PiccolosGirl Posted November 4, 2002 Share Posted November 4, 2002 Yeah, Goku can be pretty dumb sometimes. And I think he doesn't wish for eternal life because he doesn't want to live forever. -Why does he think about food all the time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manic Webb Posted November 4, 2002 Share Posted November 4, 2002 [b]-GIVE MERCY to "PURE" evil beings who only enjoy destruction!![/b] You mean like Piccolo and Vegeta? Those were good choices he made. [b]-Why did he give a senzu bean to CELL for!![/b] Um... ok, that was stupid. [b]-why Didnt HE kill BUU WEN HE COULD HAVE!![/b] Goku was already dead. He wasn't even supposed to be on Earth when Buu attacked. It wasn't his place to decide the fate of the Earth. [b]-WHY DOSN'T HE WISH ETERNAL LIFE!!! WHY![/b] It's like I always say "Immortality is all fun and games until the world comes to an end." Besides, he had already died before and he didn't seem to mind it too much. For all we know, he could be having a ball in the other world. :cool: What I want to know is why he likes to show-boat when the fate of the world is in the balance. If I were as strong as he is, I'd kill the bad guy as quickly as possible and go out with my friends to eat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCBaggee Posted November 4, 2002 Share Posted November 4, 2002 [color=red]Goku's not dumb, just uneducated and lacking some common sense. Ya gotta keep in mind he spent the first 12 years of his life living in the woods with some old guy! --J.C.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jinzouningen17 Posted November 4, 2002 Share Posted November 4, 2002 -GIVE MERCY to "PURE" evil beings who only enjoy destruction!! Like someone said, Vegeta, Piccolo, and Fat Buu were real good choices. -Why did he give a senzu bean to CELL for!! To give Gohan more of a challenge. -why Didnt HE kill BUU WEN HE COULD HAVE!! He says it in one of the episodes that it wasnt his job to do so. -WHY DOSN'T HE WISH ETERNAL LIFE!!! WHY! Hell, he pretty much lives eternally on earth anyway as you notice at the end of DBGT. :D Sure, he gave his life to Shenron, but yet he still comes back.

Kent Posted November 4, 2002 Share Posted November 4, 2002 actually hes not dumb or anything like that. Hes naive, and innocent. Pure of heart. He assumes the best in everyone. as for the cell thing, thats a fighting thing, he wanted cell to be at his best just like frieza was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WHY! and many many more i wish goku was smarter sometimes ..... [/B][/QUOTE] Actually most of the choices Goku has made were pretty intelligent if you think about it. [b]GIVE MERCY to "PURE" evil beings who only enjoy destruction...[/b] He gave mercy to Vegeta, and Piccolo, and Buu and look where they ended up. All good guys. In GT they wish buu back and he come's back as a good guy, as a little kid because Goku has seen buu's powers and thinks they can be put to good use. [b]Why did he give a sensu bean to cell?[/b] The answer is simple as someone said. To give Gohan more of a challenge, and by purposefully turning the odds in Cell's favor Goku helped Gohan surpass a Super Saiyajin. If Goku hadn't Gohan probably wouldn't have been pushed as hard as he was to ascend to Super Saiyajin Level 2. [b]Why didn't he kill Buu when he could have?[/b] Like Goku said something along these lines: "It's up to earth to create it's own hero. They have to learn to rely on themselves. No old hero from the history books is going to save it this time. Oh wait! Come to think of it I kinda' fall in that category now." [b]Why doesn't he wish eternal life?[/b] Because he wants to die. I mean think about it, all his loved ones will one day die. Wouldn't he rather be with them than live forever? There is a rhyme and reason to everything Goku does if you think about it long enough.

[/QUOTE] **SPOILER** Actually, its at the end of Z when they do that. But they dont wish Buu back to life. They wish that everybody would forget about how evil Buu was(this is a year after they kill Kid Buu. Until then, Fat Buu is in hiding.)and then he becomes an friend of justice. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan L Posted November 4, 2002 Share Posted November 4, 2002 two simple reasons: 1- as gokents said, he's naive and innocent, and expects the best from everyone 2- he's just not a selfish guy. At all.. Ever.. I wouldn't put it down to stupidity at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Imsirion Posted November 5, 2002 Share Posted November 5, 2002 [QUOTE][i]Originally posted by PiccolosGirl [/i] [B] -Why does he think about food all the time? [/B][/QUOTE] Its a Saiyan thing, their natural pigs. Remember before the Tournament, Goku,Gohan,and Vegeta ate like crazy. Then later, remember Trunks and Goten clearing the table that Popo set for them. Throughout the series,Goku is a mass pig, even in DB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/B][/QUOTE] sometimes i really wonder why he cares about that at all. if it were me in his place i would have done everything in my power to help my friends and family, and it really isn't their fault they can't rely on themselves. they were all doing the best they could to get as strong as they could. they shouldn't have to die just because goku doesn't thinks he shouldn't have to save them again.

Rain Posted November 6, 2002 Share Posted November 6, 2002 [color=blue][b]Why does he think about food all the time?[/b] Have you seen how much training he does? Imagine all the energy he uses up. So he needs a lot of energy and strength. Food=energy and strength. [b]Why did he give Cell a Sensu Bean?[/b] He said that when Gohan felt that he was trapped by Cell, his real power would come out. So Cell neded strangth to corner Gohan. [b]Why didn't he kill Buu when he could have?[/b] I can't answer that, haven't seen the Buu Saga yet. [b]Why doesn't he wish for eternal life?[/b] Like everyone else said, his loved ones will die some day and he wouldn't want to be without them. I don't think he's dumb; just naive and innocent. Plus his innocence is so cute;)[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vegeta rocker Posted November 6, 2002 Share Posted November 6, 2002 He isn't dumb, he just holds inside the hope that all creatures have the chance to be good. Why wish for eternal life when they can wish him back anyway, besides he said himself that half the monsters that attack earth are looking for him. He thinks about food because he is a saiya jin.

[/color] [/B][/QUOTE] I do :D hes not stupid though, he pretty much lived with Gohan and hunted and fished for his food, not to mention they drank nothing but water (correct me if thats wrong.) And he lived in the woods, away from technoligy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devon Posted November 14, 2002 Share Posted November 14, 2002 why does goku eat so much? well if you think about it anyone would. if you burn so many callories then you need vitamins and nutrients. and look at all he ate. it was all healthy food. like pasta and soup. they were good for him. look at people who are in the olympics eat pasta the night before thier competition. so theres my theory.

Mitch Posted November 14, 2002 Share Posted November 14, 2002 [color=red] Don't you understand the Goku is meant to be the complete opposite of Vegeta, thus it creates a kind of juxtaposition between them, which then creates irony and adds some fluidity to the show? It is just Goku's nature to be kind at times, and rather than fight, let whomever he is fighting surrender before he dies. So I do not think that Goku acting like Goku should act is 'dumb'. That is the way I'm certain Akira wanted Goku to be and act, he wanted Goku to be seen as the main hero, merciful and justful in all of his actions, not consumed by power, corruption, or hate.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It did take him all night to solve General Tao's puzzle, and on Dragonball there are about 200 examples of him being stupid. *coughs* And allowing Freiza to leave Namek before it was destroyed was not dumb, it was merciful. He would be no better than Freiza if he had killed him. -Shy[/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
