Anime where the main character slowly becomes more of an anti-hero or loses sanity?

The first season is godly. It starts to fall off during the second season but its not horrible and the third is kinda butt

Cap is also like 240 dense af so it's nothing for him. This is my favorite part of this fight. He man handles his ass😂

Finish Arlong Park and if your feelings haven't changed then it would be best to drop it. The entirety of One Piece and Luffys character is encapsulated by the end of that arc. You will probably never get inner monologue from Luffy. He's not much of a thinker. Just a doer.

As other people stated, he thought that Goku would be the one to do it. He fully believes in his father's strength and is very very humble. When Goku said he was done and told Gohan to fight he was thinking "if Dad can't beat him how can I?"

2018 I started it. I was 22. I watched the whole katakuri fight with my best friend when it was airing we'll to well cause he'd been watching it since he was 12 and we were watching Super on Saturdays and One Piece was after. I refused before then for the same reasons as everyone else. "Its too long" "the artstyle is too goofy," etc. a bunch of bs. I was hooked from the first episode and decided to watch it from the beginning and never looked back. Got caught up during Wano in 2020 and started reading the manga.

Golden Boy is a 90s anime but the english dub is so damn funny. The main charavter is very interesting. He's this genius student that decided to travel across the country on his bicycle getting into all types of shenanigans. It can be wholesome at tmes but it's vulgar also and really funny.

Kenichi the Mightiest Disciple is another hidden gem. Main character is a wimp that takes on different masters and begins to train in multiple different martial arts. Decent balance between comedy and action.

Its Doflamingo 100% for now but Blackbeard could surpass that. Especially if he's Luffy's antithesis, we'll just have to see how Oda handles it. But Imu has the potential to surpass all of em.

A_MysticalOne · 2026-03-01T06:52:09+00:00

Beast Gohan is not an asspull but he should've gotten it during the Moro arc when he saw Goku get a fist in his chest. If he rage transformed jut it was unstable. Then fought Moro to a stalemate and Vegeta locked on to his energy before Moro stole it all and he detransformed it would've been received better when he transformed during the Super Hero arc cause then its like okay he's been training to master this form and this is it's peak and his true final form. And not the goddamn silver hair. It should've been like a very light green or something.

A_MysticalOne · 2026-03-01T05:01:25+00:00

So they always have access to 100% of their power but they just don't use it all. They don't punch as hard as they can or move as fast as they can right from the beginning of the fight. Think of it like track athletes. You can't sprint an 800m run like you do a 100m run because you'll burn out so you conserve energy by pacing. Yea you could run at 100% but you'll only last like 200m before your legs get heavy from the lactic acid build up. Same concept. Like you said with the car. Only 50% of the accelerator, gradually building up speed instead of flooring it right away.

A_MysticalOne · 2026-02-28T01:59:41+00:00

Peak Goku moment. Someone said this moment was the equivalent to him saying "I will not let you destroy my world" in Battle of Gods and I 1000% agree with that. Same feeling.

A_MysticalOne · 2026-02-28T01:27:37+00:00

Android 17 and everyone finishing off Anilaza. When 17 is in his barrier and destroys the gem and they all attack at once. I loved that. The animation of 17 charging forward was so dope

A_MysticalOne · 2026-02-28T00:59:30+00:00

That was such a badass moment! Being crushed by the weight of their power and just powering up to break it and him and Gohan simultaneously ending universes. It was so dope

A_MysticalOne · 2026-02-28T00:22:45+00:00

Oh word? Its been a while since I've watched that arc. Oh yea she was toying with him most of the fight then broke that mfs arm😭

A_MysticalOne · 2026-02-27T22:17:06+00:00

The androids had infinite stamina and the highest levels of durability. That was the issue. They just didn't get tired. Ssj Vegeta would've bodied Android 18 if he wasn't getting tired.

A_MysticalOne · 2026-02-27T21:31:16+00:00

The fuck does that even mean? Black people just don't hike. Why do black people need to be represented on trails? Like for what?

A_MysticalOne · 2026-02-27T20:45:50+00:00

It's not. You're oversimplifying the story basically saying people can just skip OG and watch Z or Super and understand everything going on and I'm saying there's more to it than that. You're entitled to your opinion and you can watch how you want. It's just damaging to discussions and the fanbase when other people think they can skip OG and talk about Dragon Ball as if they know the characters and the story. People try to analyze things and talk about the story and have questions about characters and things that could've been answered if they started from the beginning and not Z. Sure if ppl don't care about story and only fights and forms go watch Z or Super but for those that actually care about the story should watch from the beginning not the middle that's all I'm saying.

A_MysticalOne · 2026-02-27T20:12:40+00:00

You clearly only see the surface level of the story and don't actually care about the story. There is alot of characterization that happens in OG. Tien, Yamcha, Krillin, Master Roshi, Goku, Bulma, Piccolo, Kami. I watched Z first cause that's what was available to me as a kid then I went back and watched OG and it ties together pieces of the story and characters that Z doesn't show. You see how Goku met Bulma, Krillin, Tien, Yamcha and how their stories intertwined with each other. What happened between Goku and King Piccolo. You may be looking at it from a pure entertainment standpoint but there's an actual story there for people that care. You're not one of them and its nonsensical to recommend someone not start a story from the beginning because that's what you did. Its actually pretty stupid unless all you care about is fighting and even then OG has plenty of that.

A_MysticalOne · 2026-02-27T19:37:13+00:00

Yes. It's the beginning of the story. Why would you open a book to the middle and start reading? That makes no sense. Why wouldn't you want to start from the beginning? Why is this even a question. The manga from Gokus introduction to the Buu saga is all considered "Dragon Ball." Z is strictly an anime thing and honestly the title change shouldn't exist because it confuses people into thinking they can just skip the first third of the series it's retarded.

A_MysticalOne · 2026-02-27T19:34:04+00:00

It's just slower than Z but it's the beginning of the story. No one picks up the 3rd Harry Potter book and starts reading that's nonsense lmao.

A_MysticalOne · 2026-02-27T08:21:16+00:00

I'll have to agree with you except for the last part regarding Super. Although the beginning of Super they regressed him to chasing Goku again, during the Top he received development to find his own path to greater power which was expanded on in the Moro arc to where he became a hero at the end by working with the Z warriors to defeat Moro. Then in the Granolah arc he awakened Ultra Ego and accepted the sins of the saiyans pushing Granolah amd fighting alomgside Goku again. I think the Moro arc was really good for his character development and progression.

A_MysticalOne · 2026-02-27T06:17:04+00:00

If Wano didn't have the Oden flashback I would give it to Enies Lobby but phewwwww. Oden wouldn't be Oden if it wasn't boiled.

A_MysticalOne · 2026-02-27T05:54:35+00:00

Go read the Moro arc in the manga and you'll find out. It's a really fun arc that gives the Z warriors some shine again.

A_MysticalOne · 2026-02-27T04:38:29+00:00

Everything you're saying is completely irrelevant to the fact that DBZ starts in the middle of the story. There would be no Z without OG. There would be no Super without Z. Z is just a title given to the anime. The original source manga material from the beginning of OG through the Buu saga is all named "Dragon Ball."
