After Akira Toriyama finished the Dragon Ball Z manga, he intended it to be the last chapter in the saga. The last episode of Dragon Ball Z was supposed to be the end of the whole Dragon Ball series, where Goku fights Uub and flies away with him (he was going to train him). But...people loved Dragon Ball so much that they wanted a new series. Toei Animation got permission from Toriyama to make a new series. Dragonball GT was NOT created by Akira Toriyama, it was made by a guy named Osamu Kasai who was working at Toei Animation. Toriyama only did the art for the series while Osamu Kasai did the story and the characters.
