* BullyHunter: One of the types of people Goku dislikes the most are those who intentionally abuse their power. When Krillin is put down by his former temple classmates for being a weakling, Goku tells Krillin to go all out when he fights them, when before, he tells Krillin to hold back to keep from hurting people. He also despise the Saiyans for being SpacePirates who commit genocide and wants nothing to do with his own race. Although Goku doesn't grow stronger necessarily to protect others, he does believe that being powerful gives you certain responsibilities, like not terrorizing those weaker than you (both Son Gohan and Roshi [[WithGreatPowerComesGreatResponsibility emphasized this lesson to him]]). Note that he extends this courtesy even to [[KickTheSonOfABitch very evil people]]; he has no problem [[GoodIsNotSoft killing threats]], but he absolutely cannot ''stand'' [[KickThemWhileTheyAreDown beating on opponents who can't defend themselves]], seeing it as both cruel and pointless. When Frieza kills Vegeta, Goku agrees that he and the rest of the Saiyans deserved to die, but still yells at Frieza for torturing and impaling a then-harmless opponent. And even at his absolute angriest, against Frieza on Namek, he stops the beating when Frieza ceases to be able to put up a fight and even tries to spare him before Frieza forces his hand (contrast [[ColdBloodedTorture Gohan vs Cell]]).

* ArchEnemy: While Goku is the poster boy for pulling DefeatMeansFriendship on his former foes, there have been several villains who have earned him overwhelming hatred.
** King Piccolo. His act of murdering Krillin drove Goku into an unstoppable rage that the boy had never ever felt in his life before. This was one of the few times Goku was driven to stop a villain by any means necessary, and never took any thrill from his fight against the Demon King. While King Piccolo's son, Piccolo Jr. initially inherited the title, his begrudging respect that he and Goku held towards one another and the fact that he was far less evil than his father, made it so that this dynamic dropped and switched to being TheRival and later friend.
** Frieza would be the No. 1 contender for this title, where Goku would never end up hating anyone as much before or since. Much like King Piccolo, Frieza murdered Krillin in cold blood (along with attempting to kill Piccolo and Gohan, while also killing Vegeta), which once again drove Goku into an unstoppable rage that pushed him into turning into a Super Saiyan for the first time. The feeling would be very mutual on Frieza's side, coming to resent the Saiyan for daring to defeat him. Their hatred for one another would last for years, with even death not being able to keep each other apart. Frieza would return again and again to take another opportunity to take revenge on Goku.
** Zamasu/Goku Black. The one person able to draw out a level of hatred from Goku to the same level as Frieza. What cemented Goku's hatred was Goku Black revealing that after stealing Goku's body, Black proceeded to kill Goku followed by Goku's family Chi-Chi and Goten. Zamasu/Goku Black become one enemy who Goku could never ever forgive and his fight with the MadGod dropped all thrill seeking and became deadly serious.

* BadassBaritone: In the dub, when Goku transforms into a Super Saiyan 3 and 4, his voice becomes noticeably deeper and serious.

* AesopAmnesia: If ''Resurrection 'F''' is any indication, Goku ''still'' hasn't learned his lesson in ''not'' giving murderous villains like Frieza a LastSecondChance just so he can get a rematch and a better challenge. In ''Super'', he spares Frieza again because he sees him as [[NotWorthKilling too pathetic to kill]].
** Or giving super powerful villains a Senzu Bean for the sake of having a good fight. It's especially bad when you'd think he'd learn after literally ''dying'' from Cell's self-destruction only to give Moro (a villain even ''worse'' than Cell in terms of atrocities) the same kind of mercy he gave to the bio-android.

* AntiHero: Goku in the early series was originally supposed to be a selfish hero who only grew stronger to fight strong people rather than to protect others. Some of his more heroic qualities were heightened in the Dragon Ball Z anime adaptation and he slowly became more of an IdealHero as the manga went on. It's only his BloodKnight tendencies that can override his common sense and make him remotely close to being an anti-hero.
