The Black Star Dragon Ball arc in GT felt like that it could been good since they where going across the galaxy and there was a lot of potential for cool ideas. However it end up being so boring to sit through. The scene where Trunks dresses up as a woman was a poor rehash of the original DB episode "The Kidnapping Demon, Oolong". When Goku dress up as a girl in the original DB anime & manga, at least it was funny in my opinion.
What I also didn't like about GT was that I find a lot of the characters forgettable. I remember Giru, General Rildo, Myu, Bebi, Super 17, Yi Xing Long (Syn/Omega Shenron) and the fire & ice shadow dragons. Everyone else I forgot about. I always felt like most of the minor characters in DB and DBZ had something at least memorable about them. |

Still too early to say that Super is better or worst then GT. GT was pretty boring to me until Bebi show up. GT jump the shark for me when they did the whole Super 17 saga. The Shadow Dragon saga was somewhat decent in my opinion.
I still do look forward on what Toriyama has in plan with Universe 6 an the other universes. |

At this point I'd have been happy with Battle of the Gods & Resurrection F being the only new things we'd gotten. Especially if all we have to look forward to now is an anti-climactic watered down retelling of their plots in Super.

But you'll have to apparently sit through two drawn out retellings to get to it. |

While I'm not happy about the retcon, I don't see how that can ruin any enjoyment of Super. We are still getting character development and it's not like everything is identical to BoG. Hell, they are going to have to do something different for how someone can become a Super Saiyan God since Videl can not possibly be pregnant yet (unless Bulma's party lasted 5 years). |

So you liked Piccolo being turned into everyone's bitch? Or how everyone just suddenly got weak? How about the fact that you had adults hitting on an 8 year old girl?
What more did it need to have? That is all Battle of Gods had too. While I'm not happy about the retcon, I don't see how that can ruin any enjoyment of Super. We are still getting character development and it's not like everything is identical to BoG. Hell, they are going to have to do something different for how someone can become a Super Saiyan God since Videl can not possibly be pregnant yet (unless Bulma's party lasted 5 years). BOG had a new story something Super lacks. Because we want new content and not just pointless drawn out rehashes?That's like saying DB Kai is worth watching if you've seen the original anime because it cuts out the filler. |

I just came back from seeing Resurrection F or Revival of F depending how you want to go by. I personally really love the movie. Great action, decent humor and Freeza was great in the movie. Jaco really sold the show for me since his character was awesome and funny. Whis and Beerus where also great too. I do like how Krillin and Roshi put up a good fight in the movie since it's been so long that they did something relevant. The animation was pretty solid expect for the CG and some action scenes.
I still hate the rewind of time. Why not just have Goku kill Freeza after he blew up the Earth and use the Dragon Balls on Namek to wish back everyone ? I always felt like DBZ give other characters a chance besides Goku. Piccolo, Gohan, Vegeta, Future Trunks, Krillin, Goten & Trunks had their fair share in the story before Goku shows up. In GT, I hated what they did to Uub. Uub was made to be the next projector of the Earth with Goku training him. In GT, he got his ass kick. Got his ass kick by Bebi before he fused with Buu. Put up a good fight after fusing with Buu then got turn into candy. Got his ass kick again with Super 17 and Omega Shenron. It's a shame that they really ruined his potential in GT. I would have had go into space with Goku instead of Pan or Trunsk. |

In Z at least the other Saiyan could do something to harm or kill the villain of the arc, in GT if your name wasn't Goku or Vegeta, your job was to either stall or get your ass handed to you while you wait for Goku. Sometimes both.
Super doesn't have some like Uub yet, who had the promise of being something cool but then ended up being knocked to the side in favor of more Goku. That's not to say that Super is going to necessarily be better, as if it's just going to adapt BOG and and RoF for now, then while the other Z fighters will at least be somewhat useful when Freeza comes around, Gohan is still being demoted back to just Super Saiyan. The upside is that unlike in GT, Tien and Krillin will be useful again sometime soon. GT's writers decided not to have Trunks and Goten form Gotenks again, despite the many times that would been useful either against Super 17 or the Shadow Dragons, Pan didn't get a Super Saiyan form (causing a debate about whether or not girls could turn super) even though she's Goku's grandkid, so you'd think that call for something of a power boost, and Uub absorbs Buu and then proceeds to pull an Ultimate/Mystic Gohan, and not kill the guy he just powered up to beat. Super might be going slow, and the stories it's presenting we've literally just seen, but it's just freaking episode 4 as of now. Hardly time to be calling it worse than GT.
