hey guys it's ash here with watchmojo
and these are the top 10 iconic goku
moments
that's right for this list we're going
to be looking at the spiky head saiyan's
most impressive your memorable feats
from the og dragon ball all the way to
super and everything in between did we
miss any spirit bomb sized moments let
us know in those comments and as always
if there's a dragon ball list you want
to see go to my twitter ashjaebow and
let me know
number 10 goku's grand entrance dragon
ball z say what you will about this
eager z warrior but he sure knows how to
make an entrance welcome kakarot
nice of you to join us with most of his
friends already six feet deep and gohan
about to join them goku finally arrives
on the scene ready to break some backs
this of course wouldn't be the last time
he was fashionably late but scenes like
this prove why it's so effective
[Music]
after seeing earth's warriors powerless
against napa's rage there's nothing
cooler than goku completely ignoring him
as he casually gives his friends senzu
beans we'd say this speaks volumes about
how strong he's gotten but we think
vegeta has that covered it's over nine
thousand
nine thousand
there's no way that can be right number
nine cut into ribbons
dragon ball with all due respect to the
pilaf gang it was refreshing to see the
young saiyan square off against some
genuinely menacing villains not that
their license to kill did them very good
it's endlessly entertaining to see even
trained assassins like general blue and
miss neritau unable to keep up with goku
[Music]
my eyes but upping the ante even further
the best part of this whole arc is
seeing him slice through the entire red
ribbon base like it was a nimbus cloud
just try not to dwell on how high his
body count is in this arc
number eight a family matter dragon ball
super it was clear from the opening
moments of the arc that zamasu and goku
black weren't exactly humanitarians but
it's still soul-shattering to see them
relish in what they did to goku's family
and what about chichi
the devastating sequence pushes goku to
power up with a primal scream that we
haven't heard since the freezer days
[Applause]
it's not often you see the goofy saiyan
so angry which is what makes this
bombastic display of strength all the
more satisfying the godly duo clearly
didn't learn that you really don't want
to mess with goku's family and now it's
time
number seven unseating the king
dragon ball there have been a litany of
legendary finishing blows across the
franchise but none strike as gruesome
accord as this i still have one arm left
that i can use
what
with the rest of earth's defenders
unable to match demon king piccolo goku
is down to his last leg literally when
he musters his remaining strength for a
final strike
it's a downright gorgeous sequence that
marks the end of one of the franchise's
most imposing villains
yet again goku reminds us the earth is
safe in his tail after all water the
hero can boast they punched a hole
through a demon king
[Music]
number six battle of super saiyan gods
dragon ball z battle of gods
rushing head first into a brawl even if
he has no chance of winning it's about
as classic goku as you can get
while the shiny new super saiyan god
transformation is capable of matching
beerus goku can't maintain it long
enough to secure the win but something
as silly as power scaling has never
stopped goku before
[Music]
even as he's nearly crushed him alive he
delivers a grand declaration and powers
up once again through sheer force of
will even his mere super saiyan form now
gives the god of destruction some
trouble but that's goku for you there's
no limit he can't blast a kamehameha
through
[Applause]
number five universal spirit bombshell
dragon ball gt remember when we
mentioned this saiyan's love of a
dramatic entrance well how about being
presumed dead with the earth moments
away from utter annihilation when he
rises from below with a spirit bomb
powered by the whole universe
[Music]
what
omega shenron represents all of goku's
mistakes so it's only fitting the
villain is defeated with a combined
effort of every ally goku ever assembled
across the series
[Music]
it's as epic as you'd expect from a
dragon ball climax but in a greater
sense it's a summation of everything
goku has accomplished
[Music]
number four there's a crowd dragon ball
z
tired of the golden hair yet don't worry
goku has you covered by the time buu was
turning its population into chocolates
it seemed every saiyan in the cast was a
full-time battle blonde you're going to
love this
trust me what you're seeing now is my
normal state
[Music]
this is a super saiyan then goku decided
to up the ante with super saiyan 3
debuting a transformation that showed
there truly is no such thing as too few
hair spikes is to go
even further beyond the badass new look
and epic power-up literally shake the
earth cementing this reveal among these
best moments it's just a shame it was
later pushed to the wayside
[Music]
number three golden blue then silver all
over dragon ball super goku's had a lot
of flashy transformations over the years
but few have felt this monumental
the tournament of power had already
pushed goku beyond his limits twice
before which made it all the more
unexpected when he mastered ultra
instinct in the final minutes of the
battle royale
the image of every god of destruction
standing in respect to our hero is an
unforgettable sight alone and that's
before goku starts giving jiren the
whooping of the century it goes down as
one of the franchise's hypest moments
look at that brilliant form
there can be no doubt
this is the true power
complete in all its majesty
this is autonomous
ultra instinct
number two the final transmission dragon
ball z he's a bit simple minded and
makes some questionable decisions
regarding villains and senzu beans but
you've gotta give goku some major dad
credit here he always puts others first
with cell about to blow up the earth
goku delivers an emotional farewell
before teleporting himself and the
ultimate creation to king kai's planet
goodbye my son
it's a selfless act that could easily
have served as goku's canonical ending
but it holds all the more impact with
the context that he chooses to remain in
otherworld after this even after his
son's overconfidence nearly cost the
fight goku's faith in gohan to defend
the planet in his place is the exact
kind of optimism that only a sane father
has

number one the gold standard dragon ball
z is there ever any doubts
this is a defining scene for not just
goku or dragon ball but for classic
anime as a whole for a hundred episodes
we'd heard about the legendary super
saiyan but nothing could have prepared
us for goku's haunting powerhouse scream
that leads to him unlocking the mythical
transformation
sure we've gotten plenty of flashy
techniques and new forms since but
nothing can top the first time we've
seen this kind of visual overhaul it set
a new benchmark for the franchise one
that has yet to be duplicated
