The 10 Different Types Of Dragon Ball Canon Explained

[@JaxBlade]

It cracks me up how Dragon Ball nowadays has kinda become one of those CHOOSE YOUR ADVENTURE type books lmaoo Original Story DB to DBZ DB to DBZ + Bardock special DB to DBZ + Bardock Special + Certain movies from the original 13 you can squeeze in & make them fit the story DB to DBZ + Bardock special + Certian DBZ movies + Dragonball GT DB to DBZ to Super DB to DBZ to Super (But actively ignoring the bad parts) Etc Etc etc. hahahaha

In short, because Toriyama wasn't taking notes for his own story and also didn't seem to look at his work again once it is completed, we have now all these different sized cannon balls all seemingly belonging to the same cannon. And as result everyone is rightfully confused about Dragon Ball in an equal manner...which means that as fellow idiots we apparently are allowed to wage war over this.

[@Alienrun]

Only thing I can add to this is that retcons don't automatically make something "non-canon" to something else. For example Raditz originally tells Goku that his planet exploded 3 years ago...then the date changed to 24 years (somewhere around there)...then it was revealed that it was done by Frieza. None of these changes caused a new canon to form...its within DBZ's nature to retcon itself or have inconsistant writing. Its just easier to take classifications of the narrative like "what's the series is called" or "manga/show/movie/ova/special/game ect." and ask ourselves "ok so where does this fit into the story so far?"...what's weird is that as a result we've collectively just made every seperation its own canon...and its a little suspicious to assume its all just a coinsedence. The most useful way to establish canon (from my perspective anyways) is just to establish what's an adaptation and what's a continuation. For example DB and DBZ anime are adaptations of the og manga with GT being a direct continuation of said anime series. Super would be an alternate continuation of the anime series...some people seem to insist that Super is a continuation of the original manga but I see no evidence of this personally. TL;DR Canon doesn't matter. Every DBZ related thing had an influence on future DBZ things. (For example the reason Vegito was used in the Buu saga was cause Gogeta was used in movie 12 and Toriyama didn't want to be redundant by using Gogeta again even tho he designed him first...thus showing that Toriyama doesn't just influence Toei's descisions but it works the other way around too.) What matters is the execution of each story and the artistic intention and all that. I personally view the whole canon thing as just a fun mental excersise to try and fit the whole story together in different parts...but yeah one should never take it too seriously...lol :P

[@veryangryboi4128]

Radtiz never said Planet Vegeta was destroyed 3 years ago,where did you get that?

[@Alienrun]

@@veryangryboi4128 He says that when he first talks to Goku and starts talking about the history of the saiyans. Its literately the second episode of the show (DBZ uncut version/japaneese version).

Curious tho...have you not seen the begining of the saiyan saga in a while or what?

[@willdiesel8431]

If canon doesn't matter it would've never been introduced. And I mean that across the board for all other shounen too.

[@willdiesel8431]

​@Alienrun Well to my knowledge that's not the type of retcon that would call the canon status into question because it still falls under The Word of God. No matter how jarring the revelation of Goku's origin or the retcon of The Evil Demon Clan now being aliens, it's Toriyama making the changes. Now if Lapis and Lazuli weren't the changes AT was behind and didn't implement I would say that's a retcon that changes canon because that revelation didn't occur in the original material.

Great video. I suppose it's just a consequence of a franchise like Dragon Ball going on as long as it has and being as big as it is. As a fan, I'm always grateful to get more material all these years later, but ultimately, it's all more or less supplemental to me. Or even just objectively speaking. The original manga and then, for the most part, the original run of the anime are my definitive "canon" and then the movies/ Z specials are their own branch off of that. But, it does suck seeing poor writing of the characters we love and even character regression in some cases as a result of having so many hands involved in different areas of the show. Also, it makes discourse a big headache sometimes

[@diogodocallofduty410]

I just think that GT is the same Canon as the Anime Canon because they did show a GT preview on the Final DBZ episode, and they kinda consider some Movies? I mean, Cooler, Garlic Jr., Gohan's Great Dragon, there is some connections (but yeah, those Movies contradicts the Anime, so idk). But besides that, this is the best-made canon explanation video I've ever seen. You summarized the points well in the way that makes the most sense. I'll absolutely share this with my friends to let them know how Canon REALLY works in Dragon Ball.

[@willdiesel8431]

GT is it's own universe. Nothing to do with being canon; just like all of the movies that aren't also considered "Specials".

[@diogodocallofduty410]

@@willdiesel8431 While i'm not sure about the Movies, i really think that GT is the same Canon as Original DBZ Anime. It didn't contradicts anything important and actually uses some of the Fillers to create connections. Of course, it's not Canon to the Manga (and that's why Toriyama said GT is a Side-Story), nor KAI nor Super, but is Canon to the Original DBZ Anime. In fact, Takao Koyama (DBZ Anime Screenwriter) did confirm GT is the Official Sequel to Dragon Ball Z Anime. But if you know something that did confirm GT isn't Canon to Z, let me know, i'm very curious.

[@willdiesel8431]

@@diogodocallofduty410 my point was that if multiple uses or excuses for canon is being used then the word loses meaning. GT is the same as the movies and it doesn't really matter THAT much if it contradicts things from the OG DBZ anime because you would have to excuse the filler that contradicts the events of the anime sometimes even dating back to adventures of Kid Goku. GT=Movies=DBZ anime.

