Gohan's Best Dragon Ball Z Moment Returns in Unreasonably Epic New Art

Gohan going Super Saiyan 2 changed everything in Dragon Ball, with new fanart showing off his transformation as seen in the epic Bojack Unbound movie.

In the anime and manga world of Dragon Ball, Gohan is an incredibly powerful and skilled warrior who ascended to the level of Super Saiyan 2 well before anyone else could come close. Rarely seen using this form since, a new piece of fanart shows Gohan back in action using his Super Saiyan 2 transformation, reminding everyone why that moment is still remembered as one of the best in the series.

This piece of art was recently shared on social media via X by @DBSKAKERU1, a prolific Dragon Ball fanart creator whose skills as an illustrator are only matched by his clear passion for the franchise, as seen in his peculiar, and appreciated, choice os subjects.

Uploading exclusive images that feature characters and scenes not seen in Dragon Ball’s anime or manga, like Future Trunks burying Gohan and Beast Gohan taking on Perfect Cell Max, @DBSKAKERU1 also creates pieces that adhere directly to continuity, drawing Super Saiyan Gohan dressed in Piccolo’s clothing pre-Cell Games, Goku going Super Saiyan Blue, and more.

First reaching Super Saiyan 2 status during the Cell Games, this overpowered form allowed Gohan to essentially wipe the floor with Cell, a display of force that proved him to be one of the strongest characters in Dragon Ball lore. A form also featured in the Dragon Ball Z: Bojack Unbound movie (and possibly Dragon Ball Z: Broly – Second Coming, depending on the argument made), Gohan’s Super Saiyan 2 form is always a treat to see, especially since it took a while for Goku, Vegeta, and the rest of the Z-Warrior to reach the same level of power.

Adapting a Bojack Unbound moment that saw Gohan go Super Saiyan 2 to defeat Bojack, @DBSKAKERU1 does a great job showcasing the sheer power Gohan commands at this moment as he walks towards his enemy with dangerous determination. Like the movie, @DBSKAKERU1 draws Gohan wearing an orange and blue gi and adds in a healthy dose of dust and electricity pulsing out from Gohan’s feet and body, really making him feel as if he’s in motion instead of a static image. Colored with a worn aesthetic, @DBSKAKERU1 nails a design that fans often cite as their favorite look for the character.

Super Saiyan 2 Gohan Is Still One Of The Series’ Favorite Characters

Although Gohan is barely shown going Super Saiyan 2 after this epic movie moment, @DBSKAKERU1 captures his combative spirit like it were an official piece of Dragon Ball art, opening the door to more Super Saiyan 2 Gohan images that place the character in non-canon situations, something that @DBSKAKERU1 is well-known for creating. With Gohan recently getting a power-up in his silver-haired Beast form, his Super Saiyan 2 transformation may never be seen again, but at least fans have @DBSKAKERU1 to count on for impressive Dragon Ball fanart that can’t be seen anywhere else.
