Yeah, although the Frieza saga was my favourite one, the fact it took about 20 episodes for him to transform was a little irritating. I did however think the manga series did it too quickly, a middle ground would have been nice! That was the only downside to the show in my opinion. The saiyan saga moved by a good pace, but half way through the Frieza one, it just dragged on. Not only with the transformations, but when Namek was supposed to explode in 5 minutes, that took like 15 episodes before it blew up. The entire Android, Cell, & Buu sagas were too slow and took forever before they got anywhere. Good show though. Still a favorite of mine.

Used to be obsessed with it. Had cards, Krazy Bonez, videos, games, posters, tazos, etc. And followed it religiously. Best anime ever.
Dragonball was alright, not as good. Seemed more aimed towards kids, but it was still alright. Never saw the end of DBZ or any of DBGT, though I am familiar with the story/characters through the games.

Dragonball Z was the only anime I could ever get into.
Yeah, great show. Love it.

And its half the price, which is a steal.

Do they swear, show all gore and blood from the japaneese series? It is called the "Remastered Version" where it does have all of the FUNimation voice overs redubbed with the same actors. The music is the from the original Japaneses version. The only downside is that 20% of the footage vertically is cut out (though this does not make an appreciable difference). However, it is compensated with 10% of additional footage added horizontally. There is also a total of 291 episodes as opposed to 276, with the original 15 being restored (mostly during the Saiyan Saga).

I remember downloading that stuff when I was younger (pre-youtube) and thinking it was the best stuff in the world. Got some more questions Is it HELL or HFIL? Any middle fingers?Swearing?Is it Hurcule or Mr. Satan?

I stopped watching it sometime in the Buu saga. Buu had to be the worst character ever. He just made up powers along the way. I kind of got back into it when Gohan started fighting him but then he just got absorbed and I was all like WTF. I was most into it during the Cell saga when I was a kid, but looking back it should have ended after Goku defeated Frieza. After that the show was just about flashy lights and transformations. Before the show had a direction with the Dragonballs, Goku discovering his past, finally becoming the Super Saiyan. But I liked it as a kid.
