Uh... Yes, he does. He feels anger, sadness, happiness, jealousy, arrogance etc.

Nice your comparing kid Goku before Toriyama even though that he was going to be an alien. At the very least kid Goku is weird he's often very bipolar and i would honestly be afraid to be around him as he's just too wild. Plus hes basically a gag version of bugs bunny, kicking nukes like soccer balls, breaking the fourth wall out of his authors manuscript and many times being inconsistent.

If this discussion is about kid Goku then this thread might aswell be locked cause you already provided your point, but if its about DBZ Goku then it holds a solid fact that Goku most likely wouldn't cry as he naturally never had an urge to no matter how bad things got during his battles.

Goku never had a reason to cry in the Z era. He was off screen training, dead, or dying most of time and he's a very positive person. And Goku has anger.

Remember when Krillin died?

I posted pictures of my manga and a gif. I own Dragonball manga and entire anime. But that's not why I had :shock: . The bold is why I had it.

That's actually more of a complicated wish than you might think... what counts as food? All plants and animals are likely edible to something. That includes people too... so would that make all life on Earth disappear?

My...my god that's perfect!! Why do the villains never try and break him emotionally that would totally work.

I am so torn on the idea of "Villain breaks Gokû emotionally". It'd be so interesting/difficult to watch/difficult to look away/absolutely heartbreaking. It'd be those big wide "10th anniversary movie" tears too, wouldn't it? God.... :cry:

I don't know if there were gonna be tears, but wasn't the pre-Toriyama draft of BOG gonna have scenes where the possessed main cast emotionally break Gokû down by calling him out on all kinds of things he's gotten passes on?

That sounds like one hell of a premise for a Dragon Ball Hentai. And ironically, it would have a better story than all of GT.

Getting hit really hard. A simple rifle bullet was enough to do it for kid Goku:

Also, yes, getting paralyzed with no hope of being healed would probably do it. That'd require getting rid of a LOT of plot devices, though. I mean, even if you destroy the Namek dragon balls, and the Earth dragon balls, and the senzu beans, and the healing tanks... there's still Buu. His magic can cure blindness and heal people from decapitation. I'm pretty sure he could heal Goku.

He's probably referring to the Bardock special. Zarbon was the one who first recommended destroying Planet Vegeta because the saiyans were rapidly growing in strength.
It was actually Beerus disguised as Zarbon #StayWoke
Herms wrote:The fact that the ridiculous power inflation is presented so earnestly makes me just roll my eyes and snicker. Like with Freeza, where he starts off over 10 times stronger than all his henchmen except Ginyu (because...well, just because), then we find out he can transform and get even more powerful, and then he reveals he can transform two more times, before finally coming out with the fact that he hasn't even been using anywhere near 50% of his power. Oh, and he can survive in the vacuum of space. All this stuff is just presented as the way Freeza is, without even an attempt at rationalizing it, yet the tone dictates we're supposed to take all this silly grasping at straws as thrilling danger. So I guess I don't really take the power inflation in the Boo arc seriously, but I don't take the power inflation in earlier arcs seriously either, so there's no net loss of seriousness. I think a silly story presented as serious is harder to accept than a silly story presented as silly.
