Well, I Finished GT. It's Certainly a Mixed Bag. There's Probably No One Who Hasn't Seen GT Or Heard All About It At Least. And There's Plenty of People More Qualified Than Myself but I Thought It Be Fun to Try Reviewing It Anyway So Here I am.
<<Spoiler Warning for Dragon Ball and All Things Related.>>
I will Try to Lay Out My Thoughts On it In a Pros and Cons List.
Here is Some of Its Stronger Points. The Pros:
1 It Takes Place Post Z Timeline. Which is Nice Cuz I HATE That Super Is Forever and Eternally Stuck in A Damn Time Skip. And Because
...
of That Time Goes On, People Have Gotten Older Which Brings Us to My Second Pro
2 The Ending Is Well... The End of the Journey There's a Huge Time Skip at the End Where Pans an Old Woman and Goku's Great Great Grandson. and Goku's Finally Sorta Died Being One with the Dragon Balls. It's Not the Greatest Ending but I Decided to Count It as a Pro Cuz Its got Some Finality to it. Which Is Not Real Common in the World of Dragon Ball. Which Brings Us To My Next Point Once again
3 Limiting the Dragon Balls made Sense Because It Doesn't Take Long for the Dragon Balls Power to Become a get Out of Jail Free Card.
Now For The Cons:
1 Goku Is Turned into a Kid at The Beginning and Remains a Kid for The Rest of The Damn Show! (With The Exception of His SS 4 Form) Which for Me Pretty Much Kills the Whole Show.
2 It's Not Written by Toriyama Which is Not a Con in of Itself but The Fact It's Not from Him Gives the Whole Thing a Filler feel. Like It Goes with All Those Movies That Don't Really Happen. (But Being Written By Toriyama Certainly Didn't Save Super).
3 The Arks are All Over The Place and Never Really Feel Like a Proper DB Ark But I suppose Thats Just an Extension Of the Previous Point.
In Conclusion:
All and All. With GT Being The Weird Mess It Is and Super Being Driven By Money rather Than Creative Vision Your Best Bet as a Dragon Ball Fan Is To Say To Hell with Super and GT and Just Watch DB and DBZ. Where Toriyama Ended It In The First Place. Though I will Say Dragon Ball Super Superhero and Dragon Ball Super Broly are pretty Good Movies.
Well Thats My Two Cents.
