How does DBZ do it?

No, the "hardcore anime fans" hate it. The 14-year-old teenage girls love it.

I don't think that I know a single 14-year old teenage girl that watches anime.

I mean the emo ones in particular. All the 14 year old girls where I live are pretty much emo.

it was one of those deals where you watched it every day after school
and it starts to become "oh, the bad guy didn't die after Vegeta became the eighteenth level Super Saiyan, he transformed into his next, more powerful form"
it got stale
but then later on, you realize its endearing qualities, and come back to the parts that you loved

Take that sentence to the brony board and get back to me if you survive.

I love it because it's like an action movie, it's not supposed to be thoughtful just overly awesome.
-Hey look at me, I'm fucking awesome. Look at my new look, it makes me 10 times stronger and I fucking own you now. Easy as shit.

It's really predictable, and the one that acts the most calm wins every time. No surprises so you know what you're getting, great for if you don't want to think too much.

But.. People who watch anime often get baffled by the plot.. So that's why dbz is hated, it's very simpleminded.

Just trying to help people who don't understand what criticism is out.
Nothing is loved by all. And even the majority can be wrong. As for example in media.

then there are people like me that doesn't really analyze every single part of the show they're watching, and simply watches whatever it is they enjoy.

This is the internet everything is hated by some people somewhere for some reason.

I have no idea since I never watched DBZ

Remember the countless Linkin Park AMV's?

Wait I have to match the yelling bits with Super Saiyan power ups yells, I R so original

<Mine

trigun is awesome, that gif is awesome, have a wallpaper

Death Note is really good, you should watch that

DBZ was just exciting.

I got shivers every time Goku showed up after training 'cause I knew somebody was gonna get their ass kicked.

That's the best part of a show!

it's the same faggot doing it every time

Agreed, I swear everything I see a post that starts with 'Hated by every single anime fan', I thought it was another repost.

With all do respect, DBZ is certainly an amazing anime, and well deserving of it's fame and popularity. But there were many things about the show that drag it's artistic merit down. The pacing got really bad after the Freeza saga, most fight were the same 5 pictures repeated, they would talk far more than fight, and the creators would constantly bring out more and more "Most powerful beings in the galaxy" villains, and after Goku first became a super saiyan, (which was a big deal) EVERYBODY starting becoming super saiyans. Even goten didin't need to go through near death conditions or face a tragedy to become one. DBZ up to the Freeza saga is to me, 4/5 anime. But other anime such as Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica, STEINS;GATE, and FMA: Brotherhood are top-notch in writing, characters, plot twist, pacing, music, and length. (my opinion of course) And I only compare DBZ to those animes because I respect DBZ enough and recognize it to be in that family of anime.

I see what you mean. IMO though, the series was perfect up until the Buu saga. From the beginning of Z to the end of the Cell saga, there isn't a thing I'd change about the series. Sure, more people were becoming Super Saiyans, but at least in the Cell saga they had to actually try, unlike Goten and Kid Trunks.

The pacing is also helluva lot better in the manga, plus the mange doesn't suffer from having one fight consisting of repeating certain scenes over and over again.

Oh, thanks for reminding me. I'll give you that, Gohan's father-son Kamehameha was pretty friggin bad-ass. And everybody who became a super saiyan up to that point had a good reason to. So yes, up to perfect cell was very good. And of course the manga will ALWAYS have better pacing than the anime. But the anime gives the privilege of music, sound effects, and voice acting. Which in many cases help add to the drama.

its not just you

MORE then Bronies?

Wow, it isn't nearly that bad IMO.

You am not real Super Sand!
