Dragon Ball Super has been bustling with activity this month. Recently, the series treated fans to an anticipated showdown between Son Goku and his son Gohan on the battlefield.
As the finale of the Superhero arc of the manga, the father-son duo decides to settle the age-old debate about who holds ultimate power. But does Dragon Ball Super really give a definitive answer?
If you're wondering how the battle goes, well, if you guessed that Dragon Ball Super left things ambiguous, you'd be right.
When Goku confronts Gohan, both warriors immediately unleash their most powerful transformations. Gohan shows off his formidable power when he encounters Ultra Instinct Goku.
Notably, Gohan's power is such that he was even able to knock Ultra Instinct out of Goku. However, Vegeta points out that Goku's fighting experience gives him an equal advantage.
In the end, the battle ended in a stalemate, with Goku losing to Gohan. While many fans were shaken by Gohan's display of power, Goku quickly dispelled any notions of superiority.
Summoning Broly to fight Gohan, Goku admits that he is not fighting to win. His sole purpose was to test Gohan's abilities, pushing himself just enough to achieve that goal.
True to form, Dragon Ball Super remains reserved about Goku and Gohan's power levels. Both warriors possess incredible power, each with their own unique abilities.
Whether Dragon Ball Super will definitively resolve the relationship between father and son remains uncertain. For now, it's clear that at least Goku and Gohan stand on equal footing.
For those who haven't been following Dragon Ball Super, the manga is currently on hiatus but can be accessed through the Shonen Jump app. Here is a brief overview of the series:
“After defeating Boo, Goku finds himself increasingly restless with life on Earth. Despite Chi-chi's wife's insistence on finding a job, Goku's passion lies in training and facing stronger enemies.
Meanwhile, across the universe, the God of Destruction Beerus and his servant Whis are searching for new culinary delights and sources of entertainment. When he hears whispers about a being known as the 'Super Saiyan God', Beerus sets his sights on Earth in pursuit of this mysterious figure. Maybe this will give Goku the challenge he has been waiting for?”
