    This series has attempted to duplicate the sweet, cute, childlike style and humor of Dragonball classic, along with the great dramatic fighting of Dragon Ball Z, and to say they failed to mix these two things is an understatement. You can tell right that the people just managed to get close to Dragon Ball or even to surpass them unfortunately they did not consider that there are two different tones and moods that can not be combined, unfortunately they repeated far too many scenes and battle sequences to stretch the time and unfortunately the humor became so silly and childish that even Dragonball was ashamed of it. some elements and opponents are completely questionable and the design is undecided of course there were also good moments but the worst moments are so dominant that you simply can not ignore them.The cheap animation of the questionable drawing style of too many contrasts contains the colorful spots are too colorful and the dark spots are just too dark the completely elongated arcs that really like a bubble gum pull and you really have to torture yourself as a spectator so I slow everything down retold. and the poor portrayal of the characters there are some moments when I did not get the impression to see the characters that were actually created in Dragonball and Dragonball Z as well as new characters do not fit into the concept here at all.There is no question that many people do not like so it just emerges from nowhere and my cries for help is addressed the omnipresence of Pan is here but pure torture because nothing can do nothing and their arrogant boastful nature even the child in me or others Children get on their nerves and make the whole story even worse afterwards and unimportant supporting characters have far too much screentime and text that does not match their age and mental maturity plus Son Goku is always, always, always, always, and always the hero of the game History so that the importance of the other characters is zero.Of course there were good moments as mentioned above some ideas were nice the soundtrack is one of the best of the entire Dragonball franchise the design of the Super Saiyajin 4 is really bad ass despite my dislike of the concept for a quadruple super Saiyajin who was the death of Piccolo just a cheap trick to press on our lacrimal glands, however i would be lying if i say he didnt touch me and the end is beautiful and actually the perfect way to end Dragonball after all this time unfortunately you had to scrape through so much trash and more childish Crawl through that's not worth it at all and it leaves only a bitter aftertaste. I could watch the end of Dragonball GT 100 times but the less I see from the rest of the series the better.

    I don't care what your opinion is about Dragon Ball Z, whether you think it's a great show, not a good show, or overrated. In my opinion, Dragon Ball Z is the greatest show/cartoon of all time. You can't deny the legacy of the Dragon Ball Universe with mind bottling statistics like it grossing almost 4 billion dollars in merchandise and being the #1 watched show of all time (cable) through ages 9-24. It was clear that fans always wanted more of Dragon Ball Z. As Akira Toriyama wanted the series to end after the Frieza Saga but fans wanted more. We got the Android/Cell Saga but fans wanted... MORE! And then we got the closing chapter of the show which was the Buu Saga which ended the perfection of Dragon Ball Z. It was clear that Akira was done with the show after the show pretty much over stayed it's welcome. Akira then dumped everything to Toei Animation in thus, creating the mutation disaster sequel that we all know as... GT.GT is a lackluster sequel that fails on all cylinders where almost everything in the entire show is inconsistent with the Dragon Ball universe. Not to mention that all the characters lacks personality and emotion as if they were robots. Every single plot in GT was already used in its predecessors, they basically turned Goku into a child again and sent him off on a journey to find Dragon balls just like Dragon Ball. The show makes the Z warrior's powers look absolutely trivial as if they aren't the strongest fighters in the entire universe as accomplished at the end of Dragon Ball Z, to where they act like they can't even fly (THIS ACTUALLY HAPPENS) and the fighting is absolutely appalling. The only reason people actually watched this show was for one reason.Hope.Nothing more. We wanted more of Dragon Ball! The Dragon Ball universe holds a special place in everyone's heart who watched it. We watched the show just to see our favorite characters. So we tuned in every week hoping this show would get better but it didn't... That's why it was cancelled after one measly year. The bottom line is that GT is a disgrace to the name of Dragon Ball which is why there's a huge controversy of it being cannon. The only small upside I can give to this show is that the animation was pretty stellar at the time, the show had this really dark aura surrounding it and the soundtrack (American) wasn't bad at all.The only advice I can give to the people who watched this show is move on. Pretend it didn't happen and let's all re-live the moments of Dragon Ball Z that we all love.

    I was a die hard fan of Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z. I loved Goku and his friends. The hype online for this show made it sound pretty cool. Super Sayian 4 looked amazing. I couldn't wait. Then the show hit and all the great things that the first two held was gone. So many mistakes happened. 1. It seems like the creators just ripped off Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z and combining the campy fun of Dragon Ball, and the action of Dragon Ball Z. What do you get? Crap. Each show was special for being different. GT brings nothing special of it's own to the table because honestly, there is no story left, just some people who want money. 2. Why is Goku a kid? I loved Goku as a kid back in the day but that was then, this is now. I want the adult Goku. I really can't take little Goku seriously. I mean I understand that's how they figured they could bring back Goku's tail which meant he could go Super Sayian and be monkey, which turned him Super Sayian 4 but then why doesn't he return a kid at Super Sayian 4? 3. The villains in this are horrible. Baby looks like a combination of Buu and Cell. Can't anyone make a new villain??? Super 17???? Android 17 could very well be my least favorite villain in DBZ next to Garlic Jr.(I did like him a little cause it was Gohan, Krillen and Piccolo that fought him and not Goku) The Dragons could have been cool but just were another version of Buu. 4. Our old friends were worthless. Goku and Vegeta are the only heroes in this entire show. In Dragon Ball Z, the others (Gohan, Krillen, Piccolo, etc.) hung around and fought the villain to make time for Goku to arrive. Now they sadly, have been overlooked. Most are old or just gave up fighting. Gohan once had some spotlight but now is nothing but an idiot. Goten I had such high hopes for. While Gohan had always been pretty weak in DBZ, Goten could have been greater then Goku but of course, Goku can never be beaten. One of my biggest problems is Trunks. I remember future Trunks from DBZ and the later kid Trunks and they were awesome. This Trunks is stupid. He's about as intimidating as a paper bag. Pan is beyond annoying too. Pan could have been the female hero of the show which would have given the show a female audience. Instead she's weak and annoying. She can't even go Super Sayian.Sadly the only good part this show is the end which was sad cause it was the end to one of my favorite series. GT was horrible. I think me and my friends could have done a better job. Too bad......it could have been great.

    Eh it's not really as good as the other Dragonballs. The villains are actually rip-offs of other Z villains like Cell, Frieza, and even Majin Buu. With Baby being Frieza's clone, Super 17 being Cell's clone, and the Shadow Dragons being Buu's clone(s). The story is also very bad as it deals with Goku shrinking. SHRINKING!! It deals with him SHRINKING to like the size of an eight year old just to get it going. Let us not forget how weak the characters become. Gohan can't go mystic anymore and is even weaker than Pan.(It's sad I know). Speaking of Pan she was so cute at the end of Z now she's lost all that cuteness and become an irritating,whiny little girl whose sole purpose in this series is to get in the way. Goten doesn't even have a purpose in the series and Trunks... well I don't know what to say about Trunks. GT is just an attempt to milk the popular Dragonball franchise. If you really like Dragonball then avoid this series. It doesn't even feel like Dragonball. I will be fair though as the ending however was really good and is actually pretty sad (At least to me) and the theme songs both ending and opening are better (Japanese, not American). Might've been better if Toriyama san worked on it.
