As a former DBZ fan i'd like to say that this show is very deceiving, for some people growing up as a kid (i am one of them) as long as there were "hype" fight scenes and power ups it was considered a great anime but when your a young adult you have do the painstaking task of seeing past your personal biases and break down what you are watching. re watching a bit of DBZ i have come to realize that this show's plot simply consists of antagonists who want to destroy the world (cause their evil) protagonists shooting beams at antagonists with a clash lasting for 3 episodes coupled with the power ups lasting equally as long and the bleak characters and their appalling character development.
In my opinion the only decent arc in this series was the majin buu arc, the villain was memorable and i could stomach some of the fight scenes and needless screams.
