After the events of <a href=\"https:\/\/wegotthiscovered.com\/anime\/how-to-watch-dragon-ball-in-order\/\"  rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the original <em>Dragon Ball<\/em><\/a>, Toriyama\u2019s latest work at the time opted for a more adventurous story and introduced characters that continue to live on today. Now, as we celebrate the life of the famed creator, <a href=\"https:\/\/wegotthiscovered.com\/anime\/dragon-ball-creator-akira-toriyamas-cause-of-death-explained\/\"  rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">who has unexpectedly passed away at 68<\/a>, it\u2019s important to highlight <em>DBZ<\/em>\u2019s part in allowing anime to enjoy a mass, international audience. Altogether, <em>Dragon Ball Z<\/em> remains the quintessential anime, and it\u2019s time for a rewatch. Heck, <a href=\"https:\/\/wegotthiscovered.com\/anime\/complete-dragon-ball-z-filler-list\/\"  rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">throw in the filler episodes too<\/a>!<\/p>\n<h2><em>DBZ<\/em>: A story of excellent character development&nbsp;<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Goku unleashes Super Spirit Bomb Vs Majin Buu English Dub 4k 60fps\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/gtX6E12B1zM?feature=oembed&#038;enablejsapi=1&#038;%23038;origin=https:\/\/wegotthiscovered.com\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p>Goku\u2019s story as a lonely orphan was backed by the likes of Bulma, Master Roshi, Piccolo, and Krillin in <em>Dragon Ball<\/em>. However, by <em>Dragon Ball Z<\/em>, the iconic sh\u014dnen protagonist was supported by a wealth of characters. Goku\u2019s journey to become the strongest warrior came with its fair share of challenges, but at the core of it all, he always found a way to triumph. The most important lessons, however, came when our hero was defeated, allowing us to witness the sheer strength of the community around him. In a sense, even the audience became a part of this world.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>From Vegeta, to Gohan, Cell to Frieza, and the ever-so-suave Androids, Akira Toriyama created a diverse group of characters, all with their own, distinct personalities and appeal. <em>DBZ<\/em> stands out as one of the best anime whereby even the villains became fan-favorites. Through each storm, the quirks of every person, strong or weak, were defined, boosting the anime\u2019s relatability. You could always find a <em>Dragon Ball Z<\/em> character to relate to, making it perfect for viewers of all ages.<\/p>\n<h2>Akira Toriyama kept vital human flaws in <em>DBZ<\/em> <\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Why Gohan Hates Goku - TeamFourStar (TFS)\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/rFQb8Di_fcI?feature=oembed&#038;enablejsapi=1&#038;%23038;origin=https:\/\/wegotthiscovered.com\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p>As much as Goku is also the quintessential hero, he was not the best father and husband. Toriyama refused to shy away from the qualities that made the protagonist unlikeable to some. Through this, he revealed that familial flaws are not a distinct human characteristic. As a child, it\u2019s easy to ignore Goku\u2019s quest for strength and endurance, but as an older viewer today, it\u2019s necessary to commend Toriyama for not painting <em>Dragon Ball Z<\/em>\u2019s characters in the best light, at all times.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-love-will-always-save-the-day\">Love will always save the day<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Goku And Gohan Father Son Kamehameha (1080p HD)\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/h6BulKv2IEE?feature=oembed&#038;enablejsapi=1&#038;%23038;origin=https:\/\/wegotthiscovered.com\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p><em>Dragon Ball Z <\/em>might be known for its unending power-ups, iconic characters, and funny moments, but it is love that ties the entire anime together. Believe it or not, this is also another quality that might be overlooked by younger viewers, who are yet to fully grasp the concept of sacrifice. Several times throughout the anime, it is love that pushes the heroes to achieve the unthinkable. <\/p>\n<p>An iconic, unforgettable <em>Dragon Ball Z <\/em>scene is where Goku\u2019s Spirit Ball is not strong enough, and he calls upon the entire Earth to release their spirit energy unto him. Moments like this make the anime a perfect mix of adventure, resilience, and of course, heart. And who could forget Goku assisting Gohan to defeat Cell all the way from Heaven? The love the characters share for one another pushes them to do better, and to become stronger. It\u2019s one of the greatest instances of communal acceptance across anime.<\/p>\n<p>Indeed, Akira Toriyama will be sorely missed. And yes, <em>Dragon Ball Z <\/em>successfully eclipsed his other works. But the truth remains that it is arguably his best work, and is one of the most popular anime in history for a reason.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<h2><b>Commercials Cooperation
