Honestly based

Imagine Gohan holding back because its his dad and getting clobbered for his hesitance
>>
>>221123870
Z should've ended with Cell. Buu arc provided nothing for the story at all besides the retarded ssj3 sonic the hedgehog transformation, power scaling vegeta even deeper into the jobber trashbin, and going all-in with making every Z fighter completely worthless compared to Goku. Gohan had a brief redemption from annoying nerd to being on Goku's level with his deus ex machina power up before immediately jobbing in a deeply unsatisfying way. The peak of the arc was undoubtedly Vegito which was an amazing fight, before they of course ruined it by turning it into some retarded adventure through Buu's digestive tract.
>>
>>221123902
>Imagine Gohan holding back because its his dad and getting clobbered for his hesitance
that would be pathetic considering the cell saga ending in part was about Gohan learning to not hold back, that would just be a regression in character growth
plus he fought Goku's body when he was swapped with Capt. Ginyu on Namek without issue.
>>
>>221123902
Goku Black should've been Goku if he never hit his head as a child. They didn't have the balls for it to actually be him, so of course they rolled with it just being his body possessed. That was such a wasted opportunity. They could've still had a feel-good ending by Gohan and the gang buckbreaking him into being good or whatever
>>
>>221124000
Fair enough. How would you keep it fresh then?
>>
>>221124013
for me dbz ends with the cell saga. gohan is the earths new mightiest hero, goku had a little otherworld tourney for ~10 eps after cell ends and he is awarded special training with the grand kai along with piccaron or w/e that piccolo ripoffs name is. there's no need to keep going, arcs completed.
dbz wasn't about goku, his show was dragonball.
dbz was about gohan, vegeta and somewhat piccolo and their character growth.
goku doesn't change at all from the start, he's just a character that only engages in combat for the sport of it and once he sees that he's superior he loses interest.

he's that strong. saiyan pride n shiet. dragonball and z are incredible shows. GT is bad but consistent while super goes from irredeemably, insulting bad to pretty cool repeatedly, making for overall the worst of the series. while I enjoy all of z, there is a point during the android saga when bulma suggests that they just go blow up dr geros lab and prevent the androids from being created. goku says no because he wants to fight them, thus begins the flanderization of his character and transition to extremely dangerous retard who is worse than villains

>>221123970
No, it should have ended at Frieza. Cell saga was already retarded. A human scientist being able to build robots stronger than Frieza and Super Saiyan Goku was retarded. There being multiple super saiyans at the same time was already retarded i the first place, it was supposed to be ultra rare. Vegeta marrying Bulma was retarded. Toriyama was way too retarded to write a goddamn time travel story. And this is where the power level scaling goes full retard as well, it was already getting out of hand before but at least they were in space, in the Cell saga it makes no fucking sense that they can fight at full power on the surface of the Earth without blowing it up.
>>
>>221123970
It’s completely lost in hindsight , as Cell now just seems like another typical DBZ villain with multiple forms and otherwise nothing special about him

But the entire point of the character at first was that he was made from the cells of literally everyone in DB history. He’d have Friezas strength, Piccolos regen, gokus attacks, etc etc hence the ability to do things like solar flare. This was supposed to make him the perfect composite villain to end the series on

While Namek saga was peak DBZ, you can’t deny how perfect a note the Cell saga ended things on. Especially passing the torch to Gohan and completing Gohans arc which was foreshadowed from the very first episode he was introduced

The Buu saga did cool things, especially at the beginning with the martial arts tournament and mystery around Shin, Babidi, etc but god damn did that saga just meander non stop with one fakeout after another (gotenks, ultimate Gohan, gogeta, and still kept chugging along). I still don’t know how that arc decided to end with another Goku asspull , considering the moment fusion was introduced you just knew it would eventually build to a Goku/Vegeta moment that sadly never even delivered

What’s funny is even as a 10 year old or whatever watching for the first time, before online discussions of power levels was even a thing, i remember thinking how dumb an asspull it was for Gero to build androids (from humans no less) that were stronger than Frieza


At least the androids that could absorb power was a unique ability that made sense in universe. But it quickly became nonsensical scaling

I'd go further beyond and say the point of Cell was to be the manifestation of all of their fuckups.
Krillin, Piccolo, the androids, Vegeta, Trunks, Goku. All of their fuckups made Cell possible and as powerful as he ended up being. It was up to Gohan to put him down in the end.

