You forgot Chi Chi was also able to ride the Nimbus cloud when the two of them met, that distinction has always been what proved to me that she and Goku are perfect for each other.
She still could after they got engaged when they went on those filler adventures after the tournament, unlike Bulma who could never ride the Nimbus Cloud .
@@minhkhai5614 she did ride the Nimbus when Goku and Krillin were taking her to Master Roshi's place. Krillin had to hold to Goku in order to stay on the cloud but Launch was just sitting on the cloud with no problem, at least with the purple hair.
The best things about Goku is that he always moves towards improving himself w/o malice, on top of encouraging others to do the same. Something most people should try to do.
Makes sense that Goku achieved an enlightened fighting state(UI) while Vegeta's new mode hints toward him becoming a god of destruction. Goku is enlightened. Vegeta is on his own path towards enlightenment yet his pride may hinder him.
@@jackjacques7495 "His own" Path. There isn't one correct answer to enlightenment. Each person has to find their own way with the cards they have. So for Vegeta becoming a Destruction God would be his enlightenment or "The most powerful person in the universe"
People always complain about characters like goku and superman not being relatable and then proceed to bandwagon on the vegeta batman train cause "they have a dark side" , but honestly I always found myself relating much more to goku than anyone else. Just a simple dude who wants to become the best version of himself and doesnt like seeing others get wronged. Very simple and honestly very much like myself and thats why I love em.
I wouldn't want Goku any other way! I always felt like he'd be the easiest to get along with and hang around since anyone can be their honest self with him. No judgments, just acceptance.
I know this is old, but you cannot compare Superman to Goku. They are complete opposites in concepts. People don't hate on Superman because he's an uncorruptable good guy. If that were true, people would hate on Spider-Man too. People hate on Superman because he's perfect and has no limits or weaknesses (aside from the obvious rock). Goku is a person who always has limits, but his will and drive to succeed allows him to break those limits.
Now that I think about it, Goku may not be a traditional hero but he is the type of hero you would see in Greek mythology. One of the reasons why he's my favourite character.
Ima say it. This might be my favorite video of yours. Not only am I getting an in-depth look at the character of Goku but I am also getting rich information on a culture that I am not familiar with this shit is Gold. This damn video is inspiring ...it motivates me to make better content myself. Even thoe THAT wasn't the intent but you did a hell of a job with this!
@@ryanr20091 It has a meaning if it's used for courts purposes. If not, then what's the point of courts? Murder is a precise term. It has a narrow definition.
You’re 100% right on the pure hearted thing we are all Pure from. I love how as we get older we realize Dragon Ball correlates to the spiritual realm, Good vs Evil
If one of Toriyama's goals was for Goku to maybe appear as if he might not be a good guy then I think he failed. Goku is shown from the beginning to have some sort of altruistic nature from the outset through his actions.
@@General_Lee439 a lot of what toriyama says now contradicts what he wrote...he wrote goku to be one with nature make others change on his side and to be a role model..he's the opposite to blooma...whose bad at first....now can he be a better dad friend and defender protector sure but he's not that bad like toriyama clams...he has his faults but so do we all..it makes him relatable
Goku is the hero...he's the protag..he's the japan superman even if he does not want to be...he inspired other main heroes in other mangas....he is static flat in his personality...he changes others he rarely changes...that's the point...sure he has some negative aspects but the good outweighs the bad
Great editing and commentary. Also good inclusion of maslow's theory in the discussion. Geekdom you deserve all the success you receive. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of content in the video. keep up the good work
This is an awesome breakdown bro. And i especially dig how you took the time to add in a moment to let the people acknowledge and give them a chance to reflect upon themselves..... I've held dear to this hope of purity as a person since my childhood and I have learned a tremendous deal of growth and release over the years and have observed MANY patterns and breakdowns from those observations that I use to help others now that I am a lil bit older. If you or anyone ever need someone to talk to or help process stuff, let me know. It would be to God's glory to see people be restored and healed... much love bro
Killing as a last resort and in self-defence isn't really murder. And considering who Frieza is, how evil he is, it might even be unethical for Goku _not_ to kill Frieza in that moment on Namek. He's just too dangerous to be kept alive.
