Gohan Beast Explained

[@DomDomPop]

In a way, it’s almost like Trunks got a form that leans more into his Saiyan side (by way of Supreme Kai training) while Gohan got a form that leans more into his human side (by way of Supreme Kai training). Goku has chosen the power of the angels, Vegeta has chosen the power of the gods of destruction, and their boys have chosen the power of the supreme kais. That’s neatly poetic.

[@amosmaka6030]

To me it's like if Mystic Gohan is SSJ1 with Supreme Kai Ki and Beast Gohan is SSJ2 with Supreme Kai ki. Same way SSJB is SSJ1 but with God Ki. SSJ3 seems to only be achieved in the AfterLife or the Time Chamber like in a 4D dimension and not in a 3D dimension. Atleast those are my 3am Theories.

[@wren7195]

@@Haaton-of-the-Basement *smiles warmly, hugs and shakes her head* A pleasure to read your 3 AM theories. Something that... *muses.... oh and hey I'm drunk sorry!* interests me greatly is that even the Gohan Beast transformation was predicated by Piccolo's "death," and the variations we see during the ResF (mangavanime) and Gohan's reaction.... ...we're being shown that these people VERY genuinely know and are aware of the fact that "oh hey, you died yeah that sucks, you get a sundae courtesy of Radditz on your next trip etc." ..........but the issue isn't that they're lost and gone forever like death normally works. The real issue for these people is the pain they've been caused, that the experience isn't a vacation and "totally cool coz I know you'll be right back next week bro!" *looks down at her feet* This isn't exactly here or there I guess, just was something that's been stuck in my head for a long time. Someone I know asked my pastor "If God knew Jesus was going to just come back to life, what was sacrificed?" Real parents, real friends... you are going to sit there and watch your friend burn alive in agony and be like "It's fine it's a free respawn bro!" Thanks for letting me talk with you. Honestly, despite the anime's (obvious) canon/timeline issues for Goku in otherworld, I think the post Z era really handles SS3 quite well. It's a *MASSIVE* power boost, but it's almost like it's not "your's" .....the power's there, but you are not the deciding factor. Hell the entire transition to Super (to ME) embodies this concept. These folk are INSANELY powerful. I.... heh. I used to be a martial artist before my body gave out, and my brother (a teacher) was fifth in the world heavy weight "jiujutsu" competitor. At a year I won't say. And I'm a five foot three woman! I can do stuff! I can do stuff...... Sorry, I'm drunk and very sick, and quite tired. Nothing you said is wrong to me. The transformations lean more onto the Chi/Qi/Ki aspect of "what you are," the movement that makes you "you," while not directly structurally telling you that the "what" isn't the "who." Hopefully they believe you're at a point where your desire to learn exists, questions exist, and maybe we need to look into you a handful longer for raisins. I love raisins.

The thing I thought of after watching dbssh a few times was like the initial ultimate form mirrored Gohan's ssj2 first transformation, ungodly power with arrogance to match causing failure, but when he went beast mode it was similar to his initial rage state of just destroy the threat. His ssj2 was a consequence of being with Goku that long where he was still just playing with his weaker opponent, same with the ultimate form. The beast mode was him reliving the perfect cell fight and his mistakes along with ultimate vs super Buu, the culmination of trauma he refuses to relive where super Goku and even Buu saga Goku just didn't learn from his mistakes and Gohan is too smart to make the same mistake after being shown his hubris twice and weakness at not training because "dad and Vegeta can handle anything that comes our way" mentality. I hope we see in the future, Gohan actually keeps training and even takes up the offer to train with Goku and Vegeta a bit, along with Broly and maybe make a new friend in Broly since they are very similar

Honestly that's my favorite explanation because I play dragon Ball xenoverse 2 and in the game other races besides sayians can use beast and this explanation perfectly explains what beast is because for the longest time I just thought it was potential unleashed mixed with super Saiyan 2

[@ShadeDergon97]

This was almost what my theory as to what Gohan Beast is. You got Gohan with his Ultimate form, which draws out all his latent potential and all the power of his other transformations without the downsides of transforming into them, but not what he gets from his rage boosts; because that's not a power-up, but rather him having mental barriers, limiters that - whether consciously or subconsciously - stop him from accessing that power because of his nature, in that he doesn't want to hurt or kill others. Gohan Beast is him getting so angry, so furious that it awakens the raging beast inside, tearing down those mental barriers - those limiters he has in place and letting him access all his power, which is then being drawn out with his Ultimate form.

