a lot of us started out as his enemies
we were hostile and misguided but he
earned our respect and trust hey guys
it's ash here with watch mojo and this
is dragon ball the complete timeline of
goku so far
we'll never stop getting stronger yeah
of course we won't only a fool will put
limits on the strength of the saiyan
race
this is the journey that will never end
for this list we'll be catching you up
on everything goku through the years so
you're ready for the new film let us
know in the comments if you want to see
the timelines of any other dragon ball
characters
the planets of a warrior race had
outlived its welcome and so the galactic
overlord in charge of it decided to wipe
it from existence but before he could do
that a young couple known as bardock and
guinee placed their child on a ship that
would send him far far away
[Applause]
that violent child would be found by a
wise martial artist who cared for him
regardless of his ill temper until one
day an accident caused the boy to become
docile and caring sadly he held a secret
that would mean the end for said martial
artist
goku was a pretty normal kid well except
for the fact he had a tail and
apparently also never learned to look
both ways before crossing the street
that last one got him into trouble when
16 year old bulma accidentally ran him
over don't worry goku's got quite the
thick head well you're a laugh
so you thought you finished me off well
you're not going to get my fish that
easy you big monster
what are you doing bulmer explained she
is in a rush to gather seven
wish-granting orbs called get this
dragon balls after some bonding goku
decided to donate his four-star ball to
accompany her on her journey
all right but i still get to keep my
grandpa's ball you drive a hard bargain
but have it your way along the way they
met quirky comrades goku leaned the
iconic kamehameha and they faced off
against the ineffectively evil pilaf
gang
the villains eventually succeeded in
stealing the gathered dragon balls but
it inadvertently triggered goku's
transformation into an uncontrollable
great ape
[Applause]
[Music]
after thrashing pilaf and sending his
animalistic side back into hibernation
goku trained with the cunning krillin
under the tutelage of master roshi fine
then we'll warm up with a brief run
follow me
while the methods are a tad unorthodox
the two proteges progress enough to
nearly win the world martial arts
tournament if it weren't for a disguised
roshi joining the brackets goku may have
taken home the gold
but he didn't stew in defeat for long
and soon found himself putting up his
dukes again against the nefarious red
ribbon army despite throwing generals
psychics and mercenaries his way the
organization couldn't keep up with this
tailed youngster
in the end their goal to gather the
dragon balls only earned them a severely
bruised ego
[Music]
thanks to some magical shenanigans goku
reunited with his late grandfather i'm
so happy to see you grandpa i miss you
so much it gave him the motivation he
needed to enter another world martial
arts tournaments this time versus the
ferocious tien however things escalated
fast after his second tournament defeat
when demon king piccolo crashed the
party wished for eternal youth and tried
to enslave humanity goku was literally
down to his last leg when he managed to
finish off the fiend with a gnarly punch
through the guts
but unfortunately villainy runs in the
family after a few years king piccolo's
offspring stepped into the ring ready to
exact revenge another nail-biting
tournament finale fight epic kamehameha
and iconic final blow later goku picked
up his first victory and it seemed the
earth was finally safe the winner of the
23rd world martial arts tournament is
goku
but goku's retirement with a wife and
son didn't last years later goku's
long-lost brother raditz appeared and
completely uprooted the family tree
so we meet again at last
you've grown up ah
i recognize you though kakarot
apparently goku was an alien saiyan sent
to destroy if not save it kind of
explains the great ape thing raditz's
barbaric day job forced goku and piglow
to team up and even then it took goku's
life to clinch the win
[Music]
with two more evil saiyans on route to
earth goku trained with king kai in the
afterlife to master the spirit bomb and
kaioken techniques he was wished back
just in time to break some backs and go
over nine thousand but despite his
newfound strength his beam struggle with
saiyan prince vegeta was a bitter hard
for ordeal
[Music]
ever the optimist though goku spared
vegeta's life so they could fight again
someday don't forget krillin
i'm a singer
just like he is
but that rematch would have to wait the
