Yeah, you can totally jump straight into Dragon Ball Z without watching Dragon Ball! You'll miss some of the backstory and character development, but DBZ does a good job of filling in the basics you need to know.
I did it and enjoyed every moment of DBZ! The recap episodes fill in the gaps pretty well. Go for it!
Sure thing! I started with DBZ and had no problems keeping up. DBZ's epic battles and Saiyan transformations make it a great starting point, even if you might miss out on some of Goku's early adventures.
