Oh man, it seems like everything in both forms. I shutter just thinking about all this... I have all three series including TV specials, all 17 movies, all 42 tankoubon, all 34 kanzenban, all 20 film comics, just about every guide book you can think of, etc. Maybe I should stop collecting this stuff? :oops:

Dragon Ball: Episodes 1-62. Blue bricks.
DBZ: Episodes 1-3, 118-120, 250-253, 257-262, 288-291. Movies 4(?), 6, and 13. The various triple-digit episodes and Movies 4 and 6 are dub-only VHS. Movie 4 has a "?" by it because I don't remember if I threw it out while moving, since it's VHS, not a great movie, and dub-only. I may be confusing it with Pokemon Movie 4, though, which I threw out, along with the first three, for similar reasons. Episodes 1-3 are the red and black super hardcore Ultimate Uncut release, and Movie 13 is the DVD single that apparently looked like ass. I don't remember.
DBGT: The TV Special single disc. I sure hope I didn't throw it out, as I'm not sure if the full version of "Step Into The Grand Tour" is included during the credits of the dub on the green bricks I may pick up. It's probably not, but the English version of "Don't you see!", which I guess isn't a bad alternative... but it was the full rap...

So... 81 episodes scattered throughout multiple series, three(possibly two) movies, and a special. That can't be a huge percentage of the whole thing, especially with Kai continually coming out.

All I really own nowadays are the 2 domestic Dragon Boxes and all of the Viz manga. I dunno if I should count my DB Evolution Blu Ray :P

I used to own the majority of the funi singles and the movies dragon box, but I sold those a long time ago.

I own all of the Viz tankobon style graphic novels for the manga, Madman's 2 collections that make up the entire Dragon Ball series, all of the orange bricks for Dragon Ball Z (and the first 2 English Dragon Boxes) and both of the GT bricks. I also have English releases of all of the movies, except for that first Dragon Ball one that wasn't dubbed. What I don't have are the Trunks special, Bardock special and Jump special.

My copies of The Dead Zone, World's Strongest and Tree of Might are the old Pioneer ones, which were probably the first Dragon Ball DVDs I ever owned.

Dragonball-
#1-13- Kidmark dubbed vhs
#1-13- subtitled from internets. Loooong story*
#14-16- one really random FUNi uncut dubbed vhs I have no idea why I ever bought
#14-153 FUNi two-disk dvd

DBZ-
#1-53- Pioneer dubbed dvd singles
#1-42- FUNI Dragonbox 1 (number two should be coming for my birthday on the 20th)
#25-27- one dirty lying Ultimate Uncut dvd make me think I'm finally going to get to see Pic's death in Japanese and dick me over, now will you :evil: ... I coulda goddamn strangled somebody when it hopped merrily back to the menu.
#64-66 + "Gohan Attacks" (number unlisted)- FUNi uncut dubbed vhs
#99-102- ...... FUNI edited dubbed vhs ohgodwhy
#103-150- FUNi uncut dubbed vhs
#53-291- FUNi dvd singles

Movies-
-DB-
#1- Kidmark dubbed vhs
#2- FUNi uncut dubbed vhs
#2-4- FUNi dvd singles
-DBZ-
#1-2- Pioneer dubbed vhs
#1-3- Pioneer dvds
#4-13- FUNi dvd singles

Specials (and random shit)-
Trunks- FUNi dvd single
Burdock- FUNi dvd single
Safety videos- Internets
Ossu!- Internets until otherwise available in the US
Attack of the Sayiajin- Internets

GT doesn't count because I loathe it ^^

So on the whole, not so bad. I finished collecting the last of the FUNi singles long after we realized we were getting the DBox because I liked them and already had most of them, so I don't really consider that a loss. The only part I'll be getting burned on are all those VHS (cept the first two DBZ movies because I like those tapes) and the stupid single UUE I picked up.

EDIT- oh, and to answer the question- yes, I will have the entire thing when I get my second DBox and whatever material in it that was cut out of my last few Pioneer singles. Booyah.

*So I was going to visit a friend and wanted to show her the beginning of Dragonball in Japanese. The plan was to buy the first DB season set and we'd watch from that, so like a good little supporting consumer I went and ordered it off Amazon. Unfortunately some moron ships me the first DBZ season set two days before I'm suppose to leave *twitch* Thoroughly out of time and having put way too much effort into this crap I consult the internets to solve this problem. I'd already bought the damn things anyway years before >_> I'll finally be able to pick these up the right way when we get FUNi DB Dboxes[/endrant]

*Fortuneteller Baba Saga*
*Tenshinhan Saga
*Piccolo Jr. Saga Part 1
*Dragon Ball Movie Box: Sleeping Princess in Devil's Castle, Mystical Adventure, and Path to Power

I own all of the 17 movies, all 3 T.V Specials and all of Dragon Ball GT in green box set form.

I don't however own any of Z or the original Dragon Ball because I just don't have the money and there are nine sets to buy. I don't mind because the movies are just like the T.V series only shorter and I own all the manga. :P

The only one I have the entire series of is Dragon Ball GT in the form of the Dragon Box.

DB and DBZ have always been a challenge for me. The Japanese Dragon Boxes come out, I don't have money. The DB box sets come out, I have money when they're out of print and missing a set of episodes. DBZ gets released in all sorts of singles and sets, I have the money and get what I can. Dragon Boxes come out, I'm flat broke! ;_;

Dragon Ball:
-Season 1 Blue Brick
-2 Disc Sets 4-7,9.1
-Movies 2-4 (3-pack)

Dragon Ball Z:
-Dragon Box Z 1
-All nine orange bricks
-Various singles (including TV specials and some movies)
-All seven double/triple feature sets

Dragon Ball GT:
-Both lime-green bricks
-All singles + TV special disc
GT is underrated and the International Channel will always be my favorite channel for foreign programming. I still miss it.

As an anime? Nope. I probably won't own the entire anime from the beginning of Dragonball to the end of Dragonball Z for a long time... if ever!

As a manga, on the other hand, yes! Twice over, in fact! I have the 42 VIZ graphic novels and the 42 Japanese tankoubon. Really, that's all I need! I would like to own the kanzenban but it's not a necessity at this point.

I do plan on collecting all the domestic releases of the Dragonbox and Dragonball Kai, though.

But I can't, that's how life is. Time is a bitch. The party is over. Kageyama, Kikuchi, and Maeda are off the sauce now; Yanami almost OD'd; Yamamoto got arrested; Toriyama's not going to light trash cans on fire and hang from the chandelier anymore. We can't get the band back together, and even if we could, everyone's either old, in poor health, or calmed way the fuck down. Best we're going to get, and are getting, is a party that's almost entirely devoid of the magic that made the original one so awesome that we even want more.

1) Dragon Ball Season 1 (Episodes 1-30?)
2) Dragon Ball Z Seasons 1-9 (Episodes 1-291)
3) Dragon Ball Z Double Features 1-7 (Both TV Specials, all 13 movies)
4) Dragon Ball GT Season 1 (Episodes 1-32)

So I have at least 30 episodes from each series :P

That's why it took me over ten years to get the entire anime. Had quite a bit of time inbetween jobs, so couldn't buy like I wanted to. Was also why it took me a bit to get all of DB's sister series YYH. Will admit the experience and seeing most guys of my age group have jobs left me a little cynical about the fanbase of my age group. That's why when guys were on here who are about 25+ were complaining about the post season 2 season sets, I shook my head and replied they should've gotten the older version years ago.
