Every single series is pretty much the same plot but with a different head villain who nobody can beat. That’s all that happens, some new enemy comes along and starts killing people until a fight gets organized and then it takes about 100 episodes of fighting to actually kill the fucker, most of which is just Goku standing there explaining what his next move is going to do and having Piccolo or somebody else repeat it ten times before he just stands there huffing and groaning like he’s taking a basketball sized shit for 20 minutes.
Then after he uses it, there’s a few episodes of repeated frame punching and shooting laser beams, the bad guy dies and all the good guys who died get wished back to life. It’s the same until some new bad guy comes along. Stop watching it.

You, sir, have described entire DBZ series perfectly.
But DBZ was meant to just have action than plot itself, and I’m pretty sure the creator was aware of this as the series was targeted towards very young audiences.

It should be better since it’s going to be remade.

I don’t care if it’s kids entertainment, just like with the Garfield Movie, it’s no excuse for being shitty.
As far as TV shows go, all age groups have their average shows, their good ones, a couple of gems and the ones that are a complete piece of crap. Dragonball Z is one of the bad ones.
Besides, the only reason I’m writing this is because so many people over 10 years old love it.

Bleach and Naruto are the same way. Most shows geared towards young children like that are made that way because the driving point are the characters themselves. The audience just wants to see more situations involving their favorite characters that shows off their powers.
They are repetitive shows that continue because of the main goal of money. At least they are fun to watch because it is just crazy action, but they do lack fulfillment, I do admit. Granted, back when I watched it, the standards for those shows were lower, and it reflected upon it with variable animation and sometimes bad art. I was also younger, and didn’t care. Going back, I still enjoy the show for nostalgia’s sake, and I see all of what I enjoyed and what was good about it.

Yeah the plot does stink, toriyama was getting lazy after the frieza saga. I still enjoy the whole series though. For the action.

Considering I find the characters in Naruto annoying, I don’t watch it very much. I do keep up with it, and it seems to follow the same formula of fight a powerful enemy, become stronger, fight a powerful enemy...fight a powerful enemy, end.
It’s what drives such stories. Nothing wrong with it unless you absolutely can’t stand a story with rather weak character development or otherwise 2-D characters.
