Super Saiyan 4 suits him well!

Gazondaily3493d ago

Ah man it looks silly. Dragonball GT never happened...that's what I keep telling myself. There haven't been many characters that I have hated more than Pan.

madmonkey013493d ago

gohan was a noob in battle of F too.

Spotie3493d ago

I actually loved Pan. The series WAS crap, though.

SegaGamer3492d ago (Edited 3492d ago )

GT has basically been written off thanks to the recent films and new series. I'm not a huge fan of GT, but hell, i'd take it over the crap we are currently getting with Super right now.

Zeref3493d ago

He looks almost exactly like goku.

blackblades3493d ago

Almost, eh gohan head is longer. Anyway he looks badass, like future gohan. Hope we see some badass gohan in alt universe.

TheGameTagerZ3493d ago

AnimeGamesOnline stuff lol you sure like to whore out your channel SaiyanIsland

KwietStorm_BLM3493d ago

He'll still punk out in the fight anyway.

PrinceOfAllSaiyans3493d ago

You know this is fake when someone other than Kakarot is actually getting spotlight.

Seeing this just makes me sad at how they ruined Gohan. Sure he didn't like to fight, but in most situations during DragonBall Z he turned the tide of war to their favor. Not to mention that because he's just as smart as piccolo with coming up with solutions, he should be the most dangerous Z fighter. I hope in the new series they have him training again to regain his powers, maybe Pan or Videl dies and that sets him off... When Gohan went SS2, that was the most that I've ever heard people go nuts over DBZ. I remembered walking into Wegmans after watching the episode on Funimation and hearing other people talking about it in line at the check-out. By that point I was ready for him to take over as the main character in Z. They could have kept the whole separate story arc of Goku fighting in underworld...

Pookandpie3493d ago

I think a lot of people felt the same way. It only made sense that all the time spent with Gohan was made to be building him up for something epic, then it climaxed with Cell and got a second wind around Super Buu, never to return to relevance after that. Common storytelling tropes would dictate that we followed Gohan getting the s*** kicked out of him for 5+ sagas because he would finally be the one to surpass Goku, but alas, it did not last.

I'll say one more thing, though... The English ending narration for the episode in which Gohan finally ascended to Super Saiyan 2 was probably the most amazing thing in the entire English localization:

"It is a secret we have known before Gohan could even form words in his mouth. Through fights with Raditz, Garlic Jr., The Ginyu Force and even Freeza, we've caught glimpses of the child's explosive power. But like an explosion, it always vanished in the moment. It couldn't be controlled- until now. At last, the beastly power has been harnessed. Gohan has awoken.

Now Cell will battle a warrior eleven years in the making- on the next Dragon Ball Z!"

Video in case you want to relive it: https://www.youtube.com/wat...

Seriously, I showed that to my wife, who *never* wanted to watch DBZ because she bought into the, "People shouting at each other for episodes" hyperbole- and she straight up said it gave her chills, it was so epic. We are actively going through DBZ now, and we're up to the Ginyu Saga. =D

Ck1x3492d ago

Lol, just you quoting that line makes me want to start rewatching the Cell Saga again... So Epic

SegaGamer3492d ago

Well, prepare yourself for disappointment when it comes to Gohan in Dragon Ball Super.

luckytrouble3493d ago

For anybody that only watches the video and doesn't click out to the actual article, Dragon Ball Heroes is just a Japanese arcade card game. They've made a few videos featuring fan desired transformations before that is basically just edited and reworked DBZ or DBGT footage.

And yeah, as far as the transformations go, GT SSJ4 is too uniform for its own good. It doesn't leave much character personality intact in terms of appearance.

Also, I strongly agree with previous comments talking about the downfall of Gohan. He was incredible. He was the first to ascend to the next level of SSJ, and his fight with Cell was an iconic moment from my childhood. They gimped him some on the Buu saga, but then they made him go Ultimate Gohan and he could once again go toe to toe with Majin Buu. Then we had the Resurrection of F where he was just sort of a match for foot soldiers. Thanks, I guess.

TWB3492d ago

Though I always felt that the further you ascended as a SSJ, the less human/saiyan characteristics you maintained.

Often people in SSJ2 were much more confident and serious (slightly lacking their standard behavior) and their hair is much closer to each other.

SSJ3 reduces unique facial characteristics and makes the person look more primitive (with long hair ofcourse)

SSJ4 downright gives you excess ape-like bodyhair (also around the eyes?).

I personaly liked how SSJ4 looked like.

I can't wait for this!!!

tayz2547d ago

this is fantastic news!!!

Cajun Chicken2547d ago (Edited 2547d ago )

I'm up for Dragonball after Super, but the canocity of this is going to be equally as awkward as GT. Also, I don't want Yu Gi Oh style thrown in my face in fighting Shonen anime form.

InKnight7s2547d ago

No you prefer Super Sayian 4 actually and its reasonable because its most amazing character and trasformation design ever. GT without SS4 is nothing really.

Michiel19892547d ago

@knight
how about u stop shoving ur own opinion in everyones mouth. ppl love shows for different reasons. You think that its the best character and transformation, others dont. and even if he prefers GT over super because of ss4 then he still preferst GT over super. gtfo dude and try and keep your opinion to yourself because you are not good at sharing it without trying to force your opinion onto people.

OT: I actually hope they stop makin dragon ball anime series,a movie here and there would be alright. I liked seeing all the old characters again but the only noteworthy part for me was the goku black stuff and for the rest I was let down by it.

Movefasta19932547d ago

Don't tell me what I like ,super has terrible writing and the power scaling is all over the place. The tournament of power was garbage

ShadowWolf7122546d ago

Literally any problem anyone has with Super, I can point to a ten times worse case of it in GT.

With ACTUAL asspulls, retcons, REAL plot holes, completely ignoring past lore, power scaling that's so bad as to be ridiculous, and more.

It's not even meant to be canon. It's promotional media for the game.

XxSPIDEYxX2547d ago

Can't get enough Dragonball. Great news!

IAreBeMrLee2547d ago

After super... I needed more... there is a god...
