Do you like GT?

Please don't force shit down other peoples throats, because at the end of the day, it does not count, it wasn't written by the orignal author, so we don't have to consider it a true part of the story if we don't want to.LeprikanGT wrote:Love it, love it, love it.
Its here, its not going anywhere and YES its counts.
I don't mind GT, it's watchable. I make sure to never compare it to Dragonball, otherwise, I realise how much it just pales in comparason.

I agree. Assuming Viz correctly translated Toriyama's farewell in the last DBZ volume, he says, "From now on, you'll have to look into their world with your own eyes."Rory wrote:Please don't force shit down other peoples throats, because at the end of the day, it does not count, it wasn't written by the orignal author, so we don't have to consider it a true part of the story if we don't want to.LeprikanGT wrote:Love it, love it, love it.

Since GT wasn't written by Toriyama, it's not as solid as anything he writes, but if you want GT to count in YOUR eyes, then it's okay. But not everyone may have the same point of "view."

I think I would have liked GT more if it focused on team efforts. Like Goku and Vegeta finally being a cohesive unit. Trunks and Goten still being a team (why no Gotenks?).
I don't really care for Pan at all, but I like Gill, he is ok.
And if General Rildo is stronger than Buu, how come Freeza never noticed him? Freeza was the intergalactic ruler.
I don't really mind the character designs. Vegeta's hair cut aside, his new outfit is pretty cool, and it's my second favorite outfit of his behind Cell Saga Armor.
For the most part, I found the Black Star stuff pretty boring. The Baby stuff, which I had never seen until now is ok so far. I kinda like the Super 17 stuff, although it makes NO sense. And I have only seen maybe 3-5 episodes of the Evil Dragon stuff, so I can't give you an opinion on that yet.

I dig it, especially the second half. Like many others it took me a long while to be able to enjoy it though. Back when I first got into DB, I would read about it, and I expected it to be something it just wasn't.
It's still fun on the same level as many of the movies. I like some of the character designs and redesigns quite a bit. Mr. Satan's giant head is hilarious.

If I had to complain about the story, it'd be that the Baby Saga is the Frieza Saga's younger brother. After Goku is sent to Sugoroku Space, the story began to drag.
And Baby Vegeta is extremely ugly. WHy couldn't he stay like this:

I easily liked GT. Its plot kept me very interested, but like people have said, as long as not too much thought is put into it. The theme songs and music were easily WAY better than DB and early DBZ (before Buu), and it didn't take 30-some episodes to get done with one fight (looking straight at the Freeza fight). Overall, I felt the pacing to be much better than DBZ and I rank it second best (after DBZ's Buu arc).

I enjoyed the GT series mainly for the villains (and their cool designs), the different style of action, the fresh new animation (although still inferior to DB and DBZ, in my opinion), and the wonderfully outrageous plots (that made me chuckle when I first watched it).
But I mostly enjoyed the GT series for it's awesome soundtrack. I wonder why we haven't seen an official CD soundtrack release yet.

I like and enjoy GT. It introduces some elements that I enjoyed (such as The Black Star DragonBall Galaxy Hunt, The Dragons Saga) even if the execution of said elements could have been done better.
I've always liked the DragonBall style of things, so having a child Goku didn't hurt me. Nor does it hurt me that he's got the spotlight in the show, since he's actually my favourite character...
I liked the conclusive ending.
Didn't like Pan. Liked Gill/Giru.
The series' Japanese score and soundtrack (as said times before) is fantastic, and the best IMO of the three. Other then some pieces (mainly character themes) from the other two.
