Dragon Ball Watching Order Guide

[F4e]

I guess it is time to update this with Resurrection F and Dragon Ball Super, huh?

I'd hesitate to put Dragon Ball Super on anywhere on your watching order. We have no idea how long that show is gonna last. It could end up overlapping GT and royally screw up your watching order. But if you don't care for continuity that much, just place it after Resurrection F and call it a day.

It was nice to have a order guide like this one but updated for new people who want to watch Dragon Ball for the very first time (with movies).
You're right that we don't know where Super will go, but right now we can just insert it after DBZ and manage an updated watching order guide.

Super/GT simultaneously

It's not exactly lined up to the release dates, but they hover around the correct spots. Also, it doesn't include corresponding anime episode breaks; I kept it to the source material for everything.

I watch all episodes of Dragon Ball, then Z, then GT, then Kai, then read the whole manga and finally watch all movies and specials. I'm crazy. When Super finishes, it's gonna be after Kai, but before the manga.
