[Dragon Ball] DB fans generally dislike GT, and I’m sad about that.

Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

I watched it twice.

1: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’m sorry.

Bird Master

6: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx6

>>1

It’s because of DAIMA that it became “Look at it, Toriyama-sensei!”

2: Japan Otaku Reviews

I must have watched all the episodes in real-time, but I have no memory of the 17th episode at all.

I only remember the baby and the evil dragon.

3: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>2

It ended abruptly in episode 4 or 5, so it can’t be helped.

4: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

I can’t say it out loud, but I like it more than the baby.

5: Japan Otaku Reviews

Didn’t Toriyama-sensei like GT?

139: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>5

Honestly, I think what I want to do is an adventure story without a fixed vertical axis, similar to the very early stages of GT.

7: Japan Otaku Reviews

“Is it a monk or something with two laps?”

I can’t do it.

8: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx12

Regardless of the presence or absence of DAIMA, GT will not be reassessed.

9: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

I love GT, Z, and Super all of them!

Do you have a problem with that?!

143: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>9

Die.

10: Japan Otaku Reviews

I like the cool Goku from GT, though…

It’s sad that even though they look like children, they’re actually adults inside.

43: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>10

Without the jokes, the nostalgia is intense.

That Goku is currently the most childish in all routes.

11: Japan Otaku Reviews

If there’s another simultaneous broadcast, I wouldn’t mind doing a third round.

12: Japan Otaku Reviews

I like the theme song, the design of 4, and the creepy vibe of the baby.

Why does it stretch out even though it’s original?

13: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

The bread is too erotic.

23: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>13

I want to suck on small breasts.

14: Japan Otaku Reviews

The charm of GT lies in its story structure and emotional portrayal.

Especially, Goku’s character depiction is deeper than in Z.

You don’t understand the weight of Goku fighting while carrying the world in the form of a child.

15: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

Most of the people who criticize GT are just those who “came to dislike it because of the online trend.”

It’s just those with a twisted Z faith making a fuss; how many people are actually discussing it after truly watching it?

In the end, we’re just hitting it on a whim.

16: Japan Otaku Reviews

Little Goku lightly brushed off the kids who attacked him after being brainwashed, saying, “I don’t remember raising you like that,” and it was cool.

17: Japan Otaku Reviews

I like the part where Uub merges with Buu.

In the last special, it was fun to hear Goku talk about being in the future during the ending, it made me cry.

20: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

>>19

Then, isn’t DAIMA easier to watch since it has only a third of the episodes of GT?

27: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>20

If you try hard, you can see it in one day.

21: Japan Otaku Reviews

I recently had the chance to revisit it, but I ended up feeling disappointed compared to what I remembered…?

What is it about using an entire episode for Gogeta trying to fuse again after being unfused and ultimately failing?!

22: Japan Otaku Reviews

I felt the seriousness of the second half of the baby arc and the direction of the final battle with Issei Ryu from the staff at that time.

26: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>22

To be honest, I think the animation was comparable to Demon Slayer.

37: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx8

>>26

I know what this is; it’s called flattery leading to death.

30: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx6

>>22

I remember feeling rather exhausted around Ichihoshi Ryuu…

24: Japan Otaku Reviews

Super Saiyan 4, honestly at first glance it was “??”, but the more I watched, the more I felt “this is the evolution of the Saiyans,” and I grew to like it.

Getting rid of the blonde hair and regaining a beast-like quality is cool.

It feels like a design for adults.

25: Japan Otaku Reviews

It feels like GT emphasizes the parental sides of characters like Goku and Vegeta.

The memories of going to the beach as a family warm my heart no matter how many times I see them.

28: Japan Otaku Reviews

Pan-chan ❤

29: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s lonely that Goku from GT looks like a child but sometimes has the heart of an adult.

Especially in the final episode, the farewell scene of “See ya! Everyone” is packed with a way for Goku to end that you can’t experience in Z or Super.

31: Japan Otaku Reviews

I thought that doing something like tempura rice bowl, katsudon, and oyakodon twice wasn’t really necessary.

