    GT gave the Saiyan roots back,gave the Dragon Balls an actual role and symbolism other than to resurrect already dead people.

      Every dragon ball series gives the dragon balls a role except for DBZ. In the original DB, they constantly searched for the dragon balls and king piccolo used it for youth. In DBS, the dragon balls were used by zamasu to wish for immortality and switch bodies with goku. Moro used them to wish for youth and break the prisioners out of jail. Granola used them to wish to be the strongest.

      In buu saga the elder supreme kai is shocked about learning the earth has a set of dragon balls, and he specifically said that the namekians were the only race ALLOWED to posses a set, in the first season (dragon ball) the dragon balls are introduced as one energy orb created by kami (god) but after witnessing the missuse of the db by humans, this kami (god) decided to divide this mistical orb in seven fragments, there's a lot of roots into the dragon balls lore but is buried deep within the show (db and dbz) , keep in mind that gt isnt cannon

Many of the DBZ clips found on youtube now are not bruce falconner/toonami, they are reedited over so to not show blood or background musics don't match the scenes and tensions of fights/showdowns.

    I actually really like this explanation. Both this ascension and the statue immortalizing Goku 100 years later (as well as Jr. continuing his legacy) are Goku achieving a kind of immortality, which is something so many of his enemies have tried to achieve in the past through brute force and trickery. It's his reward for living a full life with no regrets and maintaining his pure heart.

    That sense of Mystery was always the one thing that made the ending of GT so special for me....
    Here is a quote from Robert Ebert when he reviewed the awful sequel to 2001: Space Odyssey; "I felt that the poetry of "2001" was precisely in its mystery, and that to explain everything was to ruin everything -- like the little boy who cut open his drum to see what made it bang."
    That's exactly what I felt like when I watch GT's ending. Not knowing where Goku went with the eternal Dragon at the end and returning after 100 years, it just made Goku go beyond legendary... something of a Myth. The little boy who went from a warrior, to a hero, from a hero, to a legend, and from a legend to somewhat of a god at the end and beyond. 100 year timeskip Goku is perhaps the most powerful being in all of Dragon Ball, if not all of Anime. Not because of his raw power.... but because of the story we grew up with... And the legend he ascended to become.

      GT has epic moments like SSJ4 with its unique way to obtain that transformation, the battle against Omega Shenron and the final Genkidama.
      Those moments in GT are as memorable as any DB or DBZ moments.
      Overrall, I think GT earned its place in our childhood.

    My own head canon of this event along the lines of what's explained here is the Goku essentially becomes an alternative to using the dragon balls.
    Since the dragon balls got corrupted from over use, Shenron wanted to create a solution to remove them....but still have a way for the Earth to be able to repair and defend itself should the need arises.
    That solution...is Goku. Now with an immortal body, he's essentially permanently become earths protector. If there's ever any threat the jeopardizes earth. Goku will ALWAYS be there to defend it. Almost like a guardian spirit

Many of the DBZ clips found on youtube now are not bruce falconner/toonami, they are reedited over so to not show blood or background musics don't match the scenes and tensions of fights/showdowns. If you know what I'm talking about and if you know how/if I can get a hold of this certain full DVD series of the real Dragon Ball Z U.S version then please dear god let me know? Take care man.

    I like the Daoism idea and it does make sense in context. I've always interpreted that when Goku was killed by Omega Shenron the regular Shenron was able to manifest and give Goku extra time and his eternal power to destroy Omega once for all. But it came at a price, Shenron and the Dragon Balls would merge with Goku altogether to become the champion of the Dragon Balls and essentially the whole universe to ensure they would never be used again. He would then go to the Dragon Realm which is talked about here and there sometimes (it was discussed and shown in Toyble's AF) where he'd go on a 100 year journey to become totally and utterly immortal and invincible. During this time he can never see any of his friends or family, but after he can visit the mortal realm and Earth as much as he wants.

    @rickblaine9670 2 года назад +5

    One thing I recently realized, through my growing passion for the myth of King Arthur, is how much Goku's story in DBGT resembles Arthur's last years of life. The glory days of old (DBZ/the Round Table) are long gone and the last battle approaches - a battle against a very personal enemy the hero feels responsible for creating (the Shadow Dragons/Arthur's bastard son, Mordred) - so the hero is once again summoned by the magical entity that started his very first journey (the Dragon Balls/Merlin), which he must now experience once again in order to be ready for the final battle (Goku literally and symbolically relives his childhood/Arthur relives his first lessons with Merlin). Then, at the very end, the hero sacrifices himself battling the ultimate evil, but some residual form of him leaves with the promise that he will return when the time is right.
    I'm not saying this was all intentional - of course not, althoguh maybe some of it? Who knows... - but it's just to say how GT, with all its problems, truly elevated Goku's story to the status of a mythical tale.

    @choueriito2548 3 года назад +8

    Whilst I like a lot of this in theory, this interpretation of what the ending meant does rely on a lot of meta-contextual information rather than what the series itself conveys to us. For instance, even though DB draws heavily from Wuxia and Eastern mythology/philosophy, those elements aren't the be all and end all of the series' world building and rules when considering things such as how its version of the afterlife is noticeably different from its Hindu/Buddhist inspirations as well as the sci-fi elements playing just as big a part in the series. In other words, things such as the Shenlong Realm described in interviews or Goku's ascension as described here could work with the right writing behind them, but the series never touched on these at all as part of their world building or power system to the point suddenly bringing them in at the end is nothing short of contrived.

    Man, was a sad day when dragonball ended. Was a bit disappointed to see everyone old but not goku.

    Gts ending always made me sad. The way the narrator gives his final speech was very fitting.

    Thank you so much for this Bid D. I've always loved this moment, the most out of the entire franchise. My favorite moment. Been waiting a long time for something like this! This will definitely be one of my favorites from you. Thank you. I love this ending so much.
