... have you seen the whole series yet or are you 
a toonami bum ^^ And how many other anime series 
have you seen?  People die a lot in a bunch of 
anime series this doesn't necessarily make the 
series good or bad.  

"interaction among the characters"
um, I'm a huge dbz fan, but I dont see anything 
even slightly 'great' about the interaction, 
there's just some sweet fight scenes, awesome 
special fx and a decent story line.

"battles have real consequences"
No they dont ^^  The good guys win the bad guys 
lose... end of story.  Everyone *always* gets 
wished back (even goku from the cell saga, it 
just takes longer than usual)

Personally I think the Gogeta cel sold for so 
much because he is the most rare of all 
characters (time spent in the series) and dbz is 
popular right now.  Even if a lot of cel 
collectors had never seen gogeta and dont even 
like him, they still want him because he's rare 
and everyone else is looking for him -_-  

I'm real glad that dbz became popular.  Sure the 
cels sky rocketed in price, but rare cels started 
popping up every where.  In a year or so dbz 
prices will drop dramaticlly in price and all the 
rare cels will be out in the open :)
