When you compare them the kid Goku from Dragonball and the kid Goku from Dragonball GT only have 1 similarites(the hair), there facial structure and skin colour are different, i think that this would be something good to debate,

Goku-Dragonball

Goku-Dragonball GT

This is probably mainly because of the little information following:

The artist may have changed between the time that Dragonball was created and DBGT was.

Or

They decided to change him, since the Dragonball Goku was simple...and not really "up to date"


Y'know?

Hey, I gotta leave for a little while, when school started I exspected a little off time before real school..but that did not work. So yeah, I have a HUGE [like 20% of my grade] project I have to do for Civics due in few weeks...and its a long project..so yeah, you may see me throw in a GFX here and there but thats about it. Sorry ^^ This has nothing to do with previous things, this is seriously only skewl.

Yea the animation had been changed drastically Dragonball started like 10 years before Gt. I dislike the way there improving the animation, anymore detail on the characters past the way they looked in DragonballZ and they start to look stupid.

That is just because they are going by their appearances on the Shows. Its not that hard to figure it out, it was just an advancement that they had.

It takes a mere second for treasure to turn to trash.

Simply because

A) Things are advancing, Dragonball was more of a cartoon than an Anime, DBZ and DBGT were more Anime, so the characters had an Anime look.

B) If Kid Goku in DBGT looked like Kid Goku from Dragonball it wouldn't look right, the cartoony-Dragonball Goku mixed in with Pan, Vegeta, etc. that are all very anime looking? It wouldn't look right, thus the transition.

Its obvious the graphics have improved seeing as the first Kid Goku was on screen in the 80s or something. I think they changed the way he looked was to keep the modernization they had in Dragonball Z, flowing throughout their series.

For example, in dragonball, no one had that well toned muscles. In Dragonball Z, their muscles are so toned that they can be seen through their clothes.

I have to agree with a lot of, but I have some more facts.

1) Kid Goku in DragonBall was truly experiencing childhood (well he was 12 at the start)
2) Goku in DBGT was an adult when he was wished back to being one; He would've had more of the rougher characteristics of Adult Goku than a kid Goku. Plus your talking about a dude who's power level at that time was probably way over 1,000,000 at base.
3) You wouldn't have DragonBall version of Kid Goku walking around in DBGT.

I haven't really noticed it before I saw that pic comparison. But yeah, kid Goku in GT looks a lot more like Gohan.

I think it's because the artist has improved greatly from the DB to DBZGT
And they wouldn't want a cartoony guy walking in DBZGT series as -NM- Killa just said

They want characters to look much better every episodes

well as mentioned the animation probably was the main factor.

But also the gt kid goku was obvious still much much stronger than he was in dragonball, by leaving him the same it makes it look like his strenth was the same as he was in dragonball. The gt goku looks stronger.
