>Why yes, I'm a huge Dragon Ball Z fan! I've watched the whole Abridget series!Why does this happen so often?
>>287666622Lots of people don't actually like anime, they just like the idea of it.
>>287666622Abridged.I’ve never seen that happen.
>>287666622a lot of "people" consume anime through shorts and poorly trimmed scenes on youtube or tiktok
>>287666622Who does 18 like again?
>>287666622why are you making up fictional scenarios to get mad at?
>watch openings and endings>watch lore explanation videos>watch hype fight compilations>watch mojo top 10 most shocking moments compilationFinally it's time to start watching the anime.
>>287667151i sometimes start watching an anime after seeing a massive influx of porn from my booru queries
>>287667112thats basicly the entire website
>>287666622does the dialog even matter that much in dragonball?
>>287667151kek
DBA is much closer to DBS than DBZ
Abridge is Dragon Ball tier humor for Z. Which on it's own tells the story beats just fine. It's like Ghost Stories but meta about it's source material instead of being a completely different kind of showso there is still value in watching the original or not
>>287667398I used to do this too but now most art on boorus is from gacha games, at least back then it was only fate and kancolle
>>287667112I'm sure it exists but only in the sense that theirs enough people that statistically any person that could exist does exist
>>287666622Manga >>> Abridged > ZI don't make the rules
>>287666622always does?
Does it count if I read it in my native language fully and non-Z in Japanese?Anime? No, I hate anime
Team Three Star!
>>287666633they don't like the idea of it either, they just like being part of a large community
Because we live in a clown world where people base their opinions on something off the word of e-celebs.
>>287666622>loved the anime as a child but also disliked the copious amount of filler>abridged largely fixes that so i watch that instead of the OG>also have some favorite filler episodes that i rewatchyou'd be retarded to rewatch 30 episodes of frieza and goku fighting for "5 more minutes" while the rest of the gang is sitting in some random forest on earthalso, suffering through the filler doesnt make you a bigger fan than abrdiged watchers, it just makes you autistic
>>287671650>what is dbz kairetard you don't know shit
>>287671851>kai>terrible 16:9 AR>censorship>badly redrawn/updated animationswhy would you watch kai over abridged?
>>287671985please kill yourself
>>287667398This was me in 2008.Picrel is why I watched TTGL.
>Watch an iconic scene from the anime on Youtube>look at comments>top 10 results are all quoting abridged jokes
>>287674207>reddittube
>>287674207some of those attempts at comedy aged worse than milk, similar to how chan humor has changes since the 00s
>>287674207youtube is just tiktok now
>posting in thread for people who are allergic to fun.
>>287674822Your "fun" is wrong and bad.
>>287666690Vegeta
>>287668431I feel like you'd miss most of the jokes if you didn't watch the source material. Abridged has a lot of jokes that rely on watching/reading DB and being part of the community
>>287674042I wanna fuck Peach so much, bros.
>>287676300Yeah she likes to torture his balls for fun.
I love Lazuli

>>287666622>Why yes, I'm a huge Dragon Ball Z fan! I've never watched the Abridged series!Kneel
Hell yeah we DBZ fans love fanfiction more than canon
>>287676972Why did she save Trunks?
>>287677003>There, Goku. Just like you asked.
>>287682638
>>287666622Americans.>>287667112>>287668463Dragon Ball online spaces are fucking poisoned. I guarantee you there are a LOT of Abridgedfags. Sometimes as explicit as OP's post, sometimes less so (they'll just reiterate headcanons based on Abridged). Very very cancerous.>>287667511Kind of, honestly. Dragon Ball actually doesn't spend that much time on fights, and Toriyama's dialogues are quite good.
