It shouldn’t even be a discussion at this point, but, we couldn’t just say it right away, we had to prove we’re not biased.

Dragon Ball is popular because of the kids, first and foremost. The kids got into it and grew up, remembering what a great show it was. But it wasn't just the kids— teens and adults also liked it.
