#GT #DragonballGT #Piccolo
Dragon Ball GT will always have a special place in my heart, it was my introduction to the franchise.
Yup me too! Never knew what anime was until I saw Dragonball GT
I am so sorry, but it’s better than Super at least
Same man
Same
Same
I don't see people appreciating Goku and Piccolo's bond too often. Piccolo went from a ruthless demon king, reborn to exact revenge on Goku. To bonding with his son, and even bonding with him. And just as Goku himself said, Piccolo was always there to help him out. From being his arch enemy, to being his most trusted ally, even more than Vegeta i'd argue.
Like a true big half brother. Goku caused his birth. Piccolo Jr.
Thanks to Vegeta no one cares about any other character that Goku interacts with besides him
@@Eggs543that's cap. There are alot of Broly and Gohan fans out there.
@@wegoku7274 and what they get? Nothing Goku barely interacts with his son and his new Saiyan friend it's always Goku and Vegeta i want to see other characters that's why I loved Super Hero so much
@@Eggs543 you do realize that Broly was on Beerus planet along with Goku and Vegeta right. Not only that, he aided Goku during the Granola arc.
Piccolo has always been one of my favorite characters. In GT, the way he sacrificed himself to save the people of earth, then again to save Goku later while already dead felt so bittersweet. The writing for Piccolo was so good. While GT itself is a mixed bag, Piccolo's development is amazing. I absolutely love it.
And luckily it's the same for the other characters in GT too!
@@dusk6159 for the older characters anyway. The GT specific characters... Well... Yeah they're bad.
Someone sent this to me and said it was “someone talking about peak for 7 minutes”. Boy, was he right. I always loved Goku’s farewell to Piccolo but I never realized how incredibly written his character arc was. Thanks for the enlightenment.
Everyone felt so much more mature, really feels like the characters grew up.
With those stakes and bonds too....
Especially seeing the mature and advanced versions of them all, especially father Gohan
yeah they all grew up. Honestly the show wasn't that good but the ending was good. I think they could have done the show differently and give it the same ending and it would have been a really good show.
The Goku Jr epilogue with a dying Pan was really sad though. I loved that little episode and we also get to see Vegeta Jr. Really does a good job of making you miss the old Z characters like Roshi and Krillin
Ye
now dbz super feels like all them mfs are cracked out or something
What makes piccolo and Goku’s interaction even more special is that piccolo has kami’s memories so he would remember training kid goku so it’s basically like he’s saying goodbye to his old student
Technically, Kami didn't train Goku...Popo did
Chris Sabat and Stephanie Nadolnie really delivered and gave us such emotional anime moments no other anime could replicate. After seeing this again, just reminds me how awesome piccolo truly was in GT.
Shame that in DBZFighterZ we don't have Stephanie in the huge classic that is GT Goku, who's her character, perfect voice for it
GT Piccolo is the MVP! I appreciate Dragon Ball GT for its finality, and how it actively tries to not ruin its characters.
Agreed. They did give other characters more to do in super than in GT, but at least GT remembered who they where beyond their fists
Except Pan
@@rev0lve638 Except Pan
GT had strong moments that were outside people just fighting. A GT moment for me was Gohan working beside Bulma on the scientific development. It was a generation long wait from when Gohan declared to be a scholar and he was able to now team with the smartest person in the world to save lives.
His Death in GT has some meaning alot more than most give it credit for.
Much more than his death in Super that I'm sure most people forgot happend.
Sometimes I forget Piccolo died in Super lmao
wow I didn't even remember that. I had to look it up just now... what a shame
@@GreatExpectations787 Yeah I'd argue it's the worst death for a major character in the entire series. It's just a shameless re-tread of the Saiyan Saga of his first death.
Then it's just glossed over. He's basically the only person of the main cast to actually die in Super. If we don't count Earth blowing up from Frieza and having time re-winded like nothing happened.
His revival was even off-screen 💀
Wait Piccolo DIED IN SUPER?
This solidifies why Piccolo is one of my favorite characters, aside from Tien. His sacrifice in GT chokes me up every time I revisit this show. He's always training and looks out for everyone. I'm glad they did him justice in HIS new movie, Super Hero. Just that he got it from a wish 😮💨 I can't wait to see what he does with his newfound power.
