yeah i can assure you that watching this as a kid after school it was hype as fuck
the pacing of dbz was never wonderful but it did its Big Moments a service in that way, because you were legitimately waiting through so much hype that once you got there nothing felt over the top. it just felt satisfying.
ugh the more i process this the sadder i am about it
To be fair the pacing was worse when we were kids because the localizers padded the episodes with filler (powering up for minutes, flying places, ect) to stretch the show out longer
Sure there's a bunch of extremely hype action scenes to pick from but I think I love the little moments of brevity and comedy the most, things like Yajarobe slacking off and having a snack while everyone else is training
Let's have a thread here with favorite DBZ/DB moments.
I'll start with this classic. Dubbed, but I don't care.
this is an edit, but i have to shout this one out as an all time video
I really liked Cell's first apparence
first time super saiyan
Gohan going Super Saiyan 2 for the first time, especially with the original music

I always go back to Piccolo vs Android 17 for some reason.
Piccolo and 17 are both so goddamn cool, just having them on screen together is badass.
Goku vs Kefla is my favorite fight across all of Dragon Ball.
Trunks appearing out of nowhere and mercing Frieza was the coolest shit i'd ever seen as a kid, i have legit never forgotten that scene lmao
the way the shot splits in two from frieza's POV, the fuckn drama dude iconic
It's hard to pick one
