What made GT so bad ?

[Rocketman]

GT Goten's hair is fine by itself, but with Gohan losing his bang and Vegeta's haircut, it's all too similar.

[TheGmGoken]

Widely accepted? By who? You and the GmGoken? Who's everyone that hates on GT Goten's design?

I didnt even say anything.

EoZ Goten is my favorite Goten but GT Goten is my second favorite. Why assume I hate it .

Though bashing his EOZ haircut is highly disrespectful

Buu saga Goten - Kid Goku clone

GT Goten - Gohan clone

EoZ Goten - Actually has his own identity.

I hate them all.

I think what made GT bad was that it was boring. Well, at least the start was. I was never able to make it far due to how dull I found the start. I could watch the whole of DB and DBZ no problem, and my interest in the franchise hasn't waned...but whenever I watch GT, I find my ability to care fading fast.

That is why I will forever praise Funimation fro skipping the entire first arc when GT aired. When they later started airing the "Lost Episodes," I couldn't sit through all of them. The Baby and Dragon arcs are okay and Super 17 rides a very thin line, but the first arc is just... terrible. I believe that GT could have done well (maybe even go on longer) if it wasn't for that arc.

I was turned off of GT as a child, for reasons beyond my own understanding.

I feel like the picture, animation, and sound quality took a nose dive and that immediate sudden change was too much for my little child mind.
I was too used to getting hype to the previous theme song lol.

Beyond that many of the characters appearances changed in a way I didn't like they either looked lame or uncool.

My child brain didn't cope with the change very well.

For the record, I like EoZ Goten's hair because it does give him his own look, his own personality. However, I enjoy GT Goten's hair as well. It was just a little odd that it was slanted though. I think I would have enjoyed GT sooo much more if Goten was more involved. Same with Gohan as well. When Pan snuck on the ship and it left without Goten, I was sooo damn disappointed.

GT Goten - Gohan clone

In terms of personality? How?

[fadeddreams5]

I meant appearance.

I meant appearance.

More similar than his EoZ look, yes, but they are brothers after all!

How was Goten a Gohan clone in GT?

How was Goten a Gohan clone in GT?

Their hair styles are similar, but still different enough to tell who from who. People want to call GT Gohan and Goten clones, but seem to forget that Yamcha is more similar to adult Gohan than GT Goten is. Also, their SSJ forms are clearly different. SSJ GT Goten is actually one of my favorite SSJ designs. Calling GT Goten a Gohan clone is a bit excessive, considering (appearance and character-wise) GT Goten had some pretty bad ass moments in GT when we wasn't getting curb-stomped by S17 or Super Yi Xing Long.

Actually, now that I think about it, having Goten be the one to fight Baby first, then fight Gohan afterwards was a pretty dope touch on the writers part. Seeing the two brothers go at it like that was different, even though Gohan was pulling his punches.

I actually remember really liking GT when I was a kid. I specifically remember enjoying the music, the Japanese score is really nice to listen to. Honestly that's the only thing that spoiled the dub for me, they chose a really weird direction to go with the music - it's really unfitting for the kind of show GT is.

Personal experiences aside though, there isn't much in GT that can't get better in DragonBall and Z except maybe the coolest looking Super Saiyan form.

They already use the same face. This is animation. Giving 2 characters with identical faces a very similar haircut is just bad design decision. They should be as distinct as possible and that's without taking clothes into account.

C'mon.





They look way too similar. It was just a bad design for Goten, even more so considering he finally looked distinct in EOZ. Yamcha at the very least has a large facial scar that sets him apart, neither Gohan or Goten have any special feature like that. Haircut is the #1 aspect to amke them look different and Toriyama went for very similar thing for both in GT design. Puzzling

GT cant even happen. At the end of the Boo saga all earthlings were killed, this included Pilaf. Later they wished back all the good people. So Pilaf would still remain dead. Right? So he could never wished for Goku to be a kid again and GT as a whole could never take place. But that also counts for Battle of Gods.

[ABED]

They're brothers and you can easily tell them apart. This is such a silly reason to hate on GT. They're similar but not the same. Gohan's is more spiked straight up. Goten even looks slimmer than Gohan.

Eh. I've never seen Pilaf as evil, just not pure-hearted either. He's on the borderline. He's more like someone who wants be seen as evil and gain power, but he's probably a big softy on the inside.

Kid Goten and Kid Goku can be told apart too, but that doesn't really make them any less similar in terms of design either. =P

EoZ Goten is the only design that seems its own and distinguishable from others.

[ABED]

The whole point was that Goten was so much like his father.

It's not surprising that they have a similar design given that they are brothers.

[TheGmGoken]

I didn't know it was an issue that a SON looks like his FATHER. Or brothers having similar featurfeatures. In Gurren Lagann Simon looks like Kamina because they're "blood" but not really blood brothers. Goten's whole gimmick was that he was Goku 2.0 but BETTER. His EOZ might be the best(even though it's the same hair just brush or comb down).

Now moving onto GT Goten with slanted hair. Honestly I think it's just his Dbz hair but gel up and slanted right as you can see the Goku spikes still. Perhaps it's the styleststyle now. I do agree it looks similar to Gohan tbh.

[fadeddreams5]

Gohan and Trunks aren't near identical clones of their fathers.

Just lazy, imo.