Definition of an Hero Rises
i dont care what anyone says, GT will always be my favorite. that is the true successor to Z. id rather watch GT than super which is outrageous to say to some people, but theres just something about the animation that i love.
Gt is canon to the DBZ anime
Super anime is canon to Kai
Dbs manga is manga by toriyama canon
We all got a canon (official continuity) to enjoy. I like all the shows. But I’d put gt above super. Super is enjoyable too. It’s got tons of plot holes, but so did the buu saga and I loved that.
Finally some love 4 GT
The character development is so great In GT, it really feels like what Super should have.
honestly I don't think it would've worked as well for Super due to the timeline placement being before the end of Z.
Let's just make super uncanon and make gt canon
@@99Gara99it is in my mind
The entirely Super Hero movie has better character development than GT. Piccolo is even the main character..
@@lonewolfgamingplus379 lmao hell no piccolo gets sidelined by gohan if you consider piccolo getting a new transformation only to then become a punching bag for cell max good development your bugging lmao
There were some things I did like about GT and Piccolo’s sacrifice was definitely one of them
I’m glad you do give gt the credit it deserves man gt was a absolute masterpiece and shows u how some characters true self when the earth has been in peace for some long people think gt characters are weak but don’t realize how long the earth has been in peace gt is a perfect example of how each character chooses to live life after dbz
Piccolo's sacrifice was emotional
The Virgin Super vs The Chad GT
GT had its moments and knew when to take scenes seriously
Peak writers and definition of care/writing Dragon Ball stuff
Good times
@@dusk6159nearly. Side characters didn’t get many wins, it was just goku defeating everyone. And Vegeta (in terms of his fights) was mistreated in my opinion.
GT is an incomplete masterpiece in the making that was never really finished as it had many missed opportunities but still managed to tell a good emotional story.
The super manga has lower quality story telling to GT but has a better art style and fight scenes.
The super anime is the WORST out of all 3, but Vegeta’s tutelage of Cabba and his fights against Jiren and Toppo were amazing.
GT is a far better sequel to Z than Super. GT for all its faults still respects the growth of its characters and treats them with the love and respect they deserve. Super shits all over our favorite characters and only focuses on giving them different color palettes for lazy new forms.
Yep. And regression in a lot of them as well
Gt piccolo is a perfect Cycle that comes to an end! He says farewell to gohan in a very touching way,while in super he is a babysitter… WOW
Finally! Someone else who understands how great GT is. Especially how the characters were written. Vegeta was done a whole lot better than the regressed DBS Vegeta
Dude GT Vegeta only served to make Goku look better, at least DBS Vegeta actually had development 💀
@@perreban DBS Vegeta just retreads his development in DBZ but worse because he already had that development before. DBS regresses Vegeta’s character just so they can do the same thing again. GT keeps his development from Z and adds to it.
Gt vegeta was a joke when he was the only ssj4 left fighting omega shenron and shenron literally called him out for being the harmless second hand character lmfao.
GT vegeta was a joke. Litteraly useless
@@duckyh9712 Bro obviously Omega Shenron is gonna say that lol
I didn’t think he was useless at all. He was sidelined for most of the series, but when he was on screen he was amazing imo
GT Did Piccolo more character than in Super he one of few characters I enjoy in GT.
Piccolo in general is one of the best characters written, his character development is so realistic
I can imagine the Saiyan Scholar looking proud if he is to watch this.
Kudos to you, this is a great vid!
6:30😢 he remembers him as a friend that learned to team up in fighting, driving, teaching to dance
Not as vegeta just a rival in the battlefield
Hercule and buu style
You said everything better than I ever could. Absolutely love this video.
GT while very flawed, is still peak fiction in my eyes
the driving flashback caught me off guard XD
I rewatched 6:19 a million times
I think that despite the bad rep Dragon Ball GT gets it's a good show from what I've seen, I loved Super Saiyan 4 the more tranquil version of possibly the most recognizable theme in the series makes it clear just how different the form was to its predecessors, to me that form really feels like an evolution of both Super Saiyan and Great Ape
yeah it might be the worst dragon ball, but dragon ball is an amazing show, being the worst dragon ball is like being the worst ice cream, its still pretty good.
