One of the most disliked scenes in all of Dragon Ball is when Goku gives Cell a senzu bean before his fight with Gohan. While I find people’s hatred for the scene more a misunderstanding of what’s actually going on rather than valid criticism - I think it does leave the question open as to what would have happened if he didn’t. So for today’s Dragon Ball what if, we enter the Cell Saga of Dragon Ball Z and ask the question - What If Goku DIDN’T Give Cell a Senzu Bean?
Our story begins at the moment Son Goku decides to resign from his fight with Cell. Everyone is in shock that Goku would resign from this fight and they’re only more astonished when Goku announces Gohan as the next fighter to face Cell. Goku explains his plan to everyone and despite protests from Piccolo - Gohan’s words make it clear he might be far stronger than anyone imagined, even if he isn’t confident in that fact himself.

    takes senzu from krillin Goku: “HEY CELL” Cell “Yeah?” Goku: eats it fuck off.
  • @robotmafia000
    Gohan's biggest mistake is not realizing that he was fighting to SAVE the damn planet because his father wasn't strong enough to do it
  • "What? I'm only playing fair. He's tired. He's got post-Goku exhaustion." - Goku

    Android 16: By the way, I didn’t die in this what if.
  • @ocyrussteadt232
    In an alternate universe it would be "What if goku gave cell a senzu bean" and the story would be exactly the same as the story in our universe
  • @ChiChiLand299
    The biggest reason why Chichi was okay with training later down the road was because of Goku's death humbling her. Losing him opened her eyes. so if Goku never died there's always that possibility she may never have that character growth.

    But then we wouldn't hear: "OH THAT'S THAT GOOD SHIT"

    To me the only thing Goku really screwed up was not being straight up with Gohan during their training about the game plan. I feel like the main reason Gohan struggled with his confidence was because it was such a shock to him to consider having to defeat someone his father couldn't. Goku should have said, "Look, your ceiling is higher because of the special power you have. I'm going to train you to use that and that's how we're going to beat Cell." With a years time Gohan could have been WAY more mentally prepared than he was.
  • Cell was confident he could beat everyone on that cliffside even while exhausted and even after seeing Gohan OHKO the Cell Jrs he wasn't worried at all, implying he could do the same.
  • People don't realize what he was doing.....he was helping Cell to have a chance to get Gohan's full potential out of him.
  • What I would have changed is Goku actually dying and Gohan keeping up with his training, and the Buu saga going relatively normally except with Gohan being a lot stronger.

    Alternative title... "What if Goku didn't wanted to give Cell a punching bag"

    Finally someone who had understand that a SSJ don´t mean that different SSJ´s have the same amount of power at the same SSJ level. One SSJ can have much different amount of KI from another SSj. Well done, bro, well done :))
  • CARTHU THANK YOU FOR DOING IT, my heart just came out of my body, I remember suggesting it for you at the beginning of the year, and now I'm so excited
  • @Itsnobigdeal420
    You should do what if vegeta didn’t let cell become perfect

  • Goku : Eats the Senzu Bean Goku (in heart) : Senzu Beans are gonna heal ya
  • Gotta say, it's actually really refreshing hearing a perspective that actually explains why Goku had done what he had done with Cell at the tournament, instead of just regularly bashing him for his actions. Your videos are amazing man, keep up the good work.