@Roberto The Super Mutant Not true at all… Goku had to train under extreme conditions to achieve Super Saiyan. If he didn’t train the way he did he would’ve gotten himself defeated on Namek. Yeah it was triggered by rage but I highly doubt he would’ve been able to transform without proper training. Same with Super Saiyan 2 for both Gohan and Goku. Super Saiyan 3 was a form he trained so hard for, initially his mortal body was very limited in its use and he stated he could only effectively transform in his heavenly body. SSJG was kind of an asspull as well with this ritual and all but his blue form is definitely down to hard training, both physically and mentally. Same goes for UI

@@JayJay5244 Yeah, even if the reveal of SSB is incredibly underwhelming and out of left field. It’s gotten some explaination that it was due to training the god form enough to go super saiyan on top of it.

@Roberto The Super Mutant For me, the super saiyan form has own levels (SSJ1, Grade 2, 3, SSJ2 and etc) but each of them, can be obtained through certain conditions, (mostly physical conditions which you get them through training) mostly the rage are used as activation of the form itself... Since if the saiyan have the strength to transform but dont know the form nor have will for it, then their emotions are the alternatives to trigger the form (mostly happen for their first time transforming) Plus after Frieza arc when Super Saiyan became a thing, the writers made the form itself has ascensions/next stages to it which achieved through mastering the form, like the SSJ Grade 4 or Mastered SSJ and seeking deeper power within the form itself then thats where SSJ2 came along and further on, but they're still both super saiyan forms...

I always love how characters are going through their own path to achieve higher power/transformation. It’s fun to see characters having their own unique form, broly having his iconic form (as a homage to his design, but still suitable to him), gohan having his beast form giving off the feel like when he first went ssj2, goku going through his own training with an angel (albeit he has two variations, one which is suitable for him, and the other being his best version), piccolo accessing two new forms (although he had to wish for it, but regardless, he’s catching up at the very least), his power awakening form (which could be comparable to the god or blue form of goku), and then accessing his orange form which was an extra given by shenron (which I thought was cool, and I like how the form seems like a homage to the dragon balls itself, the red eyes being the star, and the orange color of the dragon balls), and lastly Vegeta going through his ultra ego form which suits his nature of how he is whenever he’s competitive with goku or his opponents, Albeit he can get carried away with it. But overall, I hope we see more characters discovering their own form since it would get annoying seeing some characters following the same path (the ssj form itself being referred by Vegeta as a bargain sale).

I can definitely relate.

[@123GOHANZ]

I like to imagine Gohan Beast is just Gohan finally letting go of any inhibitions he has about fighting. It’s a well known fact that as a person he isn’t a fighter and only participates in battles because he has to, so it makes to me that when he’s fighting a small portion of him still reluctant to truly go all out. Even when facing against the scummiest of people I believe Gohan’s soul just isn’t in it despite it appearing like it is. However, the moment he sees an injustice happen or a loved one in peril his mind becomes so focused on it that he fully dedicates himself in a fight until he snaps back(like when he was a child) or wins(SSJ2 and Beast). Another theory I’ve recently come up with for Beast is Gohan’s unique physiology. He may not be the only saiyan-human hybrid but he is the only one to ever been born with a tail. Unlike Goten, Trunks, Pan, or Bulla who were born without one Gohan’s unique in the fact that he did which might explain why he’s the only one to exhibit massive power ups when he becomes angry. It’s entirely possible the beastly awakenings he had throughout his life is him tapping into the primal power that is the Oozaru inherent in all full blooded saiyans but tempered by his human side . Essentially, Beast Gohan is the perfect manifestation of power a saiyan-human hybrid can have. But that’s just a theory

