Is-is it bad that I liked this video more? :shifty:

Seriously, I actually laughed out loud.

"Gregory's a jerk!"

"Power level's are nonsense!"

"The English dub tries to turn Goku into Superman!"

'Freeza's voice confuses me...' That had me in stitches.

I know some of ScrewAttack's staff are DBZ fans but you can tell they put more effort into the 'hate' video. Most of the 'love' reasons pander to memes and nostalgia, while the 'hate' reasons mostly address genuine problems with the series. I doubt Stuttering Craig wrote the script for either as given he's in his mid-30s he wouldn't have grown up with it the same way Nervous Nick did.

It's easier to pick out the "genuine" flaws with DBZ than it is to quantify why it's good. It's good just because we like it. That's the same with most things, though, to be honest.

While I agree with the "Why We Hate DBZ" video they missed out a great opportunity to mention DBZ's original score in the "Why We Love DBZ" but that's sorta fixed on the next one (Kikuchi BGM).
