This show is sort of made up of three adventures involving the dragonballs. In fact, Z and GT would see virtually no humor of this type with the exception of Master Roshii. Why? I have no idea, but it would make a reappearance here and there near the end, but nothing like it was in the beginning. As the show progressed though it would more and more rely on action to the point that near the end of the show it closely resembled Z, most of the pervert nature of the show would be gone near the end. The show started out as more of a comedy, a comedy with at times quite perverted humor in it.
This one follows the young boy Goku as it chronicles his friendships and adventures while finding the mythical dragonballs that number seven and when gathered together summon the dragon, Shenron to grant one wish. Though I can still say quite easily that GT is the worst of the bunch as while this one needed a continuation, Z did not. However, upon watching this entire series on DVD uncut I now have to say that this one is equal or maybe a notch or two above Z. I do not know if my tastes have changed over the years, but once I used to say by far the best incarnation of Dragonball was Z.
