Dragon Ball GT? Alternate Canon (is its own continuity) DB Evolution? Alternate Canon (is it’s own continuity literally not even crossed with the animanga). Dragon Ball Heroes? Alternate Canon (is its own continuity). These canons don’t conflict with each other.

It seems we need to have a literary lesson on what the word “canon” means. If something is it’s own continuity, it obviously falls under the definition of being part of a canon. DBGT is it’s own continuity. Just because it’s not canon to DBS does not mean it’s not part of the Dragon Ball Canon. Dragon Ball Canon is '''anything''' created by or endorsed by Akira Toriyama and Shueisha, that includes the anime created by Toei and the many video games. What separates the DB canon is '''continuity'''.

Non-Canon is stuff like fan-fiction (or “fanon”), or one-time special events, stuff that’s not to be taken seriously or literally or not to be seen as part of the official canon. Goku in Street Fighter 2 is non-canon. Goku in DBH is alternate canon.

Goku has a GT, DB Evolution, and Heroes profile, with differing scales from the canon counterpart. But since the message has already been said, I guess there's nothing else to do.

There’s a substantial difference here.

Dragon Ball GT? Alternate Canon (is its own continuity) DB Evolution? Alternate Canon (is it’s own continuity literally not even crossed with the animanga). Dragon Ball Heroes? Alternate Canon (is its own continuity). These canons don’t conflict with each other.

It seems we need to have a literary lesson on what the word “canon” means. If something is it’s own continuity, it obviously falls under the definition of being part of a canon. DBGT is it’s own continuity. Just because it’s not in continuity with DBS does not mean it’s not part of the Dragon Ball Canon. Dragon Ball Canon is anything created by or endorsed by Akira Toriyama and Shueisha, that includes the anime created by Toei and the many video games. What separates the DB canon is continuity.

Non-Canon is stuff like fan-fiction (or “fanon”), or one-time special events, stuff that’s not to be taken seriously or literally or not to be seen as part of the official canon. Goku in Street Fighter 2 is non-canon. Goku in DBH is alternate canon.
