What is this? -- Zoe

Gohan is a character in Dragon Ball Z. --Brion

Mystic Gohan

In my translation, Rou Dai Kaioshin states that it takes five hours to perform the power-up ritual, and that the effects last twenty hours. Is this just in mine, or is that what he actually says? Beowulph 05:27, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

Your translation is wrong sorry, it takes 25 hours, 5 hours for the ceremonie and 20 hours to make Gohan Unlock His Full Potential. --Son Gokou 01:55, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

I am just wondering, scince it is not known whether or not Mystic is a power up or transformation, should we state it as that? I would like to know other peoples opinions on this topic. --User:Nsmith4658

Full/Permanent

Guys whatever, stop the edit-war. Most commonly used fan-name is Full Power. Use that one. Kusonaga 08:10, 10 January 2006 (UTC)

that's a long time.

Can you guys read?

Seriously, it's so stupid to contuinally change the honor and dignify as well as the Full Power/Permanent Distinction. Do I have to get an admin? Kusonaga 09:16, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

That might be best. This particular user who keeps changing things back to his version doesn't appear to be paying attention to any comments made in the edit summary about not changing things that shouldn't be changed. He will most likely continue this foolishness until somebody stops him. Please contact an Admin and have 68.122.219.139 told to stop the adding of false information. If he continues his behavior even after that, he may need to be banned.

Unnecessary Info about the Mystic power up

There is some unnecessary information about the Mystic power up. There are no facts about the power up during the GT saga, because he doesn't fight or has not fought in a long time. The same happened when he became an adult; he lost the motivation to transform into a SSJ2, so he weakened a bit when he did go SSJ2. Gohan was only half-saiyan, so he has half the fighting instinct of a saiyan. The other half was in the books.

Only the facts from the show or certain movies should be discussed, because fan information can get rediculous (SSJ5 for instance, even though Bulma mentioned this in the GT Saga)puk 00:11, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

I added the left-out information in the mystic section (3rd paragraph). We forgot that this mystic powerup was still asleep like all of his powerups and when fully awake, he's a force to be reckoned with. puk 00:32, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

In the case of Gohan turning SSJ2 in GT, wouldn't he be even more powerful since he was supposed to keep his "full" power for the rest of his life so wouldn't transforming into SSJ or SSJ2 make him even more powerful. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 69.159.81.118 (talk • contribs) .

Lineage

Just wondering if it's worth mentioning that Gohan is part demon. Considering that Chi-Chi's father is a demon. That bit is omitted from his name in the english dub, but his original name of Gyuu Mao means "Ox Demon King" (I've seen some Westernize that to "Demon King of the Oxen"). Onikage725 18:01, 24 February 2006 (UTC)

Gohan is not part demon. Gyuu Mao is not a demon either. He is just a large human. The names of characters may have certain meanings, but that doesn't make them anything other than what they are. After all, Piccolo Daimao was repeatedly called a demon, even taking the title "Demon King Piccolo". He wasn't a demon at all, though. He was a namek. Just pointing out that not everything that is said should be taken literally.

Daishokaioshin 09:52, 25 February 2006 (UTC)

Actually Piccolo is a poor excuse. Ma Junior was born naturally as a Namek (hence why he had the capicity for good), but Daimao is literally a being of pure evil. Kami shed his negative energy and it took form. Why else do you think every child of his aside from his "reincarnation" was a demon? Spawning those abominations isn't a normal Namekian ability. As for Gyuu Mao, I see your point. It certainly isn't elaborated on in the series. However it seems to me that given the tales of a pissed off Gyuu Mao eating passers by (hardly normal behavior for a normal person), and his daughter's natural aptitude for battle (which isn't fully explored only because she settles down as soon as she marries Goku), it seems that there's more beneath the surface than just human blood. Also, if you compare Gohan to Trunks (I'm thinking more Mirai, as neither Chibi Trunks or Goten faces the same dire circumstances without being fused), Gohan was capable of intense explosions of rage that granted him an nforseen amount of temporary power. Trunks never really showed that, only that he was somewhat stronger than his father. *whew long winded, gomen :p Onikage725 21:57, 28 February 2006 (UTC)

