DragonBall Z was violent trash that shouldn't have been shown to kids. I was in 2nd grade when it was new and it for sure was the next power rangers in making kids want to fight literally all the time. It's also just a really shitty show, it's literally people standing around yelling about how they're going to fight but every arc the new guy is harder to fight. It's fucking dreck.

That's literally all kids.

I know that Playing Power Rangers or Playing Dragon Ball Z just meant fighting. I.tjink children shouldn't watch a show that is literally just about fighting. That's the entire focus of DBZ, every character's motive is based around being better at fighting. At least other shitty kids action shows had the veil of having the protagonists 'really not want to fight but have to!'. The main character's goal in dbz is to be the strongest fighter and fight stronger people. Kids shows shouldn't be entirely focused around fighting

You're wrong. Some of the characters are certainly fighting enthusiasts, but Goku and crew are usually fighting to save the world, not just to get better at fighting.
