This forum would be nothing without the buu saga, I mean seriously, almost half of the topics here revolves around the buu saga! Edited by Super Gogito, Aug 29 2012, 03:32 PM.

Frieza or even Cell Saga ending could've been devastating. The former was 20 filler episode fight & ending with that would've been a disaster. The latter was boring one-sided beat down ny a cocky brat which resulted in the death of his own Dad. A fitting ending. Just like Miz, really, REALLY? Fast forward 10 years ahead, with 28th Budoukai, plus inclusion of new character Uub & an epic fight (greatly underrated) which defined the series over the years, while staying true to Goku's character, Toriyama nailed it right! Lol, that is so biased. For me, the series ending where it ended was best. Firstly, because there are a lot of people who liked the sagas that we would be missing out on if not. (though, I'm personally not a big Buu Saga fan) Secondly, the reason the series went on as long as it did was because it was so popular. There would have been no reason for Toriyama to stop. That being said, I would have personally liked the Cell Saga as the ending. (Most dramatic IMO) There was just no plausible reason to stop there.

Chrome Favourite Manga Seven Deadly Sins, Food Wars, Onepunch-Man	I could have been happy with it ending at Cell Saga, but if it did we wouldn't get to see some real character development for Vegeta. Plus during the other sagas we never really got to see the Z-warriors surviving in the general public, like when Gohan goes to school (love it).

Vegeta is a character more interesting in the Buu saga than in the Cell saga, his death is one of the best scenes in Dragon Ball. I like other characters too, like Gohan/Great Saiyaman (very funny XD), Videl, Chibi Trunks, Goten, and Hercule's importance. I love fusions - both Vegeth and Gotenks - and the new Tenkaichi. So don't touch Buu saga please. XD

The best one Favourite Manga They all suck	If anything, the "end of a hero" end fits with the Frieza Saga far better than it did with the Cell Saga. I mean, this hero whose life just ended all symbolically gives his friends a call from the afterlife....I know it's DBZ, but that ain't so symbolic in my books....Frieza Saga's ending was honestly much more dramatic and, in a sense, saddening in comparison to Cell. Afterwards, it could show little scenes of the gang trying to revive Goku, Porunga claiming that their hero wishes not to return (no need for Goku to call up himself), and some future ending style scenes showing how Gohan grew up and how he either overcame Vegeta or how Vegeta settled down and started a peaceful life.... In terms of how far the series should've gone, it should've gone beyond the Buu Saga, but the whole EoZ thing should've been kept (minus Uub, TBH). But the best ending, just barely (just ahead of the actual ending) could've been the Frieza Saga's ending, hands down IMO. Edited by Kyouks, Sep 2 2012, 08:36 PM.