[@diogodocallofduty410]

@@willdiesel8431 What made you think that GT is the same as the Movies? I mean, the majority of the Movies didn't even have a gap to fit in the Anime Timeline. For example, on Fusion Reborn, you can see the date "Saturday, 16th" in Videl's watch, and the Tenkaichi Budokai in Majim Boo Saga begins at May 8th, and that Saga lasts like... 3 days i think? So it's impossible that Vegeta and Goku would stay dead at that Movie time period. That's the way the creators have to say that "This Movie doesn't fit in the Official Timeline, it's a altarnate story." In this case, probably Gotenks or Gohan defeated Majim Boo. But when you look at GT, you see that is follows the Anime Timeline perfectly. As i said before, they show in the Final DBZ episode that the story will continue in GT, though there is no other thing like that for any Movie. It even respect the Fillers, like Goku's fear of needles, the conception of Hell, Freeza and Cell getting along, the Tuffles backstory, etc... And if your point is just "it's not Toriyama's work" or "The Manga is the only Canon", than i assume you didn't pay attention to the video and you don't know a thing about Canon in Dragon Ball. Have a great night.

[@willdiesel8431]

@@diogodocallofduty410 After many years on different messageboards and taking in the parallels of each series of stories, I came to that conclusion early on in fascination with the IP. Simply showing Android 19 as one of the enemies escaping from Hell is reminiscent of the Movies following their own lore (false SSJ transformation comes to mind immediately) that can be separate from even the anime. I'm sure I don't have to go into the specifics as to why a fully mechanical Android would not keep their body let alone be judged by Enma. By the time that episode aired on broadcast TV there were no shortage of enemies that could've taken 19's place but again GT follows the beat of a different drum from the anime. Another thing would be; the absence of a notable powerscale. Even if the jumps in power were "generous" to say the least there was some sort of loose formula in the early parts of the Z portion of the story that kept some sort of give and take balance. I find that's never really the case in GT after rewatching the series in full about 8 months back. This mirrors what many of the earlier movies did and it wouldn't make sense in an ongoing epic. I very much have my favorites when it comes to the movies and certain parts of GT are well done and executed as though it is just a continuation of Z.

The Super Manga, Anime, and Movies are all separate canons if I believe because Toriyama only works on the movies and gives the manga and anime artists basic plotlines where they do whatever they want with it.

i think the DBS Manga could've had a much better canon if the anime's adaption was put on hold. But, despite everything that has happened, the manga has gotten better. Plus, some minor adaptions were made around each arc for the anime such as the Future Arc where Bluma and Gohan failed to get the dragon balls on time. Now the only thing i may had some issues with the personal Hell and not there being one single hell world like how we saw with Goku falling into snake wave or when the villians saw the buu fight. Even if they were filler, it was still good to see what it might've looked like if it was in the manga. If the personal hell is a thing now, i would've like to have it only for major villians who deserve it the most. Anyone else would just have their souls in hell, and if they were somewhat decent beings, they could get their bodies back; but be restricted with their powers.

Cooler and Bojack, arguably the first Broly, are the only. Maybe Wrath of the Dragon. Bojack contradicts absolutely nothing. Most of the inconsistencies in Cooler's Revenge could easily be chalked up to being "for dramatic effect".

[@alishabazz7431]

GT was always meant to be the Anime continuity from Z as it’s mentioned in the final episode of DBZ. Toriyama, though he didn’t write it, is still credited for GT he just feel like writing anymore. He said it can be finale of DB or a Side Story. He calls it the Grand Side Story because the DB DBZ Anime is the side story of the original manga. And GT is basically the child of Z anime so it’s the grand side story like a Grandchild. The DBGT Goku Jr movie special is also called the “Goku side story”. So “side story” doesn’t make it illegitimate.

[@willdiesel8431]

What makes it illegitimate is the things that is contradicts. Like what was mentioned in the video. 🤷‍♂️

[@alishabazz7431]

@@willdiesel8431 Only thing that comes off in GT is Black Star balls which contradict anything. It adds to it. It’s a retcon. By that logic DBS is illegitimate because it contradicts ALOT in DBZ and DB.

@@willdiesel8431 It appears you did not watch video. He literally said explains multiple canons and GT is apart of the DBZ anime continuity. He also has a video that’s breaks down how DBS heavily contradicts the original manga. Yes or no?

You didn't mention dragon ball super hero. I still don't know what that is

[@QaamansLand]

I didnt feel like it needed to be mentioned. Its a movie continuation

[@jahjoeka]

@@QaamansLand a continuation of super or of hero? Or a continuation of the broly movie? Funny how you think this didn't need to be mentioned. Imma just Google it, thanks.

[@jahjoeka]

@@Ealais76 i think it's a continuation of the broly movie because the end of super happened so long ago. All i know is shit is confusing and im always being spoiled because I don't know what to keep up with. Waiting for the anime to came back just to find out about beast Gohan, which is canon, is very annoying.

7:29 says 4 years in the manga

[@shenron-senshi]

I know this comment is four months old, but just to correct you. That "4 years" line is only in the Fan-translated version of the manga. In the original Japanese (as well as the Viz translation), It's actually five years since Bulma and Goku seen eachother.

[@mydogbullwinkle]

I like to think that Tarble was in Witness Protection for witnessing a tax-fraud scam before the saiyan extinction, and Vegeta was miscounting on purpose because he loves his lil baby bro.

[@noahknight4039]

I read the manga too but the canon is the anime. It’s what the movies whether they fit in or not are based on, it’s what 99% of the games are based on. The anime pulls from the manga and everything else pulls from the anime.

[@superduper8795]

I never understood why we couldn't just say they all took place in different universes or timelined since dragom ball has a multiverse

[@CarlyDayDay]

Well, it has multiple multiverses, I guess.
