I like to occasionally poke fun at Street Fighters ugly characters, but they are leagues better and more unique than Toriyama's shit

When I see his characters, I see shitty chibi baby faces attempting to emulate Disney characters big round eyed look, mashed with what appears to be an overuse of straight lines, sharp edges and spikes to try and make up for it? I don't know, but it's ugly as shit and seems like the art style of a 12 year old boy.

Toriyama did contribute to the anime.

I heard a rumor that you added the “Z” to the title because of an energy supplement that had “Z” in its name.

Toriyama: Well, that’s wrong (laughs). “Z” is the last letter in the alphabet, right? So, at the time I already really wanted to end the series, and so I made the title “Z” to say “Hey, this is the end!” I don’t remember saying a single thing about any energy supplement. You really can’t go by rumors (laughs).

Nakatsuru: Did you imagine anything else besides “Z”?

Toriyama: No, I don’t think so. Personally I thought that the title was fine the way it was, but the people on the anime staff said they wanted an image change, so I figured “well, this should be OK”.

Best DB for me was adult Goku before any of the alien shit. That includes the movies like Deadzone and one of the other ones with kid gohan. The last world tournament with Piccolo Jr. is the best peak of everything before it and while Goku was strong, it hadn't yet created the insane power gap between him and the rest of the cast that started with Raditz showing up. I can extend my attention to the end of Freeza as a finale, though i think that whole saga just shits on the world built up beforehand. After that, things should have been "reset" following a similar journey of kid Gohan learning to become a fighter.

Everything after Freeza just got retarded in scale. I have to just accept the series completely becoming anime capeshit superhero stuff at that point and forgetting any of its mystical martial arts type stuff.

If Toriyama or whoever wanted to milk the ip more, i would love a more scaled down retelling of the 3 main arcs of Z that makes everyone closer to usefulness and have Kid Buu or something be the only threat strong enough to blow up a planet potentially. Also scale back on using the Dragon Balls or other ass-pull nonsense to move the plot along. I like the stuff from the android and Buu sagas, i just would like to see it repackaged in a way closer to the original pre saiyan reveal turning point of the series.
