I've only read the manga and it was fairly unremarkable; stretching a single volume over 7+ episodes would be very dull so I assume they're expanding on the original
I also didn't like it then and had dropped it before the plot started. Idk if they sexed it up or not, but it had me nodding my head the entire time, and the next season (last thing written by Toriyama before his death), is just about a revolution.
E: the pacing was also decc, only the first episode dragged imo
