It keeps you watching! That's why I love it. It takes 5 episodes just for Goku to raise his arm.

The new show that has just come out, Dragonball Kai, is basically DBZ but without the fillers and with better looking animation - nothing but the intro and credits are redrawn though. Things will flow much quicker in that series. :)

The same thing when in Captain Tsubasa the soccer ball took a lot of chapters just to cross the field.

Money. Read the manga, everything happens REALLY fast compared to the anime.

It's a show designed for the 5-11 male age group, what do you expect? They'd watch anything as long as it led to a fighting scene eventually.

Because they needed to waste time while the manga was written, sort of like Inuyasha. Except instead of making loads of crap fillers, they just made the characters take ages to power up, gave them extended monologues, etc.

. . Because it makes you question yourself years from now when you're watching a season that why the hell, or how could you be so patient and wait cliff-hangers? It's funny. >_>
Whenever Saiyans recover from serious injury they come back stronger than before. How much stronger?
