Born in 1980 I still think I was during the DB-->early DBZ in the target demographic. I can't speak of the manga but on the anime I saw on TV it felt to me that they went from an original traditional storytelling manga to an industrial thing where a pattern of a generic story was repeated and dragging into tons of empty episodes[1] whose sole purpose was to sell child and preteens brain time for advertisers. Even I as a preteen I felt robed and insulted in my intelligence at the time and I don't consider myself a genius. [1] most of them were just several minutes of generic blabla without any action nor story development
