For some reason, I still haven't watched Dragon Ball...at all.
I want to get the blue bricks, but it'll be a while before their prices go down.
Maybe, I'll wait so long for the prices to go down, that the Dragon Ball Dragon Box will be released.

You missed out on a RightStuf sale where you would have gotten the entire series for ~150 dollars. There's ~30 episodes in each set, and with that discount, you would have paid a dollar an episode, more or less.

That's okay, I live in Europe, and I'm not sure whether Rightstuf deliver to Europe.
Also, on Amazon.co.uk, the sets are around 22 pounds. So either way, its under 150 fr all of them.
The GT (Green bricks) are around 15 pound each, so I might wait until the Blue bricks are also around this price.

You can also get the manga (the corresponding part to the Dragon Ball anime).

The Dragon Ball Vizbigs are cheap and great and they have the same story as the Dragon Ball anime (except for filler).

You can buy them from bookdepository.uk and the like.

Like the others have said, the adventure is what really is great to me.
Yeah, same with me

I've had just about enough of this. Is there anything of substance anyone has to say?

Yeah, I'm always interested in "Is Dragon Ball boring compared to its sequels?" threads. I'd prefer everyone to just get back to the topic rather than locking it.

Going back to topic, here's something I said to a bunch of douches who thought FUNimation doesn't get any sales from Dragon Ball and they think the art is silly and overall stupid:

"Who wants it? The ones who enjoys everything Dragon Ball for non-superficial reasons and they don't act and deny anything before DBZ.

In other words, the real Dragon Ball fans!

You don't like? Others do like it.

You don't acknowledge it? Others do acknowledge it.

You think it's stupid? Others do not think it's stupid.

You do not enjoy it? Others do enjoy it.

You refuse the idea of the first part? Others do not refuse it.

You're not going to watch it? Others will keep watching it over and over again.

liked it or not, that's how it started. And if you really do like Dragon Ball, you better watch because it doesn't deserve to be skipped.

And if you won't do that, you prove that you are watching the show for superficial reasons that goes nothing beyond the fighting and you don't care about the story that made the whole thing."

I agree. People are free to like what they like, but this whole topic makes me regret.

Regret that Toei ever relaunched with a Z.
Regret that FUNimation skipped over most of the first series entirely.
Regret that Kai skipped over the first series entirely.

It's honestly really quite irritating. I do wish Toei had never grown that weird hair on their asses that bizarrely made them want to separate one series into two. Maybe we wouldn't be having this discussion if they hadn't.
Do you follow the most comprehensive and entertaining Dragon Ball analysis series on YouTube? If you do, you're smart and awesome and fairly attractive. If not, see what all the fuss is about without even having to leave Kanzenshuu:

Well, it's just a matter of opinion
