Just curious as to what everyone thinks of one of the biggest mainstream animes.
Personally, I like the characters, and some storylines were enjoyable to watch (the Saiyan and Namek ones), but I felt it was pretty bad in terms of plot overall, and some of the lines that characters have are way OTT cheesy. Plus many of what would have been good points were dragged out far too much, sometimes so much so that they stopped being good at all.
I think if they'd stopped after the end of Namek, got rid of a load of the cheesy dialogue (though not from the Ginyu Force, those guys are just way to funny too not have it) and shortened the length of it all to cut out a lot of needless talking in it, it would've been a good series.
