    Lol Gohan turned out to be such a dweeb, can't believe piccolo would let him go so soft

    Gohan ended up being a better dad than Goku I’ll say that much

    Nah I think he wanted to make Gohan the protagonist going forward but they wouldn’t get off Gokus nuts

    yeah i explained it in a different response, but basically after freeza he wanted to leave it open so another writer could do a gohan sequel series. then they locked him in for cell so he tried to set up gohan again. and then when they double locked him for buu he just said f*** it and wrote the sequel series. but by then everyone loved goku and gohan had such inconsistent characterization toriyama got cold feet and switched it back

    Hot take. Frieza was a good villain and all but Cell Saga was DBZ’s peak.

    Better transformations.
    Better fights.

    Everybody got time to shine. Android 17 vs Piccolo, Vegeta turning SSJ for the first time and trashing the fat android, Trunks debut, The mo hawked Android learning about the importance of life, Gohan turning SSJ2 and murking Cell

    Hot take, imperfect cell>>>> perfect

    A weird creepy bug man sneaking around and picking ppl off they can't sense his location >>>> my power level so high I can just tank everything

    Yeah this makes sense it lines up with my explanations too.

    It’s so wild to me cuz Gohan is a more interesting character than Goku anyway

  • Wt701

    Yeah, power levels got so out of hand in freeza saga since it was the climax it left him in a tough spot moving forward

    yeah if you think about it, up until freeza the gokus arc is perfect and is completely fulfilled. it follows him from boyhood to adult as we watch him become the greatest fighter in the universe. super-sayain was supposed to be climax of the series; a once in a lifetime thing etc. its only after all that did the plot get super messy

    I wasn't a fan of what they did with vegeta, on namek vegeta was that dude, was willing to do whatever it took to survive, from sneak attacks to ganging up on ppl ect, then later on he's suddenly this pretentious double who laughs at the idea of ganging up on cell, I get that super saiyan power made him turn ridiculously cock but namek vegeta>>>

    It’s crazy how a lot of DBZ villains starting forms be more interesting than their final forms which just end up being “grrrr my power level” that’s why I hate the Buu saga so much.

    The whole story is “Buu is so powerful and we can’t beat him until we can”

    Another bone to pick is the moments of badass strategy always get ruined by "lol power level"

    Piccolo badass trick attack on 17? Taken away by force field

    Vegetas ultimate destruction sacrifice? Lol regeneration

    Gokus teleport Kamehameha? LOL regeneration

    And there's so many instances of this, like damn at least let strategy play a role SOMETIMES

    if what you're saying is imperfect cell was a far more hideous and terrifying force than it's hard to disagree

    but perfect cell is a far more awe demanding opponent than a bug-man

    yeah the thing to remember about dbz is that it carried jump pretty single-handedly throughout the 90's the only reason dragon ball gt was even made was because the people at jump were afraid of losing the time slot on tv
