4 episodes of powering up and stuff, and 2 episodes of actual fighting is just to much...

Actually, 873 episodes of talking, 736 of powering up, 2 minutes of moves, the rest are all loops, 653 minutes of loops...

Bomb the shit out of them, and make them pay for what they did 9/11/01

I don't really have much of a problem with DBZ, and I'm not sure why so many do. Sure, the plot doesn't usually have much depth to it (the basic good vs evil), but I don't think the series needs it. It's the kind of series where there is always a hero to root for, a villan to boo, and a feeling that everything will turn out all right. The plot is simple enough that you can jump in at any point and get a fair idea of what's going on; you can just enjoy what's on, without worrying about all the details. There's a nice mix of action and comedy, so it can take itself seriously for an important encounter, but still throw out a few jokes during the ever-feared filler episodes of anime. Throw in a few likable characters (predictable, yes, but still likable) and some good special effects, and you get a series that can give some good entertainment for a half hour. To put it simply, the series is just plain fun.


And for the record, no, I don't think DBZ is the greatest anime ever made, or even one of the best. I prefer Slayers for my comedic action, and find deeper animes (like Lain or Evangelion) absolutely enthralling. Nevertheless, DBZ is a pretty good show, one that I watch if it's on, because I enjoy watching it, and I enjoy some nice action scenes or comedy. It's not a series that I hunt for, but just one I like.

This has made a lot of people angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.

the "seris" are all the same

OMG people are gonna blow up (insert planet) geuss who has to save them the Z warriors and (insert current "super powerful helper" here) OH NO they cant beat him why? Cause hes the most powerful eveer! But Goku can! But hes not here is he! hes training somewhere someplace far away. OH goku comes at the last second to get his ass kicked and then awakening his new powers from within, that or anotehr char becomes super powerful again! Cause you know in the beginning of the seris SUPER Saiyen (STFU about spelling your not japansese fine here Super Sajjaiiannanansdas fwf fe fLevel III) was the most powerful form... but consistancy isnt fucking important is it?

Okay you fecking morons, listen to this. The DB manga wasn't grainy. Shut your mouth. Did you know that Tenchi repeats itself about every 26 episodes, and its villains totally suck? That's right. Did you know that there are breasts in it? Yeah. Did you know it made its first appearance about five years after DB started, and DB art owned it? Did you know the artist of Tenchi Muyo doesn't know how to draw muscles? Did you know people actually like to watch people do martial arts? Did you know FUNimation messed up DBZ? Did you know you're a moron? Did you know that EQ totally bites the big one?

Sure, Tenchi 0wnz, but DBZ is just as good.

I find this post funny...
Are you saying DBZ is better because it has breasts? Good for it (but if you wanted to get technical, Tenchi has a lot more).

I'm kinda glad the artist from Tenchi doesn't know how to draw muscles, because not everyone has an obscene amount of muscles (Most normal people don't, Tenchi himself is supposed to be relatively, albeit sort of spazzy, normal person). Come to think of it, the artist from DBZ doesn't really know how to draw muscles either... Well, real looking ones...

FUNimation and stuff also horribly messed up Tenchi, beyond belief. Between bad translations, and censorship (Tenchi is a lot more adult based than it will show here in US).

I like to watch people do Martial Arts to. I like Bruce Lee. DBZ is not Martial Arts. Nothing about that is anything beyond simple fighting. It's just a bunch of kicks and punches (with fireballs thrown in).

Maybe Tenchi's villains do suck... But ya know what? The show is not about the villains. I mean, Vegeta and Freiza aren't exactly Darth Vader or anything, .
You know why Tenchi repeats itself 26 episodes? BECAUSE YOU DON'T GET ALL THE EPISODES OFF CARTOON NETWORK...
If you're getting your Anime from Cartoon Network, and basing things off that... You're very misguided.

No, I didn't know I was a moron, I'm so glad you've decided to tell me...
No, I didn't know EQ bites a big one, because I still certainly have fun playing it.

Die plz k thx.

[EDIT]: Oh yeah, and Chal, Slayers is great,

Look at the sentence before "it has breasts." You'll notice it's about Tenchi Muyo. Not only that, but Pioneer translates Tenchi Muyo, fool. FUNimation has messed up DBZ way more. "Golly Mr. Piccolo, what the heck will we do about those gosh darned androids?" "Stop crampin' my style." "Whoa, that's one wicked power." etc etc. Did you know that if you trained for 20 years, came from a different planet, and had a great power over manipulating Ki, then you'd probably have big muscles, too?

Did you know that EQ is boring and repetitive? There is no way to be the strongest. Here comes Yam with his "Stop forcing your opinion on us bitch slut ho tramp skank geisha creeper woman."

Not only that, but you make yourself sound stupid in my eye when you say such foolish phrases at "Die plz k thx" or "Die now keke lala $Q^%TIqha4." Just shut your mouth please.

You realize, you're entirely too worked up over this.

She was saying phrases like that as a joke, she doesn't really expect to be cool or anything because of that phrase.

If you're familiar with unedited Tenchi, you'd also know that Pioneer doesn't just translate, they snip out certain scenes, smartass.

My sister has just as much right here to post what she wants as you do. She was much more mature, and much more courteous about her arguements than you've been.

I suppose your muscles would be big after all that training, but I don't think they'd look anything like that...

I think you're freaking out a bit too much over this.

You're right that I'm wrong. Majority rules, I guess.
