Ugghh...time to begin my favorite pass time. Arguing.
Are you serious..? Literally almost the entire series consisted mostly of villains whooping the Z warriors asses. Or are you saying that eventually a bad guy should have killed everyone and ended the series?
Pikkon is not a real DBZ character, he was just filler. Akira did not create him and is simply there to fill up time while Akira continued to write the manga(which was being written at the same time the show was being made, so logically the show couldn't get ahead of the manga because then they would be making episodes about things that Akira hadn't even written yet).
The sayians were clearly more powerful and yes they did usually(almost always) end up being the main focus of all the major fights but to say something like no nonsayians contributed to fights after the sayian saga is kind of ignorant(no offense). DBZ had an entire supporting cast of characters that although some may not have been exactly main characters each and every single one of them certainly had a purpose and most certainly at one point or another made a difference.
Oh no you didn't...you didn't just say that...
Anyone remember Piccolo, was he not a merciless killer in dragon ball who lived alone and only thought of plots to murder goku so he would be able to conquer the world? Now if my memory serves me correctly did he not eventually grow attached to Gohan in a fatherly type role, eventually befriends some of the Z warriors, and also end but fusing with Kami in order to attempt to save the world? Yeah that's called character development right there.
Although I can't exactly justify this one I can defend it by saying that Akira once said in an interview that the super sayian gene was one that is passed down and once someone becomes a SSJ they're child(only if they were conceived after the transformation) would be able to achieve it much easier. Thus the reason why Trunks and Goten got it much easier than their fathers.
This was not a dumb move at all, it was a realistic one. Lets remember that in all the time you don't see in DBZ(the first four years of gohans life, the year and a half in between the end of freiza saga and when goku comes back, the 7 years between cell and buu) gohan was always studying and doing school work, if you compair the time he worked for his education and the time he spent fighting obviously the education time would greatly out weight his training time, and once Cell was defeated and Gohan was officially the strongest fighter to ever live, what purpose was there to continue training? Absolutely none, except for maybe his own enjoyment which he did occasionally.
Ehh...oh well just needed to let my feelings be felt.

Quote:Gohan giving up fighting to do school. Dumbest plot move ever. I mean, hell. You just saved the universe. You are potentially the strongest person, like, ever. So what do you do? You go to high school and stop training.
