The broadcast of the Dragon Ball Super anime has ended, and the public is now awaiting the launch of Dragon Ball Daima, scheduled for fall. But the publication of the manga chapters continues, and allows us to learn more about Gohan's new form which has amazed readers and the characters present.
Please note: this news is only intended for those who want to know more. If you plan to read the manga or you haven't gotten to that point, the following constitutes a spoiler.
Dragon Ball Super: the anime is over but not the manga, and that's good for Gohan
Written and illustrated by ToyotarÅ under the supervision of Akira Toriyama, Dragon Ball Super was officially launched on June 20, 2015 in the legendary V-Jump magazine. Published in France by Glénat from 2017, this new adventure series was very quickly adapted into an anime. This was broadcast from July 2015 to March 2018, and covers the first 42 chapters of a manga which now includes more than 100 spread over 22 published volumes. If the appreciation of Dragon Ball Super varies, it is clear that the manga continues to work very well. New characters have been introduced and others have made a comeback while our favorite warriors have reached new heights of power transcribed by the appearance of new forms.
Gohan, who had drawn a line under his life as a fighter, was forced to use his fists again and we cannot say that he was pretending. In the Dragon Ball Super Super Hero movie released in 2022, Goku's son unleashed his power to achieve a new form, Gohan Beast. In this form, he has purple hair but also red pupils demonstrating his determination when defending Piccolo against Cell Max. This was necessary to create a real effect among the fans, who have been waiting since 1995 for Gohan to reach a new level of power. However, this transformation left a bitter taste for part of the public, because the explanations around this Beast form lacked concreteness. Toriyama explains that anger is the key, but rarely is it enough in this universe.
Where did Gohan's Beast form come from? We now have the answer!
Now, this bitter taste can give way to satisfaction, because we know how Gohan unlocked this Beast form and even more than that. Taken to Beerus' planet after the events of the film, Gohan warms up against Goten and Trunks in chapter 102 of the manga. He took the opportunity to activate Beast form, which completely stunned Son Goku and Vegeta. When questioned by Goku, Gohan explains that he can take this form whenever he wants, because he has learned to control the flow power available to him. We also learn that these control techniques were given to him taught by Piccolo, who had already trained Gohan around the time of the Cell arc.
Moreover, it was Piccolo who gave the name Beast to this form. But is Gohan now the most powerful Saiayan warrior in his world thanks to his Beast form? Very concretely, Gohan Beast is extremely powerful, but he has not yet surpassed his illustrious father. With the manga and the statements made, we understand that Gohan Beast is as powerful as Goku Ultra Instinct, which is not nothing. Regardless, Gohan once again proves that he is one of the most powerful characters in the Dragon Ball universe, but we knew that from the mid-1990s when he transformed into a super-saiyan. 2 for confront and defeat the Perfect Cell.
