Goku having bumped his head limited his potential?

[floofychan333]

I'm sure Kid Goku was considerably stronger than Baby Goku because he had training from Grandpa Gohan and even that gave him superhuman strength.

Based by Roshi's words, Goku was very wild before bumping his head, so by bumping his head not only did he lose his memory, he also became good-natured. We don't know if he would have killed Gohan or if he would have become good over time by staying with him. It could also be a sort of "lion pet" thing, where a lion raised by a human will become good only towards that human, and aggressive towards the others

Thats the only road bump really, because in Z its said that it was because of the head trauma that Goku had a reset personality, but then he could very well have been wild out of just maladjustment to living with Gohan and his good-natured behavior came from being nursed back normal. (again head canon) With the amnesia applied. Because this is all a retcon, its hard to really say Goku was born pure hearted without stretching the circumstances of interference.

No Goku bumping his head, made him exceed his potential, a million times over. Goku would never have gotten as strong as he did, if he was evil. The environment he was in wouldn't allow that

He was low-class, he only got so far by getting freebies at every turn.

He got so far because he worked hard for his power. The closest he ever got to a 'freebie' was drinking poison water that could have killed him.

... And a SSG ritual where he held hands with his family for a few seconds. Although knowing goku, that was probably the first time he's done it haha.

I think he was referencing how he kept stumbling on to some amazing teachers.

Also is it working hard if you enjoy training? I enjoy working out, so I never considered it working hard.

Goku was the best candidate for that Super Saiyan God power up.

I think he was referencing how he kept stumbling on to some amazing teachers.

He sought many of them out and he trained diligently. You can have the most amazing teachers in the world and it wouldn't make a bit of difference if you don't put in the effort.

Also is it working hard if you enjoy training? I enjoy working out, so I never considered it working hard.

The two aren't mutually exclusive. You are doing your damnedest to hate on him for some odd reason.

That's a lot of assumption. Being evil doesn't effect one's potential.

Goku could have wiped out humanity under the right conditions. Just as Goku managed to become the strongest on Earth under the right conditions.

No, I'm going to say it. The reasons why Goku became as strong as he did. Gohan. Roshi. Korin. Kami. Ultra divine water, have suddenly become locked off from him, now that he's evil. What are these right conditions? There aren't any.
