I've heard DBZ is better. But if DB is worth watching I don't wanna miss out on it. What should I do?

DragonBall is more lighthearted and funny than DBZ. It's definitely worth watching. I like DBZ better, but I can definitely see people liking DragonBall more. You should watch both in order, it's definitely worth it.

If you're older than 12 skip the whole Dragon Ball saga and watch some anime that's worthwhile.

Death Note, Full Metal Panic, Trigun, Black Lagoon there are tons of great series.

Watch Dragonball

it's got more comedy and doesn't take itself so seriously until the later saga's. I actually kind of liked it better then DBZ to tell you the truth.

With that logic you should stop watching anime altogether and quit kidding yourself.

Considering they are entirely different, you should watch DB if you get the chance. But skip DBZ for the love of everything holy... because it is just TOO loooooooooooooooooooooooooong. This new DBZ Kai seems promising though.

It really isn't that bad if you're watching it all it once. It's kinda obvious where the fillers are and you can skip them. Although that show killed me when I had to watch it week-to-week on TV.

Read the manga for dragonball if you don't want to miss anything, anime just takes too long to finish, then go for DBZkai.

Watch Dragonball. It doesn't take itself as seriously as DBZ. There are chuckles to be had

I was watching Dragonball Z until recently. I'd watched all of Dragonball, but I stopped watching about two-hundred episodes or so into Dragonball Z, when they spent three entire episodes powering up a single attack.

200 episodes? That's a lot of seasons. And lol at 3 episodes for an attack. Bet it'd hurt.

Wait... nvm, it was more like 80 episodes or so I think. I was getting it confused with Dragonball. It was at the end of the Namek saga is what it was.

I first watched DBZ Ocean dub's version of the beginning to the Ginyu Saga. Even though I ended up watching Dragonball last, even after some of GT, I still liked it. It's basically one Anime. It's definently worth watching.
