Imagine the shock felt by 90s kids who had only ever seen American superhero cartoons when they came home from school and saw this for the first time.
Shit is dope...

we used to catch this on toonami in the late 90s and early 2000s and my father absolutely hated this show because of how loud the power up scenes were so trying to watch it in our violent household was always a coin toss of him coming to make some mean joke about us liking this show, or coming in to the room with his belt in-hand. ah memories.

Imagine fantasizing about the people's childhoods. Zoomers are such pathetic fucking freaks.

i remember that i missed the episodes where Krilin get killed and Goku transformed so when i watched the later episodes i was confused and didint know it was Goku

I showed one of my nephews, who's 8, one of the fight scenes with kid Goku in Daima. I thought he'd like it since he's a kid.
He thought it was alright, but said "why does he scream and shout so much?"

Batamn tas, ninja turtles, gargoyles, etc were on tv. Shitty weeb trash was only liked by weebs and bullied them if they dared discuss this shit in public.

>but said "why does he scream and shout so much?"
you should switch to japanese voices

>>215486721
The clip I showed him was with the Japanese voices. Goku screams all the time there too, except it's an old lady screaming

>>215486742
then your nephew is gay kill him now before he troonsup

Suffering builds character anon. Your dad helped you in immeasurable ways. Whether he meant to or not.

>>215486630
That's weird. My 7 year old daughter loves DBZ.

>>215486175 (OP)
Im more interested in how it must have been for the Japanese kids who experienced the series on its first run. They got to see goku grow up whereas most Americans never really watched dragonball.

I thought he'd like it too because he's generally pretty rowdy when playing. But it didn't really click for him. But that's alright, Daima was pretty shit outside of some of the animation in the bigger fights. I don't do the "LIKE WHAT I LIKE!!!" to the kids in my family if they're not into it.

I think I was around 11 or 12 when i first saw. I was at a relatives house who had cable and some channel (uk) was showing the freeza arc. I was so juiced and disappointed when i had to go home. I think I got to the point where the planet is destroyed.

cant wait to watch real anime next year

SSJ Goku was already spoiled, and predicted.
But when Trunks went SSJ, that was the wtf moment
>"TWO SSJs!?!"

>>215487037
>Trunks
its the big reveal as who were his parents that got spoiled

I remember going to a summer camp and blowing other kids' minds with this exact t-shirt. DBZ in my country was only at the beginning so, unless they read the manga like I did or could surf the web, they had no idea what was coming. Some thought it was a knock-off.

>>215486175 (OP)
spic shit

>blowing other kids' minds
>blowing
only their minds and nothing else buddy?

>>215487253
Anon, can you at least try not to think about gay sex for five minutes?

>>215486827
True. Daima is ass.

>>215486862
That looks immeasurably shit.

>>215486827
>I liked DBZ so I showed someone Daima but they didn't like it
>I showed someone a vastly inferior version of media that I liked and they didn't like it, how could this happen?
You fucking retard
This is like going
>I really liked Star Wars because I grew up watching the original trilogy
>I will try to get someone else interested in Star Wars by showing them The Acolyte
