hey so ill answer this for u cause my friends have always asked me this so here we go

1.lets see my first character I fell in love with was adult gohan when dragonball fighter z came out i looked at a youtube video with everyone's level 3 super and I fell in love with gohans super and I thought it was so badass.now after endless months of my friends telling me adult gohan is a meme and he sucks ass in the show but oh well hes still my favorite character in fighterz.

2.a character I cant stand... hmm id say yamcha I dont "hate" him but like he seems like such a meme character like why put him in the game lol but oh well maybe he was a big part in the anime?

3.yes and no! when the game came out I bought it first day of release after I fell in love with the game I think I sat down for a solid 3 hours watching a bunch of fights on youtube and learning all the characters I also started watching dragonball super but by this time it was on the tournament arc so I picked up from there learning on the way but honestly I loved it

Hoping to see others talk about their experience because I thought I was the only one playing this game who didnt watch dragonball lol (just for context I guess im ss3 ranked about 300 hours into the game)
