Dragon Ball Super is now making its way through Japan with its next major feature film, and the series creator behind it all opened up about why Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero does not have Goku and Vegeta featured as the major stars!
What is the Red Ribbon Army?
The Red Ribbon, also known as the Red Ribbon Army, are the central villains of Dragon ball super: Super Hero. However, they appeared from the first parts of the popular manga Dragon ball Z.
The Red Ribbon Army made its first appearance back in the original Dragon Ball anime and manga. The one where Goku was still just an energetic child with absurd physical prowess. At the time, Goku was on a mission to find the four-star dragon ball. The one given to him by his late grandfather.
The Red Ribbon Army was led by a man called Commander Red. Likewise, all of his top executives also used various colors as their codenames. The White Corps that focuses on arctic warfare was led by General White, the aerial division called the Silver Corps was led by Colonel Silver, there’s also the naval division of the Blue Corps that was helmed by General Blue, and many others.
For the most part, Goku can beat everybody from the Red Ribbon Army, but the one that gave him the most trouble was General Blue, a twisted man who initiated the aforementioned hostage situation.
However, once Goku managed to defeat General Blue, he stormed the Red Ribbon Army’s headquarters and single-handedly took down the entire organization. Goku destroyed so much stuff to the point that the organization basically had nothing left but the clothes on their body.
Why Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero Isn't About Goku, Vegeta
Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero producer Akio Iyoku recently confirmed what the second trailer already hinted at, which is that the new movie is a story about Gohan and Piccolo – not Goku [via ComicBook.com]. In the context of where the anime was headed with their story, the franchise taking this route at some point or another makes plenty of sense. Dragon Ball Z’s Cell Saga positioned Gohan to take over the role of Earth’s greatest protector when he officially surpassed Goku and saved the planet from Perfect Cell. Since then, Gohan took a disappointing turn by slacking off on his training. However, Dragon Ball Super’s Tournament of Power story put Gohan on the right track to regaining his former glory. It looks like the payoff for that is finally about to happen in Super Hero.
What is Gohan’s new form? How strong is Final Gohan?
Before we begin with our text there is one thing you need to know – at this moment, we know very little about Final Gohan (Gohan Beast) ; we actually only know those facts that we could deduce from the movie leaks and the written synopsis for the movie, as it surfaced online. No other details are known at this moment and we’re actually bringing you everything we know about this form at this moment. Final Gohan is an exceptionally powerful transformation used by Gohan that is in realityan evolved and limit-broken version of the Potential Unleashed form.
During the transformation, Gohan’s eyes flicker and turn red before fully manifesting the form, in which his eyes become fully red with black pupils. In this state, his hair turns light gray (hence the unofficial name, Gohan Blanco), and becomes longer to match his old Super Saiyan 2 hairstyle, with a single large bang on the forehead.
His aura, interestingly, maintains its bluish-white glow, but he also gains a reddish-magenta inner aura shrouded by magenta lightning. Final Gohan is a direct evolution from Ultimate Gohan and appears to be Gohan’s strongest transformation to date; we’ll see whether these transformations are going to keep changing.
In the Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero movie, Gohan reached this form after witnessing a heavily-injured Piccolo during the final fight with the monstrous Cell Max and transforming into his Final form out of pure rage, much like he did during his first Super Saiyan 2 transformation against the original Cell. In this form, he easily caught and brutally reacted to a punch from Cell Max and was able to completely annihilate him in the end with a Special Beam Cannon, but only afrer Orange Piccolo helped and intervened.
What is Piccolo’s new form? How strong is Orange Piccolo?
Just like we’ve said about Final Gohan, this moment, we know very little about Orange Piccolo; we actually only know those things that we could deduce from the movie leaks and the movie’s general synopsis, but neither revealed too much about this newly-introduced form.
Orange Piccolo is the most powerful transformation of Piccolo and an evolution of his Potential Unleashed form. In this form, Piccolo becomes taller and bulkier, his eyes become red, his skin becomes orange and he keeps the lack of lines on his arms from his Potential Unleashed state.
Orange Piccolo is a direct evolution from Piccolo’s Potential Unleashed state and is Piccolo’s most powerful transformation to date. In the Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero movie, Piccolo managed to reach both his Potential Unleashed form and this higher level form thanks to a wish from Shenron to unlock his full potential.
He uses it to easily defeat Gamma 2 and then goes on to battle Cell Max, being the only one able to put up a fight against the powerful creature. Finally, he restrains Cell Max to make it easier for Gohan to pierce his weak point and defeat the monstrosity.
