Rewatching Dragonball

I've been rewatching the original Dragonball in my free time. I'm actually almost done! This would actually be the first time I watched every episode without skipping.

All Goku wanted to do was hang out with his friends, but his masters kept keeping him from doing that and train instead. After the Fortune Teller Baba saga, all he wanted to do was hurry back to his friends after resurrecting Bora but Master Roshi told him he should run off into the wilderness for 3 years. After the dragon was restored in the end of the Piccolo Saga, he wanted to hurry back and see his revived friends again but Kami was like you promised to stay here for 3 years. Don't give Goku shit about not caring because he did! Atleast for DB he liked being with his friends, you can make a case for DBZ lol.

Bulma was pretty useless in DB outside of the initial adventure and the first half of the Red Ribbon army Saga. After that, she pretty much became one of the many spectators during World Marital Arts Tournament Sagas and hitting Roshi once in a while whenever he did something pervy. Bulma really came into bloom during DBZ when Toriyama decided she would be more of a scientist and help the gang with that. But before that? So useless! I forget she's there sometimes.

Tien was pretty badass and deserved more screen time later on including in DBZ. I would say he was the Vegeta of Dragonball but Vegeta obviously became a lot more popular. Tien started off bad but he did have some good character development throughout it all. It sucks that you don't really see more of him. Though you get a sense that he still did his part when he stopped Cell for a while in DBZ.

Sometimes I would hear people wishing they had more content of DB adventures before the events of DBZ. I never really cared much for it because I'm primarily a DBZ fan. But after rewatching DB, yeah, I would like to see the young original gang do more adventures. This is before the extremely high powered power ups in DBZ and when producing large craters in the ground was actually impressive. This was also before Saiyans came into play and the humans actually thought they had a fighting chance to keep up with Goku. I'd actually would like to see young adult Goku before he had a family and a kid to worry about.

I like Krillin so much better when he got older. He was so annoying and unreasonably cocky when he was young. Like, right at the last 3 year time jump, Krillin is older and a lot more likeable and humble. I guess roaming around the wilderness for 3 years helped him out.

Yamcha, I really do feel like he should have been given better roles. Even in filler content, he was next to useless. But in reality, he was a good fighter that liked his friends and would do a lot to help them. And what does he get for it? Just shit that he dies every chance he gets in DBZ, he gets his girl stolen, and he's pretty much forgotten. But what he lacks for keeping up in strength to his peers, he makes up for with insightful ways to accomplish tasks.

If you only watched DBZ, Master Roshi would just be an old man there for comedy relief. But in DB, he's actually pretty damn cool. You can see why Goku, Yamcha, and Krillin continue to wear his colors even after they surpassed him cause he was a really wise master. Very strong too when you realize what he could do as Jackie Chun and when he was trying to defeat Piccolo.

Piccolo Junior is a big softie and I'm glad they brought that more into light during DBZ.
