"Gohan's Metamorphosis" is the fifth episode of FUNimation's original English dub of the Dragon Ball Z television series, first aired the weekend of 11 October 1996 on American television as distributed in syndication to local networks by Saban. This episode's production features the Vancouver-based voice cast from Ocean Studios and a replacement musical score under the responsibility of Shuki Levy.

This episode was later replaced in FUNimation's home video releases by a redub first produced in 2005 (initially for the "Ultimate Uncut Edition" home video line) featuring the Texas-based voice cast and a new replacement musical score by Nathan Johnson. This version properly covers and separates episodes 7 and 8 (titled "Day 1" and "Gohan Goes Bananas" in the revised English dub), and serves as the basis for all re-releases moving forward.
