Definitely start with OG Dragon Ball. You have to watch my boy Goku as a kid and grow into the man that people still talk about 40 years later. His journey is definitely amazing.
Goku is not a deadbeat dad. It was a meme from Dragon Ball Z Abridged but then many people who don't read (as the meme of DB fans can't read suggests) have been acting like it's the truth. Goku is a loving dad and he does love fighting a lot but he always protects his family when they need to be protected and sadly i can't say a lot since i would be spoiling you but Goku is someone who grew up in the mountains all alone after his Grandpa died so he always was a bit dense with everything like he never even saw a girl until Bulma rammed into him with a bike. The DBS Anime did make Goku way dumber and more childish than he was in Z and that is one of the flaws of anime. Luckily the manga does a way better job. But yeah just know it's mainly a meme that Goku is a "bad dad" he isn't the best but he is not bad at all.
I’m so glad someone said it, I don’t mind it as a joke but I’m sick of people saying Goku is a deadbeat dad just because of the Abridged series and some online jokes. He is shown to be a great dad in the actual show/manga apart from like one scene. People joke about him not being there but most of the time when he wasn’t dead or busy trying to fix things and save lives he was always seen with Gohan
He's not a deadbeat dad. Just an irresponsible goober. His IQ in a fight is on par with Einstein. But he'd have an anyuerism trying to do anything 'normal' more complicated than chewing. And he sometimes can't manage that. I *would* give dbz abridged a go, though. It may be comedy-centered, but the plot is 95% intact. You wouldn't be lost watching the buu saga after it. You'd just think "damn. This spongebob going john wick is kinda hard." Kinda like when Saitama goes serious-face. The jokes stopped, and its clobberin' time. Its a balancing act. The purists will want the official show. The masses will come by for the abridged. Subscribers will probably watch all the official ones, or pull in loads of new viewers with abridged, but knowing many won't sub, as they're just here for a laugh, usually. Quick views, or long-term slow subs. But I doubt anyone will complain whichever you choose.
The reason GT “looks older” is because the video you watched uses the standard definition versions for OG and GT’s openings, but uses the 2014 HD Remaster for Z’s. DBZ’s remaster does make it look “more modern” but it fucks up the artwork and crops it to widescreen so it’s actually worse.
GT looks older because the film gets ruined makes the colors slightly more saturated or idk how to describe it that’s why sailor moon’s tan colors looks like that too
@@parrotlord7393 Nope, I know you’re trying to inform people of the whole film fading issue but that is just not why he thought it looked older. In this case it’s entirely because of the videos use of the widescreen version of DBZ, which makes the switch back to 4:3 for GT jarring.
While Goku isn't a deadbeat per se (the otherworld tournament excepted), there were a couple of times he went out for milk for way longer than necessary. As in literally "Hey can we get Goku back home?" "No can do, he does not want to come back."
If you ever want to start DB you have to start with OG DB. People ignore it just because it either didn't air when they were watching Z or Z was just their first time watching DB. OG DB does have some weird pervy stuff and it sadly didn't age well but if you can gloss over it you will find an amazing show and you would see the journey of many characters. DB started off as a goofy adventure story but it is only for like the first couple arcs and then it goes into the martial arts stuff and many fights that DB is of course known for. Z is Goku and his friends after that journey and it obviously goes beyond anyone would've ever imagined. But you don't need to watch Z you can watch Kai instead since it's just Z but with way less filler and even better voice acting for both the dub and the sub. GT is a non-canon sequel that is not well received by most of the DB community. You can still watch it if you want but none of it matters at all outside of you would recognize the characters in some of the games. Super is the canonical sequel but the catch with Super is there are 2 ways to read/watch it. The manga and Anime both follow the same story but because the Anime was actually ahead of the manga it had to take liberties and follow that story in its own way. The manga first started off as a promotional manga for Super but then it became so popular that they just kept continuing it and now the manga is way ahead of the Anime since the Anime stopped airing in 2018. The Z movies are all non-canon except for the last 2. The last 2 Z movies are now technically Super movies since the Anime and manga adapted those movies. The Super movies are all canon too and there is 1 special that was before Kai aired that is also canon. And finally Super Dragon Ball Heroes is just an arcade card game in Japan and has no relevance at all when it comes to the main series and is just fun what if and original stories that take place in a Dragon Ball card games. It has a webseries that promotes the game.
I appreciate you taking the time to inform me on the order that is best to check out all the dragon ball content! I probably will start with OG dragonball again after all this time then go to Kai.
@XboxxAye It isn't canon, bro. Toriyama also made designs for the Z movies, but the only canon Z movies are BoG and RoF (GT is oficial, but not canon).
@TheSpecialKExperience I think the way i would watch it personally is watch the first 54 episodes of Kai. Then go back to Z starting at episode 118. This cuts the first 35% of Z in half and I think after that first 35% Z is the much more worthwhile watch especially for someone whos never seen it before.
@@calvinospina7307 Both aren't movies, they are TV specials. Trunks's special explores the past moments that were briefly introduced in a single chapter (mainly shows Gohan training Trunks, Trunks going to fight the androids with the jacket outfit and he awaking up after getting the beaten' up). Bardock Special is based on a single panel of Frieza's flashback and everything besides the designs were created by Takao Koyama for the special-only.
The blonde chic is Android 18. She is not truly an Android though, she and her brother are more accurately cyborgs because they were born human. Her real name is Lazuli. You also missed the English opening for DBZ. ua-cam.com/video/xq6POolOHho/v-deo.html
Tbh Vegeta does take a lot of L's but without him helping out Goku many times, Goku's L list would be even bigger and Goku's L list is already massive too. And Goku mostly wins with help and barely has solo wins.
You have to start with dragon ball, it's one of the funniest shows i've ever watched especially back when they didn't have to worry about being politically correct
That thing at 14:03 is Zeno the god of everything. Able to create and destroy entire universes at a time but he’s super child like. One is from the present the other is from a future timeline he erased
If you are confused why dragonball z doesnt seem familar yet familiar, its because in the US and Canada we had a unique english op, US and Canada had their own unique ops. I forgot what the name of the song for canada, but for the US its Rock the dragon. It takes some visual snippets from the original dbz jp op but added their own stuff to it. I remember watching dbz when I was very very young in 2004 i believe? I watched 8 or 12 eps and remember that op so clearly even though I havent watched it in 20 years. and then ran into dragonball z kai in 2012. I was so excited to watch it to see the upgraded art, but unfortunately only the op and ending were redone, but the show was the same 😂 but they removed all the filler! but when dragonball z kai came to the west, they kept the same song and op visuals untampered. Just had the singer sing it in english but no new lyrics.
What you should start at is Dragon Ball. Starting at Z is like starting a third of the way through the story. The original series in the comic is just Dragon Ball from what the anime calls Dragon Ball to the end of what the anime calls Z. They just change the name partway through the anime to try and get more of an audience from a name change. Dragon Ball and Z are one series. And if you're talking about "goofiness" that's all throughout the series. Every part of it has mixtures of adventure and comedy and fighting. Personally the song I always heard growing up was Makafushigi Adventure (the first show's opening) since I watched VHS tapes my parents had of the original show from Japan before it was airing in America.
Gohan is the teenager, the goku look a like is his brother go ten. Both are gokus kids. The other biy is trunks who is vegeta and bulmas son. The older trunks look like trunks from the future.
Original Dragon Ball started as a gag manga, which was Toriyama favorite thing to write, like Dr. Slump. DB gets more serious as it grew in popularity, Need to start watching there before going into Z.
14:00 those are basically the same person but from alternate universes. His name is Zeno....and hes the single most powerful being in the Dragonball world, basically God lol
Goku is a deadbeat dad in the sense that most of his time as a dad he was dead 😂 jk jk Also the DBZ Kai "Final Chapters" song is from the international version and pales in comparison to the Japan version
Man what a shame that the second DBZ opening turned out to be such false advertising. It presented Gohan as the new main character, which was a great direction to take the story after the previous arc, but manga readers knew that Goku would quickly be brought back due to popular demand. The franchise has imo suffered permanent damage because of this.
Nah, Toriyama didn't bring Goku back because of fan demand. Gohan was actually super popular when the Buu arc started. He brought back Goku initially as a supporting role but quickly shifted him back to main protagonist because he just didn't know how to write a more complex character like Gohan as the main character.
How is Goku a deadbeat? watching the series he was mostly with his sons, the other time he was training, and out of commission but he would chill with his family when he dont have work to do even got a job as a farmer to provide for them , Chichi on the other hand would try to make Gohan study instead of training with his father....mad as hell you didnt do the english version, rock the dragon classic, DBGT rapping funny
If you do start with Z, I highly reccomend you watch DBZ Kai. It removes a majority of the original's filler, and has better voice acting (Until the Buu saga)
Dude..... Dragon Ball Abridged is NOT Dragon Ball and should not be taken seriously or even as canon (seriously what idiot does that?). Goku isn't a dead beat dad. Everytime he died, it was to save Gohan.

Its a balancing act. The purists will want the official show. The masses will come by for the abridged.

Must watch 😳

You NEED to watch or even react to the german Dragon Ball Classic and (mainly) Z openings
watch this show! on god! frfr!

Why kuu zen zetsu go ddnt include?

When you watch Z watch the kai version (soundtrack is sadly a decent bit worse but everything else is way better)
You would like Vegeta 😂

5:09 Okay so listen...No...
And yes 😅
DBZ lets go K!
it was a long time coming lol
The Japanese Audience had also said Goku is a deadbeat dad, but Toriyama intended Goku to be a strong father and a righteous one at that.
If anything, you should start with Classic Dragon Ball and not Z
You should watch it from z onward and plz do it dubbed
Dude..... Dragon Ball Abridged is NOT Dragon Ball and should not be taken seriously or even as canon (seriously what idiot does that?). Goku isn't a dead beat dad. Everytime he died, it was to save Gohan.
wheres head cha la
react to openings and endings in spanish latino
the kai version is the one where they trim the majority of filler.
alternatively abridged for teh funny.
I have heard people loved the abridged youtube videos
