Watching the Dragon Ball anime series with all the movies and specials in chronological order can be tedious work! With a whopping 24 movies/specials on top of over 600 episodes in total, there is a lot of content to digest here. While most specials and movies are not considered canon nor is the entirety of GT, I am going to be including them in this list for the sake of watching as much Dragon Ball content as possible. Because the movies and specials aren’t part of the “true timeline” the stories won’t fit perfectly but according to ability and power-scaling, they will make sense. So if you are interested in watching everything in order, you have come to the right place! Dragon Ball Episodes 1 - 43 Son Goku, a fighter with a monkey...

Epic fight scenes, great storytelling, and amazing characters – the Dragon Ball anime series sure does have it all. Among the amazing characters is quite a lot of feline friends. Throughout the series, there have been a number of kitty cat characters that have been loved, even if they only have minor roles in the series. Let’s check out the notable cats of the Dragon Ball anime series! Puar According to Toriyama, Puar is a mix between a cat and a rabbit. While Puar is a shape-shifter and not actually a cat, he makes the list for his feline appearance! First introduced in the Dragon Ball series, Puar is Yamcha's lifelong best friend and companion. While it is not translated the same in the English version of the anime, Puar is...

Not many people are fans of Chi-Chi come Dragon Ball Z. She was a favorite in Dragon Ball for many but it seems that since she became a housewife, things have gone downhill for everyone. While not intending to put all the blame on her (I am sure it is no easy road being married to one of the strongest adult children in the world) there are some things that just make her stand out as being a terrible person! Here are the top 5 reasons Chi-Chi is a succubus from hell sent to steal Goku’s soul (and sperm). Chi-Chi Convinced Goku to Marry Her Without Him Knowing What Marriage Was Goku is not the sharpest tool in the shed. He had no clue what marriage was when he promised Chi-Chi he would marry her. In fact, he thought it was some...

Some of the concept art has been revealed for the latest Dragon Ball Super movie set to release next year. Among some new character designs and Pan being shown to be older in age, a lot of fans have noticed that Piccolo seems to have changed in appearance as well. Where he normally had pink-colored armor pads on his skin, they have become yellow in color. This is likely down to time advancing forward for the movie. Does this mean Piccolo is considered an elder? Namekian Lifespan Namekians live longer lives than both humans and Saiyans. Standard Namekians will live to be around 200 years old while those born with special abilities could live to be 500 years old or older in the case of Kami Guru. Piccolo is indeed a special case...

The very foundation of this amazing anime series has been set by the use of the Dragon Balls. These balls, when gathered, will call upon a great dragon to grant wishes. Depending on the balls used, the dragon’s name and appearance are different. But hey, you are reading this because you are a fan so you already know this stuff! Let’s jump into the list then. Here is every wish granted in the Dragon Ball anime series from Dragon Ball to Dragon Ball Super (not including GT). 1.) A Pair of Women’s Underwear In Dragon Ball, the first appearance of Shenron is brought about when Emperor Pilaf is making his wish for world domination. He was interrupted by Oolong with a wish of his own; A pair of women’s underwear. This wish was granted...

Something that has been widely debated since the introduction of Vegeta in the Dragon Ball franchise has been who is better – Goku or Vegeta? While I certainly think each has their positive qualities and each has their negative qualities, there are certain things you would expect Goku to be better at and he just sucks at them. This is likely down to him being very child-like in nature, even as an adult. We are going to take a look at 5 things Vegeta does better than Goku, the last one probably won’t shock you! Vegeta is a Better Fighter There is still a lot of debate here as Goku has always appeared to be the stronger of the two but strength only gets you so far. Vegeta is better at pacing himself and tends to want to get the job...

The upcoming film Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero is set to release in 2022 and only a handful of characters have been confirmed for the film. We can expect to see a heavy focus on Goku, Piccolo, Krillin, an older Pan, and a new gray alien character whose name has not yet been revealed. Many are speculating to see a return of Gohan’s “Great Saiyaman” as well. Given the theme of this movie and the fact that his daughter is in the film, it is safe to assume Gohan will play a sizable role as well. Looking at the previous movie, “Dragon Ball Super: Broly”, we might be looking into a trend of reintroducing characters from past DBZ movies and making them relevant again through a means of telling new stories with updated timelines. If this is...

Looking back at the series, there have been some pretty wild transformations but none more primal than when a Saiyan becomes an Oozaru! The “Great Ape” form is said to be one of pure primal rage and undeniable strength. Not including the movies (but including GT), let’s take a look at the various different Oozaru transformations from Goku, Gohan, and Vegeta! Pilaf's Castle While technically not Goku’s first transformation into the Oozaru (Great Ape), it is the first full transformation we see in the anime series. While Goku and his friends are being held prisoner in a chamber designed to use the sun’s rays to cook them alive, a full moon came first changing Goku into his Oozaru form. In an attempt to make him faint, Yamcha cuts...

Dragon Ball Z has some pretty heavy and emotional moments throughout the series. Some of them more so than others. When looking for the most emotional parts, these 5 moments tend to be on most fan lists. Here are the most emotional moments in Dragon Ball Z! (Watch each moment here!) 5.) Vegeta's Plea When Vegeta is facing death, he opens up for the first time and is brought to tears when speaking with Goku. He tells Goku how the Saiyans were meant to do everything Frieza asked and he was taken from his father as a small child. If he disobeyed Frieza, he’d kill his father. It turns out, he killed him anyways along with all of the other Saiyans even though he did what he asked of him. With his last breath, he pleads with Goku to...