@@dustypaladin9216 same thing i say about…something like game of thrones last 2 seasons were good tv for asny other show but real bad for GOT
Piccolo's last goodbye to Goku is such a moment, really takes it back that they were the main rivals of the series, not Goku and Vegeta
This is the third well written video of yours I have watched. Great work!
Bro you're GT videos are so amazing. I love that you explain the reasons why this series doesn't deserve the bandwagon hate. My man 🤘
Don't forget that the *other* reason Piccolo sacrifices himself is that so the black star dragon balls become deactivated, so one can ever use them and put Earth in such danger ever again
GT if I could go back in time like 20 years and tell the people that in two decades people would admit they have always loved GT and it's gonna become cool to love it instead of to hate it, they would never believe me
man i always loved gt, remember my days comin out from school in anticipation to watch gt, the theme songs were so good along with the art style and chracter voices
Dam cuz you dam near made me cry😢.
0:35 Piccolo and Goku just did a dap right there
Nay man you can't tell that Piccolo standing there and letting himself be fuckin blasted by baby was a good representation of his character. 💀
That was poor writing but everything else is pretty good send off to me. Remember this the rap up of Dragon Ball.
Hes beyond perfection
Ever Grand tour deserves an epic ending, and this was an example right here!
Yes this is peak! You did a good job with this one! And Piccolo's sacrifice and goodbye was amazing!! GT did amazing and its the true ending to the Dragonball franchise
Never thought I’d see “Perfect” and “GT” in the same sentence
Gt was a masterpiece
I prefer way more Piccolo barely appearing, but when he appers, have a big significance, than he appearing a lot, just to have a few fights, and ended up getting beaten at the end, like in DBS with piccolo vs frost, and pretty much all of piccolo in T.O.P, the way he got eliminated is horrible and makes no sense for the character, and the few fights he had wasn't even that good.
Piccolo’s sacrifice, in the end, literally meant nothing in GT. It didn’t change anything about the series going forward other than the fact that they had an excuse not to use Piccolo.
@@Q_Reeves Besides the fact that he played a major role in the android 17 saga. and made the other set of dragon balls become unavailable, which definetly helps a lot. sure, the other dragon balls still ended up causing problems, but imagine how worse it would be with both available, even worse with the other set destroying the planet.
@@banjo9158 His only major roles were dying and getting Goku out of Hell. As cool as that may sound, it’s very mundane and just a “Meh” way to write him out of the story.
The Black Star Dragon Balls shouldn’t even be a thing considering Piccolo and Kami fusing basically negated the existence of the main Dragon Balls. So, if they’re still linked to him, why did they not need to be reactivated but the main ones did?
All I’m saying though for the most part is Piccolo’s character didn’t amount to much in GT outside of being a forgotten sacrificial lamb.
@@Q_Reeves I think it's a good way to have him being useful, when he is not a main character anymore. it's not much, but not every character need to do a lot, making every character doing a lot is impossible.
that i somewhat agree, the black star dragon balls are a plot hole no matter how you look at it, but it's not a major issue to me, only if it ruined something i really like, a character for example, dragon ball did worse stuff before when it comes to retcons, and their existence only really ruined the original namekian, which is a character nobody give a shit.
although black star dragon ball existence being a plot hole or not, it does not erase the effects it have in the story, and piccolo.
and yes, piccolo didn't do much in GT, but i feel like, it's better this way, not only is leagues better Super like i previous mentioned, but i much prefer a character appeared few times and being more effective, than appearing just to be just a background character, or get beat up over and over.
@@banjo9158 See, but I don't agree about the treatment that every character got in GT compared to Goku. Not every character needs to do a lot, sure, but at least give the characters the respect they're deserved. Piccolo's literal first appearance in the show was getting attacked by Baby-Gohan and never to be seen again until the end. That's a ridiculous handling of his character.
The Black Star Dragon Ball's existence practically ignored the meaning of Piccolo and Kami fusing. That was supposed to mean "No more Dragon Balls" until Dende came around to re-power the main ones. That should've had nothing to do with the Black Star Dragon Balls. Their existence, as far as I'm concerned, is contrived and just an excuse to kill off Piccolo.
I don't know about you, but Piccolo was getting beat up and treated like a background character way before Super came around. Even in the Cell Saga and ESPECIALLY in the Buu Saga. That's not something you can pin on DB Super. And even then, they've given him his flowers in various moments. Even in the manga as well. I would've never guessed Piccolo would've gotten a movie primarily catered to him until Gohan came around. That's more justice than GT ever gave him.
