What are you waiting for? GO!

Hey! That's not fair!
~ Goten's main quote.
Come on, mom. It's okay. Why don't you let him go? It's gotta be important if dad want it this bad.
~ Goten when trying to convince Chi-Chi to let Goku go train with Whis.

Son Goten is a major character in the Dragon Ball franchise.

He is the youngest son of Son Goku and Chi-Chi, thus making him a Saiyan/Human hybrid. Due to his father's death at the hands of Cell, Goten was raised and trained by his mother and his elder brother Son Gohan for the first seven years of his life. He is the best friend of Trunks Brief, the Saiyan/Human hybrid son of Bulma Brief and Prince Vegeta.

Goten is voiced by Masako Nozawa in Japanese. In English, he is voiced by Kara Edwards as a child and by Robert McCollum as a teenager/adult. McCollum has also voiced Reiner Braun in Attack on Titan, Donquixote Rosinante in One Piece, Julius Novachrono in Black Clover, and Jellal Fernandes in Fairy Tail.

Appearance[]

He's first introduced in chapter 230 of the original Dragon Ball manga (Dragon Ball Z in the anime series), Goten strongly resembles his dad in appearance, with the same hair-style and similar clothing. He also strongly resembles his paternal grandfather in appearance. In chapter 324, the end of the series, Toriyama changes his appearance to avoid confusion with Goku and his paternal grandfather to include a shirt bearing his name, and a longer, shaggier hairstyle, while in Dragon Ball GT, Goten's hair was changed to a shorter, tall-spiky hairstyle resembling to Yamacha. Goten is trained by his older brother Gohan in preparation for the 25th World Martial Arts Tournament, which their father would be attending. During the training, Gohan discovered Goten could become a "Super Saiyan". He also possesses the Kamehameha, a technique that concentrates ki energy and is released into a powerful beam.

While he was a child, he wears an orange Gi similar to his father. He wore a dark blue inner shirt, a black belt and black shoes.

Personality[]

Similar to his father, Goten is optimistic and dimwitted. He wants to train and become a fighter like his father, but is forced into studying to become a scholar like his brother, Gohan, by his mother. However, as he gets older, he shows less of a taste in fighting and more interest in living a normal life, much like his brother.

Like his father and brother, he loves eating a lot. But he hates vegetables.

Relationships[]

  • Goku: Goku is Goten's father. He didn't meet his dad yet because he died during the Cell Games. After 7 years later, he meet Goku (who is paroled for a day) and hugged his father. Goku recognized Goten's strength similar to him. Goku played with Goten airplane just a bit. After Kid Buu's death, Goku can spend a family life time with his father. Goten wants to become a strong fighter like Goku. Although by the time of the Peaceful World saga, Goten shows less interest in fighting like his father, who still forces him to train.
  • Chi-Chi: Chi-Chi is Goten's mother. She trained Goten but caused him to become a Super Saiyan where Chi-Chi called him a monster (delinquent in the Kai version). After Kid Buu's death, Chi-Chi started taking more interest in Goten's education and forced him to study just like his brother, Gohan. Although, as Goten gets older, he doesn't show much interest in fighting like before, but Chi-Chi forces him to train, thinking he hasn't been getting enough exercise.
  • Gohan: Gohan is Goten's older brother. After his birth, Gohan giving Goten a piggyback ride. They trained for the World Martial Art Tournament.
  • Ox-King: Ox-King is Goten's maternal grandfather.
  • Videl: Videl is Goten's sister-in-law.
  • Mr. Satan: Mr. Satan is Goten's father in law.
  • Pan: Pan is Goten's niece.

Friends[]

  • Trunks: Trucks is Goten's best friend.
  • Valese: Valese is Goten's girlfriend (Dragon Ball GT only).

Trivia[]

  • Unlike his older brother, Goten wasn't pushed into studying. Although in Super, Chi Chi start taking a strict interest in his education.
  • In Broly: Second Coming, Goten states that he hates vegetables. However, given that the movie is non-canon, this may be untrue.
  • Masako Nozawa voices Goten in Japanese (who also voices his father, brother and grandfather in Japanese), while he is voiced by Kara Edwards (as a child) and Robert McCollum (as a teen) in the Funimation dub, while in the Ocean dub of Dragon Ball Z, he is voiced by Jillian Michaels as a kid and Brad Swaile as a teen and in the Blue Water dub of Dragon Ball GT, he is voiced by Scott Hendrickson. In the Canadian dub of Dragon Ball Z, he is voiced by the late Gabe Khouth.
  • Judging by his appearance and personality, Goten was originally going to be the new main protagonist n the Majin Buu saga to the rest of the franchise onwards, succeeding his father, but due to Goku's popularity, that idea had been scrapped.
  • In Future Trunks' timeline, Goten was never born because his father Goku died of a heart disease before his conception.
  • He and Trunks are the only two characters that weren't born with a saiyan tail.
  • Unlike Gohan, his age is notably happening in spurts like Goku. Despite being 13 in Super, Goten hasn't aged since he was 7. It wouldn't be until he was 15 in Super: Super Hero, that Goten had finally aged.