It is murder doesn’t mean you just go and kill someone murder is murder no matter what circumstance it just makes a murder justified murder is the act of killing another nothing more nothing less if it was an accident it would be manslaughter
So that explains Vegeta, Vegeta was born into his primal saiyan heritage and instincts, so he was in his pure nature a prideful super elite warrior, that he was born as So Vegeta being able to turn Super Saiyan taps into him being pure of heart he was a pure SAIYAN that was broken down to the point of him realizing he was actually weaker than Goku all of his insecurities turned into truths and his heart became pure, thus the transformation
I disagree, it seems like the initial SSJ transformations are usually triggered by loss and rage. Goku lost Krillin, Future Trunks lost Future Gohan, and Gohan feared losing his friends. In Vegeta’s case, he lost himself. Moments before he turn SSJ, he gave up on being a SSJ and better than being Goku and that rage of losing his purpose in life triggered him to SSJ. That’s my take on it.
@@Demoniserx3 yeah but u gotta be pure heart to unlock it because back in saiyan saga through namek saga Vegeta was evil and didn't have pure heart yet that's the reason he couldn't transformed into a ssj. By the time he spend on earth with bulma he started to feel something good then outer space he unlocked it because of pure heart with rage.
toriyama keeps saying goku isn't really a good guy, but goku was aways a good person, his desire to fight stronger oponents made him do some weird stuff but he was aways concerned in protecting his planet and his people
I think he was interpreting it as Goku is not a super hero but a guy who just does heroic things while pursuing his selfish desires to fight strong opponents.
It got real deep at the end there, I feel that man really inspiring to hear it from you. Personally I can relate with Gohan a lot growing up moreso than Vegeta or Goku.. not really naturally a fighter but over the last 2 years decided to commit to training for a powerlifting meet, surround myself with good people & find mentors. Something like Piccolo training Gohan for the Saiyans coming to earth but more voluntary
I've been waiting for this video for weeks ever since you've mentioned it on Twitter! It was super interesting, but the last couple of minutes really resonated with me. Thanks for the video, this was my favorite you've ever done!
Most people who "hate" him are angry manchilds that don't actually get his character, and just want to see someone cursing and murdering enemies left and right. He's not Human, he's not normal. Goku isn't perfect which should make him more appealing, but since this fanbase has already been divided by those who are butthurt & blame Goku for the fact that their favorite characters don't get more attention, its impossible for them to understand.
I was always intrigued by who made DBZ. It was masterly thought out. It invoked so many emotions in young people. The way Goku got power from being a hero of humanity and digging deep no matter what, especially against all odds. Very well thought out concept of character Goku! Unbelievably iconic! Never ever gonna be surpassed by any cartoon in the present and future.
Man, that was perfect! Such a great search and information. I make almost the same research that you did on the video, even about the Star Wars similarity. I used it for a college philosophy test, unhappy to me I lost the work because after that, my pc have many problems... anyway. It doesn't matter much now, because you make this amazing video! And more, in my analogy, I also mention others things beyond Goku's innocence. Vegeta's pride as warrior; Bulma's arrogance as a brilliant scientist and others. If you search you I'll see much more in any character of DB, DBZ and Super. Hope you make more videos about character 'hidden-philosophy', I love this type of content. Cheers! :D
Goku's 'good' nature seems to come down a lot concept of that he wants to fight strong guys, but that only extends to those that actually want to fight or can fight. He has no desire for conquest or domination over those weaker then himself. He see no benefit in harming those who choose not to fight nor does he look down on those that choose not to.
Igaf what anyone says I love ALL the characters in dragon ball, they all bring something different so thats why I can never understand why hate certain ones over others, it's just stupid
Great message in this video, something I've been thinking about for a while, what is a "pure" heart and why do we become jaded? I've always had a good grasp on this because I've honestly been told I'm an old soul (wise beyond my years, etc) but it's nice to have some discussion on it. Thanks for posting

Tatsuo Static yes he's stated that multiple times. Most recently in Super with his fight with Beerus and when he recutied andriod 17, and a had that one on one with Frieza.