You know what? I'll even say this... Piccolo's involvement in the Super 17 saga was FORCED. There is no conceivable way they expected me to believe Goku couldn't have used Instant Transmission to get out of Hell. You and I both know he didn't need Piccolo for that. So Piccolo's involvement in every arc in GT is either meaningless or forced.
He literally does nothing but die in GT.
Lmao stick to super DBS kid
i guess your one those WHERE THE FIGHTS, WHERE THE FIGHTS monkeys huh
Is this Damien priest narrating this 😂
😂😂😂
@@GreatExpectations787 all jokes aside I hope you channel blows up 💯
Bro's voice is glorious
The Demon King? He stopped being that way before GT, especially after merging with Nail.
You know what I didn’t need this morning??? A reason to cry…
Great video tho
Piccolo's farewell to Gohan and his subsequent sacrifice, especially in the original Japanese dialogue and music, rent my heart like no other scene in all of fiction.
It's poetic that the Kami of earth went down with the ship when it blew up
He did rule earth as he was the only on left it wrapped up his story he achieved his dream
GT was given such a bad reputation. Glad to see more people are noticing its shining points and how it ended, and not being milked.
The goat
You should make a video on Super and GT. Dope videos
he didn´t get any single fight in the hole serie but he was a goat
Piccolo didn’t have reason to die in GT. He decided not to go with Goku, not because he had not enough energy for both as much as I recall
Gt Piccolo's death woulda been more of a tear jerker,
If they woulda NOT shown random baby saga clips, of Piccolo getting thrashed by Baby-Gohan 😒🙄
I SAID THE SAME THING!!!
Yeah I get he was proud of Gohans power and it was emotional but watching him get Beat up by a possessed Gohan was kinda odd I'll admit xD
Gt is good man frfrfrfrfr
Damn the way ppl talked about piccolo in gt was like he was nothing this is wrong to me after watching this
GT was done right piccolo death has me in tears
ironically, everyone gets their good ending at GT.
Gt has great characters like piccolo goku vegeta baby and the shadow dragons
Having never gotten the time to watch GT and Piccolo already being my favorite character, this just makes him the best fiction character in my opinion.
Goku didn't leave Piccolo there by accident, Piccolo let go of Goku right before he Instan Transmitted.
man starts out the video sounding like piccolo himself, ;o
GT definitely had the best send off for Piccolo, which fit his character so well compared to how they use him in Super...
people hate on gt, but man it was amazing, truly the best of the show.
I remember everyone use to hate on GT when I was little it seems with Dragon Ball Super we really entered the darkest timeline
Lol
The better grill master. R.I.P
his character goes full circle.
I completely agree with you now looking back piccolo was given more respect during the series
Piccolo n krillen were my fave for a long time til we stopped seeing him so much n it slowly became Gohan n Goku to finally not having a favorite but a rankin lol still, Piccolo will always b in top 3
Thank you. I have said this before, and it has to be resaid a hundred times before it gets into the head of these loons. Piccolo's sacrifice is the perfect conclusion to his character. From someone born to kill Goku and enslave the Earth to someone who gave his life for Earth and life in Heaven just to help Goku.
So a thing I like in GT that they did with Piccolo, although not on purpose, is they wrote out the characters that were being written to be written out of importance.
In the Saiyan-Saga: The humans were very clearly written to no longer be of relevance interms of power. They weren't useless, but they were no longer the top-dogs they were in OG.
In the Frieza-Saga: Krillian is outmatched by everyone. Piccolo fused with Nail, a not-random Namekian, and he was now able to compete with the top-dogs. However Zenkai boost had the Saiyans surpass him.
In the Cell-Saga: The humans were now utterly helpless. Tien could buy time with the Tri-Beam, but that was it. Piccolo fused with Kami to once again become the top-dog, and once again was overshadowed by the Villian powering up. he was still in the top 5, able to compete with Cell Jr.s unlike the humans. But it was made clear he was no longer relevant in battle, at least not in power.
