Dragon Ball has debuted a brand new power-up transformation for Gohan, in the latest Dragon Ball Super movie, Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero. With Dragon Ball Super Hero now out in theaters over in Japan, fans are getting to see Gohan’s latest form, and the insane amount of game-changing power it brings with it. Dragon Ball Super saw Goku and Vegeta make exponential leaps in power across the series, culminating in the current respective powers of Ultra Instinct (Goku) and Ultra Ego (Vegeta). However, Gohan’s new “Son Gohan Beast” form has catapulted him back to the top echelon of Dragon Ball power rankings.
In a new interview (translated by @Herms98), Dragon Ball creator Akira Toriyama spoke about Gohan’s new “Beast” mode, and what makes it unique:
“Goha’s had quite a few transformations in the past, but this time he needed to awaken to a new one. Gohan has achieved his own unique evolution, based off the sort of awakenings he had as a boy,” Toriyama explains. I’ve even named this transformation ‘Son Gohan Beast’ in the sense that the wild beast within him has awakened.”
For the design, I tried drawing him with a scary face and pale skin, but somehow this didn’t feel like Gohan. So instead I just gave him the usual big upturned hair, which went over surprisingly well: everyone said “it looks so cool!”, Which actually made me feel humbly grateful.”
Gohan’s Beast form sees his hair once again go Super Saiyan 2-style spikey and long (like Young Gohan from Dragon Ball Z’s Cell Games arc), only his hair is silver like Goku’s Ultra Instinct form. Gohan also has freaky red eyes in Beast form, giving hint that some of that Saiyan Great Ape savagery is still burning inside him.
