| DB Kai was like a dream coming true for me. im thankful that they made this remake a DBZ like the manga no god damn filler no exaggeration of the episodes but the end of trunks killing androids and cell in his time missing and most of all no buu saga the dream half shattered. but i'll take it like goku: "Oh well" |
| We need a special Dragon Ball ep where Goku and Vegeta get a full planet for themselves to fight it out Cell's fights weren't as good as Freeza's because Goku and co. had to focus on keeping their attacks from destroying Earth. |
| Despite knowing the ending, touch me. OST fantastic, especially when Goku says that he doesn't want to be resuscitated. And it was good to see moments of the Classic in this episode. I hope one day, they do the buu saga. For Toriko, the anime did not interest me much. I'll just see if it has good feedback and when he has more episodes. |

| I hate when shows end. Because I always want them to continue!! People mentioned the OP X Toriko thing...can someone explain what that is? Is it a one-shot episode or something? I saw the promo for it at the end of DBK...and I'm confused. They don't really have anything about it on MAL... |
| i really thought they were gonna do all the sagas... |
 |
| Am I the only one that found the scene where Chi-Chi is crying while "Dragon Soul" plays in the background unintentionally hilarious? I mean, isn't that song a little too happy sounding for that particular moment? SerenityB3128 said: People mentioned the OP X Toriko thing...can someone explain what that is?

Yeah, basically, the first episode of Toriko will be a one-shot crossover between Toriko and One Piece. I guess Toei really wants to make sure that every One Piece fan out there also watches their new show (or at least the first episode). |

| Nice ending but too bad that Buu Saga isn't included. |
| Too bad it ended so quick, was looking forward to the Buu saga. Does anyone have a list of skippable episodes from the original? Would be highly appreciated :) |
| I finally finished a complete series of dragon ball! this would be the only dragon ball anime series i've watched so i cannot complain.. from the above posters.. i'm thankful that i watched this series where no fillers were shown :-D i really enjoyed DBK and finally understand all the hype of this fantastic anime! |

Excessive said: Suppose the ending was decent, though it did feel a bit rushed? That's beacause there were supposed to be 98 episodes, but due to the earthquake and tsunami one episode was cut out. |
| 7/10 |

| Gohan +1 in beast. Would be nice if they did the Buu saga. But I don't think I can stand watching Gohan go from beast to failboat Sayaman, to beast again, to shit food. |

| This actually ended at the right time, as Akira Yoriyama wanted to end his story directly after the Cell saga, leaving Gohan as Goku's replacement and the planet at peace from any threats connected to the gang. The Gohan at highschool, Tornement and Buu saga was a result of; masses of fans, high anime and manga sales and both companies wanting to continue raking in the cash. I'm glad Akira's true story has been told, as much as I loved Goten and Trunks as kids, we still have the Z serise if we get nostalgic. *The Toriko/One Piece crossover is a little odd; shameless promotion of a new serise, yet I'll watch* |
 |
| I was really looking forward to seeing the Buu saga, but oh well. That makes Gohan the most powerful DBK character. |
 |
| aniDB says there will be an EP98 on 4th April - is this source reliable ? |
 |
| well thats the end of that. fun times here and there but now its time to go (watch oher animes) |
     |
| I would like to see Trunks finishing off the androids in his timeline Anyway, is fun to watch Dragon Ball Z without those fillers, so it deserves 10/10 |
| It was explained that Trunk's timeline is different. Kinda like an alternative universe. So, it doesn't matter if they defeat the androids in their timeline, it won't affect Trunk's future. Anyway, I really liked to see Dragon Ball again without fillers. |
| Fuck this is over... We need the last arc !!! |
 |
| 9/10 cuz its just remake... Damn creators make the freaking new series instead damn remake.. |
 |
| Wish they finished Buu's arc. Hopefully Toei will do it in the near future. |
| no buu saga, what a shame, that's the best arc. |
| Final Fantasy VII is a shitty game. |
| I was looking forward to the Buu saga, but oh well. That season kinda is overkill anyway. |

