Before I begin I would like to say that this is not a bashing thread but rather a genuine question I had for a long time seeing how many people worship DBZ as if it is in a class of its own where its difference from other stories is as big as earth's from sky. I have only seen 150-200 episodes so excuse me if my opinion is biased.
First of all, if you were to describe its story, what would you say its plot is about? Does it have any depth? Despite having watched so many episodes I've never actually got to find a specific plot other than random villains having as sole motivation world domination or destruction for fun, who had to be defeated.
Their fights are very unrealistic: They punch you, crush you, tear you into pieces and you're up and about in no time.
the way power ups are given is crazy. In one moment you're on the verge of dying and on the other you're invincible. I remember when that Kid defeated Cell and then out of the blue he came back stronger than ever.
Even Goku was at the other world and it was as if he was having a blast.
The big buu was waiting patiently for the kids to complete their fusion and when they finally did it and started to fight, instead of killing them right away for being incapable of fighting well, he waited till they did the preparation they wanted.
I understand that it's all about comedy but I would like you to point me out if there is any deeper message somewhere hiddden in the story, which I failed to see. By no means I have as aim to demote it or criticise the fans for liking it, just all this worshipping around it made me wonder: What's all this fuss about it? What is so special about it? You, the fans, can you enlighten me please?
