lol...err, sorry, just felt like laughing, i'll let u know why in a secOmniStrata wrote:The show's gay. It puts women down. All the "super" characters you hear about in DBZ are big UGLY men...bloodyfang wrote:there is still too much grunting and powering up in it.![]()
Now SHADOW SKILL, THAT'S a man's (women can love it too ^_^) fighting anime. Both men and women are badass, the show has a history that's quite detailed, and the martial arts in it are just royally DESIGNED for combat fans such as myself...
[btw, Elle is fuckin' HAWT sex0rs...]

by the way, i have shadowskill on dvd, i liked it, but to like it, i had to watch the entire thing to finally at the end find out why the heck they called it shadow skill, it's a pretty bad-ass anime, it gets my 2 thumbs up
i agree with ur comments on it, but i disagree with ur dbz comment
all the super characters in dbz are NOT big ugly men
one of the most powerful characters in dbz is the one and only person that goku will ever submit to...ChiChi (Mil in spanish, since chichi in spanish means boob)
whenever she wants something, she usually gets it, and she is also a master of the martial arts, in one of the sagas, she almost kills gohan (i won't say which, kinda a spoiler, yes, spoilers can exist even in dbz)
plus that's why goku falls for her in db, cause she can handle herself
almost the same is true for bulma, she a lot of times keeps vegeta in check, now that deserves some kind of award if anything
also, videl and gohan's daughter pan is 1/4 saiyan, so she is powerful, a powerhouse actually (breaks a test ur might machine when she's like a yr old)
i won't even say anything about android 18, except that she wups on vegeta for some episodes, lol
there's probably more, but that's enough i think

You're lying or ill-informed, because DBZ was never released on any home format until early 2003 when the first "Dragon Box" DVD boxset was released, marking the first point in Japanese history that DBZ TV series could be purchased in the country it originated from.

Well it was a HQ Raw, with the quality being the rough equivalent of a decent digisub in today's standards, all on VHS tape format. Either it was ripped from cable TV in Japan or elsewhere, like a laserdisc. I didnt really know where it came from but the quality was really good at that time so I didnt really care. In any case, it most likely a rip off Japanese TV, since i found these things in a Japanese store near my friend's house.VegettoEX wrote:Unless you're talking about DBZ movie 12...[AV] ChOjIn 69 wrote:There was a point in time where i actually possessed the master tapes of the part in the Majin Buu saga where the fusion between Vegita and Goku takes place in all of its laser disc ripped (DVDs weren't around back then), un-subbed raw japanese glory.

Possible Spoilers (Though it would seem you've all watched the show)
You guys are all overlooking the genius behind Dragonball Z. The show is real, as in it portrays the characters in a real way. When there's humor, its because the characters are real and being themselves. The perhaps the most important thing is the psychology in Dragonball and Dragonball Z and how it is true to reality. GT kinda loses it. In studying the characters as they mature and grow older, their behaviors are relevant to their environments and lifestyles. Thats truly the genius that creates the emotions and humor in the show.
Goku as a child had no restrictions and was never remprimanded by Gohan allowing him to grow up being very self secure. The only realization he has of his self is his power, and that derives from his natural need to be a protector.
Vegita on the other hand was raised with great expecations. He was to be a great warrior and so much was expected from him. He struggled with not being good enough, and the loss of his father made his heart even darker. Later, his upbringing is evident in his constant monologues regarding his own strength, especially in comparison to Goku's.
Much can be said about all the characters, but if your going to focus on just the fighting and powering up, your not seeing the real Dragonball Z. Would you expect someone to just go Super Saiyan for no reason out of the blue? Perhaps rather than watching the show on mute you should pay attention to some of the dialogue and understand why some of the fights are so long and some of the powering up takes so long. Not to mention the complete progression of the fighting in the series building toward the buu saga. This comes into play when differentiating war from battle. The buu saga is filled with many, many battles over a long war against the evil Buu. The fights are quick in resolve, which is the opposite of what you people were complaining about, but the ultimate fight was drawn out. Then you must consider that these are the strongest fighters in the universe. Would you expect a short anti-climactic apocalyptic battle? Personally, I feel the briefness of the movies take a bit away from the greatness. To have a saga focused on Brolli would have been amazing.
Anyways, I'm not trying to tell you what to feel or what to like, I'm just saying that there's a lot more to the show than most people realize.
