Appearance

Goku wears a bright orange martial arts uniform and is usually seen with an open, eager expression even in dangerous situations. 62 63

• Unruly, black spiky hair. 62 67
• Black eyes. 63
• His restrained ki can still disturb the surrounding air and ground when his fighting spirit rises. 62 67

Personality

Goku is driven by a pure enthusiasm for martial arts. Learning that the Sixth Universe may field powerful opponents immediately excites him; he wants adversaries strong enough to make his “bones itch.” 62 He readily declares his intent to challenge Chen Feng first, viewing the unknown Saiyan King as an opportunity for an exceptional fight rather than a threat. 63 67

His directness extends beyond combat. Goku openly asks why Chen Feng conceals his ki because he cannot understand why a fighter would hide power, preferring to test ideas through action. 67 Despite this simplicity, he respects opponents’ convictions and agrees to wait for the official tournament rather than forcing an immediate spar. 65

Goku struggles with formal academics, particularly arithmetic, but persists until he passes the tournament’s written test. 71 72

Abilities & Skills

Saiyan Combat Instinct

Goku immediately recognizes the danger posed by Chen Feng’s seemingly absent ki. His body reacts with intense focus despite his inability to sense a conventional energy signature. 63

• Is regarded as one of the two strongest Saiyans of the Seventh Universe alongside Vegeta. 11 56
• Becomes more energized rather than intimidated when facing powerful opponents. 62 63
• Can restrain his aura, though his energy may still leak out when his excitement rises. 62

Ki Perception

Goku can assess the quality of another warrior’s energy, describing Cabba’s ki as pure and recognizing the divine nature of Cabba’s Super Saiyan Blue aura. 64

• Could not directly sense Chen Feng’s ki, instead perceiving him as an unnerving “emptiness.” 63 67
• Notices the scale of Frost’s power and treats the battle seriously when Frost reveals his Final Form. 89

Super Saiyan Blue

A blue aura briefly flickers around Goku when his fighting spirit surges during his first meeting with Chen Feng. 63

Relationships

• Chen Feng — Potential rival from the Sixth Universe. Goku is immediately fascinated by Chen Feng’s strength, promises to challenge him first, and develops mutual respect with him. 63 66 67
• Vegeta — Fellow Seventh Universe Saiyan and frequent sparring partner. Goku tempers Vegeta’s pessimism, while Vegeta criticizes Goku’s habit of openly displaying his power. 62 67
• Krillin — Fellow Z Warrior who teases and encourages Goku during the written test, while also cautioning him about Chen Feng. 67 71 72
• Majin Buu — Teammate whom Goku supports after Buu fails the written test; he wants Buu included because he wishes to see him fight again. 73 74
• Cabba — Sixth Universe Saiyan whose pure energy and Super Saiyan Blue form impress Goku. 64 102
• Champa — God of Destruction who arranges the inter-universal tournament; Goku anticipates the powerful opponents Champa may bring. 62
• Whis — Administers Goku’s written test and approves his correct arithmetic answers. 72

Story Role / Major Arcs

Sixth Universe Tournament Invitation

Before appearing at the tournament site, Goku is identified as one of the Seventh Universe’s strongest Saiyans and a major concern for Champa and Vados. 11 Chen Feng accepts Champa’s invitation partly because he has long wanted to fight Goku and Vegeta. 56

Arrival of the Sixth Universe Team

At the inter-universal staging ground, Goku eagerly awaits strong opponents and dismisses the possibility of being disappointed by weak ones. 62 He meets Chen Feng, immediately senses that the Saiyan King is extraordinarily powerful, and introduces himself with open admiration rather than hostility. 63

Goku also meets Cabba and is surprised that a Sixth Universe Saiyan has mastered Super Saiyan Blue under Chen Feng’s instruction. 64

Tournament Preparation

Goku agrees to delay sparring Chen Feng until the official event, preserving the anticipation of their eventual match. 65 He and Chen Feng express mutual respect over their strength and respective goals, then exchange a symbolic midair fist bump. 66

Written Test and Tournament Opening

Whis’s mandatory written test causes Goku more distress than an impending battle. He passes questions involving one plus one, two plus two, and four plus four only after visibly working through them with his fingers. 71 72

Goku supports allowing Majin Buu into the competition despite Buu’s failed test, arguing from his excitement to see Buu fight. 73 74 He is listed fourth in the Seventh Universe’s battle order as the tournament begins. 75 76
