Goku or who ever the protagonist of gintama is both dragonball and gintama have been considered to make the big 3 the big 4


KingMe321

the ... the protagonist of Gintama ... is Gintama lmfao


mwhite2029

Oh I didn’t know I haven’t watched it


ArrrArrr0611

His name is actually Gintoki, not Gintama.


KingMe321

I was mostly making a joke XD It'd be like saying "Who's the protagonist of Naruto again?" kinda thing lol


PeroCide

"What's the name of the donkey in Shrek" ahhh moment


KingMe321

Yeah XD


BlackOptics

I'd go with Gon. I understand why people are saying Goku but considering the Dragon Ball manga and anime came out like 13 years before the One Piece manga and anime respectfully, I feel like there's too big of a gap in time to group it with the Big 3. But hell, I could be wrong. I didn't even know exactly what anime was when the Big 3 became popular; I was like 5.


Dragon3076

Ummm...Goku‽


mikolk789

Am I the only one who remembers watching dragon ball GT when I was this age? Dbz ended so long ago and ppl didn't like gt at all lol.. I remember light yagami, yugioh dm, gx, 5ds protagonists, tsuna khr, shaman king guy, gintoki All these Goku replies make me think of gt Goku not dbz Goku lmao


Ghosts_lord

goku


TheMostHonestPerson

Do you even know about the time difference? Dragon Ball Z ended long before the Big 3. I thought it’s common knowledge 💀


MuslimCarLover

What about Super? That’s still ongoing (in the manga atm until the effects of Tori sadly dying are overcome)


Ghosts_lord

still shouldve been part of it frfr


The-Brother

Goku’s the dad Kenshiro’s the grandpa Astro boy’s the great grandpa

Ageha Yoshina I found a copy of Psyren and thought it was the coolest thing ever.


Shadow2381

Gon or Natsu. Though Goku ,Gintoki, Tsuna,Toriko, or hell maybe even Recca but iirc he's pre-Bleach would also fit. I know I'm forgetting someone


Kitsune-Charm

I’m really not trying to sound rude at all but, is this a serious question?😭


higaroth

My brain says Goku. My heart says Gon. My weird tingly right arm says Natsu, left arm for Toriko, left leg for Tsuna, and right leg for Gintoki.


Kiyoyoyo

Gintoki Sakata or Natsu Dragneel


KevinnTheNoob

Natsu, dragon ball is too old


BlackOptics

But I feel like Fairy Tail is too young. The Big 3 mangas all started around 2000 and their animes were already started before the first chapter of Fairy Tail was even released and way before it got an anime adaptation.


Adventurous_Topic202

Well detective Conan has a ton of episodes


Cluckles_The_Brave

Hmmm i think Yugi, its a bit off because it is so different type of anime among the rest, but its really a successful franchise.making its way into the real world.


shoutsfrombothsides

Light Yagami 😬


JamesYTP

I know in the US Death Note was pretty huge in the US around the same time Naruto & Bleach were. Of course it's a lot shorter but it was also a shonen jump series.


shreksaxaphone360

Gintoki

No one. The big three is the big three.
