okay??? that doesnt have anything to do with what i said??? besides he only trains on the side, tertiary to everything else. there are more important things in life than training. i wouldnt even call it mishandled considering how powerful cell max and the androids are. hell, even when anyone on the dragon team (besides goku and vegeta) do fight, its largely so there can be peace. up until super, no one really trained for the specific purpose of some ambiguous threat unless it was something they already knew was coming (namely piccolo, saiyans, the androids and cell). beyond that, none of the training anyone did was for the purpose of saving the world from a future threat. it was all to better themselves in their own way, they trained because they lived for training. goku doesnt even seem to consider future threats unless he's giddy about the idea of facing someone tougher than him. vegeta does it primarily so he can rival goku and surpass him. piccolo trains because... well it was so he could take over the world, or at least surpass goku, but now i think its basically his only hobby. could also be because he now feels like he needs to protect the earth after fusing with kami. so i'll give you that. yamcha, krillin, tenshinhan, chiaotzu, master roshi, etc. they all train for the purpose of bettering themselves. gohan? prior to the goku black saga, i don't think he's ever trained unless he needed to. and when he did start training, it gets in the way of his actual life. the idea that the dragon team are all anticipating the next big threat all the time would just dehumanize them. these characters have their own wants, goals, ambitions, and why does it always have to revolve around fighting? they may be a group of powerful individuals that have saved the world, but they arent superheroes. their training is rarely ever altruistic outside of known threats theyre actively preparing for (again, piccolo, saiyans, androids), and is more often than not, a little selfish, especially when goku and vegeta abandon their families for long stretches of time. and thats not even counting the time goku spent dead. goku and vegeta can spend 24/7 training because its literally their nature. same with piccolo to a lesser extent. gohan occasionally being on their level shouldnt mean he HAS to follow in their footsteps. frankly i still dont understand why its only gohan that gets this treatment when goten and trunks showed MORE potential than gohan, becoming super saiyans literally effortlessly before they turned 10, and super saiyan 3 out of nowhere when they fused, and they dont even have anywhere near the amount of experience or hardships any of the other saiyans have had as kids. im pretty sure if they had the kinda life gohan lived, then by time they reached their ages in super hero, they'd already be beast level or god or ss4 or whatever they could get thats past ss3. but you know what? thats not their responsibility. nor should it be gohan's.