Only for the tempura bowl.

32: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think the only time you can experience feelings of sadness and aftertaste in Dragon Ball is in GT.

A quiet ending that is not found in Z or Super.

That’s why, looking back now, what sticks in my mind is GT.

33: Japan Otaku Reviews

Right after Z, the voices of the people inside are incredibly young.

34: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx7

Ichihoshiryuu must be really exhausted.

There are traces of effort in just a small part, but other than that, it feels like everything from the direction to the animation to the dialogue is so strange that it’s as if they were drinking and got drunk.

41: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>34

I realized during the last Abema broadcast that my character is unstable, and it was not good.

Don’t suddenly get casual and say things like “I’ll kill you” out of nowhere.

42: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>41

What’s wrong, Goku? Did you die?

35: Japan Otaku Reviews

The beauty of the baby arc is that the enemies are not just strong foes but carry the historical background of the Tsufuru people’s resentment.

It feels like you’ve been picking up on little tidbits about Z a lot.

36: Japan Otaku Reviews

The structure of GT, which quietly takes on the journey of collecting Dragon Balls once again, is truly a return to its roots.

In the beginning, there are a lot of gags, but that’s also effective as a gap leading to the serious developments in the second half.

38: Japan Otaku Reviews

Goku riding Shenron and disappearing.

The ending that is neither “dead” nor “alive” was so beautiful that I was at a loss for words.

39: Japan Otaku Reviews

People keep talking about the OP, but the EDs are also great songs that are really exciting!

40: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think GT was “the Dragon Ball to finish things off.”

Chō is to continue, and GT is to conclude.

Both are correct, but the quiet conclusion of GT is really moving even now, and it resonates even more because of my age.

46: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

>>40

I think that’s only being discussed in the final episode…

44: Japan Otaku Reviews

At the time, GT had an overly high hurdle of being seen as “the continuation of Z,” but when you look at it calmly, it’s made with incredible attention to detail.

Especially with Goku becoming a child, his humanity has been showcased, and the escape from the feeling of being a combat machine in Z was remarkable.

45: Japan Otaku Reviews

At least try to put in some effort for a Big Bang Kamehameha in the One Star Dragon Battle.

47: Japan Otaku Reviews

It feels like the entire sequel is struggling with how to handle Buu and Uub.

48: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

Ah, is this an anti?

49: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx8

Well, I think they’re just pretending to compliment while saying something completely absurd without really looking at the content.

50: Japan Otaku Reviews

I realized once again that a sequel starting with the protagonist being debuffed is boring.

51: Japan Otaku Reviews

It seems like you’re mostly writing by yourself.

52: Japan Otaku Reviews

Please accept this, baby!

53: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx8

It feels like there’s a lot more to praise if you’re really going to compliment someone!

It feels like they’re just saying vague things overall.

54: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

I don’t dislike GT, but I can’t deny that the early adventure arc is way too long.

The tempo is bad, and when I see that after Z, I just go “Huh…?”

68: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>54

Originally, it started from the staff’s nostalgic desire to return to those roots (and Toriyama himself prefers that over battle-centric plots).

The beginning was long, and then halfway through, I thought, “Isn’t this kind of subtle?” so we ended up changing our approach.

72: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>54

The poor pacing of the Majin Buu Saga felt worse than GT.

76: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>72

The tempo of the GT is much better, you know.

55: Japan Otaku Reviews

Watching Super Zero’s 4 Goku made me realize that there are a lot of cool scenes.

There are just many bad parts.

57: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>55

In terms of materials alone, there is great potential for a fantastic result if we do a remake.

I mean, let’s do something about this with a game!

56: Japan Otaku Reviews

Honestly, the appeal of the enemy characters is a bit weaker compared to Z.

The baby was still good, but Super 17 and the evil dragon have a weak impression, including their designs.

The idea isn’t bad, but the way it was presented could have been better.

58: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>56

No, the evil dragon’s design was really bad.

59: Japan Otaku Reviews

There were some good parts in the depiction of the bread, but there were also moments that felt a bit hysterical or went off track, which made it a bit frustrating to watch at times.

