Seriously, an episode of flashbacks? Just when you think GT can't get much worse.

I don't really know why people dislike GT but I actually quite enjoyed this flashback episode it was fitting in my opinion and well let's see if Vegeta actually can make Super Saiyan 4 or not!

The Goku vs Vegeta fight flashback from the Saiyan saga could have been much shorter but other than that, I thought this episode was great. Especially since Vegeta is my favourite character, that goes for other people like me. It goes into much more detail than DBZ ever did with regards to his thoughts/internal conflict over Goku.

^ I agree.

Vegeta is not my favorite character but I still liked this episode, it's not like we get that many flashbacks so who cares about one. And we've got Vegeta's thoughts confirmed which is awesome!
I did not mind this, I minded that previous episode where Goku kept running, that was boring.

I came to post to this episode only to see if others felt the same, that it was not boring.

Best episode in GT so far, ironically because most of the scenes were from DBZ. Is it must me or looks DBZ much better than GT?

Vegeta would never agree to become SSJ4 this way. Toei done fucked his character up.

Flashback episode, Vegeta wanting to achieve Super Saiyan 4 just like Goku. Not bad, was nice seeing the classics. Now back to the storyline.

Showing me clips of things I actually like made GT look worse by compression.

Agreed.
The flashback part was good though.

Too many flashbacks in this arc. Especially in this episode just to show that Vegeta will be back in the game. Also, he said at some point that he wants to see his limits and in the end he just wants to prove to Goku that he is stronger. Nice lol.

Definitely see why people don't like GT that much but I still don't think it is trash. This episode was basically a recap episode. I mean we only have 9 episodes left and we are doing a recap episode and not to mention DBGT already takes shortcuts with its animation. Overall, I don't think that GT has a bad story I just think that they don't have enough budget and time to flesh out the story. They are definitely speed running it GT should have at least been around 80 episodes. There is also too much homaging to the original Dragon Ball which gives it jarring comedy when it should be serious. I mean seriously comedy music playing while Goku fights Nuova Shenron. This guy is the strongest we've met so far and his attitude is definetly serious so why isn't the fight?

Wasn’t expecting a recap episode since there hasn’t been one this entire time, but really when you think about it, it would make more sense if we had a few recap episodes before this one, so just having the one isn’t bad at all. It’s very Vegeta focused too which is nice because Vegeta hasn’t had much focus in GT up to this point, and it’s also a good segway into Vegeta getting Super Saiyan 4 to help Goku.

And I had a feeling people would be like “seeing scenes from Z (the beloved show) next to GT (the slept on show) makes GT look worse” and I can’t say I disagree lol, but those were some amazing looking scenes next to Vegeta in the shower and talking with Bulma, so it’s not like we’re comparing the best parts of GT here lol. It is what it is tho, next time we’ll be returning to the Nova Shenron fight which I’m looking forward to. And lastly, this is my first GT post after the announcement that Akira Toriyama died, RIP to a great one, Dragon Ball was the series that started my love for anime in the form of the first Budokai game many years ago, I might not be watching today without it.

The best episode of GT so far.
They used the beautiful scenes from Z to portray Vegeta's inner conflict. In this episode it might be the only time I truly recognized Vegeta's character.
