The question is, would Gohan have forgotten the seal? Zamasupocalypse Gohan's fault confirmed.

-clarification: Gohan is my favorite character-

...

No. He would not.

At least I don't think he would. I don't think Toriyama is above having it happen for the plot. I mean, in most cases, what the character does is in character, but I'm not merciful enough to say he won't have someone do something because the plot needs it to happen.

If anyone else is, I'm eat my .....hamburger

Who is Yamcha? Gohan's dad? Goku's brother?

Nope. He pulled some strings to ensure that a different timeline didn't end up with God Kermit but the universe Trunks and Mai came from is gone forever and as far as the new one is concerned, they're just copies.

That's depressing as fuck. Seriously, why blame Goku?

This is all Gero's fault for creating the damn androids in the first place.

Then again, Goku didn't killed him when he was a kid...

@Rob, it's just that every time people talk how Gohan wouldn't make this or that mistake and would be so much better at protecting the Earth, I remember that he doesn't do the single most basic thing needed for that - train. So forgive my gentle ribbing of Gohan, and just think of it as a counterbalance to the "Gohan should totally be Earth's protector, because he'd do it way better!" train of though, that is so common.

He would do way better though, since he's the only one of the protagonists who is actually a hero.

Plus, you say he doesn't train, but he was training with Piccolo after the whole Frieza thing, and this story arc ended with Gohan back in his Ultimate state when he said his goodbyes to Trunks.

Just like Future Gohan did way better? Sure could spread his wings and show his awesome effectiveness without Goku slowing him down. tongue

Gohan changed haircut... and that means he's back in Ultimate? Kind of jumping to conclusion there.

If he wanted to get serious gains from his training, he should have been training with Goku. Back in the Cell Saga, Goku's first goal in the HTC was to get Gohan to Super Saiyan as fast as possible so he could actually benefit from the training (and so Gohan could grow faster).

Well considering how the hair being in that exact position is our only real indicator of him being in Ultimate form... yeah that's a pretty good assumption.

His hair always has the fringe like that in his Ultimate State; it was the same in the Buu Saga, in the Battle of Gods Saga/movie, and his hair was in his pre-Ultimate Buu Saga style back in the Trunks/Gohan centric episode from earlier. He's back to being Ultimate Gohan now, he's just still useless because he doesn't have God powers from absorbing SSG, or from osmosis like with Vegeta and apparently Trunks.

Again, it's not like Gohan could have done anything; only Goku and Vegeta had God ki before Trunks got it for being the main character of the Saga. It's the same problem as in the Resurrection F part; even if Gohan still had his Ultimate power, he'd still get destroyed by Frieza just like everyone else not named Goku and Vegeta.

With how easy it has been made to get God Ki, Gohan should blow past Trunks' powerlevel in like a nanosecond.

Gohan's bang doesn't mean he's back to full power, it was just so Future Trunks could flashback to Future Gohan.

I've mentioned before how I hate how Gohan was depowered in the first place, not due to thinking he should be the hero, but because with Goku and Vegeta getting the Blue forms, it was unnecessary.

He was surpassed the moment Goku became a Super Saiyan God, and then when both he and Vegeta became Super Saiyan Blue (and Frieza went gold), so why did he need to be made weaker all of a sudden?
