So, now that I'm back for a few days, I've been checking up on things. And I found this. As I occasionally do, I comment on the cons from reviews of ST. So, that is what you will find below:


 * Lots of overpowering - Yes, I agree to a certain extent. There is overpowering though I feel it is justified a bit because the story is set after GT and I felt I needed to have stronger villains to make it harder for the Z Fighters (think about it: a villain as strong as Super 17 would be a bit...underpowered, in a sense).


 * Super Saiyan 5 and 6 - Same as above really. I'm a fan of forms higher than SS4, though I draw the line at 6. Beyond that, even I agree it is too far.


 * (Relatively) Unoriginal - Truth be told, I did borrow several plot themes from the meta-series, though I tried to change it enough so that I wasn't just copying the series. ST is a bit predictable though.


 * Krillin's the only one who actually gets injured badly - Yeah... You're a fan of Krillin so...


 * Gohan's a SSJ3 - I can understand why people haven't liked this. In all honesty, I thought it was fine when I wrote it, though I was the only active user then so I didn't get a lot of feedback on it.


 * Far too much indirect dialog earlier on - My narrative skills at the time told me to do this. I felt that if I could reduce the dialogue to a minimum, I could increase the action and intensity. Didn't work out as planned.


 * Logical Fallacies - Again, my narrative skills. I do actually have reasons for everything that happened, more or less, but I didn't know how to ingratiate them into the plot.


 * The story can be inconsistent at time, such as Krillin getting injured but later fighting - I forgot about that when I wrote it...


 * If you count Yajirobe as a Z Fighter, then he is quite OOC. I dislike that he is the only one to not fight. - I don't count him as a Z Fighter


 * Inconcclusive ending - While I didn't have plans for a sequel at the time, I thought that ending would satisfy people enough. Of course, for my sequel, the Z Fighters are only going to be cameoing (is that a word?) and I am using original characters.

My closing comments: I like your review and always love feedback. Yes, my sequel will have GT and ST canon, but I am using this feedback to style it to everyone's liking.