60: Japan Otaku Reviews

Trunks is almost just a degraded version of Future Trunks…

61: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

The bread isn’t that hysterical, I don’t think.

In the beginning, there’s some hint of it, but in the second half, the spots to hit the bread decrease, so it becomes a character that says more sensible things.

65: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>61

In the simultaneous commentary on Abema, it feels like Bread has been reevaluated as a rather decent character.

62: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Grrrrr

Bread is dangerous! Bread is dangerous!

63: Japan Otaku Reviews

Trunks was finally characterized in Dragon Ball Super.

I think a buddy story with Goten would be really popular.

64: Japan Otaku Reviews

I like the character’s setting, but I feel that the handling is poor.

66: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Even if we give them a hundred steps, it’s fine to say that the script for Super 17 is a bit strange and that they want to highlight Super 17, right?

The Evil Dragon Arc is the official Super 4 Negative Campaign.

67: Japan Otaku Reviews

The super E-SHinron battle had an amazing bank.

I think the same was true for the Slam Dunk anime during that time, with the banking and flashbacks being intense.

71: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>67

First of all, Z’s animation isn’t impressive at all.

The level of the conversation is terrible.

It’s not like GT is particularly bad or anything.

69: Japan Otaku Reviews

The conversation with Gil is somewhat noisy.

70: Japan Otaku Reviews

Did Goku die?

86: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>70

Eshinron’s inconsistent tone is so cute, isn’t it?

73: Japan Otaku Reviews

Can someone fuse with me!?

74: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

If we’re talking about enemies in GT, Baby seems to be getting more stable treatment from the official sources lately.

75: Japan Otaku Reviews

The good thing about GT is that the airplane doesn’t break down.

77: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

If we call it a super 4 negative campaign, it’s still mild, but the reality is that it’s a negative campaign against everything, so the evil dragon arc is one where no one benefits.

78: Japan Otaku Reviews

Super 4 isn’t performing as well as I expected.

The animation is just so-so.

The character’s personality tends to fluctuate from episode to episode.

I think the surrounding issues are the main problems, while the elements and the main story itself are pretty good.

79: Japan Otaku Reviews

The tempo, or rather the number of episodes, is small.

80: Japan Otaku Reviews

I love GT, but at the same time, I think it’s fair to criticize it since I watched it with a child’s heart, questioning why Gohan didn’t become Ultimate. However, there are many depictions in GT that can only be seen, like Piccolo being with the Earth and having the final conversation with Gohan through telepathy.

81: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s not that I have no complaints about the contents of GT, but…

The one that has dropped the most in evaluation is at the point when the Buu Saga ended.

I think the viewers were also tired of Dragon Ball.

82: Japan Otaku Reviews

Goku’s death → becoming invincible and blasting the Spirit Bomb → I like the flow of leaving this world.

The process leading to death will be regarded as not seen.

83: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

The expression “red monkey” was really spot on for the amazing performance of Super Saiyan 4.

The cool image in the game is overly exaggerated.

87: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>83

The part where the late OP transforms one after another is really good.

84: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

Baby T is really tiring.

Just like in Wataru 2, the development where a reliable ally gets brainwashed and turns into an enemy can’t just be easily killed off, so it ends up being quite boring.

85: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

Recently, the end tends to get criticized a lot.

It really felt like the Dragon Ball content was ending properly with that.

It may feel clichéd now when looking back at it normally.

88: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Piccolo’s death connects to what happens afterward, so I can’t outright deny it, but setting that aside, I feel that the reason he decided to die, which involves the Dragon Balls, isn’t that strong since they can’t really be gathered again.

Well, I think to myself that if it’s at that level, it’s something that commonly happens, so maybe it’s just nitpicking?

89: Japan Otaku Reviews

The idea that the final enemy is the Dragon Ball itself, and that Goku departs with Shenron, is a great conclusion.

It’s also sad to spar with Krillin to draw the line.

90: Japan Otaku Reviews

Even as a child, I was wondering why Number 17 now?