Great explanation

[@rolltide91011]

I am SO GLAD you added the portion about his powers being unlocked as a boy but that potential was still growing as he matured. The thing people don't seem to understand is, at least the way I see it anyway, is that when Gohan had his powers unlocked by Guru, his potential at that time became his base. So of course, a fighter still has potential beyond their base state of being. Gohan's anger always increased his powers until he was finally able to control it and harness it to his full potential against Cell. That basically became his new base level. I believe he could have kept his Ultimate form that he was given by Old Kai if he would have trained and worked on maintaining it, but we know what path he took, unfortunately. At least that's the way I view his powers/potential.

[@blackheart4360]

Unleashed potential is not a kai technique. Even unleashing someone potential isn't really either. The elder kai gained the ability from a potara fusion with a witch. So therefore a magic technique.

[@priestesslucy]

The way it works- something Geekdom doesn't understand - is that Saichoro unlocks the recipient's potential. That releases any power they should have now, and sets them up for a relatively easy future if they put in some work because there are no longer any limits they need to break. There's a reason Piccolo fell behind Goku and Vegeta even though the Nameless Namekian has far more potential than either, and it's because Saiyans have a racial hax to blast through their limits far more easily than anyone else in the heat of intense battle. What Elder Kai granted Gohan was the ability to Unleash his potential. That's different, it bypasses the effort entirely.

in the buu arc when gohan is remembering what his father said to do, to basically fight with his feelings, and get angry, but gohan talking to himself says he is angry but he cant be like he was back then implying that he hasn't allowed himself to lose his head like he did against cell since that day, he's fought with a more even tempered emotional wheel so to speak, now in super hero gohan for the first time in id say 10 years maybe a little more, finally got angry again finally allowed himself to just let go and let his temper explode for the first time since he fought cell. sure he was angry against buu, in the TOP, against frieza when he was revived in ROF, and in BOG he was mad but he didnt lose his head, he didnt snap. finally allowing himself to snap and lose complete control, thats what this form is, the true power of ultimate gohan is gohan beast. also this is the first time that goten and trunks have seen gohan lose his head with anger, same with 18 to a lesser extent since she could hear everything from inside of cell

Oh my god, i never noticed about the ki color he released when he was powering up in front of Elder Kai after he tap into his potential. I guess it always makes sense, in the long run of his character journey has a hybrid saiyan trying to tap into his full potential because he could do it but just wasn't mentally ready yet. Beast Gohan was a working in progress looking at now. Like, a canvas for rage because it rage was always the factor for him to be stronger. The good nature, humbleness in the beggining, from being just a child wasn't letting him unleash it but he ended up unleashing. Excelent video, Geekdom! i honestly would love to see how Beast Gohan would fair agaisnt any GoD since it could be close but i think everyone wants to see first how he might act agaisnt Frieza.

@Marthouis Mcmiller The form wasn't inspired by it. Toriyama usually ignores the anime stuff and probably doesn't even watch the whole show. The only thing that was probably inspired was the aura, but not the form itself. That part in the Super manga of UI Goku and UE Vegeta powering up with their auras together looks exactly like Beast Gohan's aura also. This could just be a thing of unintentionally looking the same.

With potential unleashed being magic that allows someone with massive power reserves to use that power in base form, it seems like beast is just a limit-breaking form beyond super saiyan. Pretty much ssj5, which is cool considering it's appearance

[@Winddemonslayer]

I feel like Gohan was unknowingly catching up to Gohan Beast until he got his power level to a certain height so it could finally be awaken without destroying him, also Gohan claimed in the DBSSH movie that he trained and it’s really hard to believe that Gohan only trained just to learn the special beam cannon, I believe that that training made him strong enough and allowed him to unlock his Gohan beast form

[@youngdrea7560]

The concept with the mix breeds gains more emotions is true, look at future trunks and his rage.

[@derekhogan9685]

If you think about it, calling the new form “beast” is very on point. Gohan is the most potent hybrid but he is also the most contrast in nature. The others are more human than saiyan mentally but for Gohan you see an almost split persona at times. He’s normally very passive (aka Human) but when he’s triggered or first experiencing a new form/power he becomes as ruthless or brutal as a saiyan if not more so because he’s far more emotional than a saiyan.