Age

Alright, listen up Gohan was nine when the androids appeared, he spent a year in the time chamber, and had his eleventh birthday during the ten days preparing for the Cell Games, therefore at the time of the fight with Buu, would make him 18 years old. Jman5 22:05, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

Actually, Gohan started the series at 6. He spent a year training with Piccolo, making him 7. There was at least another year after they got back from Namek, since the Namekian Dragon Balls recharge every half of an Earth year, and they were used three times, I think (the first time they were already charged because of Elder Muuri becoming the new caretaker of the Dragon Balls, so they didn't have to wait). That would make Gohan 8. There were three years of training for the Androids, making him 11, followed by another year in the Room of Spirit and Time. Gohan was then 12. 7 more years would make him 19. Since 19 is a bit old to just be starting high school (at least in America), most people argue and say Gohan was younger, just to fit their preconceptions of an acceptable age for him. And in the original Japanese version, Gohan was 4, not 6, so he would have been ten after his training in the Room of Spirit and Time, and 17 when he went to Satan City High School, which is a much closer age to when people actually attend high school.

Also, your information doesn't add up. If Gohan was 9 when the Androids showed up, then he would be ten after his training in the Room of Spirit and Time, just like in the original Japanese version. Either way, Gohan would not be 18.

Daishokaioshin 21:25, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

It does add up, buddy! That's why I stated "he had his eleventh birthday during the ten days preparing for the Cell Games." You need to read more closely next time. Jman5 22:05, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

It actually does add up dub-wise. They claimed he was 5 in the beginning (6 by the arrival of the Saiyans). Onikage725 01:39, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

Gohan learning Kamehameha?

The wording of the article implies that Gohan didn't learn the Kamehameha until training with Goku to fight Cell. However, I seem to recall Gohan doing Kamahamehas earlier than that. There's only one I can recall with almost certainty, and it was in either Dead Zone or The World's Strongest, literally years before Cell. In one of those two movies, three characters (I think Goku, Gohan, and Krillin) did a simultanious Kamehameha against an enemy. And I think there were others in the early years of the show, but I can't recall where exactly. 4.227.105.224 20:33, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

---

It was Goku, ROSHI, and Krillin who used Kamehamehas in World's Strongest, Gohan has NO combat experience in Dead Zone, and even if Gohan HAD used a Kamehameha in World's Strongest (which he didn't) it wouldn't have mattered, because that movie is non-canon. Gohan didn't use the Kamehameha until after his training with Goku in preparation for the Androids at LEAST. I don't recall him using it directly after that, but he may have learned it partially or completely, and just not had the chance to use it (improbable, but possible). We only know for SURE that he learned how to use it after his training in the Room of Spirit and Time.

Daishokaioshin 21:16, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

The only training Gohan had in Worlds Strongest was with Piccolo, and his only major ki attack was the Masenko. And don't forget that movie is utterly non-canon, as evident by the fact the Goku can use Genki Dama, Piccolo's batting for the good guys, yet Goku isn't an SSJ and their opponents are actually at a level that Roshi is an effective combatant. And Dai, you're right- Gohan doesn't use it until the room. He didn't even really fight after the Garlic Jr Saga (where he was all about the Masenko) until then. He trained, but when it came to the early android stuff he went from spectator to transportation (carrying Yajirobe, Bulma, and lil' Trunks out of harm's way). Onikage725 01:30, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

Gohan's full power question

I have a question for anyone in the know. I have up to Super Buu's emergence in the manga, and haven't read beyond that. Does Gohan come off as stronger compared to other heroes in the manga? Because I know Gohan is supposed to be (according to Toriyama) the strongest non-fused character by the end, but having seen the anime I know there's plenty of stuff that smells like filler (but I can't say for sure) that has Goku and Vegeta rocking out more than they have any right to. Onikage725 02:11, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

I haven't read the Gohan vs Super Buu part, but I did see from Vegetto vs Super Buu w/ Gohan all the way to the end. In the anime Goku and Vegeta fight Super Buu inside his own body for quiet a while, but in the manga Vegeta wastes no time in pulling out Fat Buu.KojiDude 15:49, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