91: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

The disgraceful behavior of Frieza, Cell, and Goku, which they have probably erased from their memory as fans who openly declare their love for things like Hell’s Buster and GT.

92: Japan Otaku Reviews

When I was in the early grades of elementary school, I watched GT first instead of Z, so I thought Dragon Ball was like this until around the point of Kai.

93: Japan Otaku Reviews

When I was small and watching anime, the first time I was confused was with that Big Bang Kamehameha thing…

94: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

When I see child Goku doing strange things, I can interpret it as him being mentally immature, but when I see the Super Saiyan 4 appearance doing trivial things, the visual is a bit harsh.

95: Japan Otaku Reviews

Why do evil dragons appear when we often used the Dragon Balls to save the Earth and the universe?

99: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>95

Because I wish for a gal’s panties…

105: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>95

The good or bad of wishes doesn’t matter, but I like that the wish of the only ally, the four-star dragon, is to rejuvenate the evil character, King Piccolo.

107: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>95

I used it too much in a short period.

96: Japan Otaku Reviews

Who is this person?! The vibe of Ultra 4 Goku that was revealed in advance as an eye-catcher.

97: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

When I was doing a live commentary, I thought, “Was it really this intense?”

I’m not a fan of GT, but even so, it was pretty crazy to this extent!

98: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

Vegeta’s new technique is absolutely useless, it’s too much.

102: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>98

Finally, Super Saiyan 4 Vegeta has caught up and is making a contribution…

There was a scene where someone was lifting a building or something and couldn’t move, and I thought, “Is it really possible to not have that much power!?”

108: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>102

Even a Super Saiyan can’t lift 1000 tons…

100: Japan Otaku Reviews

You must not pretend that the Sugoroku space doesn’t exist.

103: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>100

That’s relatively calm, isn’t it?

There is no gain from looking, but there’s no loss either.

101: Japan Otaku Reviews

The Para Para Brothers are the better ones.

104: Japan Otaku Reviews

Hey

Where did the anonymous person who was eloquently praising GT go?

106: Japan Otaku Reviews

GT Goku’s intelligence fluctuates wildly.

109: Japan Otaku Reviews

The baby after becoming Super 4 is too tenacious!

112: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>109

If Goku didn’t brag when he became Super 4, he could have easily defeated Baby.

110: Japan Otaku Reviews

The original Goku is quite a serious wise man, but in the transition series, isn’t there less of a sharp-minded Goku like in the original?

113: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>110

First of all, it seems like the original creator dislikes Goku like that…

115: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>113

If you make them a sharp and cautious character, then of course they won’t be able to move around as a protagonist.

118: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>115

As a result, is that Goku who forgets his grandchild and mistakes names until the very end?

111: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Even though I follow the rule of once a year, being treated as using too much in a short period is just too unfair from the gods.

114: Japan Otaku Reviews

Just looking at it lightly, you’ll wonder where Saiyan power even comes from!

120: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>114

It might be from that since it was singing about the power of the Saiyans in the movie’s theme song.

116: Japan Otaku Reviews

It looks like a building resembling Fuji TV, which is not quite fitting for Dragon Ball.

117: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

I don’t get picked up much, but I really like the Golden Oozaru.

119: Japan Otaku Reviews

Although it’s a complete original work, there’s no need to stretch it out, yet they insert something like a board game.

121: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>119

At that time, it was common for 90% of the anime to be unrelated to the story, with only the remaining 10% actually advancing the plot…

122: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

Dragon Ball fans dislike GT, or rather

Aren’t there Dragon Ball fans who dislike GT constantly lurking in the secondary area?

125: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>122

The reason they use the term “red monkey” is that.

131: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>122

There are quite a few people who like GT when you search on X or similar platforms.

It’s at least far better than here.

123: Japan Otaku Reviews

I wanted to see the strengthening of egg-fried rice.

124: Japan Otaku Reviews

The GT characters in DBFZ were really great.

Even the baby is super cool.

126: Japan Otaku Reviews

I quite like the adventure part, but it’s Dragon Ball, so there should be fighting!

I thought it wouldn’t go over well with that demographic.