[@iPavedTheWay]

I was mad before this video after I saw the movie, but this video Makes everything make sense.

[@benogle4951]

I think it's a really cool form and I have made an emotional connection with it in a way because it was the first new transformation I was there for, I started the franchise over the summer and so feel special because it was the first one that I saw alongside everyone else. However I do feel that it was a little bit too big of a jump, I think if they work to retcon ogt a little bit and either make it a little less strong, or make it to where he can't control it yet and he just briefly flared up into it for that moment or two and make it where he has to work hard to truly achieve that that power would make it better because it really devalues everything Goku and Vegeta have gone through to get stronger where we have Gohan's jumping so far in like 5 minutes surpassing everything Goku and Vegeta have done over years to get this strong. Make it feel a little bit more earned or believable as a jump because at this point Goku and Vegeta are pretty much irrelevant if Gohan can jump that far without even training. I mean that is just my opinion

[@Saztrah]

I like the idea that all Saiyan transformations are the same forms, but activated with different kinds of Ki. Ultra Ego is SS1 with Destruction Ki, SSB is SS1 but activated with the God Ki, Blue Evolution is SS1 Grade 2 with God Ki, etc. Then maybe this beast form is some kind of SS level infused with the mystic energies that were unlocked in him. Maybe this is SS1 with "Mystic Ki," and Gohan's Ultimate/Mystic form was a base form with this kind of Ki, in the same way that SSG was a base form but with God Ki.

[@RealTalkOrWalk]

I don’t know if Toriyama really even knew about this or if he did if he would’ve even remembered it but this form was hinted at in the Super anime. So in that amazing episode (I think it was episode 90) when Gohan fought Goku at full power & they had the 2 on 2 with Tien & Piccolo, after the fight Gohan said that he wanted to “go his own way & find a form that no one has ever done before” & I think this was just carrying over that plot line & bringing it full circle since it was never mentioned again in the Super anime, so that’s pretty awesome. Again, I’m not sure if this was intentional to align with that statement or just something Toriyama came up with while writing this (almost positive that this is the case bc that’s how he is as a writer) & it just so happens to narratively fit perfectly. Either way it’s a really unique form, I’m still trying to decide on whether I like it or not but when I think of it as part of this series (highly unorganized) continuity (or lack there of) it makes it seem a lot cooler. So yeah the concept of it it awesome, but the jury’s still out on the form itself.

[@j04370859]

Toriyama doesn't usually follow what Toei writes, but that could be true.

[@unicornbunny6307]

While they could go a bit less crazy with the designs , I really like this new trend of each character getting their own personalized form They all looked good with the original Z designs, but if they're going to have different color-coded transformations I do prefer them being associated with certain characters Actually, I would have gone a step further and let Vegeta have blue for himself for his god form and maybe held off on these new designs if I was writing things instead of having it brought in the way it was and taking away from the cool-looking red hair (which I think suits Goku's "yang" personality more) As a human myself Gohan and Future Trunks most relatable characters grew up with them and always like seeing them shine

[@TrevW92]

[@ianmathwiz7]

[@ariezthedragonx9]

I always thought of it like ultimate and ssj mixed together. He's clearly in ultimate form then mimics the super saiyan 2 transformation. They're literally telling you what it is. And it makes sense. The hair changes color and spikes up while having the white aura similar to ultimate form.

[@jms974]

This is what I think as well. All these people trying to get all complicated. Its dragon ball simple is usually the way they go. The form literally looks like teen gohan ssj2 but with the white aura from his mystic form and the blue sparks replaced with red. The white hair is probably just a visual tie in to mix both forms together.

[@jms974]

It even makes sense if you think about it. Mystic gohan was always just his base form maxed out to the full potential. No reason why he shouldn't be able to add super saiyan on top of it.

