Who says you'd have to watch it...? It's your choice... And what's wrong with 45 year old people watching Dragonball, anyway?

I think Toriyama end the series nicely, and I don't see any major point to continue it. DB Kai is decent, but I wish DB Kai was a series of movies that were remakes of the sagas that happens in the series. It could have been like the Rebuild series was for Evangelion.

Too many series go on for too long. I'm glad Dragonball ended where it did.
The series doesn't start with the arrival of Raditz. Stop being lazy and watch Dragonball.

A movie every couple of years would be nice.
Oh, you think the Grand Tour is your ally, you merely stepped into the Grand Tour. I was born in it, moulded by it. I didn’t see the Super until I was already a man; by then, it was nothing to me but blinding!

Kind of like the yearly Lupin the 3rd TV specials? I could see that. Side stories ala Shonen Jump Special or perhaps a retelling of certain story arcs?
A Dragon Ball/Urusei Yatsura crossover would be awesome.
Having Toshio Furukawa balance between Piccolo and Ataru would be hilarious.

I could go for more humorous Jump Tour side stories. :3

I was hoping they'd do one this year because of how successful Kai has been...I'm still hoping for something before Kai's TV run ends. >_>
