The Buu Saga in the anime is so ass idk if that’s acceptable to say but damn even at 12 years old I was like “man why does everything in this arc gotta take fuckin forever” and that says a LOT when someone who likes the other arcs of the Dragon Ball anime says it

Every arc in Dragon Ball is pretty long and drawn out, but the Buu Saga takes it to a point that’s just tiresome

100%, Buu saga is a way better read than it is a watch, that’s for sure. And there’s janky plot holes and inconveniences that drive me insane in it. I still love it though—I love all of Dragon Ball, but man you can really tell that Buu saga was held together by sticks and glue. And like, so was Cell saga, but it miraculously worked really well

I mean when you know the Toriyama lore and that he wanted to end Dragon Ball with Goku passing the torch to Gohan, but was pressured by the publishers to make more, it kinda makes sense that the Buu Arc isn’t as solid, his heart wasn’t in it as much

True, unfortunately they decided Gohan wasn’t built for the MC spot. I will say the one part of Buu saga I thought was really good was Goku’s characterization. He feels wise and responsible while also still being goofy and unserious. I feel like in Super they just write him to be dumb af when he hasn’t been like that in forever
