Wow, you must really go and see DBZ again my friend, nostalgia has nothing to do with it

Toriyama didn't use any ass-pulls, the Super-saiyan tranformation was long built upon, the Cell and Buu sagas weren't ass-pulls You might wanna know this that an Ass-pull is something like the current situation where Naruto and Sasuke are fighting on Par with a God-level Shinobi by using powers of whom they have no previous knowledge of

In DBZ, no villain was defeated by an Ass-pull, not Cell, nor Buu,

As for the power-ups part, see cell saga again Goku explains the need for another tranformation pretty clearly, as for SSJ3, that was a major power-up but it has almost zero impact on the series. The whole thing was similar to how Naruto needed sage-mode for Pain and Wind Style Rasenshuriken

If you think i am wrong then point out a moment from dbz that seemed like an ass-pull
