Traditional masculine archetypes and tons of comedic charm.
>>215554906We don't? Nobody in Mexico gives a shit about Super, Dr. Goku and Memeball is more popular than that shit.

Goku doesn't possess the one-sided, pretentious sense of justice found in American superheroes.He gets angry when his friends are hurt. He fights because, as a martial artist, he wants to be stronger than anyone else.That's something any child can understand perfectly well.
>>215554878it's the most basic power fantasy, while comic book super heroes of the west were busy being dramatic about their past or morals or simping after girls - DBZ was just about settling problems by training and fighting.
>>215555034>PlebbitGo back bitch.
>>215554949>>215555165You’re brown.
Fun fact: Dragonball, Naruto and the likes are almost completely unknown in Sweden. "Anime" to most people in Sweden pretty much means Studio Ghibli shit.
>>215555258How do you feel about Dragonball?
>>215554878It's still hilarious to me how Gohan has wild child hair at the start of the series but during the PTSD inducing brutal Namek arc he has a lame schoolboy bowl cut.Literally the opposite of what makes sense aesthetically.
>>215555377gag mangahis mom gave him a bowl cut before sending him away on a big trip
>>215555078Goku is actually my least favorite character in DBZ and Super, but the fact that there are plenty other characters to root for is what makes it such a great series.
>>215555459Chichi is ruining the poor kid's aura in front of his friends. You're supposed to look cool while you're getting scarred for life.
>>215554900my 5 year old son and 3 year old daughter love dragon ball. Granted we have about 100 episdes before we get to Z. The prefer digimon to pokemon as well, god bless em.

>>215554949Why are you lying? Super was huge here.
>>215556067retard
>>215556009ToP and Black Goku were better than Daima. Even fucking GT was more entertaining than Daima.
>>215554878Goku is just such a good character. He is gentle and strong, hard working, a family man, wants people to retain a pure essence no matter what life throws at them and always willing to forgive people believing he can change them by example. I think Goku is the key to the universal nature of this show.
>>215558460they made him too retarded in recent times. I don't think Goku was this dumb in the past, now he's just suicidally stupid and outright letting dangerous mass murderers live just for the sport of it. Yes he always wanted to let people live but not for sport, because he hoped that they would change their minds and get better. These days he lets Frieza live just so he has something to fight. Frieza probably kills millions of innocent people every time he gets let off but Goku acts like there's no problem.
>>215558271GT is fucking hilarious the animation is just lacking during the action scenes https://youtu.be/wd2G9oI-XMU?si=4-mIJqyL6HGwRBqh
>>215558614sorry wrong link lol https://youtu.be/XM83p-wnLBQ?si=gGOmUPTmH11id8xG
>>215558555yea I agree and not sure what the reasoning behind it is, maybe trying to lean into the japanese elements of the show?? Or maybe like with frieza theyre thinking of the marketing of things first then justifying it after. Frieza is never going to rehabilitate lol.
>>215555555checked
Japs makes their character white skinned even when they aren't whites, so they get the white audienceThey make their characters violent, so they get the non-white aduienceThey make their characters kiss each other, so they get the female audienceIs not that hard
>>215558730lots of japs have white skin theyre not all yellow. Like literally if you put their skin in photoshop sometimes theyre pale as a ghost. Sometimes. Not always obviously. And even in mexico there are white skinned women who are Mexican, not everyone is a racial stereotype.
>>215558614jesus christ that dub is awful
>>215558555>because he hoped that they would change their minds and get better.This isn't true at all.
>>215556009>>215556067There's in nothing interesting or memorable about Daima that justifies it being that high.
>>215558758huh? nah its good.
>>215554900>slopFuck you nigger this had soul and thousand upon thousand of hours poured into it you ignorant philistine
>>215555555Gotta check em all
>>215555258Sweden sucks
>>215554878The lesson is you should create things with soul and authenticity, even if it's not very original it will sell
For me it's Vegeta>aristocratic and prideful but actually earns the right to be so by striving to be the very best>when he's beat and shown to be inferior he doesn't just fall into a rut and accept his place but keeps trying to be better>ruthless but smart and is willing to set aside his ego when he recognizes he's outclassed and needs help>wants others to be powerful and is disgusted when they aren't trying to be the best they can be
>religionNot true for me, my buddy had to watch Veggietales
>>215558555>Yes he always wanted to let people live but not for sport, because he hoped that they would change their minds and get betterSorry but that's dub Goku. Jap Goku is a hotblooded Saiyan through and through, he lets Piccolo and Vegeta go because he would have liked more fights with them, them turning into good people was nice but it wasn't the goal.
>>215554878It was never popular across the Globe, you dumb mutt. It wasn't even that popular in Japan. USA and Brazil were only two hotbeds for that vomit. Pokemon is the first truly universal shonen.>>215554900This.>>215559170It's the very definition of slop. Absolutely cliched, primitively written, asspulls and no internal consistency. Every imaginable technique to cheapen the animation - stock footage, abundance of static frames, filler episodes with no narrative progression. Easily one of the worst examples of anime and animated products in general.
To his dying day Toriyama maintained that his only goal with the franchise was to entertain Japanese boys.The universal appeal of DBZ was completely coincidental and irrelevant to its creator.
childhood was gooning to c18growing up is understanding lady furiza is the best
>>215555191So what? You're retarded and we don't care.>>215555258So gay.>>215554906Because people in here are just fanatical about DBZ. They know Super was slop yet they ate it with joy because it was more DB content. I think even DB AF (the unofficial fan manga) was big as hell in here. I remember seeing entire Mugens made with AF characters kek.
the real question is why did things like GT get so much hate, but this new shit gets a pass? Ultra ego vegeta? Really? We are unironically hitting Sonic fanfiction levels of cringe and no one seems to mind. It's time for this series to end.
>>215561130Nigga, you just literally created a historical fanfiction for your delusions. DBZ literally created the shonen genre as we know it. People in Japan are obsessed with that shit, and you forgot about LATAM, too.
>>215561317>literallyYou're underage.
>>21556134128, but if I was underage the mogging would be even funnier lol

