Son Goku


Son Goku (孫悟空, Son Gokū, addressed only as Goku in most English adaptations) is a fictional character from the Dragon Ball universe created by Akira Toriyama as the main protagonist for the media franchise.

He is based from Sun Wukong, a central character in Journey to the West but Toriyama changed some of his characteristics to be more original. Goku is introduced as an odd, monkey-tailed boy who practices martial arts and possesses superhuman strength. As the story unfolds, he is actually revealed to be from a fictional race of extraterrestrials called Saiyans, said to be the strongest warriors within the fictional universe.

Goku also made cameo appearances in Toriyama's self-parody series Neko Majin Z and also starred in all the films, specials and video games from the series.

  1. Goku is mine favorite character as i love to watch dragon ball z free on tv.Goku, he is faster than Superman, and can teleport. He also isn't hurt by mere human weapons, and he also can fly. Goku is much stronger though. He can hit someone through a planet.

Dragonball GT Anime Info

After the Buu saga ended in Dragonball Z, Toriyama wanted to end the series and start on another project. However Toei, the animation company wanted to continue the Dragonball series. Hence without Dragonball's main man, they developed a new series called Dragonball GT "Grand Tour." The story focuses on Goku, Pan and Trunks as they travel the galaxy in search of the universal black star Dragonballs. When the series started, it went back to a similar environment like Dragonball with humor and simplicity in mind. That proved a bit un-popular among fans. As such they went back to the old "beat or be beat" type of series fans so much adored. Number of episodes: 64 Date first aired in Japan: Feb 1996-Feb 1997 Main Characters: Goku, Pan, Trunks
