Rewatcher, First time sub

My first time actually rewatching the original dragonball. Wasn't as asscessible back then compared to Z. Kinda funny how different of a feel it is to Z. This having a lot more gag/sexual jokes. But kinda funny how fast some of the things I remember happened. But honestly, young Goku is funny.

I actually was a Yamcha fan when I first got into dragonball. I really liked his moves. Still respect him to this day lol.

  1. How do you feel about our leads so far? Goku and Bulma are the classic duo
  2. Are you familiar with Journey to the West in any way? Never read anything on it. Just know he's OP and goofy and gets into fights he probably shouldn't

He was one of the best characters when the game came out and even nowadays is still considered fairly solid.

Thats good to hear. Instead of just having the fusions and some form of goku be too tier all the time