That's why I mentioned Brazil, you cretinous beast. It's the center of DBZ obsession of South America. Rest of the countries are nowhere near of a fandom.
>>215561355Never did, never will. Your are old.
>>215561422Always will. You are a faggot.
>>215561409>What is Hokuto no KenEssentially a seinen, dumb retard.>blah blah autistic screechingK.>That's why I mentioned Brazil, you cretinous beast. It's the center of DBZ obsession of South America. Rest of the countries are nowhere near of a fandom.You know absolutely nothing about what you're talking about. You're essentially creating a headcanon for no reason. México has much more DBZ fans than Brasil, lol. Man, you don't know shit about anything, and you're also seething and coping at an amazing rate; more than 9000! I would say.
The proper way to watch DBZ is Ocean dub until Frieza saga and then Funi dub for the rest of the series. Funi dub is the best version (and possibly the only time a dub is superior to the original.)Rock music works so much better than the original music and the dialogue is vastly improved.Youre either retarded or trolling if you think the awkward kai dialogue is better than>Does a machine like yourself ever experience fear?Dont respond if you disagree because youre 100% wrong>inb4 Amerimutt name callinghttps://youtu.be/hBq8UadbVc8?si=aYscZQ9YxBihIUnU
>>215561409>Juan Pisser is calling others brown
>>215561462Just go latin american dub; it's better than the japanese OG.>Rock music works so much better than the original music and the dialogue is vastly improved.Biggest american cope I ever saw.
>>215554878It’s machismo and the people who force diversity could never begin to understand that because they’re fags. If you can’t be a man you’re not going to appeal to any race it doesn’t matter who.
>>215561302>the real question is why did things like GT get so much hate, but this new shit gets a pass?Because GT is bad. GT has terrible execution of its ideas across the board. If it wasn't for videogames making stuff like SS4 Gogeta look cooler than GT itself did, then GT would be forgotten completely.
>>215554906Because the latin-america dub of DBZ is more faithful than the english dub. Super is a faithful dub in all languages. If you grew up with english dub of DBZ and go to super, it's going to feel different. While going from the latin-american dub into super, it's just more of the same.
Piccolo is the best character. Any other “opinion” is wrong
>>215555258I’d keep that fact to myself if I were you.
Dub tier list:Any american english dub: usually around 2/10. Raped the series. BIG GREEEN.Portuguese dub: 0/10; comedy gold.Latin american dub: 10/10; better than the original.Japanese voice acting: 8/10; it actually has a lot of mistakes and Goku's voice is weird.Spanish dub: 3/10; it's ass, but still better than the american "dub".Catalán dub: overrated as fuck by spaniards who had to take a painful choice between watching Meme Ball Z and Mid Ball Z, this one being just mid. A 4-5/10 depending on the episode.

>>215561641Will just leave this here...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mwl-2VT5T-khttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H634mlF4dT0Americans essentially watched DBZ Abridged: The Dub. Niggaz couldn't even care to translate the text accurately, and changed the ages, personalities and stories of the characters for no reason other than show the japanese people how "alpha as fuck" american culture is, or something. Their DBZ dubs are also censored as shit: there is not one american dub that's uncensored.
>>215561130I hate DBZ but you are delusional.
>>215555769This, so sick of Japanese irony poisoning
Because Goku is racially ambiguous enough to be Asian, White, or Latino and Blacks love Piccolo and Pikkon
DB fags really have to stop pretending their show was anything else other than random people beating the shit out eachother. Thats why it was popular worldwide, random people with wacky hairdstyles beating eachother up is a premise that works everywhere, its not some deep masterwork, its just muscly guys finding excuses to beat eachother. Its lowest common denominator shit
>>215562488Plenty of shows out there has violence in them, you're being reductive by acting like that's DB's only appeal.
Kamehameha era goku with piccolo as the main antagonist is considered the peak shounen experience in my country the Greece
rap alone is vastly more popular than dragon balljaps couldn't even have the same cultural influence as black americans
>>215561866the PEAK of japanese humor
