How would you rate Dragon Ball....

[Future Warrior]

Do you consider it a good franchise on it's own?

 

[Captain Cadaver]

So, as a whole, or just rating Part 1?

Just the manga. From Pilaf-Boo arc.

 

[Fantastische Hure]

One of my all-time favourite series. Set the template for many future Shōnen which one is even more successful from a business stand-point.

 

[Captain Cadaver]

5/10 overall. It isn't mediocre, since from the start to the Freeza Arc it had many good ideas and is better than the majority of other Shonen, though it starts to slip downhill after the Saiyan Arc in terms of writing and consistency, with the Cell and Boo Arcs being overall bad arcs (though not as terrible as GT/Super or many other Shonen Part 2s) and if rounding up my scores for all the arcs, 5/10's the most I could probably give it.

It could have been better, but definitely my favorite Anime/Manga.

 

[Classic Adamas]

I like the entire franchise sans Shitty Super.

 

[Let's Go Fearless!]

It's the only franchise that I'm a Super hardcore fan so yeah 4.5/5.

 

[Boo Brand Milk]

If i liked Dragon Ball I wouldn't post about it on a Dragon ball message board.

Pretty well what CC said.

I enjoy other series a lot more, but it doesn't help that I've watched Z 14 times and read the manga at least 10-12.
