Gohan's very evident, clear, in our face inability to get angry.ABED wrote:And what about Gohan's demeanor in that moment says he's upset?
Since when was Gohan wanting to become a scholar some great secret that one needs to know him intimately to find out. That's the least thing he could've known about Gohan. And the fact that he mentions this makes it kinda worse, since it shows he is aware somewhat that Gohan doesn't live for fighting the way he does nor does he love anywhere as much as he does. That he should've known that Gohan wouldn't be happy about his father providing him with a 'fair fight'Here's another reason to think it's crap. EVERYONE who takes Piccolo's statement at face value ALWAYS miss that Goku tells Gohan right before the fight that if he wants to be a scholar, he first has to defeat Cell. So much for the BS theory that he doesn't understand his son.
Which wasn't much. It's reckless, but it wasn't luck that he was right. Gohan wasn't injured at all even before he transformed. [/quote]which gave Cell back the power he lost
No, but a life was lost. And a lot more could've followed. However much Cell lost is a power level debate I don't care to get into, but that's irrelevant eitherway. As they say, it's the thought that counts.
No, its about favorite iteration of Goku, which leads to some thinking about their least favorite, which Cell Saga provides. This moment in particular is pretty important as far as Goku's character is concerned.It doesn't paint him in a great light but seeing as how this isn't a thread about how moral Goku is, why does it matter?
