Soon after that i become a fan for that cartoon.....but after the Black goku series i was thrilled and begun to see it as best cartoon ever.... actually from that series i born as a dragon ball fan...!!! But when i begun to search for that in KZbin and all....il I begin to know that that's and anime actually....!!! And when i begun to see next part of tournament of power.....i cannot control myself and finished all the episodes with days....!!! And i become a big big big fan for dragon ball super....!! I was astonished that someone had created this stuff...!!! The plot of whole story was crazy to be tought....!!! And the animation was too amazing to be made the visual and sound effects, emotions and all....it was like a God saviour of my life.....!!! It became such and inspiration for me....!!! And now i know sir akira toriyama is the legend of anime...!!! And i am glad he had recieved many awards for the best manga creator....!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Dragon Ball is amazin, one of the best Manga and anime in the world, even people who don't watch anime still know of it.... it is very disorganized tho, canon and non canon and plot holes and retcons and past events and statements that contradict the retcons etc..... I think we need a remake of the manga, deleting ome of the stuff that all fans hated, adding in movie plots that were popular (Turles - Cooler 1 & 2 - Broly 1 & 2 and the Super version - Tapion etc...) Dragon Ball Multiverse did that in a way that removes contradiction by changing the plots of movies and manga a little, so it can be done. finally, to keep interest in the manga, the Anie could be a true adaptation, while the manga has the official power levels in each chapter, good for marketing this way.

[@SmugStick]

The manga is the best way to experience the series. Thanks for watching, be sure to share.

And thank you for the show known an dragon ball Mr. Akira Toriyama

[@420Romantic]

unless you count something like Pokémon and other cartoons from Cartoon Network "Anime" than Dragon Ball - Super is the only anime I've watched so far... I finally got the whole collection on dvd, I wish I could afford blu ray lol, and I watched everything in English Dub with the voice actors I grew up with but also had the original Japanese subs in English on from the very start of Dragon Ball, through DBZ, Super, and also tried my best to place all the movies/specials in chronological order! It was cool thinking of the English Dub actors saying the original lines/script! Made it even better! Everything was just that much more intense, emotional, and hilarious!!! I don't know if I'll ever read all those subtitles again in my life lol but it was definitely worth it!!! Can't wait for more seasons of Super!!! The Moro arc looks pretty awesome! anyway hope everybody is doin well! cheers

[@Ericvl2102]

Also, do not forget that Dragonball was made iin a era where there were no handheld computers for the game. I bet Pokemon wouldn't be that succesfull without the games to play.

What if you used this story "Blood is thicker than Water" By: ShotgunRedneck as inspiration for a What if theory? What if Minato is/was born a Super Saiyan Grade 1 or Grade 4? King Vegata decides to exile Baby Saiyan Minato to another planet and you can decide to send Baby Minato to the Shinobi Planet or a tear to another Universe opens up and baby minato's Saiyan pod goes through that tear to the Earth from the Naruto Universe? Baby Minato is found by a Shinobi from the Leaf village and adopts minato into the Namikaze Clan, and the rest of the series goes as normal, but Naruto is born with blonde hair with red highlights or Red hair?
