Wow, new record. I made this video in just four hours =) No problems or anything. The video practically made itself.
Now some videos I think about doing for years and years, but this one just popped up the other day after listening to Unmei No Hi Tamashii Tai Tamashii (The Day of Destiny - Spirit Vs.Spirit) for the bajillionth time. For those that aren't familiar with the original version of the series, that's the song that plays when Gohan lets loose his full power upon seeing Cell murder Artificial Human 16 at the end of the Cell Saga. And being that it ushers in Gohan's iconic moment of triumph, I figured "You know...this would be a good track to make a video about him with".
Now those that know me know I don't care about Z all that much. Real boring compared to the original, can't stand Frieza, blah blah blah. BUT, that doesn't mean every single little thing about that era is bad. There's still interesting bits here and there, and Gohan I always found to be one of them as he's what I'd consider one of the most developed and relatable characters in the franchise. Following in the footsteps of his dad, you get to see him grow up as the series progresses and feel a certain sense of gratitude as you see the buildup and ultimate payoff at the end of the Cell Saga. I would almost say that Gohan is a more admirable hero than even Goku in some instances with his slightly more caring nature.
So yeah...just decided to make this video about him ^_^
The song is done by Hironobu Kageyama.
