If I may interject.... I think a better way to make an example is.... the GOAT rappers like Biggie, JayZ, and Nas used to always say Big Daddy Kane, Rakim, and Big L were their favorite rappers......
They came before the prior 3, in ways they influenced the prior 3, but in no way has that ever help the latter 3 be in consideration of the greatest rappers
So I have to agree with the cats stating that Naruto is better than DBZ..... Yes DBZ was dope for what it was back then. But that shyt aged badly.
I've seen niccas get mad at animes like Bleach when it takes them sometimes 3-6 eps to wrap up a fight, no way in hell in todays era would niccas really be patient enough to sit there and watch for 30 eps DBZ guys try to finish one fight with 6 eps of straight of power ups and energy raising and all that other stuff
Again, this is not to dis DBZ.... DBZ is great.... but its great in a way that Pistol Pete, Bill Russel, and other NBA players from the early black and white tv days were great. Could they fukk with the current level of NBA players? Yet alone players in Jordan's era? Prolly not
Oh and one last thing, peeps always talk about they love of DB
Z but peeps tend to forget how garbage Dragonball and DBGT were.
