Akira Toriyama’s coming back for a new Dragon Ball series
The new Dragon Ball series marks the return of kid Goku (and friends).

I’ve been watching dragon ball z since I was a kid. I never watched all of dragon ball, but I read the manga.
Dragon ball super was pretty good, too.
I may have missed a movie here or there, but I’m happy to see more dragon ball content.
Same. I still have on a hard drive old 320x240 mpg and avi clips from Japanese VHS's of DBZ/DBGT from back when we'd have to fucking import them in order to watch them, downloaded from KaZaA/Morpheus/Limewire back in the late 90's.
As long as Toriyama is involved in it, I'm down for more Dragon Ball until I die.
Edit: Fuck it, proof lmao
You didn't have to provide proof, but you did. Thank you, kind stranger.
'Tis the data hoarder way!
I’ve never seen GT. Is it worth it? I’m pretty sure toriyama was not involved with it.
If memory serves, Toriyama did provide character designs and the like, but yes he otherwise declined to participate.
Is it worth viewing? YMMV. In a post-DBZ world where it was 'You get GT or you get nothing cause the franchise already ended' it 100% sufficed, even if it wasn't as great as DB or DBZ. Now-a-days with it being 100% not canon, and us having Super, this new one coming, films, etc, it can be a bit more lackluster. If you love Dragon Ball because "sweet anime fights", you'd have zero problem with the show at all.
I remember the biggest issue people had with it (back when it came out when i was a teen) was that Goku was a kid again after a full series (and a bit) of being an adult, so the vibe was always a bit..off. Now with Muppet Z-Fighters™ here coming out (assuming it'll be good, of course) people may look back on GT a bit better, who knows.
Either way its like 3 seasons so it's not a long watch!
Dragon Ball canon is so crazy already. I basically just ignore it. I don’t care what’s canon or not. I just want cool fights. It sounds like this show is for me.
100% then. Has some great enemies, plus several returning ones you'll recognize.
I think most if not all of the old movies aren't canon anyway or in some form adapted into the show.
Yeah, I actually meant the dragon ball super movies. But dragon ball canon is all over the place, so I’m really just in it for goku doing the goku thing.
The two Super movies are I think canon, introducing Broly as well as another character that has been teased into the canonical world. I'm not following the manga though, so no idea where it could even go from here either, but I do hope they continue the series. Overall I think Super is the best Dragonball we've had so far. It's just been too short.
