i seriously don't care how played out dbz is, its still the best for me. my alltime favorite characters are Zarbon and Dodoria. I'm making MV's of them and putting them up. you guys should be able to watch my vids if you do a quick search of "zarbon."

go to gamefaqs.com for cheats and secrets for BT.

i finished my second Namek Saga Dedication video. I put Zarbon, Dodoria, Cui, Frieza, King Cold, The Ginyu Force, Nappa, and Raditz into the vid. It's one of my favorite mv's. I also used very cool transitions from Budokai Tenkaichi and the show to make the characters seem lively. Check it out. My two vids are called "Zarbon, Loyal Henchman" and "Zarbon's Sweet Dreams" by the way.

GT also made Vegeta useless. in DBZ, you got to his progression from an angry, power-hungry villain into a caring, if stern, family man. in GT, he's just kinda... there. all he does is get his owned by whatever bad guy. and the fact that Gogeta didn't kill the dragon kinda added to Vegeta's uselessness. in DBZ, he was one of the most deeply developed and important characters to the series. he only had small, bit parts in GT. then the fact that the dragon was killed by a spirit bomb officially made the attack waaaaaaaay overused. using Gogeta to kill him off would have served more of a purpose, both story-wise and in the entertainment factor.

if you can't tell, i'm a bit of a Vegeta junky...

I don't know if anyone else realized this but have you noticed that DBZ could of ended the buu saga so many different times. It felt like they just kept dragging it on for the fact people were willing to watch it. I'll go ahead and name the times I though it would of ended well.

1st - SSJ2 Vegeta self destructing and sacraficing himself. I mean that would have been a great ending for DBZ. Vegeta finnally looking past his pride enough to worry so much for his family and friends that he is willing to sacrafice his life for them. Not to mention you don't have ssj3 and ssj4. ssj2 would of sufficed as the highest level.

2nd- SSJ3 Goku. He could of literally beat the living s*** out of fat buu and ended it all with no pain or anguish of continuing. Again the ultimate form would of been there and no more of anything else that was mind numbing. Not to mention it would of been his last great act for everyone.

3rd - Kaioshin Gohan. Again Gohan reaching a level so high and saving the world by destroying yet another enemy would of been good. It would be cool, you could say it ended there with Gohan being the new protector of earth.

4th - Vegeto. He was strong enough and the perfect bada**. I wouldn't of minded it ending with just Vegeto destroying him in one last great power struggle.

Did anyone else notice these things. Personally I would of loved seeing the series end with Vegeta sacraficing himself to kill Fat buu. I mean it would the best ending for the series as a whole because everyone that could do something tried and the last person you ever expected to go ahead and think of others actually did and performed a great and noble act.

I just relized what the "z" in dragonball z is for, its to make the name look like "dagonballs" maybe thats why AT- added the "z" to the name, cuz there are 7 DB's so why not make the name dragonballs? because that sounds perverted, instead make it sound kewl so he added the "z" I just realized that.....



and by the way, ending it with goku doing the ssj3 thing would'a ben awesome, and the gogeta beating the omega dragon would been the sh** but sadly I guess the GT guys were either looking to piss off some hard-core fans, or they were trying at a quik-buck


my summarie?


dragonball GT= sucks A**, but its ok if your into that kind of shity anime

dragonball Z= RULZ I'm a BIG FAN OH THIS'N

dragonball= I love the manga to this one, awesome stuff


well thats my 2 cents

is it just me or did bulma get especially annoying in gt? i didnt care for the way vegeta achived his ss4 status from bulmas ray. it would have been better if they went another way with that. i aslo agree that vegeta didnt play a big enough part in gt. it just dosnt compare to dbz.

Broly

Postby Hell-Bringer » Wed Jan 11, 2006 5:26 pm

Though it is no longer my favorite, DBZ holds a special place in my heart, got me into anime and i still watch the movies when i can. and my all time Favorite anime character is Broly, not that shitty 3rd broly movie, but more the 1st one, the 2nd was good but all Broly really said the whole time was Kakorot lmao. Anyways yeah just had to throw in my Broly fandom there :wink: . And i agree that GT sucked dragonballs (insert corny laughter) and personally i'd have liked to have seen SS3 Goku(my favorite SS form) end the battle with buu. :twisted:

i think that vegeta's sacrifice should have ended the buu saga. with buu surviving it, it did more to tarnish vegeta's selfless and noble deed than to enchance buu's reputation as invincible. it would have been nice if just ONCE vegeta could have saved the day and destroyed the super villan without and hint of goku's help. a fight purely from vegeta.

well that may be true, but from my point of view, the buu saga is the best part of all the DBZ series, beside that is the one that has more episodes and more intensity in the fights, specialy in the loooooooooooooooooong final fight with buu, where I think the most random part was where Mr. Satan saves Vegeta is life :? (poor vegeta is pride).

DBZ is one of my favourite animes, I have watched it like 50 times and I still don`t get bored :shock: (strange, isn`t it?). But I agree that dragonball GT sucks, thats all, I saw it one time and I get dissapointed :(

Okay, I'll admit I used to really be into dbz, and it had its moments.

But I truely have moved on now...looking at the anime I've seen after my dbz phase, I realised how other anime had so much more to offer, and the huge flaws that can be found in dbz...but like i said it had its moments.

To be honest, I dont think dbz shouldn't have gone past the Cell Saga. The saga really had me hooked, fleshing out the whole super sayain aspect.

Memorable moments:

SSJ Trunks vs. Frieza/King Cold/SSJ Goku
SSJ Vegeta and SSJ Trunks getting whooped by Android 18 & 17 :shock:
Androide 18 kissing krillin!! :lol:
Piccolo Super Namek! 8-) (The strongest he'll ever be)
Ascended SSJ Vegeta getting whopped by Perfect Cell :twisted:
Ascended SSJ Trunks vs. Perfect Cell

Goku vs. Perfect Cell :wink: (with the build up, the length, the attacks used..one of the better battles u'll see in the entire dbz series)

GOHAN SSJ 2! Gohan one-handed Kamehameha!!! :shock: :D
I mean c'mon one handed people! 8-)

I aslo like how ALL the dbz warriors played a part in the end and not resorted to be useless spectators.

With the sacrifice of Goku (and what was planned to be a continual death).. :cry:
Gohan stepping up to takeover his father's role as hero...
Veggeta's acknowledgements of his son Trunks...
And Trunks return to save the future...

It would have been an extremely fitting closure to the series :wink: :roll:
