Ya know, Dragonball Z gets a bad rap but it'll always live as one of the classics. I used to be really into it in high school, although I'm not Mr. Guy about it anymore I still enjoy it and respect it. The thing that makes it so unbearable to so many people (myself included) are the combination of the worse-than-usual English dub and just the simple fact that it was rushed to be made into a series before the manga was finished. Therefore you have all these episodes where nothing really happens and they just talk and stare at each other because the animators are waiting for Akira to release the next issue of the manga, THEN they actually do shit then wait again. It's very obnoxious, there are 538 episodes included in the Dragonball franchise but ya know it could've easily been made into 250 had it been made after the full manga was done.
