I haven’t even started this franchise yet, is there any hope of me catching up?

Last season is this year. You'll be fine. Definitely shorter than bleach, Fairy Tail, One Piece and Naruto

Shorter than one piece.

I’ve been watching One Piece since 2003, if I hadn’t, I wouldn’t dare to start now.

Yea, I never fully watched big shows DB, Naruto and OP. I will watch Bleach though.

Shippuden alone is twice the length of DBZ.

And One Piece is twice the length of Shippuden and isn't even done yet.

Dragonball Z Kai isnt really that long at 167 episodes. Like fucking YuGiOh (Just the original Yugi Moto) is longer than DBZ Kai.

I don't know why people lump Dragonball into the super long anime crowds. But there's a huge difference from 167 episodes vs 500 (Shippuden) or 1100+ (One Piece).

Dragonball Z is also quite different. It was clear that DBZ intended to end after Friza was defeated. So really, the anime feels like 3 different anime.

IE: when Naruto grows up that's 500 episodes of Shippuden. Compare to the DBZ time skip when Gohan grows up that's just the Buu Saga, just a piece of DBZ.

I like this spin off even more than the main series, though it stars characters that will later appear in BNHA, you can watch it since it happens before but you will miss some references
