Dragonball Season One
SCORE: 51
We have taken some much needed rest from the Dragonball universe. Now it is time to delve into the original Dragonball. We are starting our exploration with Dragonball Season One. This five disc package takes 745 minutes to watch through the thirty-one episodes.
Dragonball Season One is disgusting on so many levels. We have multiple perverted characters, groin slaps, blood, violence, gore, death, and nudity. Dragonball Season One also contains gross humor, lies, deceit, and plenty of selfishness. There is an obsession over women’s underwear, and going around naked.
Dragonball Season One introduces us to a very small cast of characters. It seems strange to see how few characters are in Dragonball Season One. There are also very few characters in each episode of Dragonball Season One generally. Unless we are at the World Martial Arts Tournament.
There is some humor in Dragonball Season One as Goku tries to learn the difference between men and women. We also see the foundation for Goku being so strong and eating so much. The training in Dragonball Season One is insanely tough. It is really cool to see how it toughens up Goku and Krillin.
Dragonball Season One is very inconsistent. At times nothing can hurt Goku, and at other times he can get knocked for a loop by much weaker characters. I can only guess this was done for comic relief. Ultimately it left me confused. I never knew when Goku would look strong, or look weak.
Initially I thought Goku should win the World Martial Arts Tournament. At the end he made a good enough showing that I was pleased. I know Goku wins at least one of those tournaments. I do not yet know which season that is in. Or which tournament he ultimately does win. We will look to work in future seasons of the original Dragonball television show. Right now this is a show to run far, far away from. Way too much bad.
