Anime doesn't translate into worthwhile entertainment at all. It blows. All of it.

That's what I think.

 

Maybe I'm just a major fanboy but it irritates me when people say things like that. The problem is your thinking of anime as a genre, when its really a medium that can (and does) tell any type of story. There isn't just one kind. So saying "all anime blows" is like saying all books blow, or all movies blow, or all black people blow.

I dunno, just something to think about.

....

On the topic of Dragonball Z, personally I have the exact opposite experience of most people here. When I was a kid I liked it just because it was anime and I liked anything anime. As I grew older though the whole DB saga (all-inclusive--I don't differentiate between DB, Z, and GT) started to take a special place in my heart.

And yes the shows ARE better in their original Japanese, especially GT.
