Times When Goku Died in Dragon Ball

The story is around a young boy who goes on an adventurous journey to collect all the seven mystical dragon balls. Goku obviously faced a lot of unforeseen hardships even death. He has died four times in Dragon Ball, and these instances are listed below.

 

1). Heart Disease

Goku seemed to have died again during the Future Trunks Saga arc, due to a heart virus. Thankfully, Future Trunks returned 20 years in time to give Goku the cure and ended up warning him of the imminent threats of Android 17 and Androi 18 in the process.

Dragon Ball is a series that continues to touch the fans’ hearts to date. Now, with new arcs coming in the Dragon Ball Super series, fans are even more hyped up. Not to mention the Dragon Ball Super: Superheroes movie that the fandom is waiting for with baited breath.

2) Fight against Hit

Although this did not last for more than a few moments, fans do seem to count this on the list as well. During his fight against Hit in the Future Trunks Saga, Goku faced the full impact of Hit’s Phoenix Eye Fist which resulted in his death. Thankfully, he seemed to have already released a Ki Blast into the air before he was hit. His Ki Blast landed on him moments later and resuscitated his body.

3) Fight against the Semi-Perfect Cell

Fans witnessed his next death in the Cell Games Saga arc, where he sacrificed himself to try to protect, well, the world. During the fight, Goku’s son Gohan’s Super Saiyan 2 transformation seemingly completely overpowered Cell.

Which is why, as a last ditch effort, he had to make a self destructive blast. Goku then used Instant Transmission to transport the blast to King Kai’s world, sacrificing himself, Gregory, Bubbles, as well as King Kai, in the process.
