Much like Toriyama has fixed things in the past, just keep pushing forward. In fact, Toriyama and Toyotaro could still wrap the events of Dragon Ball Z 's finale into Super 's and just rewrite a bit of the time line.
It's a common practice in comics to rewrite plot elements in order to accommodate new stories, and it would be accepted here just as well as long as certain core elements remain in place. New elements introduced in Super seem to go against Z's ending too, as Trunks and Goten still seem interested in battle here, Pan, as an infant, has shown to have inherited a great amount of strength, and Uub has been referenced to already have enough strength to even be considered for the Tournament of Power albeit for a short time.
If Toriyama is comfortable adding ideas like the Saiyan S-Cells into the canon long after they were first hinted at, then it stands to reason he has been working toward a new finale for Dragon Ball. Dragon Ball Super airs on Crunchyroll Saturday evenings at p. Adult Swim airs the English dub during its Toonami block Saturday evenings at p. Toriyama stated that the end of Z was a side story, anyways. Sign up to join this community.

Do these events reconcile or was the end of Z undone to make room for Super to tell new stories?
Improve this question. This question looked familiar, and then I remembered seeing it on Scifi-Fantasy. So welcome to Anime and Manga! It's a much better fit here. Add a comment. Active Oldest Votes. Improve this answer. Pablo Pablo Do you have anything authoritative that suggests that?
I'm not making any conclusions of possible or not continuity mistakes. You asked if the end of Dragon Ball Z was canon, and I told you the writers wrote a piece of episode in Dragon Ball Super meant to connect that with the end of Dragon Ball Z, because it's canon. How you make everything fits after that - if there is an actual problem, or if they actually care to make it fit at all - it's another issue. BTW, you have now parts of Dragon Ball Super which has 3 versions of the same story, movie, series and manga.
Goten ended up being a nobody while Trunks is most memorable for wearing those god awful shorts. Pan on the other hand was the main character alongside Goku , one that annoyed to levels Bulma and Chi-Chi combined could never reach.
She was as aggravating as Maron was, except she didn't disappear after an arc and was there the whole time. Just seeing her image conjures up memories of some of the worst parts of GT. Goku becoming a master to a young apprentice has always been a logical step for the character. For someone who loves fighting as much as he does, it makes sense for him to carry out the latter part of his career mentoring an up and comer or his child. The ending gives us that as he takes the reincarnated version of Kid Buu under his wing, seeing great potential in Uub.
The fact he bids farewell to everyone before he just flies off in the shows closing moments is totally in character for him as well. This one shouldn't be a strike against the ending as they did a good job of setting him up as a future powerful ally.
The issue is that GT only seemed to care about him during the Baby arc, and Super has yet to even have him in the anime. Succeeding shows are always going to have an impact on an ending, and this is a clear case of that. Uub was built up to potentially be a very strong fighter but falls to the sidelines to prop Goku up, as far too many characters in this series do. Ending on a martial arts tournament is always going to be the right decision when it comes to Dragon Ball.
It's been such a staple of the series for so long that it feels wrong to end on anything else. Tournaments are always super fun to watch, no matter how high the stakes are.
The universal tournament was arguably the best in Super , and some of the best moments in the original Dragon Ball happened there as well. It's just synonymous with the series. As noncanon as it is, anime wise, the ending helps set up certain things in GT , like Pan's strength and Gohan being a scholar, etc.
Most fans would agree this isn't a good thing as the only positives from GT is Super Saiyan 4 and the black dragons.
