And the animation isn't anything special so it doesn't attract me either
I think there were about 3 characters in dragon Ball I've ever cared about, Vegeta, Gohan, and Broly
Lol
The villains are the most interesting part of the series for me, yet few have any stories I haven't seen before with better characters, writing, and animation
He is literally just a stronger Saiyan
He is the least interesting to me imo
I honestly don't know
Ah
But referring to the villains, dragon Ball isn't the only thing that replicates these tropes
Even things like power rangers do it
What tropes
Villain who absorbs energy
Villain who predicts moves
Villain who is insanely fast that you can't see him
Villain who steals power
Villain who shape shifts
And so on
To be fair though, buu turned out to be really fun as a character
So six or so different tropes
I thought Buu was the most recycled villain
They already had someone who could regenerate
Yes, but he was entertaining
I disagree
I'm taking personal opinion man, you're entirely free to do that
Buu was childish and powerful
That is fine
But he regenerated easier than Cell
And he had forms like Frieza
Even Cell had forms but it was based on who he absorbed
Buu did too but only after his evil form
Anyway I am not in total disagreement but I personally liked Frieza and Cell over Buu
Plus lets get into the cynical side of things
as in why they chose villains for the franchise
Frieza's first form seemed interesting but people thought it was weird he was so short. But that is sorta why he seemed so haunting
then the producers said "maybe Frieza should have a second form"
so he basically turned into King Cold before King Cold was reveiled
a big version of Frieza
but wait it would make more sense if Piccolo was wished back and actually did something against the second form, right
so he does
