I only say this to clear up any fanboy worshipping of Toriyama Akira before it gets out of hand, I like the guy but Dragon Ball was far from his magnum opus.. Dr. Slump, now that's something.
Ahh far from fanboy worship. I actually hate dragon ball and consider it among the worst anime in existence. This just makes it all worse for me. When I said that Goku's and Zidane's tail has no reason I meant that in the story they are the only people with a monkey tail so being a Genome/Saiyan is not an answer

Sorry, not seing it.

I try to avoid saying things like this was bad or that sucks. Opinions are opinions and mine is in no way better than anyone else's. I do think there are certain aspects of 9 that are objectively better than those of 7. 7 does a lot of things better than 6 but fails in some aspects compared to 8. But it is subjective how important these aspects are for different people. I also didn't like Necron. But I didn't like Kuja either. Zorn and Thorn however are the best. I kinda hope they get into XIV somehow. Does emperor Varis have jesters?
