Like many other 90's children, I was a huge fan of Dragon Ball Z. It was flashy, exciting, and downright awesome to watch. However, my own love for the show went deeper then all that. Not sure if I should share this, but I will anyway. Back when I was young, around the age of 5 to 10, I was emotionally unstable, socially awkward, easily prone to rage against antagonistic individuals, and suffered from a hefty case of ADHD. I bring this up not to throw a pity party, but to set the stage for why I loved DBZ so much. I always hated watching injustice. Even today I get pissed off from it. Any glance I catch of it from stupid shows or from the news gets me mad, but now-a-days I've grown up enough to know how to control myself. Back then it wasn't so easy. I was only a boy. A boy with no friends. I did have a father, though. A father and a mother. He was my closest friend for a long time. He was and still is a very good father, which is something not a lot of people have. If it wasn't for him, I would not have the faith I have now and I certainly would have become some delinquent or fuckboy. That's why I loved DBZ. I loved Goku. He reminded me of my own father. He always had a care-free attitude, but he always did his best for Gohan and his friends. Watching him face down heartless monsters like Frieza YET show them mercy reminded me of Jesus, and watching Gohan get mad after witnessing wrongdoing reminded me of myself. In fact, Gohan reminded me of myself in many ways. He too was socially awkward, had a strong love for his father, and was well-mannered. Long story short, I had a personal connection with Gohan and admired Goku HEAVILY. He was my hero, and I'll always love who he was. Sadly Dragon Ball Super doesn't really carry the same hype for me. It's gotten way too ridiculous, what with SSGSS, multiple universes, and other bullshit. It's just too much for me. Too silly, and far fetched. So yea... Much like Gohan, I too have grown up quite a bit... and I wouldn't have gotten to where I am now without my family. I'm so very thankful that I have a wonderful family that has never seen divorce.