Vegeta has MASSIVE tard rage to the point that ALL he was thinking about was beating the shit out of Goku. You can tell it was painful for him to reject Babidi's command and it was probably only possible because he was completely 150% laser focused on his beef, and also probably the fact he was putting out more power at that moment than even the(at that time) head gods of the DB universe. That level of power output is insane and probably overloaded any magic that Babidi had going on. It was also cool as fuck. The Goku vs Vegeta fight in the Buu saga is probably the only good part of the entire saga that isn't completely shit on by later events

This. Cell is the manifestation of everything that had happened in DB up to that point, and it's amazing that it all comes to a head with a tournament fight which is sorta DB's bread and butter. It also finally passes the torch to Gohan which was a long time coming. On top of that its also an arc where we see a bunch of characters surpassing their limits, even that of super Saiyan, but it doesn't get to crazy. Everyone is still just using SS and not all these extra crazy forms like 2, 3 or 4 or whatever. Its just a fully fleshing out of the SS form which feels much better to the story as how everyone lowers up feels way more unique and feels like a fully fleshing out and mastery of the form. Gohan turning SS2 wasnt even something anyone registered as a "thing" because at that point it feels like a form unique to him and his rage he has had for the entire series up to that point. Like a perfect culmination for him becoming his own. The fact that everyone just got SS2 tacitly later on, while cool, massively downplays everything especially when you chuck SS3 into the ring. That doesn't even touch how SS3 feels like one of the imperfect upgrades to SS that Goku himself rejected earlier. SS3 is basically SS2 grade 2 or something and is extremely wasteful as a form

Its kinda an interesting thought that Vegeta may have been stronger than Goku under normal circumstances. Goku had a dead body that had way more endurance than normal which is the only reason he unlocked super saiyan 3 in the first place and the only reason he could use the form for longer than a brief moment at all. Despite this Vegeta is able to fight on par with him. Had Vegeta been dead and been training he probably would have unlocked super saiyan 3 as well and maybe would have been stronger than Goku. Nobody really points this out that Goku was way more durable during their fight as SS2s

>>221126085
SSJ3 takes a lot of energy to use and at that point Goku hadn't mastered it yet
There is a legitimate argument that yes, Goku would have been significantly more powerful than Vegeta, but he might not have been able to secure the win before he's burned through too much energy
This is basically what happens in Resurrection F btw - Golden Frieza is actually more powerful than Blue Goku, but it doesn't matter because he burns through it way faster than Goku does (then the bullshit laser happens lmao)
>>
>>221125660
Maybe it's the worst written arc, but considering how much iconic stuff came from it e.g. Super Saiyan 3, Vegito, Majin Buu, Majin Vegeta, Ultimate Gohan, Universal Spirit Bomb etc. you just can't hate it. Most of the things I associated with the series before I was familiar with it came from the Buu Saga. It's just too kino.

Cell-saga had exactly two good fights: first Goku vs Cell fight on the arena and the last Cell vs Gohan fight.
Buu-saga had all of the tournament, Majin Vegeta vs Goku and many others.
That said, I wish Toriyama hadn't gone so far with the power level bullshit even in DB (destroying the moon).
DB still has the best fights in the series.

Majin Vegeta's head tilt during that tournament was so fucking cool as a kid but as an adult you realize his character literally ruined the whole show. Him being super strong willed and repeatedly showing himself to be a huge pussy is so stupid.

Toriyama must have had a fight with his wife when drawing that chapter, there was no reason for that fight to be so brutal and drawn out, at least do something interesting with Videl after a massacre like that. It would've been fine if she actually did have PTSD following that.

that knee to the face was one of the moments where the anime censored something(like Gohan kicking the Cell Jrs into blue smoke), in the manga that knee knocked out her teeth.

you do understand the word "equal", right?

>>221128418
Aside from Jobgeta cheap-shotting Goku, there was no winner.
>>
>>221128241
It's not the last thing - it's probably the second thing. He gets overconfident and sadistic when he's winning and starts crying and yelling that its hopeless as soon as the villain (who he allowed to power up) powers up. Even Yamcha has never been shown groveling for mercy or crying.

Vegeta's whole hard work and training thing is so dumb in hindsight too considering he's all about status and genes.