[@Amartin-mu6oj]

Dude, they literally showed and told us what potential unleashed is and how it works in both z and super. It's not a form, and it doesn't stack with ssj. It's magic that allows the user to draw out any potential power they have while in base form. Elder kai tells him to power up just like if he were turning into a super saiyan, and nothing happens. He remains in base, but his power skyrockets to a level beyond ssj3. In super, piccolo tells him to draw out the same power he used to fight buu, and they show us that accessing that power causes him to return to base while flickering in and out of ssj2. Dragonball isn't that complicated, but it's not nearly as simple as you're making it out to be. It's like how people assume ssb evolved is just ssb grade 2 because of the muscle mass, when realistically that form would just be a buffer blue with spikier hair. They go out of there way to show us that the form is full god ki just like god, instead of mixing super saiyan with god ki and perfectly balancing your ki like with blue

[@jms974]

@@Amartin-mu6oj "return to base while flickering in and out of ssj2" no he just goes into mystic there is no flickering in and out of ssj2. In terms of not being able to stack i can maybe buy that based on the elder kais explanation in z. But just like they retconned the potara earnings in super I wouldn't put it past toriyama to forget that explanation and let it stack. This is what I mean about people thinking too hard about it. Toriayama literally names the new movie super super hero because he forgot the last series had super in it as well. You think someone like that wouldn't retcon his earlier vague explanation of mystic and let it stack?

[@Amartin-mu6oj]

@@jms974 Activating it would be a more accurate statement, since it literally is his base form, he's just accessing the ability to use all that stored power in base. If you watch the scene, he actually does flicker in and out of ssj2. Even if it were a typical transformation like ssj (which would defeat the whole point, elder kai used the technique on him so that he didn'thave to transform), he literally does flicker in and out of ssj2 in that scene, so what are you talking about? What's retconned is retconned, but this isn't one of those cases. Literally nothing has been retconned, this form works perfectly as a possible result of a high-potential saiyan undergoing the elder kai's ritual. I'm not sure why this concept is so confusing for people, the elder kai literally puts gohan through the ritual to avoid using any transformations. He tells gohan to power up as if he were going super saiyan, and literally doesn't transform. He remains in base form, but his power skyrockets to ssj3 level with none of the drawbacks the form comes with. They literally make it as easy as possible to understand.

My perspective on beast Gohan is this. When he turned ss2 it was very well lead up to with him mastering ss so much and stacking his unleashed rage on too. Ultimate Gohan, while definitely an ass pull, was at least explained at the time. My problem with beast Gohan is that ultimate Gohan has always seemingly been him having control over all of his potential, ending the need to ever have him rage out again but beast Gohan not only goes against this, but isn’t explained literally at all. Recently in super, goku and vegeta have powered up with these insanely next level and complicated mentally focused limit breaking forms.

I call Beast Gohan the true realization of his character. He no longer has to choose between being a Saiyan (SSJ2) or a human (Ultimate). He's now the TRUE human/Saiyan hybrid as Beast Gohan is the combination of his SSJ power and his Ultimate power. As in; what would happen if Gohan was able to add his SSJ multipliers to his Ultimate form? Ultimate Gohan x 100 (SSJ2)? You were heading in that direction but stopped short. I don't think it's out of the question though.

[@DarthKamui]

The Super Saiyan forms, officially, tap into the potential of a Saiyan, but they only draw out portions of their potential. Gohan's Ultimate form releases the entirety of his potential and then some, so there's nothing left for the Super Saiyan forms to tap into. Toriyama described Gohan Beast as having awakened "the wild beast within him," so Gohan's Beast form probably just unleashes a deeper, more unbelievable potential that couldn't be unlocked through training, his Super Saiyan forms, and even his Ultimate form.

[@SSJ2Phenom]

​@@DarthKamui The fact that his hair changes color though, and that color is what you'd get if you mixed black and blonde, I'd say it's still connected to his SSJ forms. What would be the "ultimate power" for a human/Saiyan hybrid? A form that perfectly balances his Saiyan abilities/emotions with his human abilities/emotions and that's Beast Gohan or Gohan Beast. His Ultimate form with his SSJ multipliers stacked onto it.
