Start at episode 1/chapter 1, keep watching till you hit the end of Dragon Ball Z

Dubbed, I don't care if the Japanese is better, I'm not listening to Masako.

But Namek in the anime is so fucking long. I'd rather just read the manga.

Seed of might edit. They re-color graded the whole series.

Ocean dub
Haters can hate.

If the anime drags for you just switch the the manga till you get to the next plot point

I can't stand how they made all the characters thin and skinny in the new series.
Dragon Ball characters are muscular, get it? Muscular!

I am the BIGGEST ToriyamaFRIEND here probably, and my preferred method of viewing is in Japanese with the broadcast audio, though I have a slight nostalgia for the original ocean dub- specifically, this DVD that was packaged in boxes of Kraft Dinner in Canada that recapped the first two arcs of Dragon Ball Z.
I also do have a deeper soft spot for those shitty DVD singles Funimation did (not the bricks) and have slowly been building a collection of them starting from Dragon Ball.
Really funny thing about them is that Funimation could not legally publish the Dragon Ball Volume 1 'Saga of Son Goku' DVD in the west, so they just started from volume 2. You can get volume 1 but only from Australia (which means it's retardedly rare).

For Dragon Ball Z I've been checking out Dragon Ball Z Jartcut, that tries to remove as much filler as possible. So far I've only watched the Saiyan saga, I'd say it's pretty alright although I admit that some padding during the training for the saiyans would have been good, as it is it feels very fast (mostly an issue in the manga too).
From what I heard they were going to update it when the Seed Of Might Color Correction is released, using it as base.

I own the two Ocean dub DVDs of Dragonball (Not Z) that are the first 13 episodes and the first movie, those are technically part 2 even if not labeled as because they didn't redub it till TV airings.

Yeah, that one isn't hard to find because it got super overproduced. I haven't really considered nabbing it for my collection just because I don't see it going anywhere anytime soon. Right now I'm just waiting for a Saga of Son Goku DVD to pop up (and a "Red Ribbon Army Saga" DVD since those have vanished into the ether).

What I'm more excited to start collecting are the later DVD Box Sets- love how clean a lot of these sets were where you get Volume 1 of a "saga" and then fill it up with the other volumes. GT especially has four slick box sets that are probably the best thing about the show.