127: Japan Otaku Reviews

I should have been looking at it for several months, but I can’t remember any of the content at all.

128: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

I feel like I understand the reason why I couldn’t fully agree with the statement that Ultra Four is cool after rewatching it on Abema.

It’s simply because there weren’t many cool scenes during GT.

134: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>128

The peak of their appearance has passed, and now it’s only going to decline from here…

Instead, the entrance is a perfect 100 points.

129: Japan Otaku Reviews

Since the material is good, let’s make full use of it in the game.

130: Japan Otaku Reviews

The direction of the endings is all really great.

132: Japan Otaku Reviews

You’re not alone.

133: Japan Otaku Reviews

I enjoyed it when I was a child and watched it on Animax.

I don’t know if I can endure it now that I’m an adult.

135: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think the opening theme of Ora GT is a good song.

137: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Better than DAIMA.

138: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>137

Wohoo!

140: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>136

Honestly, this is something that can’t be helped.

After all, the original Dragon Ball could only do things that were like fan fiction or a smaller reproduction of the previous story…

141: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>140

After the original cell saga, well, that’s true…

142: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>141

What on earth are the artificial humans and the sealed demon after a chapter that depicts the threat of aliens…

144: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

I do think it’s true that GT is being criticized online without having seen it.

When I actually saw it, it was even worse than what was said online… The final episode where Goku is held responsible after the Evil Dragon saga was not moving at all.

145: Japan Otaku Reviews

I personally really disliked the fact that something as easygoing as Dragon Ball became something you couldn’t use casually.

149: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>145

Recently, it gives the impression that there are works that casually use bloomers for trivial matters, and it’s okay not to worry about that.

146: Japan Otaku Reviews

There seems to be a recent trend of slight re-evaluation of DAIMA, partly because it was a bit off.

147: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

>>146

I can’t do it because I’ve accumulated so much negative energy from Abema’s broadcast…

148: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

The main storyline seems interesting, but the actual content that was produced is considerably mediocre, that’s GT.

I find DAIMA somewhat ambiguous because I don’t really understand what the main point of the story wants to achieve.

That’s the impression.

150: Japan Otaku Reviews

Left behind something that won’t fade away with the opening, Pan-chan’s voice, and Super 4.

151: Japan Otaku Reviews

I really dislike GT.

152: Japan Otaku Reviews

Compared to Daima, the battle scenes in GT are more interesting! But I’ve been denied that claim and I’m confused…

153: Japan Otaku Reviews

There’s no way it wouldn’t be interesting, but as I start watching GT, more and more negative energy builds up, and I just end up admiring Baby, who is one of the few good parts.

154: Japan Otaku Reviews

Rather, what do people who like GT like about it…?

There haven’t been any specific examples mentioned in this thread either…

155: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>154

The appearance and setting of OP and Super 4.

157: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>155

What about the others?

156: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s needless to say that the opening song is a masterpiece.

The ending theme isn’t as well-known as the opening, but it’s a really great song too.

158: Japan Otaku Reviews

GT’s songs have a strong 90s vibe overall.

Super nostalgic.

159: Japan Otaku Reviews

When this song played in the final episode, the feeling of “Ah, Dragon Ball has really come to an end…” was so overwhelming.

Gradually, my heart is captivated → The final episode, where a rusty machine gun comes in a double shot, is intense.

160: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Did you come suddenly?

161: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think liking a song and liking a piece of work are different things, but there are people who mix them up.

162: Japan Otaku Reviews

The game staff’s enthusiastic PV makes GT look too interesting.

163: Japan Otaku Reviews

I don’t understand why viewers who endured the Z series’ late Boo arc are upset with GT, which is more tolerable in terms of pacing than the Boo arc.

164: Japan Otaku Reviews

Isn’t it because the Buu saga is more interesting than GT?

165: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>164

“Say that when you’re asleep…”

166: Japan Otaku Reviews

The sense of a masterpiece imagined from the OP’s visuals.

167: Japan Otaku Reviews

What the hell, Vegito, Super Saiyan 3, Ultimate Gohan, it’s exciting, I’ll kill you!
