The series' art direction was also carried over to the 25th-anniversary film Dragon Ball: The Path to Power, which loosely re-adapted the first third of the original manga. The special tells the story of Goku's descendant, Goku Jr. Unlike its predecessors, it didn't spawn any theatrical movies, but does have a largely-unrelated TV Special (known as Dragon Ball GT: A Hero's Legacy in the Funimation dub), that was generally better received than the series itself. The series itself was less successful than the previous Dragon Ball or Dragon Ball Z and is polarizing among traditional fans. Starts off with the trademark humor of the early parts of Dragon Ball, before rapidly returning to the more action oriented style of the previous series. And so, Goku heads out into space with Trunks and his granddaughter, Pan.

It is soon revealed that unlike their regular variants, the Black Star Dragon Balls scatter throughout the entire galaxy, and that if they aren't found within a year, the Earth will explode. However, since failure has always been the only option for Pilaf's attempts to Take Over the World, he messes up the wish accidentally turning Goku into a child. Set five years after (10 years after, in the Funimation dub) the epilogue of Dragon Ball Z, Goku has finally finished training Uub and is ready to return home until an unexpected reunion with Emperor Pilaf and his minions who have managed to obtain the Black Star Dragon Balls, even more powerful than the originals. Dragon Ball GT (with 'GT' standing for 'Grand Tour') is the anime-only continuation of the Dragon Ball series, originally broadcast from 1996 to 1997 in a single 64-episode season.
