To answer your question of “Why did Goku give up with Cell just for Gohan to take over?” Well… that’s not a Wukong thing, that’s a Toriyama thing. Initially he wanted the torch to be passed on so that Gohan would eventually be the MC, but due to incredible popularity of Goku, Tori decided to keep him in. Think about this… Toriyama himself tried to kill off Son Goku, but Son Wukong’s immortality was so strong, his Japanese counterpart (prolly one of his reincarnated clones) couldn’t even die to essentially the God of DBZ original plan. That’s how OP even the Concept of Wukong is. Essentially the Chuck Norris of fiction.

[@jiemongpingpong]

For clarification, the reason SunWuKong lost the intro fight is because SunWuKong had a magical headband put on him. This headband causes immense unbearable pain to its wearer and cannot be taken off unless the true owner of the headband does it.

[@ItchOnMyBack]

No. He literally dead after that, but [SPOILER ALERT] I guess that what Erlang said in the secret chapter: "No one can kill that monkey except himself". Yes, Wukong die if he wanna die.

[@lilkimbu2817]

But isnt sun wukong above literally everything? how can you be bound to a rule and get diffed by something else in your own verse if you're above "all concepts" lmao. Ik it said he was once budda but jeez lol

[@Pi-is-Bi]

​@@lilkimbu2817 that headband was put on him by quan yin (a buddha) back when he hasn't started the journey. Supposedly when he finished the journey they took it of him when he became buddha himself. But in Black Myth Wukong, they're implying the headband was never taken of. And he was never freed. They lied to him. So Wukong "purged" ("kill") himself and try to reborn from the 6 essences to truly escape the headband

funny thing about the book of the dead situation afro. he literally made death himself erase his name from the book making him officially unkillable. however he ,ived 374 days before being sealed inside that rock on top of his mountain. its also why during the start of the game you had no health bar because you were quite literally unkillable. id also love to point out there is a reference to this book of the dead situation because the max level in black myth is 374. the same number of days wukong lived before being sealed away. and because sun wukong erased his name from the book of the dead. the name no longer existed which is why nobody specifically refered to him as sun wukong but great sage. because he no longer had a name.

[@felipechavez218]

I dont remember if he says it in the video but if Wukong makes a clone out of himself, that clone can make another clone, that can make another clone, and so goes on. Now imagine if he makes 84.000 clones (one for each hair on his body) and each one of those can make 84.000 more clones, that each can make 84.000 more clones and so goes on, each as powerful as the original.

In Buddhism, being reborn is a cycle you want to escape. True immortality is literal, Wukong wanted to be untouchable, undying, heavens equal. His rebirth was planned because of the Buddhas circlet, where death is the only escape from a power that limits his own.

[@please-wake-up-now]

1:41, sun Wukong has achieved 7 layers of immortality in the myth. Martial art practices of immortality, wrote his name out of the death book for immortality, ate the peaches of immortality from the heavenly realm, ate some pills of immortality, when he gets captured he was put into a furnace to be burnt alive only for it to burn off his mortal body making him immortal again and a few more that I can’t remember off the top of my head. I will let you figure out how strong he is but to say one of his feats. He could circle the earth seven times from just one front flip jump. Also the staff that you use was actually a heavenly pillar that was used to measure the depths of the ocean which is why it can change its shape

This doesnt make me thing goku would lose tho…cant goku just blow him up till he got no immortality left

@@goofygoof212 Yes & no. Wukong when we was going out to the edge of the universe from just a front flip, it was done in under 5 minutes, where the length to it takes others years to even get closer to it. There’s also the reflexes that are faster than light, him copying his opponents feats to battle them so whatever goku could do, he would just copy and make better use of, and the fact that he is usually holding himself back during fights. Wukong could just end almost any fight from his laser vision that he used from birth.

Dont forget Budda put that golden head band on WuKong's head as he was flying as a bird in the beginning of the game. We all know he aint dead, he is probably just subdued and held under some kind of mountain and the head band. The golden head band was put on WuKong by the budda and it can NOT be removed(only by the budda), and the head band can tighten so tight to where WuKong feels like his head is bout to explore, and this is put on his head so someone can control WuKong.

[@walden6272]

Yup. I hope people realize Black Myth story is created by the dev and not part of the original story. In my opinion, Wukong would never have given up his Buddhahood, because that is simply not possible. Reach Victorious Fighting Buddha means Wukong is now truly omnipotent and unbeatable and his power and abilities is limitless and there is no headband that still binds him. He can remove it himself like the Buddha does because he is the Buddha too.

To answer the question about the peaches. Wukong was recruited to the celestial court because of his strength and they wanted him in their camp as a means of controlling him, so they promised him to be a part of them and have a title. They basically made him a stable boy, and he wasn’t really feeling that, so to calm him, they put him in charge of the garden where the peaches grew. I think it took 3,000 years for the peaches to ripen, and once they were, there were be festivities where they made the peaches into wine. Wukong overseeing the garden ate all the peaches, crashed the party and stole the wine

[@Pigpig55]

The concept of immortality in JTTW is like a scarce resource. You can renew your life length through various means, such as eating haven peaches(some could renew hundred years, some could renew thousand years, distribute based on ranks), eating pills, or Daoism/Buddha practices. The boundary between Gods and Yaoguais is very blurred. If one has been officially appointed/recognized by the celestial court, then he is a god, otherwise, those potent beings are often referred as Yaoguai.

