Kishi revolutionised the shonen genre with this beautiful idea *end of sarcasm* this is not really different than DB-version, instead of emotions and crying and whining they dimply screamed and screamed and....oh wow, they screamed :I at least they had f*cking muscles and looked really badass with their SSJ-looks :) Lol I was a big DBZ fan when I was like 13 or 14. Then I saw Goku's fight against Frieza and then gave up. The whole fight in the anime was less about fighting and more about staring at each other's eyes for extended periods of time. Granted, that was the weakness of the anime, not the manga. But still, DBZ's fight scenes suck compared to Naruto's. Hand-to-hand combat is way too fast and just looks like a flurry of random kicks and punches, while all the moves utilising ki look virtually the same. Frieza's Death Ball and Goku's Spirit Bomb, Kamehameha and Vegeta's Final Flash, Krillin's Destructo Disc and Frieza's version of the technique, they all look virtually the same, with more or less the same mechanics. So over time I got bored with DBZ. Now I wonder how that anime got so famous in the first place. How does that relate to the topic lol?
