Still, Dragon Ball Super is quite an interesting series in its own right.

The anime is been done for quite a while now, and, while we’ve had more canon animated content in the form of Dragon Ball Super: Broly, the manga has essentially taken the reins of the DBS brand for the time being. No one could have possibly expected for Dragon Ball Super to suddenly end with the Tournament of Power, yet, here we are. Uninspired, derivative, and generally filled with lackluster fight choreography, Dragon Ball GT was a lousy note to end the series’ anime continuity on. It perhaps goes without saying, but Dragon Ball GT was fairly unpopular and remains widely disliked within the fandom, even if its reputation has improved slightly within recent years. RELATED: Dragon Ball: 5 DC Heroes Piccolo Can Defeat (& 5 He Can’t) The last episode of DBZ even transitions directly into the first episode of GT with a next episode preview at the end of the former. Toei’s original animated canon for Dragon Ball consisted of the first Dragon Ball adaptation, Dragon Ball Z, and finally Dragon Ball GT. It’s worth noting that while GT is not canon to the main series, it is canon to the original anime’s continuity.

Completely rooted in new material, GT would be an anime-only follow-up to the anime. In spite of the series’ decreasing popularity following the end of the manga, Toei went ahead with one last sequel series: Dragon Ball GT. Akira Toriyama may have been done with Dragon Ball by the end of the Buu arc, but Toei still wanted to milk the dragon for what it was worth.