[@walden6272]

Actually, Buddhahood is higher level than god level. In the Dharma (Buddhist's scripture), It is describe that Buddha visited God, the one who he is the creator, which the Indians call him Brahma. And this God thought he was all powerful and Omnipotent. So the Buddha challenge the God who is all seeing, that he can't find where Buddha hides. So Buddha disappears and the God uses his power and he was shock that he cannot locate Buddha, he search all the realms he created and every where in all multi-verse and still can't find Buddha. And he thought maybe the Buddha no longer exist and then he heard Buddha whisper these words "I exist in a place even you don't know where it is". That is when God realize he was not the most powerful. And Buddha then explain to the God how he came to be.

At the beginning of the story, he did, in a certain sense, "die," but he didn't truly perish. His six divine consciousnesses were transformed into six relics, which were then entrusted by Erlang Shen to the guardians of each chapter's boss. Moreover, when Chinese people talk about "immortality," they don't mean being completely indestructible; it usually refers to having an almost infinite lifespan. However, there are many immortals and demons who are truly indestructible, and Sun Wukong is clearly one of them. He couldn't be killed, so Erlang Shen had to divide his body into six parts and entrust each part to the guardians of different bosses.

Now thinking about the Bodhi Patriarch who taught Wukong, Journey to the West seems to be merely the concluding event in the larger Fengshen Yanyi universe. The richness and vastness of this mythological universe are beyond imagination.

Stuff like this catches my interest. There's something about supernatural phenomenons and science fiction that makes me want to know more. It's like being outside the box. I enjoyed this video.

I really loved this video, hope you do more of them along the chapters, I thing everyone enjoying the game would love to learn more about the ingame lore. Thanks for the amazing videos, love from Yemen ❤❤

[@tjb_247]

I am not highly knowledgeable about Chinese mythology. Most of my knowledge comes from fiction and fanfiction. So please excuse any mistakes: 1. So immortality here in the Chinese mythology, has many meanings and from what I know, it doesn't mean you can't be killed. It usually means you can't age. Immortal beings can kill or seal one another just fine. 2. There are different layers of immortality. Like a 2nd level or 3rd level immortal can easily snuff out a first level immortal. 3. Buddhism, Taoism, etc are different ways/paths through which one can achieve immortality. And it takes a long amount of time. Like thousands of years. Sun Wukong just speed run the whole thing by eating a lot of ultra rare peaches that they were saving up. 4. The end goal of those who practice Buddhism is to achieve Buddha, which means reach the level of enlightenment of Buddha and become equal to Buddha at the end. They say anyone and anything can be Buddha but they don't call anyone Buddha other than the real one. 5. Sun Wukong was sealed and his headband(crown) that is shown in the beginning while falling is the item that seals him. I don't know the story of Black Myth Wukong, so I don't know why he fell/ So hope this helps Afro! 😄

It was really interesting to see how you read Afro, thanks for sharing, I've always wondered how dyslexia actually works!

[@osvster]

3:56 Actually if we tell you about how he died, this heavily spoils the actual game. So I can't speak much. For the way to get that lore it might also involved a bit of spoiler. They will explain it to you if you went on a specific ending.

[@viewmann200]

I love how Afro is taking a step back to learn and understand the story

[@imarock.7662]

I am the textbook example of a Goku glazer. I am the one that goes into comment sections acting obnoxious being like "Can he beat Goku tho? Goku solos. No beating Goku tho." etc etc. And even I know that Goku is never touching Sun Wukong at all. Sun Wukong is INSANLY powerful.

I love these types of videos.. where you react to the lore of characters or games. Good break from the game itself

[@Bitscreed]

Wukong got into Heaven in the first place because they literally invited him there with a job offer and a fancy title, "Keeper of the Heavenly Horses", to keep him busy and stop him causing trouble. This plan actually worked surprisingly well...for a little while at least.

[@moonboicosmic999]

You doing definitely do more of these filler episodes where you watch videos and learn more about the lore of Wukong/the game. We're learning with you gang

[@dansu01]

Bro is the actual main character. We are NPCs in his story.

[@Black_Fyre94]

The relief I feel right now man. Now you’ll finally understand. Knowledge is truly power

[@cyberwolfy37]

I don't think you understand, the only way Kratos, any version of Kratos, could defeat wukong is before Wukong got invited to heaven. like best time is after he practiced the daoi and gain the 72 transformation. like that would be hard diff for young kratos with the blade of olympus. once Wukong was in heaven and did the whole shenanigans of eating the immortal peaches, drinking the immortal wine, and drinking the immortal pills. he was going to destroy heaven after that. Even Erlang Shan, who was the greatest warrior of heaven at the time, could only defeat him long enough so they can restrain him.

[@walden6272]

I actually think the only time Kratos could defeat Wukong is before Wukong learn his 72 transformation skill. Once he learned that, Wukong is hard to beat as his skills will allow him many ways to win against Kratos. So I think Kratos has to fight a raw Wukong, the one that was just borned from the rock.

[@anthonygagnon4702]

Bro, I LOVE THIS EPISODE. If someone says otherwise, please don't pay attention to it. This lore is so interesting that just getting to know more about it this way it truly satisfying

I felt just like u, I needed to know the back story, I found a good video that explained the story and I got hyped, if I find it I will send u a link, but this video is teaching me more as well, good job 👍🏽

[@jasonr5288]

7:43 - 8:06 when someone say they have "become buddha" or "become a buddha" what they are saying is that they have reached enlightenment or Nirvana. Saying you have literally BECOME buddha is inaccurate though. When people refer to THE Buddha, they mean the original buddha who first reached enlightenment under the tree, and the buddha is the example that all Buddhist strive towards. The Buddha is an individual like Jesus, but only in myth like Wukong is he depicted as a whole ass anime god being. In actual Buddhism the Buddha himself is not all that important, rather the principles and aspects that his journey and enlightenment represent, and what all humans should strive towards. I am not a Buddhist btw, this is an outside explanation so I doubt its 100% accurate

[@mudowadashidee964]
