Personal Opinions
Zackarotto
This is actually an extremely touching show for those who grew up with it and have seen it in Japanese as was intended; most people who have will tell you it's one of their all-time favorites, if they've got the balls to admit it. Myself included. Nowadays it might seem like it isn't worth getting into, especially considering that any boxsets are either of horrendous quality or extremely expensive. Reading the Dragonball manga, however, will always be a good idea. The artist Akira Toriyama is respected as the greatest master at what he does by everybody who is drawing manga in Japan today, and with good reason. Plus with the manga you don't have to worry about the "six episodes in a row of powering up" cliche.
