The last we see of Goku, he’s a phantom in a crowd that can no longer see him. We then see Goku make a pilgrimage to Hell to say goodbye to Piccolo and visit Kame House one last time to spar with Krillin. Upon defeating Omega, he disappears and all that’s left of him is a gi which Vegeta tells Pan to cherish. The Goku we see in the GT ’s final episode is “different.” According to a staff interview, Goku has apparently undergone a change, one that has fundamentally altered his character after seemingly succumbing to Omega Shenron’s final attack.Įverything revolving around Goku is utterly surreal, lending credence to the idea that he is no longer the same man we’ve been following. There is one key aspect that ties all these uncharacteristics together: Son Goku. It is uncharacteristically confusing, uncharacteristically sentimental, and uncharacteristically morbid. Via (Dragon Ball GT: A Hero's Legacy Full Movie) More important than anything, however, GT is as direct a direct sequel can get. Not only that, GT looks like Z and a fair amount of the staff carried over into the series. Dragon Ball GT works on very consistently inconsistent logic only found in the Z anime. That does make sense, but GT is part of Z ’s anime continuity whether you like it or not, and that makes it official. It only makes sense that the anime penned by Toriyama, that actually follows the manga, is the series’ true sequel. Toriyama wrote nothing for GT and the series is filled with plot hole after plot hole. You’re probably wondering, “how can this be?” You’re not wrong to, either. That’s right, GT is more “official” as a sequel to Z than Super is. 20 Toriyama Is Responsible For Mustache Vegeta GT may not have aged particularly well, but it’s, by far, the most interesting series in the franchise. Spoilers: It’s still not great, but what is great is all the behind the scene information that’s recently come to life. Time has been kind to GT, though, and the onset of Super has given us all cause to look back and reevaluate it anew. You may even stumbleupon hardcore super fans of the series who actually fell asleep watching episodes of GT. Most fans consider is totally skippable, others refuse to admit it exists. Notorious for its (lack of) quality, Dragon Ball GT has evolved into a series non-grata within the franchise. Upon getting the news that Toriyama would be ending the manga at the end of the Buu arc, Toei decided they were going to milk the Goku train just a bit longer by spinning off into an all new series. What exactly is Toei supposed to do? If you’ve been lucky enough to have never heard of the series, Dragon Ball GT is the anime only sequel to the massively popular Dragon Ball franchise. DBZ was going strong, but Toriyama stopped it with Buu. Step into the Grand Tour, a brand new series begins, some more money for Toei and their friends.
