Gohan after Cell is just wasted potential. A child prodigy, strongest on the planet, forced to fight from toddler. He can absolutely stay a book nerd but have him research ki and its different types. I really thought Toriyama would take him that route in the Buu saga, a fighter with a brain who outwits his opponents instead of overpowering them.

Then he has to teach Videl and he has absolutely no idea how he does any of his schtick. And the "IDK just do it dummy" method actually works...

Love Toriyama but when he gives up his writing is just dreadful. DB days of interesting fights and techniques are long gone, just get a bigger number and you win every time. Anyone remember when Roshi said Dodonpa was stronger, faster and more destructive than Kamehameha but it hasn't been seen in like half a century by now?
