This is from 5 years ago but still, it made me think what if they decided to end the series by gathering the DB, wishing for dinosaur bones to be buried all around the world and getting everybody to go live in another universe or something?Gonstead wrote:

GT ended up as road kill while Super has pushed the franchise to hights it arguably couldn't reach even in its prime back in the day.sunsetshimmer wrote:

It's as dumb as this pic honestly.
I'm wondering if it's just silly meme or author of this pic is just ignorant.
It's not a surprise that DB was dying even before GT was made. Everyone is aware of that. And GT actually was meant to be short and low budget and i never saw any proof of it being cancelled (provide one anyone cause i might be wrong).
It shouldn't be a surprise that new series after 18 years gets a movie, seriously. It has nothing to do with DBS quality. If something, it has something to do with Toriyama's influence and time passed since last series.
And that number of episodes argument is also stupid as hell, considering DBS rehashed two movies, was full of filler episodes and slow paced action.
Do i have to remind Goku flying and fighting everyone before tournament? Tournament alone was also long as hell.
It's basically saying DB Kai is worse than DBZ because it shorter, seriously?
DBS had 5 arcs (2 rehashed, 3 original), GT had 4 arcs (all original). That's what matters.
People should already realize DBS had a lot easier way than GT.
btw. DBZ was also cancelled (aka ended) by this logic. It was getting cancelled (aka ended) for years until finally Toriyama cancelled (aka ended) it. But shh, don't tell anyone

Re: Interesting or funny pictures thread
No one said outright it was cancelled but it was the type of show that's made with a long episode count in mind so something clearly went wrong that resulted in it being short. They probably started off with a year worth of episodes in mind before deciding how to move on afterwards and they clearly didn't think it was in their best interest to have it go on for much longer. You can argue that people were getting tired before and that's very possible but it still doesn't change the fact that the franchise was still healthy enough to result in another show and it was that show that put the final nail in the franchise's coffin.sunsetshimmer wrote:GT actually was meant to be short and low budget and i never saw any proof of it being cancelled.

I think it has to do with all 3, the original author being back, there being a huge gap between shows & Super's quality (it's clearly good enough to keep people interested, something GT couldn't do).
It's different because Z lived and died with the manga so without any source material, Z HAD to end. GT on the other hand wasn't based on any ongoing source material that controlled how long it could go on.

GT was very fast from the very beginning. Everything was faster than in Z. And so all sagas were shorter. Fights were short.sintzu wrote:

GT was meant to be short story about Goku, Trunks and Pan just looking after dragon balls, but TOEI felt it is boring and they quickly came with Baby.
Since it was meant to be just about them travelling in space, i can't imagine series having 131 episodes.
I don't have proof that GT was extended, but everything about it feels like it was meant to end at 40 episodes including "A Hero's Legacy" being aired then.
And GT obviously didn't make people much interested because people weren't even interested in Buu saga that was Toriyama's work. DB was airing for too many years already.
If DBS was made back then it wouldn't be popular either. Believe me. Not to mention rehashing two movies and all those recolors that people simply wouldn't like right after Z. I highly doubt it would last longer than 64 episodes either honestly.
The point is GT actually had ending. You could clearly see that this is where GT ends. The same goes for DB/Z.
In Super, ending was rushed as hell with final fight still taking place in last episode. For me, DBS felt like the one that was cancelled and ended quickly (not saying it was).
Nothing about GT felt cancelled to me. Shadow Dragons arc was already hinted at the start of Super 17 saga. Those two were related and plot of last arc actually felt like final arc in every way.

it's not what matters ... the series adapts the movies for those who did not see it
clear .... because gt has no inconsistencies ....
To advance a lot to finish it fast and show little is not a good ...
problems with the rating you are not going to tell me that toei decided to continue the series only to finish it in 64 ... or make a special with new characters to do nothing with that

and I have not discussed that at all .. it's a meme, what is the problem? I never questioned you because you do it you ... it's not good to get mad at a joke

The first is just 2 episodes combined into one. It doesn't expand story in any way.Tai Lung wrote:
The second is just...It's not even Dragon Ball episode lol. DBS only showed in it.
I am talking about real TV specials that add something into plot, like Bardock, Trunks and Goku Jr. stories.

Re: Interesting or funny pictures thread
no .. necessarily the special of trunks and gohan is different from the manga so it is an alternate version apart from that the first goku vs jiren is considered special this was announced by toei,sunsetshimmer wrote:The first is just 2 episodes combined into one.
