While Dragon Ball gave the spotlight on the growth of Goku and Vegeta with all other characters following the alley for their character development phase and power-level advancement, Gohan has also kept himself to be just as capable as the focused character and something that was brought out in one Dragon Ball spin-off story. It ultimately proves that Gohan is being completely wasted in Dragon Ball Super.

For information, he is the oldest son of Goku, and during Dragon Ball Z’s ‘Cell Games Saga’, he came into self-powerful support to the Z Fighters’ team as it was on the path that Gohan achieved Super Saiyan for the very first moment.
Why Dragon Ball Super’s Final Gohan Form Can’t be Compared to Super Saiyan 4?
One of the best examples is Gohan joining the other Z Fighters in a fight which was during Dragon Ball Super’s Tournament of Power, he demonstrated that he was officially done being sure of the inherent power of his Saiyan origin to unleash his new forms. In Super Dragon Ball Heroes: Dark Demon Realm Mission! Chapter 13, Heroes proves that Gohan can achieve Super Saiyan 4 after regulating his Great Ape form and restraining its power. He has never handled that amount of energy. As we know, Super Saiyan 4 is the rawest form of Saiyan power as it originated from their most animalistic transformation.

Super Saiyan 4 might not be canon, but it’s still one of the most interesting transformations. Despite being called Super Saiyan 4, the form isn’t connected to the other forms of Super Saiyan outside of the first one. Instead, the transformation is based on using the power of the Great Ape, particularly the Golden Great Ape form that only a Super Saiyan can achieve.
If we talk about the Final Gohan, it’s an evolved form of his potential unleashed state and is presently his biggest transformation. Now, if we compare this with the Super Saiyan 4 state, it can be only achieved by absorbing an extreme amount of Saiyan Power. It likewise equally enhances the senses, allowing a user to react to practically any threat. The user will also be able to absorb enemy energy attacks, nullifying their damage. This state is symbolized by a radiating red glow from the user’s entire body.
This transformation’s look is hard to forget because there’s a lot about this power boost that grabs the attention. Super Saiyan 4 is an upgrade in every aspect from its ancestor since it’s not only powerful, but it doesn’t strain the user’s body or come with an accompanying time limit.
Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero will arrive in the United States on August 19, that is two months after the Japanese release date, June 11, 2022.
