Because of this, it feels like an extended episode of TV as opposed to a proper feature film. The movie makes no real effort to fill in its audience, aside from including a brief and rudimentary prologue that isn't really relevant to its narrative in any meaningful way. I like the vast, colourful universe, even if I don't wholly understand it. I've only seen a few episodes of the source show's first season but I do have a rudimentary understanding of its various 'sagas' and have played several spin-off video-games. It introduces a bevy of fan-favourite characters and exploits their past exploits, essentially, to invoke audience nostalgia. There's perhaps less action in 'Dragon Ball Z: Battle Of Gods (2013)' than you'd expect, with the majority of its run-time actually being dedicated to oddball comedy instead of fantastical fighting.
