Dragon Ball is not based on realism

 Dragon Ball is often, actually, most of the times, considered of being a serious show/comic when it really isn't.
If you look at :Tori: 's character you will notice that it is all a VERY fantasized and non-realistic piece of art.
That's the reason I personnaly like it so much and don't relly on PL's or steady facts. I just think: ''What do you expect? It's DB after all, any possibility stands'' and deep down I actually really like that! That's why it differs from Naruto, Bleach etc. so much!
It lacks the seriousness. . . In a good way! :D

On short words, DB isn't supposed to be as serious as it is thought to be, or realistic. And that's what makes it so special!
Except if you look at it from an anime angle where everything IS serious and supposed to be realistic which in my opinion ruins the innitial DB idea. But the anime rocks BECAUSE of that!

Opinions?

 I completely agree

I think a lot of anime and manga are like that. I guarantee the fans look into power levels and exactly ow strong people are A LOT more than the writers. I doubt AT expected people to get into the power levels of all the characters, that's why there are so many fallacies.

That still doesn't take away the fun in finding out the power levels of all the characters, I personally enjoy using mathematical equations to find out curtain feats characters can do. But, it's still fun to sit back and enjoy the show.

 I agree with you to an extent, but I can understand that some can't help but become passionate enough about it. It's just easier on the eyes when you have less inconsistencies.

 While I can see the reasons for only looking as far into a matter as you believe the author would, I don't see it as a reason for ignoring evidence. For instance, not taking the multiple implications of Pui Pui's power seriously because "Toriyama dosen't think it matters" as how would you know? And why would he bother to bring forth the implications if he didn't care?
However, it's really situation dependant. For instances, the unrealism argument works well in arguing for training gains for characters such as post-Kaio Piccolo, Android Arc Piccolo and 28th TB Goku, of which many would usually go against the implications of their strength with the argument of "they can't gain that much with that training and such a short amount of time".
