None of them really know what they’re doing, but they’ve got the courage—or foolishness—to try. But they soon discover fighting evil takes more than just being brave…

Shippuden alone is twice the length of DBZ.
And One Piece is twice the length of Shippuden and isn’t even done yet.
Dragonball Z Kai isnt really that long at 167 episodes. Like fucking YuGiOh (Just the original Yugi Moto) is longer than DBZ Kai.
I don’t know why people lump Dragonball into the super long anime crowds. But there’s a huge difference from 167 episodes vs 500 (Shippuden) or 1100+ (One Piece).
Dragonball Z is also quite different. It was clear that DBZ intended to end after Friza was defeated. So really, the anime feels like 3 different anime.
IE: when Naruto grows up that’s 500 episodes of Shippuden. Compare to the DBZ time skip when Gohan grows up that’s just the Buu Saga, just a piece of DBZ.
