Dragonball GT: Why were people against Son Gok

Dragonball GT: Why were people against Son Gok�return to child form?

I don't see anything wrong with making him a child for the first half of GT, but the second half should have had him wished back into Adulthood. Since the later half of the show was suppose to emulate DBZ, then having regular Adult Goku would have complimented that feeling.

Another problem as suggested was giving other characters the shaft. I know that the fans want Goku to be the hero, but the other characters should have been allowed to pursue the other Shadow Dragons while Goku pursued Syn Shenron. Maybe even have Oolong meeting the dragon he created with his panty wish.

Time obviously, 15 years to become the strongest force in the entire Dragonball existance, which if Toei figured that out, Gt would of had decent fights as Goku would have to work his butt all the way to the top since he could've had a power stunt for becoming younger. Those matches from Redgic and Rilld, he was playing with them. That's sorta lame.



To be fair, you asked "Why are people against Son Goku's return to child form?" You're asking my opinion, how can you say that when I leave one?

I think Toei did just so they have an excuse to show Goku naked again. (90% of Goku nudity is filler! Filler I say!)

I wouldn't say it was the worst thing about GT. GT had alot of problems, Goku turning back into a kid was just one of them.

Just think how successful Toei could've made GT if they kept it like the original Z with all the action. Maybe make a better SS4 design and kept Goku as an adult.

That was exactly what i always thought (with the exact same four characters). Show would've had more potential than just bringing back goku and using him as a crutch.

Altough I loved DBGT.. The critics for Son Goku started LONG BEFORE Funi touched DBGT. I saw GT in 2001 and finished in 2002, and always heard complaints (mostly from the U.S fans because Latin america fans loved all Goku's Adventures)

and for what I seen of the DBGT dub there wasn't that much re-writing.

For me I never understood the whole point of making him young again. That and my other reason for hating it was I lost the ultra cool looking Super Saiyan Three. Like other said this was not one of the biggest problems in GT probraly would have been more accepted if it happened in a better show.

I, personally, disliked it because it seemed so... pointless. I mean, he was just as strong, he had the same personality, he had the same techniques - the only difference was that he was smaller and had a tail. Like others have said, it just felt like a gimmicky attempt to draw in viewers.

But that's just me. I wouldn't call myself a GT fan, but I don't really mind it... however, Chibi-Grandpa Goku was one of my least favorite additions.

Again, it was done solely for nostalgic and limiting reasons. GT as a whole was pretty worthless, but Toei wanted money and whoever was placed in charge thought "Hey, let's do the 'I'm not a kid!' jokes!!"

I don't think it's Goku's return to childhood form that people really took offense to. It's what they did as a result of it. It was mostly just there and not really affective to anything.

I didn't have a problem with him being a child. I had a problem with that the start of the series especially. I think they made big continuity mistakes. But I haven't seen GT in a long time.

1- I just hanRAB down hate DBGT, pointless plots, same old rooting of action (Bad guy vs. good guy, bad wins, good finRAB away to beat bad guy, the fight is over), and...Super Saiyan 4. The only good things I like from it are the japanese opening/endings theme and the last dub line from FUNi made in EP-64 when Goku said “Till we meet again guys”. I cried a little by that line.

2. I find (IMO) turning Goku into a kid was a lazy move. They could of thought at least a decent plot for Goku and to begin DBGT.
