Well, in Dragon Ball Z, there are so many intense battles and dangerous situations. 'We Will Live to Tell the Story' might imply that the characters have a strong sense of purpose. They don't just want to win fights, but they want to be around long enough to tell others about what they've been through. For example, Goku often faces extremely powerful foes. His goal isn't just to defeat them but also to return to his friends and family and share his journey. This phrase might capture that spirit of survival and the importance of the story that unfolds in the series.
Through the characters' will to survive battles. They keep getting up after being knocked down, like Goku against Frieza. This shows they want to live and later share their experiences.
There are no such inappropriate 'Straight Shota' stories in the official Dragon Ball Z canon. Dragon Ball Z mainly focuses on epic battles, power-ups, and the adventures of Goku and his friends to protect the Earth from various villains.
Dragon Ball Z is both anime and manga. The anime was adapted from the manga and they share the same story and characters, but presented in different mediums.
One alternative is to focus on character backstories. You could write about the early days of Piccolo, how he came to be the way he is. Another option is to do crossovers with other non - sexual universes. Maybe a story where the Dragon Ball Z characters meet characters from a magical anime world and they have to work together to solve a problem. Also, you can write about the relationships between the characters in a platonic way, like the deepening of the friendship between Gohan and Krillin.
A Kryptonian in the Dragon Ball Z universe could potentially be a very powerful addition. Their natural abilities like super strength, flight, and heat vision could make them a force to be reckoned with. However, they would also face challenges as the Dragon Ball Z world has its own power scale with ki-based powers. They might have to adapt to the different fighting styles and power sources. Maybe they could learn to use ki in addition to their Kryptonian powers, or they could find a way to combine the two in unique ways.
One interesting crossover could be a battle between Hulk's brute strength and Goku's Super Saiyan power. Maybe in the fanfic, they start off as rivals, with Hulk misunderstanding Goku as a threat to Earth. Their fight would be epic, with Hulk's limitless rage against Goku's increasing power levels. It could also explore how their different universes' power systems interact.
