Which saga are you watching/reading now?

Post by Kingdom Heartless » Fri Jul 16, 2010 3:14 am

For those of you who are watch, rewatching, reading or re-reading the series currently, what saga are you currently on.

I've gone back to the start, and I'm currently up to Red Ribbon Saga of the anime.

I'm just past the filler parts, and I'm now nearing Muscle Tower.

I enjoy the filler at the start to be honest.... I love the scenes with Goku and Chi-Chi..... like despite how oblivious he is, he's enjoying spending time with her, even sharing his food. It's not sappy or romantic, it's just inocent and sweet.

I jump around the series all the time, watching random strings of episodes while I eat breakfast, etc.

But I've also been taking my girlfriend through it from episode one, and we're currently at the start of the Red Ribbon arc as well. The Pilaf/Gyuumao/Red Ribbon stuff at the beginning is some of my favorite filler of all time.

I'm rewatching all the semi-obscure material. Plan to Eradicate the Saiyans, the telephone game animation, Goku And His Friends Return and the fire safety and traffic safety videos.

After I finish that I'll probably rewatch Z Kai from the beginning.

I am re-watching all of Dragon Ball again in preparation for Dragon Ball Season 5 and am currently watching the 21st Tenkaichi Budokai saga right when Goku is about to battle Jackie Chun.

I just finished watching Dragonbox 3, (episode 126 was the last) which plopped me at the beginning of the Jinzonengen arc.

I will continue once I get Dragonbox 4.
Next quest: Buy the Super: Broly and Super Hero Blurays, also Daima whenever that releases in the states. Also the Super Manga!

I'm making my way through Dbox 3 at the moment, Goku just launched his 20x Kaio-ken Kamehameha.

After I finish that up, I might actually start watching the Kai BD I picked up (outside of flipping through it to spot check the dub and the picture quality).

I need to get off the interent and finally finish off the first TV series. But yeah, I'm at the end of Piccolo's death, and I think I'm going into some Kami dream filler.

I've been watching Kai on Nicktoons, so in that sense I'm smack dab in the middle of the Ginyu "arc." Otherwise, I hit the halfway point in watching through GT a while ago and haven't gotten back to it yet... (Been watching YuYu Hakusho instead)

I'm watching the Piccolo Daimaô arc from my library's copy of Season Four. My next episode will be the first fight with Piccolo!!


The filler here is really good...

Just finished reading the 22nd Tenkaichi Budokai again, and now reading the Piccolo Daimao arc.

I'm basically re-reading while looking at background stuff in the panels, to see some things others haven't mentioned yet.

I think Tom Dubois of "The Boondocks" said it best for me when FUNimation announced the release of the domestic Dragonbox, after buying all of the Season Sets: "MOTHERFUCK!!! SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT, PRICKS, SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIIIIIIIT!"

I jump around in the manga by randomly picking up a volume. On DBox Z I'm waiting for Vol. 4 so I can watch something besides the Saiyan and Freeza arcs for once. With Kai I watch it on Nicktoons so I just saw Goku kick the crap out of Baata and ReaCoom yesterday.

Let's see...

I've been re-reading the 21st Budoukai in the manga recently, mostly for informational purposes, but there's a lot of entertainment in it, too.

I sometimes (once a week or so, on average) re-watch my Dragon Ball discs by letting them play in the background while my attention is elsewhere. I'm in the middle of the Red Ribbon arc with that, and I think the next disc will start the Penguin Village episodes. Fun stuff.

Yesterday, I finally finished watching Dragon Box Z 2, almost six months after getting it. This box closed up the gap of Z episodes I'd never seen before (though Box 5 will have all the episodes I've never seen uncut or in Japanese), so now it's all reruns for me. But I love Freeza, and it's been a long time since I've watched the rest of this arc. Hopefully I'll get to start and maybe even finish Box 3 before the fourth one comes out.

And technically, I'm still in the middle of watching through GT for the first time. It's been many months since the last time I watched any of it, but I only have 61-64 left. Maybe I'll sit down and watch them soon.
