Why was Gohan such a bad character?

Green dick > monkey dick

Piccolo was also more of a father than fucking Goku, who became a shitty character in the first episode of DBZ.

Seriously the just kept the same man child and added some bullshit about him not aging because "We just saiyan". Rather than develop Goku from DB (a good show) to DBZ (bad show) they just focused on building up more powerful badguys as opposed to the mysticism and unique abilities found in DB's world.

DBZ is shit. Goku is a fucking manchild that they did not bother to develop. As opposed to the character arc of Goku in DB who went from being a literal carefree monkey man to adjusting to society (somewhat), facing grief, and training.

The fights were also better if you count them. DBZ is lazy and gave Goku some shitty unique hidden power as opposed to him getting his ass beat and actually learning. Gohan is the most understandable of shitty characters because his father is a manchild and he literally has more responsibility than him

DBZ fanboy found.

Fucking this.
DBZ also loses almost all sense of adventure as the story mostly meanders around inconsequential fights interspersed with training arcs, particularly after Namek.

Early DB gave out shitty power ups too though.

Lets let him keep talking to himself. He needs to vent.

I've been rewatching Dragon Ball lately (On episode 132) and it's not THAT much different from DBZ.

Goku definitely still gets bullshit power ups that are too big to be fair.
For example he one day gets his ass beat by Piccolo's henchmen and then the next day goes toe to toe with and beats prime King Piccolo because he drunk some shitty water hidden away in some ice mountain.
Or him getting the power to beat the far more experienced and skilled Mercenary Tao simply by running up and down Korrin's tower a couple of times.

In fairness though, Dragon Ball does have cooler training arcs where Goku is actually learning neat and unique abilities, but it also shares a lot of the bullshit DBZ has.
