i wouldnt go so far as to say Buu shouldve never happened. it just couldve been done soooo much better. dont make trunks and goten ssjs, which wouldnt trivialize it.

This would have benefited the Buu saga greatly imo. I liked the saga for the most part, as it introduced us to a lot of background history in the DBZ world. It had it's high points.

the series completely undercuts every race besides saiyans. that really limits your characters and your stories.

To be fair, Toriyama wanted the Saiyans to be known as THE perfect warrior race. That's just what they were throughout Dragon Ball. I don't recall the Namekian race being undercut, but they're definitely a notch below the Saiyans. Frieza's race was very powerful also. (I don't believe their race was ever given a name?)

the Nameks were worthless during that saga. The series did a horrible job of keeping Piccolo relevant. He couldve very easily been another hero to lean on and had be a threat, but he really fell into the background quickly after frieza.

i understand the Saiyans are #1. thats fine. but you need something else to sustain story. this is why we got 7yr old ssjs, because they needed more relevant characters and it could only be saiyans at that point.

this also goes against their own history. frieza AND his henchmen looked down on the saiyans as a race. there were once a large number of races that were stronger than the saiyans. i have no issue with saiyans being #1. it just happened too fast.
