content ive seen in many years.

Maijin Buu started out cool and got so extra goofy by the end. At first I thought the villain would be the Devil guy (Deboorah??) but when it turned out to be the Fat Buu, who transforms and stuff and characters fusing it was just so much goofy shit.

It's good up until Evil Buu, at that point it has a huge drop off.

Buu being this childlike villain while everyone else is really serious is fun, I like the Great Sayiaman stuff a lot actually, and them blowing it because they just wanted to fight is good
