With as popular and long running as the Dragon Ball franchise is, it is no stranger to criticism. While the series has gone on to major success worldwide, fans don't always agree about what the best or worst aspects of the series are.
Twitter user @Smugstick jumped on the chain on "Unpopular Opinion" threads on Twitter by asking fans for their unpopular opinions about the Dragon Ball franchise and the results certainly were mixed.
These noted "unpopular" opinions range from support of Dragon Ball GT despite massive fan backlash, choosing less popular arcs as their favorite such as Majin Buu and Universe Survival, support of less popular characters like Zeshin, support of certain fights over others, support for Piccolo above all else, and support for the English dub over the Japanese original.
Opinions wildly vary between each fan, but at the end of the day it's still fun to watch the series and talk about these opinions with one another. Because even if Dragon Ball has flaws, it's still highly entertaining.
