Maybe it's because as far as I can remember I only watched it once, but what's what bugged people off in the first arc in GT? All I can recall is that maybe it was a bit slow during the first few episodes when it was trying to evoke the Dragon Ball feeling and ended up falling into Monster of the Week territory, but after the Baby plot kicks off I remember it being good save the cop out ending

I love Dragon Ball, I like it when the series tries to recapture the comedic adventure of Dragon Ball, but GT's attempt at it is just dull

But still lol.

Also I wouldn’t day it’s just the ending of baby. They have a premise that they abandoned pretty quickly just so Baby can be more evil

Android 13 movie is funny by itself. Everyone is hiding under the ice for some reason. The Androids have silly hats, habits and accents. The saiyans spend an eternity getting beat up becase Goku gets punched in the dick. Goky is mildly alarmed that a computer is trying to kill him.

speaking of TFS, i'm sure most of you know they've been doing stuff like this recently: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jqZ9aG7Tsgc which is perfectly fine and entertaining, but i thought they were dropping dragonball entirely? because they kept getting into copyright issues with Toei and eventually got tired of fighting them on it. so what's the deal with this?

i kind of got the feeling that the buu saga would have been very difficult to parody because it was basically a parody of the series and making jokes about jokes isn't a fun time for anyone. how can they improve perfect moments like buu screaming his way out of the time chamber, jawbreaker vegito or Gohan breaking a mythological sword shortly after acquiring it?

# ? Oct 16, 2021 07:23 |

or the part where the villain that looks like a chewed piece of juicyfruit fights the villain that looks like a dubble bubble or where Satan and Buu become domestic partners and adopt a puppy or when two very muscly men beat up a teenage girl in a martial arts tournament

# ? Oct 16, 2021 07:26 |

that, and the buu arc is iirc the longest in the series I know they had trouble with copyright flags, but I don't think they're the reason they quit doing regular DBZA

They probably still love the series a lot but just don’t want to tackle anything else of the main series cause Cell was a great stopping point and like other people said, how can you do an Abridged Buu/Super besides those little clips of the latter they made?

Yeah, I was sad when they decided to end it, but looking back at it now, I think it was the right move. Buu would've been a slog for them, and Super wouldn't be nearly as interesting to do outside of maybe the ToP. At first I wished they at least would have kept doing the movies, just to see what they might've done with Videl and Saiyaman, but like, what could you do with Bio Broly?

But its entirely new footage and in a way that clearly cannot be misconstrued as the original product Its basically actual parody, instead of Abridged stuff which is arguable at best

It’s not really arguable as they won the copyright strike contest basically everytime it came up. I feel it won’t be long until these enter the same zone. As you can’t forget they only dealt with copyright issues like four times in a 70 episode plus run.

they were starting to make entirely new shots for their DBZA stuff and editing sequences so heavily that like, the logical next step was just them making their own dragonball footage to free themselves from the restrictions of the show itself. Cell in a Hell as a whole lil series makes total sense- it solves tons of the problems they were having while still letting them play in a Dragonball themed sandbox. i think it's the best option for them moving forward that's not just "stop doing dragonball stuff entirely"
