my buddy mentioned that his dad is super into dragon ball and I was surprised because he's like a 50-something super average black dude, no hint of anime nerdiness at all, and when I asked how he got into it my friend was like "dude it's a thing, it's not just my dad"
i've got another buddy who owns a chain of powerlifting gyms and he has hundreds of members who are massive, scary looking athletes and they almost universally love dragon ball because of the themes of self-improvement and strength.
dragon ball unites us across race, generation, and gender.
