Nah, both the Namek and Cell arcs were good. He phoned it in for the Buu arc, but to be fair, he originally intended to stop the series with the Namek arc but kept going because of pressure to do so.
Too much power scaling
Too many characters introduced to the point old ones fell by the wayside
New characters introduced with no real backstory or anything interesting (ginyu force, king cold, androids 16-18)
Nothing written for non saiyan characters outside of piccolo
guru and that stupid potential unlock ability
Horrible pacing when fighting frieza
Gohan turning SS2 over the death of.. Android 16
Goku blowing himself up with cell for no reason as a “send off”
Cell games where everybody got trained and dressed up to stand on the sideline and watch goku fight
Forgetting to draw tails
Etc
Shitty writing
You haven't said I was wrong.
Thank you for seeing what I saw
As a kid this show was the shit but as an adult it's wack as fuck
Why was tien, yamcha, and chaotzu brought back to life if nothing was going to happen for those characters for the rest of the show?
Because they were characters from the previous series? Goku didn’t even hang out with them losers no more as soon as he grew up
Was too busy being dead or training
Show showed nothing from the characters and who they are outside of saving the world
It was just “yo yamcha plays baseball now”
“Bulma is with vegeta now”
“Bulma invented exactly what we need”

This dude Tien was missing all through the Buu saga and just shows up out the blue to get knocked out ASAP
Toriyama probably said “oh shit I forgot about him!”
loud-ninja
Here to point out the illogical
None of them wanted to fight anymore. That is all goku wanted to do. They gave up after nappa and vegeta gave them the bizz. They knew they couldnt keep up. Now i do think DB super is not good writing. That series is not that great but i still watch/read it..
Man I'm still on the Frieza saga lol
I feel like these dudes been about to fight for the longest
I think I knocked out like ten eps one day and I was just passed his 2nd transformation
Bro tell me something interesting about yamcha post saibaman? Then tell me why he still appeared in that many eps
Wanna talk about how frieza was only in his 3rd form for like 2 eps of the show because toriyama was too lazy to keep drawing him in the manga?Man I'm still on the Frieza saga lol

Imagine if Toriyama didn’t waste time with adding characters every arc and giving old irrelevant characters dialogue and nothing to do and focused on having a core few characters with great character arcs and development lol
Why even show the ox king in DBZ? Puar was there as yamcha’s lover and that was
It
Why show yahirobi and bulma and roshi watch a fight through a crystal ball?!
Why!?
Just providing proof why the writing was shitty
Yeah I hear ya.....ya favorite characters got left behind ala shitty writing
Tell me what’s the point of goten?Yeah I hear ya.....ya favorite characters got left behind ala shitty writing
Sometimes a person, typically a woman, will have a child that's leaving the home and suddenly feel like they without. Empty nest syndrome. Anyway, to fill that void they typically have another child or get a pet
ChiChi chose another child
Worked out well as her friend has a son a couple years older and they eventually become besties
