Dragonball is a huge part of my life and my friends know it too..
I have talked about Dragonball with my friends a lot and got many non anime fans interested in Dragonball because of this..
Yes, with my
formal colleagues Dragonball discussion is not even a question..
But I am pretty open about my love for Dragonball overall

I'm pretty open about it. Since most of my friends only know of the franchise through small amounts of watching Z over the years, one thing I like doing is bringing up the weirder stuff from the original series(Goku sending a rabbit to the moon, Roshi using Krillin's head as a fake moon to turn a man-wolf back into a man after he blew up the moon, etc.). That always gets a laugh or two.
The point of Dragon Ball is to enjoy it. Never lose sight of that.

Like others in this thread I don't deny it, I wouldn't bring it up to people who clealy have no interest but I'd gladly talk about it if asked, or someone else brought it up and perhaps enlighten them with my knowledge

.
I've never been one of those people who when they got to their late teens or later said "Oh, I shouldn't have been into that stuff. I'm more into mature shit now". If people my age can like Adventure Time, South Park, or My Little Pony I can like my Dragon Ball damn it

.
I currently only know one other person who follows Super but I could see more of my friends following suit next year when the dub comes out.

Well when I was younger (teenage years) I tried to hide my love for Dragon Ball, Power Rangers and other anime. Now I'm 23 and I've realised that almost every guy around my age here in Denmark, actually do like Dragon Ball. Now I don't hide any of that anymore.

I am, however I don't have anyone to talk about DB with in real life so there isn't really a reason for me to be open about it.

I have a bright orange and blue Dragon Ball hoodie
just a few weeks ago I talked to some dude at a Best Buy about Super because he noticed the hoodie and asked if I was watching it
