My all time favorite anime series is Dragon Ball Z. I started to watch the show in about grade 4 and I thought it was quite unique to see how people can have special powers. Their was a group of protagonists called the Kai, and there duty was to protect the world and the people around them. One guy in particular was Goku. Everybody wanted to destroy him. But he came over obstacles and usually prevailed.
They had to go on a “Road of Trails” to get more powerful and beat their enemies who got more powerful. The Kai, had six guys who always saved the world from being destroyed. There was Goku as I mentioned before, Gohan, Vegeta, Tien, Yamcha and Piccolo. Vegeta before was one of the most dangerous villains out their. He fought Goku and took was taken to the limit. It came to one last Kamahma, a beam that came out of their palms, to finally beat Vegeta. Vegeta eventually came to his senses, and became a hero as well. But their was one thing that all of these Kai had in common, they were all Sayians. A Sayian possessed unbelievable power that was only unleashed when they had no more power left in a battle or was pushed to the limit. A Sayian could go from Sayian to Super Sayian six, which was the highest.
But for these guys to be heroes, there had to be the anti-protagonist. There was Frieza, Cell, Broly and Boo. All of these guys pushed to the Kai to the limits and beat most of them. But the leader of the Kai Goku, always found energy and surpassed them with vital beams or with will power and encouragement from his peers. But thee was one thing that all of these villians had in common, they could all transform just like he Kai could, but some could be more powerful and transform bigger.
But as we all no, no villain or villains ever come out the winner. The protagonist always find a way to victory.
This is one series I recommend watching. Although it is not on TV no more, I recommend going to go rent it or buying it. It is one anime series that you will enjoy watching.
Do you think that anime series have many archetypes?
