Goku, Vegeta, & Gohan's Strongest Forms Unite in Badass New Fanart (2024)

The world of Dragon Ball is host to countless heroes and villains who posses the incredible ability to push themselves beyond their limits and achieve power that shouldn’t realistically be possible, with Goku, Vegeta, and Gohan being three of the strongest Z-Warriors around. In a new piece of fanart, Ultra Instinct Goku, Ultra Ego Vegeta, and Beast Gohan finally come together, giving fans a stunning image that needs to be adapted into the Dragon Ball Super anime immediately.

Shared on social media via X by Kakeru (@DBSKAKERU1), this creator specializes in illustrating Dragon Ball fanart that embraces the art style of the late and great Akira Toriyama and puts the series’ best characters into unique situations that haven’t necessarily happened in official canon.

Creating images featuring Future Gohan and Trunks sharing a relaxing moment together, Goku standing side-by-side powered-up next to three of his most iconic forms, Goten and Trunks finally setting off on an adventure of their own, and more, Kakeru always has something creative up their sleeve, with this latest post being one of their best.

Ultra Instinct Goku, Ultra Ego Vegeta, and Beast Gohan Unite In Epic Fanart

With all three heroes getting what some would call their “ultimate” forms over the course of Dragon Ball Super’s ongoing story, Goku’s Ultra Instinct form — perfected during his battle with Jiren, Vegeta’s Ultra Ego form — attained when fighting Granolah, and Gohan’s Beast form — unlocked during his fight with Cell Max, are overpowered transformations that puts Goku, Vegeta, and Gohan on an even playing field. And while Goku and Gohan have more recently sparred together to match strengths, these forms, alongside Vegeta’s Ultra Ego, haven’t been used much outside their debuts, something Kakeru rectifies with this epic fanart piece.

Splitting the image to highlight each transformation individually, Kakeru starts by sketching Ultra Ego Vegeta, and gives him an incredibly manga-accurate design as he readies an attack while scoping out the competition he’s about to destroy. Giving Ultra Instinct Goku the spotlight next, Kakeru depicts Goku already powered up as he defiantly stares down viewers and adjusts his wristband, no doubt waiting for his next fight to start. Last but not least, Kakeru draws Beast Gohan smirking and tossing his glasses aside in a nod to the idea that when going Super Saiyan, Gohan’s eyesight clears up completely.

Dragon Ball's Most Powerful Fighters Get The Fanart Representation They Deserve

It’d be a treat to see Ultra Instinct Goku, Ultra Ego Vegeta, and Beast Gohan have the chance to train with each other, or better yet, combine forces to battle with a new kind of enemy stronger than any they’ve faced before, but until Dragon Ball Super’s manga concludes and the anime catches up to potentially give fans that, they’ll have to settle for impressive fanart like Kakeru’s (@DBSKAKERU1) to satiate their needs. Goku, Vegeta, and Gohan have reached yet another inexplicable level of power, but knowing Dragon Ball, these might not even be their final forms yet.

Dragon Ball was the initial starting animated series that followed the adventures of the young Son Goku as he sought after the Dragon Balls.
