Top 20 Times Goku Went Beast Mode
Welcome to WatchMojo, and today we are counting down our picks for the Top 10 Times Goku Went Beast Mode. For this list, we’re going to be looking over the times where our favourite Saiyan went all out and utterly wrecked his opponents! Did we miss a key rampage? Kaio-ken over to the comments and let us know!
#10: Lord Slug Gets Salted
“Dragon Ball Z: Lord Slug” (1991) Goku has some experience when it comes to killing off Namekians, and this giant, drugged up prune certainly wasn’t going to break that record. After being pushed to his limits, Goku finds himself consumed with a bout of righteous rage, his body glowing a distinct golden aura. This form…is not a Super Saiyan. In fact, we have no idea what it is, other than a non-canon pseudo-super form. Still, it gets the job done, since even when Slug bulked up, glittering Goku was able to break his alien body to pieces!
#9: Dragon on Ice
Top 10 Times Dragon Ball Invaded Other Media
“Dragon Ball GT” (1996-97) Say what you will about the overall underwhelming nature of this misguided sequel, it did have a few bright spots, and one of them was undoubtedly when Super Saiyan 4 Goku got to smash apart one of Shenron’s evil duplicates. Despite being blinded, Goku is still able to win the day against Eis Shenron by punching a hole through his gut. If that wasn’t excessive enough, he really amps up the overkill by following up with a full-on Dragon Fist! Hard to believe such an OP combination got wasted on such a forgettable villain.
#8: Another Android Bites the Dust
Top 10 Times Demon Slayer Characters Went Beast Mode
“Dragon Ball Z: Super Android 13!” (1992) By himself, Android 13 was just your average mass murdering machine with a trucker hat, but after chowing down on his feeble brethren and getting himself upgraded with a blue sheen, he became quite the handful. Enough to even beat the blonde out of Goku, Vegeta and Future Trunks all at once. Luckily, it’s nothing a quick Spirit Bomb absorption can’t fix. Now imbued with the power of his strongest technique, it didn’t take much for Goku to tear through the waste of scrap with a single blow.
#7: Red Ribbon Rampage
Top 20 Times Anime Characters Went Beast Mode
“Dragon Ball” (1986-89) This lot should be thankful they only had to deal with Kid Goku. If they had pissed him off during his adult years, they would have been wiped out in half the time. Of course, even as a chubby sprout of a Saiyan, Goku was still strong enough to storm an entire base and take down each corrupt soldier that came his way. Even when facing down their military and robotic prowess, Goku’s innate strength, power pole and Kamehameha proved more than the Red Ribbon Army could handle.
#6: Kefla Meets Kamehameha
“Dragon Ball Super” (2015-18) Even when partially tapping into the limitless potential of Ultra Instinct, Goku proved it was more than enough to overcome what would otherwise be impossible odds. With their fusion surpassing all of Goku’s previous forms, Caulifa and Kale appeared to be on one hell of a winning streak, continually levelling up as the Tournament of Power progressed. Alas, that all came to an unceremonious close when Goku parkoured over their own ki blast to deliver a Kamehameha straight to the face. Guess they’ve still got room for improvement.
#5: Cooler’s Bad Trip
“Dragon Ball Z: Cooler's Revenge” (1991) Granted, he may have a slicker design when it comes to his final form, but unlike his brother, Cooler was granted no mercy and certainly won’t be returning for any future instalments of the DB-verse. Even with his transformation, Frieza’s sibling hopelessly floundered against Goku’s Super Saiyan form, wherein he falls prey to what would sadly go on to become a lazy trope among DB flicks – getting blasted into the sun. Still, as far as trendsetters go, watching Goku go all out to extinguish Frieza’s immediate family was pretty sweet!
#4: Sticking it to a God
“Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods” (2013) While Goku may not have technically defeated the God of Destruction outright in this galactic brawl, it was one of the best demonstrations of his capabilities when pushed to his limit. Now with the power of the Super Saiyan God at his disposal, Goku was able to finally go toe to toe with Beerus, who by this point had decided to bring an end to the Earth. The whole thing may have been brought to a stalemate, but watching Goku howl in determination and cancel out that supernova made for some epic viewing!
#3: Goku Snaps
Top 10 Things Dragon Ball Wants You to Forget About Goku
“Dragon Ball Super” (2015-18) He’s been challenged, he’s been put under pressure, but rare is it do you see Goku give into bloodlust. After Goku Black divulges the revelation that in his timeline, not only did he take Goku’s body for his own, but also slaughtered his wife and son, the original Saiyan loses it. Consumed with anger, he immediately turns the table on Goku Black and Zamasu, blasting and pummelling them with every intention of ending them. This is what happens when you mess with a Saiyan’s family.
#2: Frieza’s End
“Dragon Ball Z” (1989-96) Arguably the most iconic battle across the entire Dragon Ball franchise, and the one that gave birth to the golden-haired warrior we all know and love. With many of his comrades finished off by the space tyrant, Goku’s anger unlocks the legendary form of Super Saiyan. Needless to say, he was not a happy camper. Now on par with Frieza’s final form, Goku’s new look proved to be strong enough to knock the space-Jesus out of his nemesis. The threat of a dying planet and one last act of mercy may have done nothing to sway Frieza from his ruinous ways, but Goku’s final attack sure got him to see the light.
#1: Ultra Instinct
“Dragon Ball Super” (2015-18) His ascension to Super Saiyan may be his most iconic moment, but Goku’s biggest flex is without question the time when he mastered the form only reserved for the strongest beings in the multiverse…and used it to beat the shit out of Jiren. With the Tournament of Power coming to a close, it fell to Goku to ensure Universe 7’s survival, with his only obstacle being the absurdly powerful alien. When Jiren is backed to a corner, he attempts to kill Goku’s friends, a decision he soon regrets as Goku goes to town with him!
