Honestly, I think Multiverse is by far the superior option here.

Multiverse is a masterpiece and the worthy successor to DBZ. Super was never
anything great to begin with, but at least it was better than GT. However, TOP
Saga makes even GT seem likeable.

Haha. Yeah, I think Multiverse is indeed great. I think if we combine all three, we can make something out of a real continuation. The humanoids and their carbonite in Multiverse is an interesting issue.

I like how they added Beerus and Whis in as well.

How is GT better than Multiverse? Multiverse has an actual story, has good twists and turns. Is it because it's not official?

Multiverse has taken literally forever to get where it is and it isn't even far thanks to all those gay-assed specials that are inserted between every minute moment of plot advancement. Who's even the main villain? When will Vegetto turn evil or whatever? GT at least had a distinct new SSJ form and a good idea on paper (the evil dragons concept).

I think that unborn baby might be the villain. Dr. Raichi was interesting. Zen Buu is cool. Broly is cool. Cell being back is cool. The what if scenarios are pretty awesome man.

Broly becoming SSJ3 Vegetto tier or whatever by fighting for 4 minutes was pretty bad man.

Yeah, he was getting powerful very quickly indeed. But is that really any worse than Roshi fighting Jiren or the tremendous list of things that are wacky in Super? Broly's power rising that quickly is at least somewhat explainable.

Multiverse started out well with some cool concepts, but takes way to long to go anywhere and the shoehorned specials are really hit or miss.

GT takes some cool concepts and executes them as poorly as possible.

Super just sucks and never leaves you hanging because you have no expectations for it.


I'll go with Super.

Haha. I think between the 3 of them, we can make something awesome. Beerus is fucking bad ass man. Everyone loves Beerus! I don't know if I like the whole angel structure. It takes away from Beerus a lot I feel. I'm not sure...

The Lord of everything is meh imo. He's too powerful, but at least we have found a true top power. When you have others stronger than the main characters, it is tough to maintain suspense. When they can just go and fix everything. Things aren't on the line like they were previously.

Super Saiyan God is stupid. Having all these different colors for Super Saiyan is stupid. Being on a Godly level is cool and fighting real Gods is cool. God of Destruction is cool.

Roshi fighting Jiren was one of the worst things ever but at least it doesn't take a billion years for something to happen in Super.

Yeah, but it is what it is. Super's authors are getting paid for their work. DBM is all free, fan made.

So Super's author created Dragonball AF then huh?

DBM suffers from Bra and it's specials being ass, Super (Manga) is bland and terrible. GT's the best out of the bunch and I only saw the maligned Black Star Dragon Ball arc.

GT > Super

And I haven't actually read M but from the little I've seen it seems pretty terrible. So I'd go with-

GT > Super > M

I liked Multiverse in the beginning but it got bogged down by an an u focused story and lack of direction very quickly.
GT has problems but the Baby Saga is still solid entertainment and stands above anything in MV or Super.

GT>Super>~Multiverse

I haven't watched through GT or Super completely, and it's been years since I last read through Multiverse.

That being said, I did enjoy Multiverse much more than Super.

GT >> Multiverse >>> Super.

I actually like Whis and the snarky remarks he makes to Beerus. He's usually the only one with something important to say.

Are we talking in terms of power, or overall quality as a series?

Power-wise, Super has Universe busters, GT doesn't and I don't believe Multiverse has any feats close to Multi-Galaxy busting since I last read it at least, so Super >>>>> GT >> Multiverse.

Quality-wise, GT at least bothered to develop its cast and give the series a proper conclusion. Super is just a cashgrab that is being stretched out far longer than its logical conclusion as an intermediary part in the timeline whilst making each of its characters a disrespectful caricature of their former selves and all the new characters being either bland or terrible. Multiverse is just generic fanfiction that uses the idea in a far less creative way than even Super did due to purely focusing on previously established characters and save for perhaps Vegetto, none of them get development. They also try too hard with the plot twists to the point it feels as nonsensical as Bleach. If I wanted decent alternate timeline stories, I'd rewatch a select few episodes of Futurama or Justice League.
GT >> Super ~ Multiverse in terms of quality.

Super has Zamasu and Goku Black which is more interesting characters than what GT and DBM produced. While I agree that Super seems to be more nostalgia and cashgrab but at least they executed enough for me to entertained like bringing back Trunks and Freeza who was already a joke but Super made him great again which cannot be said same thing about GT.

GT has a good ideas but the thing is that they tried to be different but also tried to copy the previous series and villains as well and failed to reinvent the characters. Moreover, ghetto fights sucks which is another meh.

Multiverses on the other hand is cool but like others said it takes too long to complete especially the way they keep releasing these special chapters which dragged the tournament for so long.

Super > DBM > GT
