When will people move on from posting the "GT Logic" video, or making fun of Yamcha, or arguing whether Super Perfect Cell was stronger than Gohan?
I still haven't moved on from "Wolf Fang GUN
" personally.

I'M MR. MEESEEKS, LOOK AT ME!Personally, I am happy that Gohan is living a happy and productive life, and it seems he's at least maintaining his power instead of getting weaker.
Then again, I never found Gohan to be interesting on his own. He works as a good compare/contract to Goku, and I love his moments with Krillin, Piccolo, and later Videl. On his own, I always found Gohan on the boring side, especially sine his main gimmick was getting mad and wrecking stuff. He had no real fighting style and just kept using bull charges, so he wasn't even interesting in a fighting sense unlike most of the characters. Also never bought into that Gohan was the strongest unfused character by the of of Z since ten years past since the defeat of Buu and I'm certain Goku trained all ten of those years while Gohan relaxed, just like what happened between the Cell and Buu Saga. Glad that Resurrection 'F' prove me right on that one.
I always found Goku fun to watch and hilarious. Seeing him being clever in battle and in life when everyone writes him off as an idiot it always a highlight for. Goku isn't complex, but he does have some depth.
Gohan really has none of that. He isn't funny or clever, except when he's being an utter dork. Which is probably why I like Gohan as an adult more than I did when he was a kid.
Its always been part of his character, it just wasn't that noticeable because he was kind of Out of Focus in Dragon Ball Z.

Its still something at least and it was enough to get him some fans through the years. What I don't get is why do people seem to have an issue with his fans being upset about how he's been recently.
Its like, you see a character you like and grow up and they're slowly stripped of the things you initially liked about them, and then continuously remind you about it. But then people aren't supposed to be just the slight bit annoyed by it?
A lazy millennial who's good at what he does.Imagine if Goku gradually starts to lose his appetite for getting punched in the crotch, and settles down to be a farmer with Chi-Chi.
But if Super is canon and happens before, Gohan is only the strongest if Vegeta and Goku suffer a massive loss of power before the 10 years is up.

I'M MR. MEESEEKS, LOOK AT ME!I don't mind people upset, but to hear the same complaints all the time about Gohan is tiresome, especially since his development fits his character. He never left liked to fight and when he did he wasn't very good at it outside of him overpowering his opponents. He only fights when he has no choice, which hasn't happened in Super since Golden Frieza. If he simply maintain the power he had in the Buu Saga and not regress again, then that's a good thing.
Gohan was never confirmed to be the strongest at EOZ. Fans only assumed he was because of his Ultimate power. Ten years past since Buu's death and Uub, and Goku is always training and growing, while Gohan has proven himself to be a slacker during times of peace. Goku being stronger than Gohan by the end of the series should surprise no one.

Yes, but simple training can only get you so far, especially since Goku had absolutely no one who could actually push him besides Vegeta, and there's no indication they ever trained together. Goku simply training as is will do about as much as Tien's constant training, unless he has something to push him.
Let's see if you can get past my Beelzemon. Mephiles, WARP SHINKA!Yeah see, the whole Saiyan thing about training didn't even get made until Battle of Gods, so it's not applicable to a time where it didn't exist. It's like asking why Goku never became a God again during GT; because it hadn't been invented yet for that to even be an option.

Goku being stronger was not established until long after Z was over and the series started making him stronger than Gohan. You can't say you always assumed that when it still a relatively recent thing, because until Battle of Gods, you couldn't assume that Goku was stronger based on anything in Z's epilogue.
Gohan could have still been stronger, but simply choose not to enter the tournament.

A lazy millennial who's good at what he does.Could have been. Either way, Gohan being the strongest unfused character by the end of Z was never stated or even implied. Which is why I said I suspected that Goku could have gotten stronger in those ten years since Goku always train, while Gohan trends to slack off. The current material only confirmed what I suspected, although I thought after what happened with Buu that Gohan would maintain his power, not regress again.
And Saiyans having no hard limited was established before BOG. Goku and all the other Saiyans kept getting stronger long after most characters capped like the Buu Saga.

It was never stated in BOG who was stronger than who other than Vegeta being behind Goku. It's all assumption that Gohan was still the strongest in BOG. Which is my point. Gohan was the strongest after Buu, and fans assumed he remained the strongest, despite the number of years that past and Gohan's habit of slacking on his training.

And then he changed his mind. Honestly, I don't blame them for wanting to hammer it in that Gohan's fighting days are over and he'll never be the hero.
I understand some frustration, but people really should just move on already.
