Many people sight Cell regenerating after Goku oblirated his upper body as a plot-hole, but neglect the detail if Cell losing a lot of energy regenerating from Goku's attack. He did not use any energy after he regenerated from blowing himself up... in fact, he got even stronger than better.

The old non-fighting promo art was a real vibe.

But they did regulate them to promo art There's a lot to digest... 1. Piccolo is sweating profusely realizing that going fully clothed was a bad idea. 2. Bulma and Puar, the only non-fighters, can sense Piccolo's great uncomfort. 3. Bulma is in shorts and a T-shirt, indicating she may be...

That was because it's like TFS said "Yamcha doesn't appear often enough". Krillin was a major player up till the Freeza arc despite being far weaker than pretty much any alien fighter, but I'm pretty sure most fans like Krillin even if they make fun of him.

Increased aggression and stamina drain (albeit minor).

Not really when it was already planned. FoNS doing well simply convinced Toriyama to go into that direction faster. Without FoNS, Dragon Ball would probably still go into the 21st Tenkaichi Budokai and make history. Without Dragon Ball, there'd be no Naruto or One Piece plus anime would never...

Fist of the North Star only influenced some of the generation that came after and even then, one of them (Dragon Ball) wasn't directly influenced by it. In fact, it was hinted in an interview that DB was planned to be a battle manga from the start but his editor at the time rushed the shift...

OsamaTezuka Akira Toriyama The rest

Similar to Goku vs. Tien at the 22nd Tenkaichi Budokai; Gohan is the stronger fighter (though in his case, it's mainly due to being more powerful) but Cell has better technique.

He's not dead in the anime since Raditz only destroyed his shotgun with the bullet and he was knocked unconscious when his head hit the front of his truck from the impact. The bullet actually pierces him in the manga thus bleeding to death.

Cell blinks it out of existence.

They don't have the natural drive for it due to being only half Saiyans. It was more of a hobby for them as kids. They weren't that invested in Piccolo's training. Gohan was more gong ho despite not being at all interested in all the fighting, because he's been fighting alongside Goku and co...

Those were rumors. Gohan was leading popularity polls when he took over and the Great Saiyaman arc had the highest TV ratings of the entire series, so Japanese fans actually bought into Gohan being the new protagonist. Toriyama went against the plotline himself at the last second because he was...

I guess slightly more people were watching television during DB. Also, DBZ's ratings dropped hard when Toriyama retconned Gohan as being significantly weaker after the 7 year time-skip and the anime series as a whole never fully recovered. GT initially had some of the highest ratings at the...

Bamco needs to give us an extended version called Super Dragonball FighterZ in 2025 to fullfill the annual contract they have with Shueishia and to hold us over till they finally release the long-anticipated DBFZ in 2026. It's the only way they can redeem themselves for the lackluster new-gen...

You can clearly see Cell smiling while Gohan is struggling since he was only using <50% Cell proceeds to mock Gohan like a madman as he slowly overpowers him, indicating he's still toying with him for a bit over finally going full throttle despite declaring he will end everything Cell...

A lot and especially after the Freeza arc where he comes up with Instant Kamehameha on the spot during the Cell Games. If Goku had the raw power to kill Cell (i.e. SSJ2 Pre-Teen Gohan), he would've ended everything then and there.
