A DBZ Forum Can Be A Great Source Of Information

By Lana Bray


Dragonball, Dragonball Z, and GT were all very popular anime shows and manga. Akira Toriyama wrote an extremely popular and loved anime series that went on for years and is still going. There are very few that last even an eighth as long as this has. It is for this reason that you can find a DBZ forum to your liking if you look hard enough.

It is not that they are hard to find, quite the contrary actually. There are a great deal of these sites available. They come in all shapes and sizes. There are video sites where people make music videos to scenes from the cartoon. There are informational sites in which people gather information related to the series and try to put it all in one place. A sort of encyclopedia.

When the series hit it big in Japan it had already had a rather large following in the United States. This was even before Akira Toriyama, the creator and writer of the anime, decided to bring it across the ocean to the states. But once he did he realized just what he had. He realized just how popular Dragonball would be.

In Japan these stories were very common. The underdog taking on huge foes and odds largely not in the heroes favor. These types of stories made for great television shows and cartoons. Akira Toriyama knew this when he created Dragonball and that is why he made Goku such a happy and fun loving soul. Something everybody could relate with.

As the series came to America and time went on its popularity grew even larger. In time it would come down a bit and then rise again. It is one of those shows that will stand the test of time, it already has. The Internet has given it a revival of sorts. Various types of websites feature Dragonball as their main subject matter.

The video games are a bit of a different animal all together. A couple of them follow the series in various parts and a couple of them go off on a tangent and have nothing to do with the story at all. Over the years the amount of merchandise that has been sold is staggering also. There has been a great deal of everything coming out of this franchise.

The fans have kept the show alive in their music videos, fan art, fan stories, and various other topics on various websites run by fans of the show. Akira Toriyama would be proud. He would be happy to see what has become of his creation. How people all over the world have taken it to new heights and how they continue to create new materials.

A DBZ forum can take a simple discussion topic and morph it into a very large discussion that spans months. That is what forums are great for, giving people a place to talk. They can discuss the show with other people who love it just as much as they do and in that the show lives on. And it will for a very long time to come. It will live on.
