Just started watching Dragon Ball Super for the first time, and Goku would 100% do this.

[-] massive_bereavement@fedia.io 41 points 3 months ago

Goku would bring the ring to Mordor on foot, take the whole season, then straight away give it to Sauron. They will fight, Goku would lose, then Sauron would kill Krilin and Goku would defeat Sauron.

The end.

You forgot about piccolo getting his left arm chopped off

To be fair, throughout the dragon ball franchise, they do try and stress that while Goku has morals, he is not a hero - his main goal is just to fight the strongest beings he can find, and win.

If Cell and Frieza weren't direct threats to his family, Goku would 100% have let them get stronger so he had more sparring partners.

Hell, in one of the series (can't remember if it was non-cannon GT or not) he straight up trains Uub, Buu's non-evil reincarnation.

Last episode of DBZ, and recurring in GT

[-] DarkSirrush@piefed.ca 9 points 3 months ago

That explains why I couldn't remember if Uub was cannon or not.

Sucks that GT isnt cannon though, I liked the half monkey form, to me its way cooler than 'hair turned blue/pink'

[-] cannedtuna@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

It appears in Daima which I think is cannon

[-] QueenHawlSera@sh.itjust.works 4 points 3 months ago

Daima is not canon as it directly contradicts super.

[-] Wataba@sh.itjust.works 7 points 3 months ago

Toriyama rewrites the canon as he pleases.

“I’ve altered the cannon, pray I do not alter it any further”

[-] Sanctus@anarchist.nexus 2 points 2 months ago

But it is a lot of fun.

Heeeereee coooooommess

A new sttorrryy

[-] FatVegan@leminal.space 7 points 3 months ago

I think that's the best part about dbz and dbz discussions. Oh, you think that because you assume goku is smart and a hero. He is really good at fighting. He's the best at it, no one has fought more uphill battles than him. He knows his shit when it comes to fighting. Everything else? Don't expect anything from that guy

[-] DarkSirrush@piefed.ca 3 points 3 months ago

The fact that he managed to have kids, even with Chi-Chi's guidance, is a bloody miracle.

Honestly i suspect it was a 'Goku was told to lay there and not move until given permission' situation more than anything else.
