It's a kid show, watch it with your own children ! There is a chance they end up liking it enough to want to stick with the characters: bravo, you can show them Dragon Ball now. (though I personally would "skip" that strategy and directly introduce them to the series through the first anime.)

I'm pretty sure it's how the show gets people to watch it in Japan: parents watching with their children because of nostalgia or to present them Goku.

Everyone has their own likes/dislikes so it's perfectly fine to not be able to get into this. For me personally, it's really easy to separate what I like from what I think is good, so I can just sit back and enjoy

Just think of it as dumb-downed version of the prequels and watch it for the laughs... If you are watching expecting it will turn out as good as DB or DBZ on the long run, you'll just get betrayed.

Don't force yourself to watch an anime if you don't enjoy it. I would recommend you to either drop it (but don't rank it, unless you feel you can give it an actual fair ranking from what you've seen of it), or set it on hold for now and try to pick it up later.

How did you make it to episode 103 in the first place?

Episode 104 and 105 are really good.

Maybe you need to watch DB and DBZ first?

Or maybe you will only like the Dub that uses the Blu Ray of the Anime?

If you cant even enjoy watching ep 104 and 105 then just drop it.

And lastly, Just read the manga or wait for a good manga adaptation instead.

Because fate zero is kinda trash? It has teen angst and decent animation going for it but in terms of semi-likable characters it falls flat on its face and defecates itself....

I believe that most anime (aside from cg beserk) has the capacity to become good. Hence why I didn't drop it yet. I have faith in super because its dragon ball z.

I don't really like it as much as the first one, but I would still watch it. Unless I get bored of it. As a rule of thumb, DON'T force yourself to enjoy something out of guilt, out of the sake of completion, or just because someone suggested it to you. You should be watching it because you actually want to. Or else, it will hurt your enjoyment.

It's less guilt and more of an "I want to see it get better" type of deal. Same feeling I had with the mist tv show.

Do enlighten me on where I said I feel guilt when I give anime a low rating, because I can't remember ever saying that. The truth is, I just watch what I want to watch and stay away from stuff I'm somewhat convinced I won't like. You should do the same, because having a mean score of 3,68 means you're watching a lot of anime you don't like, which is just silly.

For example, why spend ~40 hours on Fairy Tail and DBS if you hate them so much you want to rate them 1/10? There are people that decide whether to drop a certain anime or keep watching it after 3-4 episodes, but you have quite literally watched more than 200 episodes of something you consider absolute trash. How can you stand watching that many episodes if it's a 1/10 anime in your opinion? I seriously doubt there is an anime out there that gets better after 10 episodes, much less 20. Why +100? DBS is a bit of a special case as 1-27 are adaptations of two dragon ball movies, but that still leaves ~75 episodes if you skip those adaptations.

Mate, you probably just gonna like the Dub with that uses the blu ray that fixes what most of the fans trash talk.

And did you even like the lastest episode?
I feel like the 103 eps watched by be a lie so please answer.

And you seem like that guy that doesnt have anything to do and when you see someone talking trash about something you just want to be a part of it so you can start talking trash without even giving reasons.

- Are you serious? Watching an anime that's over 40 or 100 episodes ain't that new anymore. I guess Gintama, Detective Conan, One Piece and Crayon Shin-Chan is still fresh on your radar.

iorn said:

- You just contradicted yourself. If you dissaprove/hate the show then go and say it. Grow a spine and stand by your choices. You seem like the person who'd rather indirectly say something and hide somewhere else than stand behind what you intended to say. Too much deflections gave you away.

This sums up who you are...

- You're obviously watching DBS for all the wrong reasons and sadly this proves it hands down without a doubt.

3: There's no wrong reason to watch an anime.


4: I didn't start watching super just so I could talk shit about it. Nor did I go into super thinking that it was going to be a raging dumpster fire. I thought super was going to be a true successor to dragon ball z. I noticed shortly after seeing the first 4 or so episodes that the anime was shit but I continued to watch it because it was dragon ball. I was going to give up on it but then I noticed hay I'm not the only one who can see how bad this horrible abomination is. So I started to watch super with friends. Because it's fun to laugh at poorly made anime in the same way it's fun to laugh at movies like the room and video games like sonic 06



There's really no point in saying super is bad because all the real fans of the of the series agree that dragon ball super is a sin far worse than gt. Really the only way you can enjoy super is by turning your brain off. Because most of the characters can be summed up by four to five letters...

I don't hate super I'm just grossed out that this is a project with an entire team of writers on it. And somehow all the characters scream. "Original character do not steal"

Answer the question, did you enjoy the episode 105? if you didnt its probably because you didnt watch the first Dragon Ball. But you had to be able to at least Enjoy episode 104, right? If not just drop it.

To answer the main question, many people here already gave you tips and tricks on how you might enjoy it more.

Also, can you give me the exact dam reasons as why you cant enjoy it? I have the feeling you actually enjoy it.

1: Poorly choreographed fights that are more boring than anything else.

2: A slue of characters with only one or two personality traits.

3: Predictable story.

4: Conflicts that often don't matter.

5: Bland universes with next to no characterization.

In short.

Characters that belong in an anime chatroom role-play, shitty fights, boring world, And no tension at all.

This show is a torture porn. I love DB and like seeing it's characters again but so far there is one step forward and two steps back with this anime. Bad choreography, bad writing and bad animation. The tournament of power arc could have been better then whole Z itself if it was written like back then.Unfortunately, we are stuck with a shadow of it's former self.

Okay kid.

If an anime has bad writing, bad animation, and boring fight scenes then what does it have? The answer is fucking nothing. Sao was horrible but at least the animators knew how to make an interesting fight.


Dbs no such luck. I'm not asking for the next hunter x hunter I just thought that dragon ball super would be better than Gt but that's not even close to being the case......


An show should have a layer of complexity especially when it intends to take itself seriously. Dragon ball super being no more complex than than teen titans go is a serious problem.

Sorry. I've never watched Dragon Ball, so what I meant to say was, Dragon Ball Z (the second one). Most people in this generation who have watched Goku's story have seen it from his adult years (Dragon Ball Z and forward).

iorn said:

- That's your opinion and highly unsubstantiated. You're merely catering to those who don't like Super. Bottomline is that the series has its flaws and it's nowhere near its predecessor (Z) yet it's successful and is going strong with or without you and your friend's approval. They wouldn't give a rats ass if you choked on meat balls while watching this show you consider garbage.

Let me just start off by saying I have nothing against anyone here aside from the annie fangirl. But I digress.

1: I only started watching this anime with after I noticed it was a raging dumpster fire.


2: Of course you wouldn't think super is bad because you don't have standards. You're just another blind fan rushing to defend something that's clearly trash because you see it through a massive pair of nostalgia goggles . You saw you can see its flaws but I bet you can't even name three. Here I'll name the first two for you.


The planets don't have enough characterization this makes the univrses in the show feel shallow and underwhelming.

The super dragon balls destroyed any form of tension that the series could have had.

Golden fucking freeza


3: I'm looking for alternatives

4: Go cry somewhere else. You came on this thread and immediately started to talk shit just because I don't worship super like you do. There's a lot of better things you could be doing with your time. Like finishing your eren x levi fanfiction on tumblr