Tatsuo Static yet his wife's grocery list to feed Goku for a week or 2 all the animal meats to sustain Goku, could feed a regular family for a year or more .
Because we all want to see innocent people and animals to suffer. That's not a unique quality of Goku, you could say the same about other protagonists.
Which is why I think the next level in his journey is to go full Plant-based Vegan 🌱 in his life! Think about it, in super Gokus first ever job is as a farmer for his family. But he doesn't have cows or chickens or shit like that. He grows vegetables and fruits and SELLS them to a local market! (I didn't make this up go back in look in super) Also, he even mentions his love for ALL creatures even animals on the planet during his talk with 17 before the tournament. Goku is becoming more and more awesome everyday! 🌏✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽✊🏼✊🏻✊️
This video was absolutely amazing Geekdom I expected nothing less. It was very insightful into eastern philosophies and the character development of Goku Vegeta and (to a lesser degree) Krillin probably your best made and researched video. Just show this video to people who say you only do DBS spoilers😅
yeah..he look into the deep of art itself not just making a random theories and not look at the surface alone. sadly the responses in the comment section really dissapointing. Pretty much describe what this fandom truly are
Ever Since The Black Goku Arc I Always Thought The Goku Black Character Was Toriyama Telling Us "This Is What Goku Would Be Like If He Didn't Hit His Head", Guess I Was Wrong
I've always been under the impression that people that are "pure of heart" can make mistakes or to bad things. Just as a "good person" can make mistakes.
In my opinion,Goku is a good person, hes a perfect guy, he even gave Frieza some Ki when hes was fighting Frieza, and gave him mercy, but the bad guys doesn't want his mercy and wanted to kill Goku instead, so thats why Goku has no choice but to kill them
ChronosLawliet123 He has a pure heart of evil. He was created only to destroy and cause pain. But yeah, the fact that he doesn't exactly realize that what he's doing is bad makes your point valid
ChronosLawliet123 Kid Buu was a Psychopathic sadist who took pleasure in causing pain to others. That also made him unpredictable and more dangerous. And he was pure evil because didn’t want to change.
Nah, I think it counts. Whenever people use the term Pure, the additional context is often left out. "Only a person pure of heart can ride this cloud." Pure "what"? Pure hatred? Pure stupidity? Pure ignorance? There wasn't any real stipulation.. It just said pure. Could I put my 100% juice on this cloud? Because it is purely made of juice?
Great insight. I totally reccommend Derek Padula's Dragon Ball book series. Dude explains the philosophy of the original Dragon Ball series. Every DB fan will love his books - they are fucking treasure!
So being pure of heart as well as innocent is the result of naivety with a bit of ignorance huh? (which obviously leads to being gullible as well as impressionable). Wouldn't Buu (good) and Zeno fit that bill too?.
This video was great Geekdom! My only ONE critic I have to say is that TECHNICALLY speaking Goku was actually sent to Earth to destroy it. That's who he naturally is but he bumped his head and that kinda made him the naive Saiyan we know and love today. So to revert back to natural state would mean he would want to destroy Earth.
Mike-Eze For the manga yeah, but the anime has it's own version of events. I say this because the manga doesn't have all those flashbacks to baby Goku that we see in the anime. Also, even if he recovered the memories and instincts he had before he hit his head that doesn't mean it would negate all the memories and experiences he's lived through till now, if anything it might make Goku a bit more like Vegeta in attitude, or Bardock, but it wouldn't make him an insta bad guy or something, you'd have to suppress his recent memories and leave the older ones in control for that.
Just wanted to say you are awesome and it has been a privilege to be able to talk to you and hear your opinions on my questions even if just in super chat.
Good video geekdom101. I liked how you referee vegeta to our own problems and struggles. We all have them. But it goes to show that as evil as the world is, there's always good my man.
I love it when you talk about the old Chinese concepts that influenced Dragon Ball. I see all the other youtubers focus only on the fighting and transformations (which is also great) and leave out all of these important elements of the series. Especially when a lot of them haven't even seen the original series, therefore not knowing how important it is to Z and Super. That's what makes you the best Dragon Ball youtuber.
