At the beginning I was a fan of DB, sorta... I liked the first series, and for this reason I started watching the second - DBZ - with all the good intentions you can think of. DBZ is surely a slow slow series, with lots of unnecessary episodes. Still, I liked it almost till the end of Freezer's saga. After the Freezer's Saga, when the Android's and Cell's Saga started, I was really disappointed. I've tried to like it as before, especially trying to focus my attention on Trunks and Gohan, who, together with Piccolo, are my fave characters of DBZ series. But I couldn't like it anymore. I started to think "Geez, every villain is dumber than his predecessor, and the main characters are even worse, yawnnn...", also considering the slowness gets even worse after the Androids. The same events are always repeated episode after episode, without any kind of originality. There are superheroes screaming like mads and becoming more and more powerful every five minutes, but that are always to weak to beat a villain within a couple of episodes, human race in danger and Earth risking to be destroyed, fusions and training... BORING!!!! I coulnd't bear the boredom anymore and I became an anti-fan (but I repeat, I still like the first DB, which is completely different). As for GT, I don't even think it's a sibling of DB trademark, because, as some other said, it is so ridiculous that only younger children could really enjoy something so dumb and have some interest in it.
