Dragon ball Z kai super GT

 Okay, let's clarify the Dragon Ball series order you're asking about:

You mentioned Dragon Ball Z Kai, Super, and GT. This indicates you're interested in the chronology after the original Dragon Ball series. Here's the order and some notes:

1. Dragon Ball: This is where the story begins with Goku as a child. It's the foundation for all the subsequent series. (Not mentioned in your question, but it's essential for understanding the context.)

2. Dragon Ball Z: Continues Goku's story from adulthood. This series introduced Super Saiyans, the main villains like Frieza, Cell, and Majin Buu and the concept of transformations and power creep.

3. Dragon Ball Z Kai: Is a re-edited version of Dragon Ball Z. The original DBZ anime had considerable filler content that wasn't in the manga. Kai was created to be a more faithful and tightly paced adaptation of Akira Toriyama's manga. The animation was also remastered. It covers the same story arcs as the original DBZ (Saiyan, Frieza, Cell, and Majin Buu). Key distinctions:

  •  Less filler

  •  Remastered visuals

  •  Re-recorded voice acting

4. Dragon Ball GT:

  •  Timeline placement: Set after Dragon Ball Z. It's not based on original work by Akira Toriyama in its main storyline. While he did character designs and a few story elements, the larger plot of GT was conceived by Toei Animation. For a while, it was the "official" sequel to Z.

  •  Story: GT sees Goku turned back into a child. The Z Fighters must travel the universe to retrieve the Black Star Dragon Balls before the Earth explodes. It introduces Super Saiyan 4 and other new concepts.

  •  Reception: GT is a much more divisive series. Many fans dislike it due to perceived inconsistencies in power scaling and character. Its status within the overall Dragon Ball canon has become less clear after the release of Dragon Ball Super.

5. Dragon Ball Super:

  •  Timeline placement: Retcons Dragon Ball GT. Super is now the official continuation of Dragon Ball Z, taking place before the very end of DBZ's Majin Buu Saga, bridging the gap in the timeline and leading to the peaceful world seen at the end of DBZ.

  •  Story: Super introduces new characters, universes, gods of destruction, and even more powerful transformations, such as Super Saiyan God and Super Saiyan Blue. Major story arcs include the Battle of Gods Saga, Resurrection 'F' Saga, Universe 6 Saga, Future Trunks Saga, and Tournament of Power Saga.

In Summary (Chronological Order):

1. Dragon Ball

2. Dragon Ball Z (or Dragon Ball Z Kai - same story, different pacing/presentation)

3. Dragon Ball Super

Dragon Ball GT is considered an alternate timeline and is not included.

Important Considerations:

•  Canon: "Canon" in Dragon Ball refers to material directly created or overseen by Akira Toriyama. Dragon Ball Super is largely considered canon since Toriyama was very involved in its development. Dragon Ball GT is not largely considered canon.

Therefore, If you want the "true" chronological story after DBZ, choose DBZ and then straight to Dragon ball super to continue their Journey.
