It's timeless.
How is DBZ still so relavant till this day???!

It uses tropes that are so prevalent in regular day life - especially in sports.
Everyone can point to a person in their life who's like Yamcha. Everyone can remember times where a person "ascended" and got better like a Super Sayian.
When you watching NBA videos, Kobe Bryant reminds you of Vegeta with his work ethic and overall mystique, etc.

A nikka used to draw them back in 99. Remember walking down to the library to print out images and watch dbz episodes on Netscape. Good times

DB pushed anime' popularity through the roof. It was also a cartoon that was "masculine", muscles, exploding planets, lots of yelling, blood, energy beams, powering up, explosions, etc. Perfect for North Americans. Most Shonen manga/today are influenced by it. It might only be second to Akira and Astroboy in terms of overall influence. Great video games too and a dedicated fanbase.
Dragonball Super is fuego, early bits are suspect (just watch the movie versions of Beerus and Golden Frieza arc) but from Champa's introduction on to Goku Black and Tournament of Power it's as good as DBZ. Imo overall its better than Z. Even Goku's English voice actor agrees with me, not that it means anything, I just have good taste.

DBZ I think the fact that characters lose and some die was the fact it was so popular in America. Like growing up you never had cartoons where heroes took L's from the bad guys. Hell some of them died trained in the after life and came back stronger than ever. I'm sure my kids are going to be fascinated by this anime just as much as I was.
Super on the other hand has it's moments but nowhere near close on DBZ levels.
