If it weren’t for Mr. Gohan, I don’t know where Goku’s life would have gone differently.
Dragon Ball is the story of Goku – a monkey-tailed boy who grew up and became the greatest warrior in the world. Standing by his side are his beloved family members. The story begins when Grandpa Gohan accidentally found a monkey-tailed boy in the bamboo forest and decided to call him Goku.
The name Goku originates from Journey to the West, the name of Sun Wukong – Son Goku in Japanese kanji. Gohan is not Goku’s biological grandfather, but he gave him a name, adopted him, and raised him as a child. In fact, on planet Vegeta Goku has another name, Kakarot, derived from “carrot”, based on vegetables like the names of all Saiyans. Of course, when he came to Earth, Goku was too young to remember this name.
Thanks to Grandpa Gohan’s care and love, Goku grew up healthy and became a mischievous boy with a kind heart and pure soul. Below, let’s take a look at the moment Goku was brought home to be cared for by Grandpa Gohan! I’m sure many fans will feel very emotional!
