Dragon Ball Super has never really treated Goku like a traditional hero when compared to some of Shueisha’s other releases, and the newest chapter of the series has proved why he’s not seen that way with the reveal of how the world sees Goku after everything he’s done.

Dragon Ball is home to some of the most iconic transformations in history, but some of its best aren't even canon.

Dragon Ball Daima is currently streaming on Crunchyroll .
