    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.
