I never even watch super hero because of the trash animation. Broly was the cleanest best animated movie that has been created today. That's a fact. Then they took 100 steps back and made super hero in that 3d w.e it was animation. I'll never watch that.

I remember reading Dragonball for the first time in '85 from a bootlegged manga. The gag jokes in Dragonball were also fun as a Dr. Slump reader in those days. More than Goku's fighting ability was his ability to make friends with everyone that isn't evil. Dragonball helped people to bound. That is why Dragonball was awesome.

The English dub hasn't even introduced that many people to the series. Next to the US, UK and a few other handful of countries it wasn't aired everywhere. The Spanish dub had a much larger reach. Entire South-America, Spain and other Spanish speaking regions. The Arabic dub was also aired everywhere in the Middle-East and North-Africa. There's a English, Spanish, French, Arabic, German (and many more) dubs.

In my personal opinion, the Spanish Latino dubbed version is much more better than the original Japanese version and American dubbed version. And it's all thanks to legendary Latino voice actors, Mario Castañeda and Laura Torres. Castañeda's voice as Goku and Bardock is very well known. His screams and voice are very more powerful and show more feeling like you are the character. And, Laura provides the voices of kid Goku, kid Gohan, and kid Goten and her screams are also more powerful. And she even cried during the scene that she had recorded in Dragon Ball where Goku reunites with his grandfather Gohan, because it reminded Laura of her grandfather and during an interview, she couldn't stopped crying for a few hours during recording. She lost her grandfather at a very young age. And she even expressed her emotions again in Dragon Ball Z as kid Gohan in the scene where Piccolo dies after saving Gohan
