Favourite Entrance made by Goku?

Post by Krillin1994 » Sat Oct 08, 2016 6:23 pm

Obviously a staple of the Dragonball formula is Goku always jumping in just in the nick of time, so I thought we should have a thread to discuss our personal favourites.

For me the entrance Goku makes saving Tien from Drum is just incredible, Goku has been more serious this arc in general by that point but here he just seems so menacing and more physically imposing, a more lean face, he feels like a different man here.

Goku arriving just before Freeza killed Vegeta and when he ripped Buu in 2 while Satan was shooting him.
July 9th 2018 will be remembered as the day Broly became canon.

I love his arrival on Namek. From the Genki Dama music to his arrival on the battlefield, it's all perfect. I like how he just straight up ignores the Ginyu Force for like 10 minutes until he gets serious.
Heroes come and go, but legends are forever.

Rest in peace.

There's something to like about all of Son Gokuu's entries. They are classy af. My personal favorite would be against Piccolo Daimao. Him knocking the brain's out of Drum was brutal. Not to forget that badass pose.

Goku's arrival in the Saiyan arc and saving Gohan was just amazing.

Agreed, although I think Yamamoto's score makes it especially epic.

When someone tells you, "Don't present your opinion as fact," what they're actually saying is, "Don't present your opinion with any conviction. Because I don't like your opinion, and I want to be able to dismiss it as easily as possible." Don't fall for it.

I really loved Goku's entrance in M10 him just appearing from
the sky was so cool to me and the lines he delivers after just make it even more amazing.

I'd say it depends on the score (yes, really :lol: )
I love Goku's entrance in the Saiyan saga, rescuing Gohan at the very last second. However, Kikuchi's soundtrack in the scene (did he just use the second eyecatch track or was it just really similar? I don't remember right now) sounded too flat for me. As ekrolo2 said, Yamamoto's score adds more epicness to the scene. I also love how the Ocean score handled the scene (even if the first minute of the video sounds cheesy as hell).

If I stick with the Kikuchi score, I'd pick his arrival to Namek with the first Genkidama theme. It's a close tier though.

In terms of a "OH MAH GODZ IT'S GOKUU" moment, I'd have to say it's the moment where he saved Gohan. That, in its original form with Kikuchi's orchestral beauty was one of the best moments where silence was used.
That beginning silence accompanied with the Kinto-Un sound was freakin' amazing.

I think my favorite is a non-battle one - his showing up as a teenager for the 23rd Tenkaichi Budokai.

Just something about seeing the little kid you've been following all this time show up as pretty much an adult is so cool to me. And that's saying something since I started following the story when he was even older than that originally. I'm also quite fond of his showing up to the Budokai in the Boo arc too though.

If I had to pick one from when he showed up for a fight though...hmm...probably his arrival to fight Daimao, like everyone else is listing, though not even specifically him kicking Drum's eye out (though that is badass). I just like the way Daimao is kind of freaking out because he's so sure he killed the kid.