The balance of being really pure/gentle and very powerful makes him awesome
Its humility thata makes Goku extra special, Goku is humble that's why he got as far as he got. Vegeta doesnt be as humble so he doesnt get as far.

Goku is becoming more and more awesome everyday! 🌏✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽✊🏼✊🏻✊️
Always look forward to these kind of topics when we don't have an episode of super. Thank u geekdom💯💯☺

Man you are good !! Bravo great video..
So to put it into basic perspective..... Goku knows da Wae!!
This is beautiful!
All the red ribbon army guards that were killed by kid Goku seeing this video would be like :(
Self defense. He only attacked because they attacked him
@@glenfordmyrie447 true but they still dead
This video was absolutely amazing Geekdom I expected nothing less. It was very insightful into eastern philosophies and the character development of Goku Vegeta and (to a lesser degree) Krillin probably your best made and researched video. Just show this video to people who say you only do DBS spoilers😅
Dude, this is one of the best DB videos I've seen! Congratz.
yeah..he look into the deep of art itself not just making a random theories and not look at the surface alone.
sadly the responses in the comment section really dissapointing. Pretty much describe what this fandom truly are
Ever Since The Black Goku Arc I Always Thought The Goku Black Character Was Toriyama Telling Us "This Is What Goku Would Be Like If He Didn't Hit His Head", Guess I Was Wrong
That's Turles.
@@Ash_Wen-li but that ain't cannon right?
I've always been under the impression that people that are "pure of heart" can make mistakes or to bad things. Just as a "good person" can make mistakes.
In my opinion,Goku is a good person, hes a perfect guy, he even gave Frieza some Ki when hes was fighting Frieza, and gave him mercy, but the bad guys doesn't want his mercy and wanted to kill Goku instead, so thats why Goku has no choice but to kill them
my heart is pure.. pure unadulterated badass...
If you think about it, Kid Buu also has a pure heart, because although he's a murderer, he doesn't know that what he's doing is bad
ChronosLawliet123 Ignorance and innocence are not the same.
ChronosLawliet123 He has a pure heart of evil. He was created only to destroy and cause pain. But yeah, the fact that he doesn't exactly realize that what he's doing is bad makes your point valid
Kid Buu is like a misguided child. Super Buu however is evil due to being the personification of evil merged with fat Buu.
ChronosLawliet123 Kid Buu was a Psychopathic sadist who took pleasure in causing pain to others. That also made him unpredictable and more dangerous. And he was pure evil because didn’t want to change.
Nah, I think it counts. Whenever people use the term Pure, the additional context is often left out. "Only a person pure of heart can ride this cloud." Pure "what"? Pure hatred? Pure stupidity? Pure ignorance? There wasn't any real stipulation.. It just said pure. Could I put my 100% juice on this cloud? Because it is purely made of juice?
Great insight. I totally reccommend Derek Padula's Dragon Ball book series. Dude explains the philosophy
of the original Dragon Ball series. Every DB fan will love his books - they are fucking treasure!
You channel is dope brother. I like how far you take your analyzations. Your content is deeper than just Dragon Ball. I fux withchu kiddddd 🙌🏾
So being pure of heart as well as innocent is the result of naivety with a bit of ignorance huh? (which obviously leads to being gullible as well as impressionable).
Wouldn't Buu (good) and Zeno fit that bill too?.
Andre Stewart more or less.
Yes but i did not want to go into Super TOO much.
So could good Buu in theory learn the Spirit Bomb?
johnathan 173 No that's Zeon
Actually, some pholosophers claim men are good, but become evil the most knowledge they get
Amazing video as always Geekdom. We all did bad things but im pretty sure i never hurt anyone
Man.. Never thought that this video would be so deep and motivational.. Nice.. I like it.. !!
Keep it up man !!
Bro your voice I’m sounds like a wwf interview, attitude era! And thank you for this video! God Bless you
The jedi knights are pure hearted and clean minded.......shows a picture of Anakin 🤔
This video was great Geekdom! My only ONE critic I have to say is that TECHNICALLY speaking Goku was actually sent to Earth to destroy it. That's who he naturally is but he bumped his head and that kinda made him the naive Saiyan we know and love today. So to revert back to natural state would mean he would want to destroy Earth.