What an awesome way to finish things off :) At what episode do I start watching the original to pick up where Kai left off??  |
Convolvolus said: What an awesome way to finish things off :) At what episode do I start watching the original to pick up where Kai left off?? Episode 194 in the original Japanese version of Dragon Ball Z. |
| I hope they make Buu saga but with a new animation |
| Honestly I liked the English dub version voice actors much better than the original Japanese ones... This is the only anime where I can say this, but I guess growing up watching DBZ in English just feels more natural than hearing it in Japanese now. All in all, DB is an epic anime and Kai did a good job bringing it all together concisely, but the slow fight pacing still kills me every time. I think I'll have to go back and watch the English version of Gohan reaching ss2, cause Kai didn't do it justice :(. |

| 3/5 nothing to love or enjoy, just ok |
| I really enjoyed watching Dragon Ball Kai! I finished it on April 20 this year. I loved to see it again as I loved Dragon Ball Z as a kid, and I still do! Too bad they didn't made the Buu Saga though ^_^ I just saw episode 98, the episode which wasn't aired because of the earthquake. It was released on August 2 on Blu-Ray. I don't see it on MAL though .. |

| Someone update the series, it's 98 episodes. |
    |
| Well this was the first time watching DB for me and i thoroughly enjoyed it, even though the shouting is too much xD I saw how much other anime has copied off of this :\ Goku :( Wonder if i should watch this Buu Saga, hmm.. 8/10 |
| Loved it! Some really nostalgic feelings towards the adventures of Son Goku and his friends)). Once again, I'm gonna miss them. =) DOKKAN! DOKKAN! |
 |
| Well, Gohan is a very good student. |
| Signature removed. See your messages for more information. |
| This is the first Dragon Ball I've ever finished and I really like it!!! |
  |
| 18 so tsundere. Overall, fantastic adaption for what they had to work with. Not an FMA:Brotherhood level remake but still very good. It's better than nothing either way. Personally I felt that Kai was much better than the original DBZ. There are only two things I miss about the original DBZ. Firstly, I miss the Bruce Faulconer soundtrack. It was part of my childhood, nothing left to say really. Secondly, there are a few filler episodes/arcs that I miss like the other world tournament (I know it's part of the Great Saiyaman saga but it almost certainly won't be included when they release the rest of the sagas). All in all, I'm pretty fuckin' stoked for Buu saga, whenever that's released. Vince said: One thing that always irked me about the original (and I definitely thought they might change it in this new remake, but I was proven wrong) was the fact that Trunks had to go back to his time and fight the Androids. Obviously, there's no such thing as time travel, but in theory, since the past was altered, so should the future, and Trunks would return to a time that would be parallel to the time he left. Meaning no Androids or Cell. But eh. Oh well. Wrong. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Many-worlds_interpretation You can see the above theory in effect in a more recent anime called Steins;Gate. |

| Toei Animation is so retarded, they should have completely reanimated it instead of upscaling the whole thing |
| Freaking awesome! The nostalgia! |
 |
| LOL at Shenron, what a lack of patience! Looking forward to watching Kai 2014 when I get back home in a few month. |
| Not happy that they skipped Trunk's cannon episodes and cutting most of the awesome fillers that add some favor and humor to otherwise dry repetitive overall story arc. But still pretty good. Really an easy watch, just plain fighting and characters being badasses. 8/10 ^_^ well, off to buu saga....not looking forward to it but gotta finish the whole story. |

| Man, that was epic! Now I was thinking to watch Buu saga, but I guess another time! |
| Great closure of not only this arc but also just in general for this first part of the various DBZ arcs if you ask me. This Kai version really did improve quite a bit especially on pacing while still remaining with the base story of what is Dragon Ball. Really love the Cell Arc so I find it quite nice how they finished this with the Cell Arc and split it up for the last DBZ arc(s) to be put on another "season". All in all I really had a very enjoyable recap watch if I can say it like that in running up to watching Dragonball Super! |
