DBFZ information help

[redrumriley]

Hi Steam. I am currently on season 4 of Dragon Ball (1986) and after I finish, I'll watch Z. I really wanna play this game tho so I was wondering at what point in the show of dbz will I know every character in the DBFZ roster? I mean by this, what episode or season will I be able to identify every playable fighter in the game. I'm guessing there are characters from Super in this game but idc about that show, I'm just concerned with spoilers for Z. And I'm not gonna play story mode until I finish all 9 seasons of Z so Im not concerned about that either. Hopefully my question makes sense

You need to watch Dragon Ball Super to understand the later or unfamiliar characters.

Dragon Ball Super was atrocious. Some parts were good, but most of the characters and story were made for eight-year-olds. I'm not joking.

Z had some great arcs, but it peaked with the Cell Games. Buu was the start of the downward spiral with the terrible character design of the villains and dialogue (again, made for the eight-year-olds). Some parts were okay.

If you can watch the original Japanese version of Z, you may opt to do that. They actually have some uncensored scenes (censored for English because of, you guessed it, the eight-year-old target audience).

The series could've been legendary if the target audience was young adult for Z, and adult for Super. After all, the people who watched Z are all adults now. Instead, it was "pretty good with annoying parts" for Z, and ended up being complete crap with Super.

Btw, GT is after Z and before Super, but it's not canon.

I meanr at what point in the show of DBZ, would I know all the playable characters (besides super characters)?

[redrumriley]

*meant

You'd know most of them by the time you watch the Buu saga.

[redrumriley]

K. Thanks dude, Ill research around what season that is. Cant wait to play this amazing game!

[TimeToFly]

No problem!

season 9, pretty much anything before the world peace saga

[redrumriley]

Dam. guess I cant play this game for a long time if I need to get to season 9 first

In order to know all characters you have to watch dbz to dbs.

If you don't care about Dragon Ball Super and ONLY Z, unfortunately there is 1 or 2 characters that are from the final season in the roster. Good news is, I personally wouldn't care, knowing what I know about the series now. But it's up to you

after you finish Dragon Ball

if you feel a rush
then watch DBZ kai(161 Episodes) instead of DBZ(291 Episodes)
there both the same but kai skips fillers and shorter dialogues and stare downs
then DB Super(131 Episodes)

i read the manga. you can skim the parts you dont like and you get the purest form of the story with no buIIshlt.

good opinion. I agree, I got past muscle tower like a month ago and that was horrible. Like dam
