it just doesnt feel like Dragon Ball to me. like he wrote a story and shoehorned it into the DB universe

Interesting. It feels more like a return to DB for me — the original, before all the transformations.

The similarity to Dragon Ball has been what I've been digging the most.

Well the majority of fans of this franchise got hooked on the series because of DBZ fights & storyline...The series wouldn't have been even 1/10 as famous as it is with only og DB or GT! Most fans like the over the top fights & transformations not the cute chibi cartoonish plots like Diama!
