What are your favourite Dragon Ball characters (lemmy.world)

My favourite DB character has got to be Perfect Cell, I find his design striking and eye catching on almost any manga panel, game series and anime.

Literally perfect in the truest sense of the word. I'm sure there are a lot of people who like frieza but frieza despite being a good character didn't appeal to me as much as Cell did.

A goodie I'd choose Gohan, the lad has gone through trials and tribulations and has managed to overcome those odds by himself with the support of family and loved ones, something that resonates with me. This includes cool desigs like his beast form which I thought was visually striking.

What about you? What are your favourite characters and why?

My favorite character is Goku from original DB. IMO he got dumber and dumber as the series went on, and he lost his original character a bit too. DBZ is cool and all but original DB was on another level.

RIP Akira Toriyama.

It's funny. When I was much younger, I disdained DB and preferred DBZ because it was more "serious" or something. Now I find DB, with it's focus on adventures over fights and relatively lower stakes, to be far more entertaining. It's also generally much funnier.

Goku from DB is a great choice btw.

Too many knocks to the head.

One of my favourite things about super was to see the original Goku character come back. A goofy and loveable guy that's a savant when it comes to fighting and just wants a bigger challenge.
