Yo Son Goku Canonocity

I was just quickly wondering whether or not people consider Yo! Son Goku and his Friends Return is canon. I personally do, though.

Also, give an explanation.

I don't see why not, it doesn't add a whole lot other than Vegeta's brother, who seems to spend most of his time on a remote star anyways.

Plus they mention Tarble in BoG, is that not canon as well?

If you want to take BoG as canon, then I don't see why not have this canon as well.

Personally, the only thing canon for me is Toriyama's Manga. Everything he worked on post-2007 is semi-canon IMO and everything Toei-created is non-canon.

The thing is... If you consider BoG canon, you MUST consider this canon aswell, just for the inclusion of Tarble.

As far as I know Toriyama wrote the basic story, but not the script or anything. If this is the case then the villains, whatever their names were, and Tarble could be "Toriyama-canon" (which is supported by Tarble being mentioned in BoG, which is stated to be "Manga-canon"), but the actual lines and stuff weren't. Think of it like the Trunks special, the actual events took place even in the Manga, but the way they actually happened was completely made up.

The problem with this is that there's plenty of grey areas in Toei's production and Toriyama's involvement with their production.

For example, the Tuffle and Saiyan background was a memo produced by Toriyama for Toei, but he had nothing to do with the actual production of that filler episode aside from some character designs.
That to me is a grey area.

こんどの劇場版ドラゴンボールも、マンガで連載していた時の続きのつもりで新ストーリーを考えました。 絵を描いていないだけで、細かいセリフまで徹底的にこだわっています。 まあ、ホントは年齢的にシンドいのでそこまでやるつもりはなかったんですけど、ちょっとお調子に乗ってしまいました。

今回は、もちろん前回の「神と神」の続きになっていますが、意識してアクションシーンを大幅に増やしています。 内容に関しては、なぜかもったいぶって「まだ秘密に!」なんて言われてしまったので触れる事はできませんが、 メチャメチャおもしろいはずですよ!

ホントは派手なアクション物はあまり好きじゃないボクが言うんだからマチガイないっす! めったに褒めない初代担当編集者の鳥嶋氏も珍しく「いいね!」なんて言ったんで。

かなりマチガイないっす!…あんまりデカいこと言ってガッカリされちゃってもマズいのですが、 少なくともファンの方々には、とってもスカッと楽しめる内容になっていると自信を持っています! 現在、新キャラクターなどのデザイン画を描いています。映画の完成はまだ先ですがどうかお楽しみに!!

[As with the last movie], I thought up the new story for the next Dragon Ball theatrical movie as though it were a continuation of the manga when it was in serialization. Just the fact that I don’t have to draw anything means I can obsess completely over the smallest bits of dialogue. Well, the truth is that I wasn’t planning on going that far, since it’s pretty exhausting at my age, but I got a little carried away.

This time will of course be a continuation of the previous Battle of Gods, but I’ve deliberately increased the amount of action scenes by a good deal. With regards to the contents, they told me, “Keep it a secret!” like they’re all high-and-mighty, so I can’t touch on it yet, but it should be super-duper interesting!

The fact that I’d say that, when I’m not big on the flashy action-stuff, means there’s no doubt about it! Even my very first editor Torishima, who rarely ever praises me, said, “This is good!”

Absolutely no doubt about it! …Although it won’t be any good if I say that too loudly and people end up disappointed by it, but at the very least, I’m confident that the contents are something that the fans will be able to thoroughly enjoy! Right now, I’m drawing the design illustrations for the new characters and such. The movie’s completion is still a ways out in the future, but please look forward to it!!

I have heard one argument against it because Gregory is in one scene though.

So? Gregory is canon if that's the case.

Then where was he during the entire manga?

Off screen with the rest of the Kais I assume. His presence in the series is non intrusive so I don't see a problem with him being canon. If Chibi Pilaf is canon (Which is still a reversed GT reference, so now GT happened too) then Gregory doesn't strike me as a problem.
