What was the most disappointing thing about Dragonball Z?

[JahFocus CS]

power levels were fukked up since the Saiyan/Frieza saga.

series got worse as it went on. Frieza Saga > Cell Saga > Buu Saga

 

[Mic-Nificent]

The directionless Buu Saga of course.

Off-topic, but I just found out the majority of cacs sincerely believe Goku, Krillin, Tien, Yamcha etc. are WHITE . Unbelievable .

They think ALL anime characters are white. They see the dubs and see the colored hair and just assume that the characters are white, even though all the shows are a steeped in Japanese culture. I've seen people argue that Naruto is white.

Goku can't finish fights

Didn't beat Vegeta

Beat Frieza but should've killed him

Didn't beat Cell

Couldn't beat kid buu 1 on 1

Cacs really are the most narcissistic people on the planet .

Piccolo Sr. is the last cat Goku finished off 1 on 1 ...

But he could have EASILY killed Recoome, Burter, Nappa and Frieza (technically Jeice and Ginyu too) if he wanted to.

 

[ePiffany]

The human characters never found the Dragon Balls and wished 2 make themselves as strong as the saiyans.

No real out thinking the antagonist just having some convoluted way of becoming stronger to defeat them.

 

[Tetsuo]

Super saiyan fukkery reducing sise characters to extras.

 

[MikelArteta]

Power ratings and scouters being useless

 

[The Prince of All Saiyans]

It's funny, Vegeta constantly taking L's was one of my favorite things about the show. He'd talk SO much shyt when he had an advantage, but as soon as someone else was just a bit more powerful he'd get scared and start crying like a bytch. What made it even funnier to me was how Vegeta stans always ignored and caped for his blatant bytchassness.......

But after Ressurection F even I was like they didn't have to do homie like that, they could have let him get that win against the dude that killed his Dad, destroyed his planet, and probably molested him (we all know Frieza was a pedo).

wait wht

Super and the fact that The whole franchise as a whole has become nothing more than a cash grab with no substance of what actually made it great for about 15 years now. Funny thing is arguably,I dont think DBZ has ever been more popular than it is now

when did he cry?
veGoata always talked about being the best and he was never scared...of course he took many L's
if you say the broly movie then guess what fakkit that never happen...try again to disrespect the prince of all sayians
hater

I mean they look pretty much white and some aren't even in japan. One Piece characters are diverse and damn near every character in AOT is supposed to be white.

Vegeta cried during the Frieza Saga. He cried when he realized he wasn't strong enough to kill Frieza,

this was right before Frieza started to beat that nikka like a pinata.

He cried again when he was lying in the dirt broken and telling Goku what Frieza had done to their people

As for him being scared, he was terrified for most of the Frieza Saga. As soon as Frieza showed up Vegeta wa shook, once Frieza transformed he was so scared that he flew away, but Frieza caught him and was like "You aint about to run from this ass whupping", then Frieza gut punched his ass a drug him back to the battlefield.

Vegeta was also shook when the Ginyu force first showed up.

Vegeta might be the most complex and interesting character in DBZ, but the idea that he was the character with the most heart or the hardest character is the series is just not true. Vegeta has a long record of bytchassness in DBZ. He talks a LOT of shyt when he thinks he has an advantage, but as soon as he knows he's outmatched he shows his true colors.

Disclaimer. This thread is for the people like me that were disappointed by the series and stopped watching at some point because of how ridiculous the show became. I stopped watching around the Buu saga when dude kept getting stronger and stronger no matter what. It was just too much.

Anyways, being older now and rewatching the series, I'd say what's disappointing is the fact that Goku went through everything he did in the Frieza saga and STILL DIDN'T KILL FREIZA!

Bro.... this man is the first Saiyan to go Super Saiyan, throws a Spirit Bomb that took like 2-3 episodes to charge, and you mean to tell me he doesn't kill him? Meanwhile Trunks kills Frieza in less than a minute. Mind you Frieza was strong enough to destroy the whole planet. So that must mean Trunks is strong enough to destroy the whole planet too right? Idk, I think that was just disappointing considering everything Goku went through. If I was Goku and seen Trunks kill Frieza so easily, I would've just fought Trunks on sight on some fukk you and anybody that loves you, shyt
