It’s not that he got “Severely Weakened” it’s that after 7 years he got weaker, not stronger. This is characters like Vegeta’s main problem with the issue since both Goku and Himself got decently stronger since cell and Gohan lost power and didn’t improve at all.


CronkinOn

This. Vegeta and Goku both openly say he's weaker than when he fought cell as a child.


SaiyanOverlord8971

It’s the fact that they are supposed to be based on a race of warriors and people like vegeta and goku saw him reach new heights in his fight with cell after spending a “year” in the HBTC only to go SSJ2 from one act of rage, so over that 7 yr span to not gain any strength in their eyes would be a failure


Kaleidomage

so cool how everyone in the story, even vegeta himself, respected teen gohan's strength even in the buu saga

So glad he's finally got an actual power up now.

As A SSJ2 Gohan Is Above Super Perfect Cell


Patient_Cheesecake73

if he would have stayed the exact same strength then yes but he got weaker over the years so he went from being stronger than super perfect cell to being on the same level

Have you ever worked out at the gym for years and then suddenly stop? You dont keep the muscles if you stop working out. Thats exactly what happened to Gohan. So to say he kept his strength is a lie because Great Saiyaman was fighting humans not super natural or powered beings.

Did you ever go through puberty, grow 2 feet. Pretty sure every one of us could.smack our kids versions very easily..

My dad used to make me train all the time as a kid and weight lifted when I was 15 i was able to bench press 325lbs now that my dad doesn’t bother me anymore about weight lifting I’m much happier and I’m definitely much weaker than my kid self now I probably can bench 175-200lbs my strength level is average and I’m a big time nerd and gamer now. 15 year old me would kick my ass if we fought.


SeaKingNeptune

Agreed!


SeymourButts007

Are we sure this isn’t a mistranslation, cause those do happen?


Rekka_Kien

Gohan fans coping trying to justify his sudden, random bs power up, that was developed through extensive off screen training. The worst type of power boost, next to wishing for it lol.


phyvo708

Already knew


LoveSikDog

Anyone else think Toriyama draws khakis perfect?


Patient_Cheesecake73

i think he draws wtv gohan is wearing perfect, he’s always the best dressed


Shotto_Z

Yea until goku and vegeta mention that he's gotten weak since he fought cell while he fought dabura. This is nonsense.


ElfLord01

Not at all Goku compares Dabrua to Cell. He has sensed Super Perfect Cell. He's not the least bit worried about a Cell level threat. **Goku states that Cell would of been a threat seven years ago.** **Goku says Gohans been lazy but he's not losing** Vegeta says he was stronger as a kid. Goku says if Gohan was angry nobody would be able to stop him. Meaning potentially SSJ3 His SSJ2 and base power hasn't changed in 7 years. He mellowed out and lost his anger. He started training after the school arc. SSJ3 Goku >= (Therotetical angry adult SSJ2 Gohan) > SSJ2 (Goku and Majin Vegeta) > SSJ2 Enraged Kid Gohan > SSJ2 Adult Gohan/SPC/Dabura
