Encyclopedic overview
Dragon Ball GT (Japanese: ドラゴンボールGT, Hepburn: Doragon Bōru Jī-Tī) is a Japanese anime television series based on Akira Toriyama's Dragon Ball manga franchise that ran from February 1996 to November 1997. Produced by Toei Animation, the series premiered in Japan on Fuji Television and its FNS affiliates, running for a total of 64 episodes. Unlike Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z, the previous two television adaptations in the Dragon Ball media franchise, Dragon Ball GT does not adapt the manga. It serves as an anime-exclusive sequel to the Dragon Ball Z anime series, with an original story incorporating the same characters and universe. It follows the exploits of Son Goku, the series' main protagonist who is turned back into a child due to a Black Star Dragon Ball wish. After discovering that if they do not recollect all the balls within one year, the Earth will explode, Goku, his granddaughter Pan, and Trunks set off to traverse the universe in an attempt to find them.
Despite the series being a non-manga adaptation, franchise creator Akira Toriyama designed new characters and concepts for Dragon Ball GT. Chronologically, it is the last Dragon Ball series (taking place after Dragon Ball Z) and until the release of Dragon Ball Super (2015–2018), GT was the final televised series of the original Dragon Ball anime trilogy. Another later anime series where Toriyama was more involved in the production, Dragon Ball Daima (2024–2025), borrows several concepts featured in GT.