first thing on the agenda was reviving
goku's fallen comrades which required a
vacation to the alien planet namek he
arrived fashionably late as always to
discover they weren't the only ones in
search of the dragon balls
while goku shoved around the almighty
ginyu force like they were the pilaf
gang space tyrant frieza was a different
story with krillin and vegeta six feet
deep and even the spirit bomb failing
goku's rage caused his hair to turn from
black to blonde
series first super saiyan transformation
finished off frieza but it left goku
unable to escape the exploding namek
[Music]
[Applause]
spoiler he wasn't really dead there's no
rest for the weary either since he
stepped foot back on earth to
immediately learn about the forthcoming
androids destined to destroy humanity
the earth and everything you know will
be gone for good
what's the deal are they aliens
no they're both androids created right
here on earth he trained his heart out
literally and ended up incapacitated due
to chest pain by the time he recovered
the parasitic cell had metamorphosed
into an even bigger threat it forced
goku and his son gohan into the
hyperbolic time chamber for some much
needed training but goku's eventual bout
with cell ended with him waving the
white flag
[Music]
and instead defaulting to his supposedly
stronger son that someone is you
son
it's epically backfired when cell tried
to self-destruct forcing goku to make
the ultimate sacrifice
goodbye my son
afterwards he decided to remain in the
afterlife since his presence attracted
too many threats gohan's so strong now i
have nothing left to teach him
but that doesn't mean i don't need you
you all better take notes of everything
that happens in your life because when
they're through i want to hear all about
them
until then goodbye
despite his best efforts he didn't stay
dead for long his day-long sabbatical
back to earth got majorly derailed when
babadi tried resurrecting the core of
all evil majin buu even worse vegeta
chose that moment to start their
long-awaited rematch which allowed buu
to become on par with even the new shiny
super saiyan 3. after both were revived
the two saiyans set aside their
differences and fused together to combat
the ever evolving boo
all right but while the result was
certainly powerful it was also
completely overconfident vegito failed
to finish bu off in a timely manner but
thankfully goku still had his trump card
the spirit bomb with the power of the
entire planet backing him up he
eradicated buu in one glorious strike
in the new era of peace goku kept
training
not that it didn't much good when the
god of destruction beerus crashed his
gym session
even after donning the new redhead super
saiyan god form beerus still handily won
their fights thankfully earthian cuisine
saved the planet from destruction
at least for now
it seems my lord has fallen asleep
[Music]
when frieza was resurrected his assault
on earth was far less forgiving but just
as goku's nemesis debuted a new golden
form he'd already evolved into super
saiyan blue
[Music]
now that goku had reached godly strength
his next real opponent came from an
entirely different dimension the sixth
universe's hit utilized a tricky time
skip technique but goku tried on both
red and blue auras to make the super
saiyan blue kaioken
with that much power even time itself
was no match for goku and after a show
like that the only person who could keep
up with him was himself
well kind of
in a different timeline the aptly named
goku black was proving to be less than a
humanitarian the evil doppelganger led
goku down a twisted mystery to the true
culprits a maniacal car named zamasu who
had a serious grudge against mortals
it took the full might of vegito blue to
counter him but goku would need to do
more than that to survive his next test

a simple multiversal tournament doesn't
sound all that dangerous but it came
with a major catch the losing universes
would be completely wiped out from
reality
let the tournament of power
begin
[Applause]
thankfully goku's never been one to back
down from a challenge in the face of
universe 11's unbeatable jiren goku
unlocked autonomous ultra instinct a
form that attacked and dodged on pure
intuition
but in the end it took the combined
efforts of goku frieza and android 17 to
secure the win
[Applause]
[Music]
after the tournament goku couldn't
access ultra instinct at will but he
didn't need it to show the rampaging
broly who's boss
[Music]
to be fair most of that was gochita's
doing though goku's long overdue for a
vacation so he's letting gohan take the
spotlight in the new superhero film but
if history is to be repeated we haven't
seen the end of his golden hair by long
shots
