History

Born to Son Goku and Chi-Chi in New Vegeta City, Gohan grows up among the city's Saiyan and Earthling defenders 16 17. At five, he rushes to Piccolo's aid during the battle with Semi-Perfect Cell. His anger triggers successive Super Saiyan breakthroughs; after freeing Piccolo and Krillin, he uses a Destruction Sphere supplied by Kashu with his own Kamehameha to destroy Cell 25.

Kashu later teaches Gohan to access his potential without relying on anger. Gohan develops the Mystic Form through meditation, while Piccolo continues to teach him combat techniques 30. After seven years of peace, he graduates from high school, studies ancient history at West City University, and dates Videl 35. He defeats her without seriously injuring her when they meet in the adult division of a World Martial Arts Tournament 37.

During training against the threat of Evil Buu, Gohan develops a prototype Beast Form 43. He later completes it while preparing to protect Videl and their unborn child 45. When he learns to reconcile Beast Form with Godly Power, Kashu appoints him Vice Leader of the Earth Guardians, placing him in command when Kashu is absent 49.

Appearance

Gohan's appearance changes markedly between his power states:

• Super Saiyan Second Grade: Deeper golden-yellow hair, a golden aura laced with heavy blue lightning, and a sharp, cold gaze 25.
• Initial Mystic Form: Black hair and brown eyes remain unchanged; a soft silver-white halo replaces the Super Saiyan's golden aura 30.
• Prototype Beast Form: Silver-white hair, deep-blue eyes, and a silver aura 43.
• Complete Beast Form: Shoulder-length deep-gold hair with red-tinted tips, crimson slit-pupiled eyes, and a faint halo rather than a prominent aura 45.
• Beast Godization: Rich gold hair and red eyes with vertical pupils; its presence is faint and peaceful, without an aura or halo 49.

Personality

Gohan wants the strength to protect his family and Earth, insisting on joining the Cell Games despite Piccolo's objections 27. His childhood anger gives him extraordinary power but initially makes that power difficult to control 25 30. As an adult, he seeks a way to fight with both instinct and reason rather than surrendering to either 45 49.

He shows restraint with Videl in their tournament match and offers friendship to Cell after Cell joins the Earth Guardians 33 37. Kashu cites Gohan's combination of combat talent and scholarly judgment when naming him Vice Leader 49.

Abilities & Skills

Mystic Form

Draws on Gohan's potential without depending on anger to trigger a Super Saiyan transformation 30.

• Learned through meditation and directing energy throughout his body; its initial stage still required consolidation 30.
• Later enhanced through genetic recombination, reaching Super Saiyan 3-level power without transforming 34.

Beast Form

A state rooted in primal life energy, first developed by combining Mystic Form with Super Saiyan 3 43 45.

• The prototype changes his hair and eyes and surrounds him with a silver aura 43.
• Completing the form requires Gohan to overcome his difficulty balancing reason, emotion, and fighting instinct 45.
• A spar with Kashu exposes weaknesses in Gohan's endurance and technique in the new form 45.

Beast Godization

Unifies the instinct of Beast Form with the order of Godly Power rather than forcing the two energies together 49.

• Matches Kashu's God Form 2 in their spar and consumes less energy than Kashu's form 49.
• Allows Gohan to fight with both instinctive ferocity and martial precision 49.

Energy Techniques

• Uses a Kamehameha combined with Kashu's Hakai-infused Destruction Sphere to destroy Semi-Perfect Cell 25.
• Fires an energy wave that interrupts Future Cell's attack on West City 26.

Relationships

• Son Goku — father; proud of Gohan's strength but concerned about his ability to control it as a child 25. Later celebrates Gohan surpassing him 49.
• Chi-Chi — mother 16 17.
• Son Goten — younger brother 36.
• Piccolo — mentor and close father figure; Gohan's attempt to rescue him sparks his first Super Saiyan breakthroughs 25 30.
• Kashu — mentor who teaches him Mystic Form and helps him develop Beast Godization; appoints him Vice Leader of the Earth Guardians 30 49.
• Videl — girlfriend and later expectant partner; protecting her and their child motivates his training 35 45 49.
• Cell — former enemy whom Gohan welcomes as a comrade after Cell joins the Earth Guardians 25 33.
