Son Goku: Battle Shonen's Hero | Character Analysis

As it was Goku Day a few days ago (this video was meant to go out then grr) I wanted to start a new trend for the channel, where I go through every series and analyse the main character(s) in their respective right, and who better to start off with, than the pioneer of the genre; DragonBall's Son Goku!
I have always looked up to Goku as a character and have over the years heard many fans state how much of a bad/bland/boring character they think he is, whereas I beg to differ. Today I discuss and analyse Akira Toriyama's main character, why he is battle shonen's hero.
If you want to see more from me, don't forget to...maybe...I don't know...hit that like and subscribe button? With the notifications bell turned on? That'd be great.

One thing immediately: the editing is top notch. I love this. The chapters also make it easy to navigate around. All in all, a job well done!

[@gallant1929]

goku was that character who changed anime history for the better, One Piece, Bleach, Naruto: he is the reason the Big 3 was created and that’s why he is the best. good job on the video 🙏🏾✨

[@DiamondRocksIt]

1:26 THANK YOU. That always pissed me off when I first saw it lol.
Also, this is a super amazing video! I really liked your points about character development vs character progression because I never thought about it like that!

[@Ashton_Blaze]

The editing, humor, script, all top notch, well done!

[@Daisy_MooVR]

This is a really well made video~ I have loved dragon ball since I was young. I really enjoy your thought process and the clean editting of your video is very good. It is clear you put a lot of work into this and it is definitly catchy. Keep up the good work. ♡

So that thumbnail is not at all inspired by Totally Not Mark's character analysis of Goku?

[@spicycharizard1414]

Well, not really. I guess aspects of it is, yeah, but not entirely. I can see what you mean though, I'm letting you know that I didn't straight up copy his one, both our videos on Goku are different. Desigining a thumbnail for a video is a pretty hard task, one I'm still trying to hone. At some point in the future, I'll probably change the thumbnails for this and some of my older videos.
All in all, thanks for commenting on this and checking out the video!

@@spicycharizard1414 I used to make videos too, I get it! Thumbnails are hard. Finding your own style is hard. I'm not saying it's copied, but it's definitely very, very inspired. I'll check out the full video when I'm done studying and I'll tell you what I think.
