Dragon Ball GT: The Xtreme Review


Listen Later

Ever pondered the quirks of the Dragon Ball GT universe and Goku's baffling return to a childlike state? We've got you covered! Our latest podcast steers you through the labyrinth of the Black Star Dragon Ball arc, questioning the missed opportunity of utilizing Earth's Dragon Balls as a handy solution. We tackle the enigma of Goku's character development—or lack thereof—across the series, dissecting the Saiyan hero's journey from a mature champion to a perplexing return to childhood in both "GT" and "Super." Join us as we scrutinize the influences driving these narrative choices and their impact on the beloved franchise.

Prepare to have your understanding of Dragon Ball GT's canon status thoroughly shaken up. We confirm GT's place in the official lore and speculate on how Dragon Ball Super could potentially iron out the timeline wrinkles. Our conversation navigates the choppy waters of inconsistent character arcs, especially Vegeta's power struggles and Baby's complex identity. As we analyze the intricate relationships within GT, we also reflect on how elements like Super Saiyan 4 could be deftly stitched into the Dragon Ball Super narrative, enriching the saga even further.

Wrapping up, we unleash a Super Saiyan level critique of GT's character designs and narrative inconsistencies, comparing the series to its predecessors and successors within the Dragon Ball universe. While GT may have had its ups and downs, it's an indispensable chapter in the epic Dragon Ball story that has captivated fans for generations. So, whether you're a seasoned Dragon Ball aficionado or just dipping your toes into the Saiyan waters, our podcast promises a kaleidoscope of insights and laughter as we bid farewell to GT and tease the exciting explorations ahead in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
