I've never hated it, but after Super I've started to appreciate it more and more

I wish to be able to see it until the end but I just can’t , and it’s not about what you guys call canon or not ( I never used those cameras ) :D
Exactly, for me, it does what a dragon ball series should never do, and that’s bore me. I’ve never been able to finish it because of that.
Could you elaborate on what you think it does that no other dragonball series has ever done?
Hard to really explain it. Rewatched it with a friend recently in an attempt to see if I never finished it just because I was young. Even then, something, maybe aesthetic or overall feel, just made the show feel so drab. It’s the same feeling I have when I try to watch Man of Steel, the action and plot is there, but it doesn’t entice me enough to watch it in its entirety.

Same here. I think that despite the flaws of both shows. DBGT felt more like a continuation of Dragon Ball than Super does.

No stakes, no tension. Goku only wants the Dragon Balls because Chi Chi shouted at him. The others are content to faff about when they only have a year to find the things before impending doom.

The first episode maybe.... And have to admit SSJ4 had a nice concept... The rest not at all IMO

Son is an immature happy-go-lucky guy so doing careless stuff such as this isn't surprising.

Those are the stakes - Earth will blow up in one year if they don't gather them.
The biggest truths aren't original. The truth is ketchup. It's Jim Belushi. Its job isn't to blow our minds. It's to be within reach.

I feel like watching the gt pilot gives me the same feeling when playing a video game and getting through a ton of the story and for some reason the save doesn't work and when you start it again and see where you are.

Goku being that young for whatever reason just makes it seem like it's starting all over and then progresses into this weird twisted mutation of a show.

As others have pointed out, the Earth was going to blow up. Goku only wants to fight in the ToP because it's an opportunity to fight strong people not because he worries about the universe being erased (that's an afterthought to him)
