XemnasXD wrote:OK Dragonball is the saga of Kid Goku all the way up until he marries Chi-Chi. This is the original and the best one no matter what anyone tells you. It was this saga that inspired so much of the current anime and manga only they all got it wrong and we end end up with shite like Naruto.

Basically this is Kid Goku as he first searches for the dragonballs first meets alot of the characters, first enters the tournaments, first meets King Piccolo etc. Its lighthearted but very exciting and creative it features fights that can be as violent as the fights in DBZ but because its done in a way that you haven't seen 8 trillion X it manages to keep you captivated.

DBZ is what happens when Corporations force Mangaka into overtime. It contains most of what Americans consider to be Dragonball and thats why we have 12-15 year olds running around pretending to be ninjas because somewhere along the way it all got f*cked up.

Basically its everything that takes place after Goko marries Chi-Chi and for a time it was good. It contains the Raditz Saga(good), the Saiyan Saga(good), the Freiza Saga(good but pushing it), The Android Saga( -_- not cool), The Cell Saga( Good...ish), and lastly the Majin Buu saga (seriously WTH WTF I stopped watching)

The Japanese make no distinction Between DBZ and DB it was done for international audiences for whatever reason. BTW skip GT unless you want to sit through Hours of some guy is is NOT akira Toryiama living out his fantasy by destroying everything Toryiama did and somehow rebuilding it into a shittier version. Im not kidding if you watch GT you will feel like ripping your eyes out and killing the family pet as you run through streets naked screaming "HOW COULD IT ALL GO SO WRONG!!!!!!"


yeah thats basically it. imo, the comics are better because the anime from cartoon network is really really stupid. If you are watching and havent read the books, go find some and read them, you will find them so much better. Especially if your watching some shit from cartoon network..the americans change all the dialogue and the voices. Vegeta sounds so gay. They take out the blood too, and then add in a bunch of filler shit, so your sitting there for about 60 sec waiting for the smoke to clear when goku does a kamehameha. And trust me, when your watching something and the smoke doesn't clear for 1 min, it pisses you off big time.

If you MUST watch the cartoons, watch the original Japanese one with captions instead of dubs, the voices and music is hella better, although the sounds can sound like corny '80s japanese music.

I used to love this show! When I was young (5 or 6) I used to watch Dragonball whenever I happened to switch to it. Do not remember much of it but I do vaguely remember the storyline. Then my brother and I used to watch DBZ everyday. After the Cell Saga my interest died and I stopped watching the episodes when they came out, but I managed to watch them much later in reruns. Didn't watch much GT, was really really boring. I want to see the movie, should be really good, although I wish it was a DBZ movie since I liked that series better.

How old are you?

DB was only shown in the US & UK a few years back...for some reason it wasn't dubbed
into English until after DB-GT was and was shown after DB-GT finished.

It was shown when I was younger, I remember a young Goku running around with Bulma finding dragonballs. Then they started showing it again after DBZ finished and I found some parts of it familiar.

The second and more well known was in 1995, when FUNimation first attempted to launch the Dragon Ball franchise in the United States. Hiring BLT Productions[1] to produce the dub, they had the first 13 aired in syndication in edited form. However due to disappointing ratings, FUNimation chose to abandon this dub, moving on to the newer and more action filled Dragon Ball Z.

This is from Wikipedia. It was shown in the USA (maybe I was watching a US network?) but was canceled because of ratings. Most likely saw it before it was cancelled.
