too many drugs are affecting their brains.
My bad…I thought I had the right link up.

ROFL Yeah Broly should’ve freaking died after getting SRK’d through his mid-section but NOOOOOOO :rolleyes:
At least Vegeta was taking that shit like a man and wasn’t being a punk ass. I give him props for all the times he stood up and what not…but that blast point blank in the face…Should have just stayed down after that lol.
I really don’t know…but I was a victim of doing that recently unfortunately. Weird as hell.
My favorite mindfuck scene in the entire series was in the beginning of the Cell Saga:
<paraphrasing/>
Krillin: Hey guys couldn’t we just like… search around for Dr.Gero before he completes Cell and win?
Z Fighters: STFU Krillin!!! You’re NOT gonna ruin this for us!!! Fuck You with your “Logic!!!” C’mon say that shit one more time… I dare ya!!! I triple dog dare ya!!! I swear to god…
awkward pause
Yeah so… it’ll take too long to find him with our super speed… let’s go train for years instead!
Krillin: Yeah let’s go!
As far as Goku having a love interest… it’s really all about the food. Even after that, Goku is a horrible, horrible husband and father.
And I’d recommend watching all of DB, skipping the Garlic Jr saga in Z, and stay far, far away from GT. You might get frustrated with the long drawn out stuff in Z though. There are episodes where there’s really only 5 minutes of actual new stuff while the rest consists of an a)stare down b)redundant flashbacks (maybe even stuff you’ve seen minutes before!) or c)regurgitated fighting sequences. Common shonen fare for an ongoing manga, I suppose.
And speaking of manga, anyone else holding out for the re-release next year? I really hope they don’t screw it up this time.
Finally, I’d also recommend Hokuto no Ken (shit is fucking brutal) and One Piece. One Piece gets a higher recommendation because it’s essentially the new Dragon Ball of this generation (literally and figuratively speaking). I’ll save that rant for the pretty much dead One Piece thread.

You might wanna try Yuyu Hakusho and of course Inuyasha if those aren’t 2 of the ones you’ve seen already. Inuyasha not your standard martial arts anime but it’s more girl-friendly than most others.
DB is focused less on fights than DBZ, though the fights tend to have a bit more technique- fewer giant ki blasts and more “this is my secret special move and/or strategy” stuff. Overall DB is something a bit more like One Piece etc, more of an adventure thing +fights which moved toward the DBZ direction over time, obviously.
Thanks for all the great responses. At the very least, I’ll give DBZ a chance since they’re now releasing it by the sagas at very reasonable costs. I watched a couple YouTube clips to get a feel for it and it didn’t seem like anything a female would take too kindly too, but then again that’s hard to tell from a few clips.
If you’re gonna check out DB you might wanna look into getting the last volume of Dragon Ball on DVD too. Contains the big Goku vs Piccolo fight (the second one in the series) which the series creator actually said was his favorite in either series IIRC.
Thought if you haven’t watched any DB/DBZ you might not care who the characters are.
Yep, Toriyama says that he liked the Goku vs. Piccolo fight the most, because it was his first-ever good vs. evil battle in Dragonball.
DB has some memorable characters like:
-Mercenary Tao
-General Blue
-Nam
-Akkuman(Devilman)
In fact in BT3 there is a “What if” storyline where he pwns Frieza and King Cold
omg
how come no one told me how wimpy Goku’s Japanese VA sounds
He’s supposed to sound like a child. Not a nasal surfer with constipation problems.
While I admit that his Funimation VA wasn’t perfect, he was damn sure better than the bitch they got for the Japanese voice. idk about you but I’d rather not have the incredibly muscular savior of the earth sound like he just stepped out of the recording booth for Rugrats.
This man wears pink, kills people with his tongue and his transportation is a tree trunk…Pimp material?
Tao was straight up ruthless. He went to a tailor to get a new outfit made (his old one got messed up in his fight against Goku) and instead of paying the man, he offered to kill somebody for him, free of charge. However, when the tailor refused his generous offer, he died by a finger-stabbing!
EDIT Oh, and let’s not forget how he forever walks around with the words “KILL YOU!” shamelessly emblazoned across his back.
The funny part is for all his badassness and ruthlessness, he gets owned by his own grenade being kicked back to him in the air.
