DBZ: what it did to me.
DBZ is not only a cartoon show, it's CRAPPY cartoon show!
Now that i've said that, I'll say what happened to me.
April 12th 1996: I sat down to watch my first episode of DBZ. I was in third grade. I saw a half naked guy on TV (Nappa) with big musles screaming at the top of his bloddy lungs. I turned the channel after a few minutes.
Five minutes later: I turned back to the channel, and saw a short guy with pointy hair, and a taller guy with an orange gi on. Then I saw a bald guy, and a little kid, and a green guy. They were in a desert. I wastched the show. Then it got over.
One minute later: I found out it was DBZ20XL marothon. That's what the called it one that day, cuz DBZ, and twenty extra large episodes.
I watched twenty straight episodes of it.
Two weeks later: I watched it again. I began to know the characters.
A year later: I stopped watching DBZ and got on with my life.
Two years after that. I had a dream about Piccolo and watched it one more time, and I was hooked for three solid years. I was so completely obsessed, it was all I talked about, all I thought about, and I'm telling the damn truth when I say i dreamed about it every goddamn night until i was fifteen years old. Every night.
I wrote like, a hundred fanfictions. That's all i drew for three years straight. (holy #$%@!) and I talked about it all day long, everywhere i went. I soon, had no friends. Even in my sleep, I thoght about the characters. There was no moment I didn't think about it.
Then, it was Christmas morning, 2002. I woke up to find a Treasure Planet PS2 game under the tree. For me. I screamed out of joy and played the game. I saw the character Jim Hawkins. I compared him to DBZ.
Goodbye DBZ...
Four months later, I was semi-happy child, not obsessed with anything but boys (normal) and I liked a bunch of different things. Luckily, DBZ wasn't one of them.
Yesterday: I watched the show. And laughed by goddamn F**kin brains out.