Knivez that was rewritten
Knivez yeah it was rewritten so that he came to earth to be protected from Planet Vegeta's Explosion

For the manga yeah, but the anime has it's own version of events. I say this because the manga doesn't have all those flashbacks to baby Goku that we see in the anime.
Also, even if he recovered the memories and instincts he had before he hit his head that doesn't mean it would negate all the memories and experiences he's lived through till now, if anything it might make Goku a bit more like Vegeta in attitude, or Bardock, but it wouldn't make him an insta bad guy or something, you'd have to suppress his recent memories and leave the older ones in control for that.
Deity1 it applies to the anime too as of dragon ball super due to the appearance of Jaco and Tights and their familiarity toward each other.

...............CURSE YOU TORIYAMA!!!!!!!!
Hands down my favorite video in a good while man.
Just wanted to say you are awesome and it has been a privilege to be able to talk to you and hear your opinions on my questions even if just in super chat.
Actually goku has not commited murder. Self defense and murder are different
Don't let this distract you from the fact dragon ball heroes predicted the last three fighters would be jiren frieza and goku lol
Noel bueno YOOOOO😱😱😱😱😱😱😱
And gave a major spoiler. That blast from Jiren to Frieza is actually the opposite. The emperor will fack Greyboy.
Its not predict. They knew it all along XD and spoiled it.
Sn In Lol true meant spoiled
Noel bueno I been knew that lol
Damn, nice video geekdom. I like the advice at the end.
Good video geekdom101. I liked how you referee vegeta to our own problems and struggles. We all have them. But it goes to show that as evil as the world is, there's always good my man.
Is the theory of an uncarved log referring to children born as good or neutral?
but android 16 said it is not a sin to fight for what is right
Yes, finally. Again these philosophical points arise in Super and I think at a deeper level
Been following you for over a year and never commented, but I loved this video.
I'm pure, *pure evil.*
Rip dragon Ball super
@umar
To hfil with DBS :/
+umar must DBS is over yet still continues new series I rather say Rip Superman comic books.
These kind of videos are my favorites ❤
this is what i like about geekdom he covers EVERYTHING,dude doesnt skip a beat
Are you serious? Pure heart is basically no evil intention or malice towards anyone. 🤦 Why is this a discussion
He needs to make some money and super is ending so here you go
Saint Nick hahaha ya. Like I've never been dumb let down by geekdom but then I guess there's a first always
Stfu and don’t click on the vid then smh.
Saint Nick If he stops doing videos after super ends then you would also complain.
Why does he say dragon ball in “deaf”?
Or is it in death? I’ve never been entirely clear on that....
Alejandro Grandon depth*
Wow amazing video, one of the best videos on your channel in my opinion really loved it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was waiting for this video, curious to see what you had to say. I wasn't disappointed. I enjoyed this video.
I got a question why does anybody have a last name and I’m talkin bout goku and co.
Goku's last name is Son.
The son family
What about vegeta
And why do they say it first
I think Vegeta is San and future trunks calls goku goku son it might me a polite way of saying it or something
Are you sick geekdom, you sound sick
carson hartnett its been pretty damn cold in FL the past few days!
+SGTR Tell me about it...
Absolutely beautiful video! Great job on this one. Corey Wayne was someone who really made me think about what it meant to be alpha
the last 3 minutes of this video is the reason why i follow your channel, best coverage of dragon ball and positive vibes, keep it up
I love it when you talk about the old Chinese concepts that influenced Dragon Ball. I see all the other youtubers focus only on the fighting and transformations (which is also great) and leave out all of these important elements of the series. Especially when a lot of them haven't even seen the original series, therefore not knowing how important it is to Z and Super.
That's what makes you the best Dragon Ball youtuber.
This video was so needed 😩‼️
This was an amazing video. We need more like it
This Dragon Ball In Depth was completely necessary and I really needed that. Thank you, Geekdom101.
