Is the end of Z after Dragon Ball Super?
The end of Z is not after Dragon Ball Super, as Dragon Ball Super takes place during the ten-year time gap between the defeat of Kid Buu and the conclusion of the original Dragon Ball Z series. The end of Z refers to the epilogue of the original manga, which occurs ten years after the battle with Majin Buu, and Dragon Ball Super is set before this epilogue, making it a precursor to the end of Z.
Understanding the Timeline
To clarify the timeline, Dragon Ball Super begins approximately four years after the battle with Majin Buu, and the events of the series unfold during the ten-year gap that leads up to the end of Z. This means that Dragon Ball Super is not a continuation of the end of Z, but rather a story that takes place before the conclusion of the original series.
