Toriyama-sensei doesn't even like the anime that much to begin with let alone the butchered douchebaggery of the dubbed version.

Goku didn't die in GT. The show sucked him off so much, it was impossible to keep him in the world of the living, so he ascended beyond mortality.

This takes the cake. Not too long ago, a woman made the news for flipping out at a McDonald's that they weren't serving chicken nuggets yet and, among other things, threatening to....no, I don't want to spoil it. Suffice to say, watch this video.

Holy shit. That was intense. Hopefully she got the psychological help that she clearly needs.

Eh, she could probably use rehab more than anything. She was clearly high on something, or so I would like to think at least.

Well, she was ordered not to return to that specific McDonald's again. Beyond that, I'm not sure.

In any event, I've been waiting for someone to do some CGI alterations, like her actually going Super Saiyan, or instead of throwing a beer bottle through the window, doing a kamehameha through it.

"DBZ's plotline is so repetitive!"

And yes, this is a quote from a fan.
Is it possible to watch DBZ with epilepsy?

Violent, screaming and obsessing over something so insignificant? Yep she must be a Broli fan.

That video is dubbed over. The original has no sound in it.

Not fans, but I have see a lot of casual people who will say "People still like DBZ? I thought that show ended years ago". I get that a lot with people over the year and I do find it kinda annoying. I still see people say it today on Youtube comments and other websites. I remember in 2009 when I pick up my copy of RB, everyone was in line for Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 while I came in to pick up RB. The guy at Gamestop was like "Hello sir. Are you ready to pick up Modern Warfare 2 today!" and I was like "No thank you sir. I would like to buy Dragon Ball Raging Blast for the 360 please". The guy looked at me funny and one person behind me was like "Wow people still care for Dragon Ball?".

From what I've seen "the creator of x prefers the English dub of his work" or "The Japanese prefer the English dub" seems to be a common urban legend in a lot of anime fandoms.

^^Indeed, although apparently some of them are supposedly true such as the Japanese preferring Johnny Yong Bosch over Jun Fukuyama as Lelouch in Code Geass.

Mayuri Kurotsuchi wrote:"In this world, nothing perfect exists. It may be a cliche after all but it's the way things are. That's precisely why ordinary men pursue the concept of perfection, it's infatuation. But ultimately I have to ask myself "What is the true meaning of being perfect?" and the answer I came up with was nothing. Not one thing. The truth of the matter is I despise perfection! If something is truly perfect, that's IT! The bottom line becomes there is no room for imagination! No space for intelligence or ability or improvement! Do you understand? To men of science like us, perfection is a dead end, a condition of hopelessness. Always strive to be better than anything that came before you but not perfect! Scientist's agonize over the attempt to achieve perfection! That's the kind of creatures we are! We take joy in trying to exceed our grasp, in trying to reach for something that in the end, we have to admit may in fact be unreachable!"
