What happened? Everything about this OP screams that Gohan then Trunks and Goten would be the main characters. Why did Goku have to save the day?

Will you Gohanfags ever shutup?

The entire plot of dragon ball is "goku saves the day" and every event revolves around that idea

That's what makes this a shit series
>>
>>133667616
Except the Cell saga, which was one of the best sagas (the Cell part). Also to an extent, the Saiyan saga Goku didn't save the day, it took a combined effort (that's why it was also great).
>>
>>133667616

Not really. Goku gets his ass kicked a lot throughout the series. Off the top of my head:

>Loses to Jackie Chun in first Tenkaichi
>Loses to Tenshinhan in second Tenkaichi
>Has to sacrifice himself so Piccolo can kill Raditz
>Loses to Vegeta and Krillin/Gohan/Yajirobe have to beat him
>Loses to 19 and 20 and Vegeta has to fight them off
>Loses to Cell and Gohan has to beat him

He doesn't have anywhere near the best track record.

christ when is bulla gona come. time for trunks and and goten to grow up a bit.

Somewhere during the whole Super Buu part, Toriyama realized that Gohan didn't really fit the main character spot and decided to go back to Goku.

>Everything about this OP screams that Gohan then Trunks and Goten would be the main characters
The OP was made by Toei not Toriya.
>>
>>133667566
Because Toriyama made up the story as he went along and his original intention was for Gohan, Goten, and Trunks to be the new main characters. Either fan demand or editorial forced him to bring Goku and Vegeta back instead.
>>
>>133669917
What about his own preference?

>>133667566
Because that opening was made by people who had no idea what the plot of the Buu saga was going to be

OP give it up. Gohan will never, ever be cool again. There was a time though, and it has passed mein nigga.

Never forgot, the original legend.

isn't there a post like this.

EVERY FUCKING DAY

>This shot of Gohan with tears in his eyes was censored out of the original English dub in exchange for 2 minutes of Gohan modulating his voice at the sky with characters commenting on it
>>
>>133667566
To be fair Gohan Goten and trunks are basically the main characters for 60% of the buu saga.
It starts with Gohan training Goten
Goten and trunks battle in the World Tournament
Gohan fights Dabura and Buu. (gets whooped)
Goten and Trunks become the focal point of Babidi's rage and have to learn the fusion dance to defeat him.
Gotenks fights Buu both in the time chamber and outside of the Time chamber
Then Gohan fights Super Buu.

Almost every fight Buu has for the first half of the arc is against them. Goku and vegeta only came in at the end and even then they couldn't beat Buu without fusing into vegito
Goku and Vegeta would've literally been unable to beat buu if Mr. Satan didn't convince every human on earth to give Goku More than enough energy for the spirit bomb, which is the only reason it was powerful enough to defeat him.
>>
>>133667566
Maybe if you post this thread again we'll find the answer.
>>
>>133667566
Damn, Gohan's got some cool-ass bike.
>>
>>133670206
Certainly explains why there was no sign of Buu anywhere in the OP.
>>
>>133667692
The androids were cool too. Vegeta killing off 19 and then getting his as kicked by 18 was good.
>>
What is up with the increase in DB threads?
>>
>>133676243
Dragon Ball Super.

>>133667566
To all Gohanfags out there, here's something from the leaks of DBS chapter 6:

>So... from what it seems, Vegeta suggests to use Gohan because he has the highest potential and Goku basically offs him and says that Gohan is useless

Get btfo'd lmao.

>>133672760
Well, they had to replace Unmei no Hi with something right?