In the Buu-Saga: All of the humans are one-tapped, and Piccolo is clearly not-able to keep up at all. Now I don't think base Goku/Vegeta/Gohan could have beaten Piccolo, but I do think as normal Super Saiyans alone Piccolo was cooked
we can clearly see that they are being written out of the story, interms of fighting. And while this is sad, it's a running theme in DBZ. In DBGT they continue this trend. Piccolo is not able to compete at all. But they still wrote him in a way where he was useful, just like krillan. And that's nice, the characters don't need to be the top dogs to be good/useful characters.
Then we have DBS where everyone get's random ass power increases and we completely forget the running theme in DBZ.
This making a grown man cry :'))) RN alert.... 💚
"Name one sacrifice more Sad than Goku in cell arc"
The 44K people who watched this:
GT piccolo was so in tune with his spirit he save Goku and force him into instant transmission off of planet earth bad ass.
Piccolo is the only character to successfully kill Goku in the entire franchise history.
Guy forgets about Cell and Hit
@@oceanstar2294 cell didn’t kill Goku. Goku committed suicide.
Z piccolo is my best friend/ best brother. Z piccolo is perfect
Didn’t piccolo appear, and then instantly get merked
What you expect ? The villain was stronger
@@robertrogers074 Some more respect for his character?
@@Q_Reeves unfortunately that dosent happen anymore in the world of super sayains
After the Kami power up Akira just got lazy and stopped letting piccolo keep up
Can say he was perfect. A proper fight with Baby Gohan should've happened. Him dying with Earth should've never happened. Him having proper fights against Hell fighters would've been nice.
I'm glad Dragon Ball GT is getting the appreciation it deserves. All it took was a lousy sequel series to do it
I always loved GT. Super needed to impress me and it failed
If i were to choose between Super and GT, i choose GT. I may not be a GT fan but at least the writers did stay true and faithful to...some characters like Goku, Vegeta and Piccolo unlike Super which i can't take seriously anymore.
Kami is strong in piccolo…when we saw them fuse he even looked different lol
And how did Piccolo get them to send him to Hell?
"Haha! You idiots don't get it! *I'M THE DEMON KING!!!"*
Reminds me of Neji’s sacrifice 😩
I disagree but atleast they had the decency to kill him off instead of keeping him around for no reason like SUPER does.
Gt is better than super
Gt is better than super
Interesting take on GT Piccolo. Personally, it feels like GT didn't execute this sacrifice well since IMO those who grew with Piccolo since the beginning would see how powerful this moment is. GT on its own? This could've worked well if Piccolo was part of the main crew and we knew more about these balls over time to make the sacrifice hit harder even if it's not as shocking.
Regardless, nice to see why moments like these are beloved even if I'm in the minority on this. ^^
GT had amazing story concepts; but the execution not so much. Black star dragon balls, baby, super 17, shadow dragons, and most importantly SSJ4. Imagine if they had the budget of super
Here’s how I see this death scene might go down if TFS ever did an abridged version of GT.
Piccolo 😑🫡: well, here I am sacrificing my life yet again. But at least I know that when I die, humanity will be safe and no one will ever be able to abuse the power of dangerous black star dragonballs ever again.
Nail🤔: why didn’t you just kill the dragon?
Piccolo😳: … come again?
Kami🤨: kill the dragon. You know just like you did as King Piccolo? You summoned Shenron and then blew him up so the dragon balls would be useless.
Piccolo😰: yeah well… it didn’t work! Shenron came back!
Kami😡: because I’m his creator and brought him back to life, you idiot!
Piccolo🤬:…. Oh FU-(explodes)
Piccolo didn't just stay behind just to save anyone left on the exploding earth he stayed behind so that the dark star dragon balls would lose their power when he died.
Number 1 brother to goku and uncle to gohan.
Piccolo is my favorite In the series and gt is based
i like those scenes but honestly piccolo should have a bigger role on baby's arc. At least some cool fight with baby gohan before dying because he didn't die and somehow goten is safe in home, what happens to piccolo? he just disappears! was he brainwashed by baby? or just choose to lie low forever? boo was with hercule in safety but where was piccolo? we do know namekians can get infected by baby because of dende but DBGT could at least bother to show us piccolo losing and get infected
gt is such a masterpiece Oh my god I can't believe super even existed U I wish it didn't exist man And let gt continue. qmazing
my favorite musical instrument
What’s that?
@@GreatExpectations787 Piccolo
GT did a whole lot wrong, but every time they did something right; it was some of the best in the entire franchise.
