“True knowledge is knowing that you know nothing.” I love how Goku exhibits notions like this; so simple, yet so profound. He truly is a great example of someone who understands more than he knows. Great vid. ~_~

Dragon Ball is and will always be my favorite anime. The journey of Goku's adventure will never cease to amaze me. He started out as a child from the woods, and as his adventure begins, he gains many friends, and evolves on the way. Now, he's in the level of a God. But you have to pay attention to the fact that without all of his masters, he would've never gotten to the place he is now.

I don’t think that Goku became a true “master” of martial arts until the end of Z. It was during all of Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z that we saw Goku wear his typical orange gi, but it was after the Buu arc that we see him wearing a new blue gi, a sign that he has finally achieved his own mastery of martial arts.

That detail with Goku still learning about his Super Saiyan powers, and not wearing a kanji is pretty fantastic and super consistent even in terms of DBS once you think of it... Goku only reclaims the Go kanji after he masters Super Saiyan 3 and feels he's reached the peak of his power, only for Beerus to come in and flip his world view on his head. Goku once again takes on the symbol of a master when training under Whis to master God ki, but after being able to control God ki enough to put the Kaioken on top of that, he switches back to his Go kanji just after the Universe 6 tournament. In a way, it implies that Goku refuses to wear his own Go kanji until he feels he has mastered all that he knows to master.

I feel like after the Broly movie and the Galactic Patrol Prisoner arc, Goku and everyone should have to fight against more magic based villains. Someone with techniques that would require Goku to do more than just get stronger to win. Like the villain could be an Ex-God of Destruction that was revived from the dead. Honestly it would be crazy if Goku had no choice but to learn some magic to beat a new villain. I know the idea of Goku doing magic sounds weird at first, but Whis, Piccolo, Kami, Fourtune Teller Baba, and even Master Roshi all know magical techniques, so why not Goku? It would also require Goku to strengthen his mind for once, not just body. And then when Goku truly masters Ultra Instinct, he could combine it with his new magic skills to cast spells without thinking lol.

@@devantewinston4865 Goku can read minds too, and Ultra Instinct gives him low energy nullification plus auto dodge and attack hax, he also has Mafuba(Anime) and Hakai(Manga). On a side note, his mind training on Namek was the reason why his Zenkai boosts were so huge compared to Vegeta and why Ginyu couldn't use Goku's full power after stealing his body, that's because Ki comes from mind while Chi comes from body, and our fighters mostly rely on Ki.

The first time I noticed the importance of Gi types in general was when watching Dragon Ball Abridged and Gohan asking for a Gi that looked like Piccolo's. Whats your opinion on Gohan's Gi choice? He picked one that looked like Piccolo's in the Cell Saga, but went back to his father's Gi in super. Thinking about it now, I think it would have been pretty badass if he had his own Gi to represent a uniqe mixture of Goku's and Piccolo's fighting styles. His own character' his on Gi.

Another bit of symbolism with Goku changing to his own emblem when he arrives on Namek could also be a sign of rebellion. When he was on his way to Namek King Kai specifically forbids him from fighting Freiza. Goku half-heartedly agrees but it's clear that Goku has every intention of fighting Freiza. I don't think Goku is really the type to directly disobey his master like that, but by declaring himself his own master he sort of frees himself of his "obligation" to obey King Kai's wishes. As far as the lack of any symbol moving into the Android/Cell/Buu arcs, I'd never really given that much notice. And despite what a lot of people are saying, it's not that Toriyama forgot, as Krillin and Yamcha still have their symbols on their gis at the Cell Games right alongside Goku without a symbol. It seems unlikely that he'd remember to put it on theirs but then just forget Goku in the same scene. Though I think the reason isn't necessarily meant to be a statement of him still learning (though he is), I think it's more likely that it's a sign of being humble. It's normal for a student to wear their master's symbol, but you don't generally see the master wearing their own symbol very often. How often do we see Roshi wearing the kame symbol? Now, King Kai and Kami wear their symbols, but I think that has more to do with their station rather than their role as martial arts masters. Anyways, when Goku arrives on Namek it's his first time declaring himself his own master so wearing his own symbol sort of sends that message that he's no longer a student, but after that I think he realizes that it's not necessary to wear it. Sort of like how when someone first earns their black belt they wear it and/or brag about it, because they're proud and want to show off their accomplishment. But the true masters don't even bother with their belt, they don't need to show it off, they know what they're capable of and that's enough (I keep thinking of that scene from the original Karate Kid where Daniel asks Miagi about his belt and he says he got it at JCPenny, and says that a belt just means you don't need a rope to hold up your pants)

that's not the only symbolism either, I mean just the concept of their Ki, and their Aura that's emanated from their Ki has or HAD a lot of meaning right up until Super, I love Super, but nothing beats that lovely Cel Sheet Cinema Quality Goodness

I think he put his own symbol in the namek/frieza saga because he thought at the moment that he had nothing else to learn from anyone his final teacher is himself. But after he went super saiyan he realized the he still had much to learn about this new power. It was a power that had never been seen befor and he had no idea how to use it and so he had no teacher to teach him. Therefore he can't put on a symbol that represents the end of his learning if he's still learning and he also has no teacher to give him lessons. So i think his gi less clothing represent him learning from an unknown teacher.

I've been rewatching dragon ball z and I'm in the frieza saga ep 82 to be exact and I didn't even notice the gi symbol change. I'll be looking for more subtle things like that.

5:48- Goku became the master of martial arts, able to overcome the Ginyu Force and would've been completely victorious had it not been for Capt. Ginyu's own trickery and eventually stop Freeza with the Super Saiyan form. Then he loses it because even though he learns the Instant Transmission, he is not the ultimate master as Cell and Gohan were both better than him at the time; and even later when he is outclassed by the likes of all of Super Buu's forms, Gotenks and Ultimate Gohan. Aside from the brief instance during Resurrection F where Whis draws a kanji on both Goku/Vegeta's uniforms to label him his students, he still doesn't have it as he is still not the master due to beings like Hit, Goku Black, Fusion Zamasu, Jiren and Broly being on levels that Goku couldn't defeat initially on his own merits without risky techniques, Deus ex machina transformations and fusions. So he's got a long road ahead till he's the best of the best.

And yet in DB Super he wears again the GO symbol, like he sees himself as a master. For a while he wears gi made by Whiss with Whiss's logo, but he soon goes back to his old clothes and symbols, even though he's still learning under Whiss and still discovering new techniques and new powers and transformations.

The idea that the frieza arc was supposed to be the end of the series also ties in with his mastery, and also reinforces your thoughts on him saying, yes I still need to learn
