What do you think might have happened after Dragon Ball GT?

Post by GurixDr34 » Mon Dec 29, 2025 5:17 am

If there had been a sequel to Dragon Ball GT what do you think would have happened? would you consider the GT movie A Hero Legacy Canon or not? what exactly happened to Goku? did he die? did he become a guardian? did he go to train with Shenlong? could there have been new Villains in Goku absence? what do you think?

I think the Dragon Ball AF Fanmade Manga the Young Jijii version fits better with the end of GT and with Hero Legacy since characters like Gohan and Vegeta are the ones who protect Earth in Goku absence but even though in the GT Canon the story ends with Goku Jr in Hero Legacy but it would have been interesting to know what happened to Gohan Vegeta Trunks and Goten in the GT timeline

With the exception of Trunks, they became Time Patrollers.

Most of them probably died from old age, and they may have bump into some minor threats during time. Goku probably stop by to visit from time to time. We will never get a sequel to GT set before the ending, so you have to go to fan fic for that.

If GT continued after the Shadow Dragon defeat, I am guessing it would continue with Goku Jr, Vegeta Jr and whatever descendants and students exist. There are those that doesn't die from old age such as Master Roshi an example or longer life span such as Dende.

In the GT movie it looks like Goku is alive.

Honestly the GT movie A Hero Legacy or 100 Years Later was very good i would have liked to see an anime with Goku Jr and Vegeta Jr i think there was potential to have created a story there

Goku is likely a sprit rather than actual living being. He is likely a part of the Dragon Balls.

Can DB Online and a post-GT world co-exist?
What would be the main things to reconcile? besides Goku going away and the saiyan families drifting apart.

My idea of a GT sequel would be one set after the 100 year time skip's tournament with Goku Jr. and Vegeta Jr. as its main stars, alongside completely new characters. Pan and Roshi (if he's still alive) would fill in the gaps of what happened during those lost 100 years. As for what happened, considering the world was safe, I assume that Vegeta and the others were able to handle whatever threat came their way, with or without Goku's help.
