Wasn’t GT an attempt to do a “kid” version and it basically went over like a lead balloon? What do they think will be different with the formula this time and why do they think people want to see kid fights?
Akira Toriyama’s coming back for a new Dragon Ball series

Gt did not involve Toriyama, and the presence of kid goku is not why it’s bad
Also, Dragonball. It literally started with kids fighting.

Yea, but the context is different. Dragon ball is the journey of children into young adulthood. Daima is literally what GT did. I get it though. It’s meant to look cute and fun and keep a decades old series alive. Super involved Toriyama and that was not good. Entertaining and better than GT, but not good.
The creator being involved means nothing in terms of quality. Just look at George Lucas and the Prequels.

I never watched past episode 1 of GT. Pure trash.

Oh great, another shonen where we get 3 episodes of screaming and bickering before we get to a 5-episode fight

I think Super had a decent pacing and not that typical stalling from the old ones.

Uh maybe in 2000s. Update your references grandpa

This made me laugh. It’s been like 30 years since Dragon Ball was like that.

I remembering loving GT. I loved the pan storyline, and the ssj4 design is sick. Super has never hit as hard as GT did, but thats probably just me
secondaccountlemmy@lemmy.world 2 years ago
The GT ending hit hard and should be canon.
I couldnt follow super. Dropped it when Goku could beat a guy that could literally stop time by just going faster??

GT was superior I dunno why people don’t see that.
