We're always putting new spins on our legends, adapting as we must to the times. Journey to the West's spiritual themes and growth, heh Kakarot's got that in spades (MAAAAAYBE not the intellect department, personally would like to see him come back to more than just a brilliant punch jockey, his combat IS where he grows as a person). These stories serve to teach us important lessons and hopefully help us avoid mistakes along the way, beforehand. The Monkey King, servant savant to the Prince of All Saiyans, shall continue to grow for as long as we remember them.
The Cha-La Head Cha-La at the end really sold it for me. It felt like it was taking the separate journies Goku and Gohan have been going on in Super and finally intertwining them. From playing in their backyard to sparring in front of the gods, Goku and Gohan really are the ultimate father-son duo.
Your description is perfect :) And highlights how I felt when making it; you can feel how far they’ve come in that moment, and it feels like they are really enjoying fighting each other.
I feel like while Gohan Beast has more raw power than MUI Goku, Goku has significantly more skill and experience, on account of very much having trained under far more Senseis than Gohan. But, either way, they're happy. They're fighting for FUN. Goku is immeasurably proud of his son for reaching new heights and so glad he's HAPPY. Gohan has finally come to terms with and accepted that sometimes, he DOES need to be a warrior. And now? He can fight his Dad with no stakes on the line. Just father against son, for the simple thrill of a spar. Also, having the song proper start and end with Cha-La Head Cha-La is textbook perfect.
Man, this is exactly what I wanted after seeing the new manga chapter. I imagine hearing this theme to be more of a nostalgic flashback about how Gohan was in his baby stroller, showing his potential after falling down, then showing his potential fighting Nappa until Goku arrived, attacking Frieza until Goku arrived, training for Cell together in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, unlocking his potential on the World of the Kais, his near death at the resurrection of Frieza, and at the end, the sparring battle before the Tournament of Power: Ultimate Gohan vs SSJ Blue Goku.
"I'm so proud you Gohan....my heart truly fills with joy....as an Earthling and as a Saiyan...My son, I can finally pass the torch to you. But before that you must defeat your father at full strength!"
I said it before and I'm saying it again guys. Know this now, GLADIUS is going to be a huge name in DB OST community by 2025 at the most!!! Absolutely marvelous!! This guys is the only person on RU-vid who is still doing justice to the retro DBZ osts! as well as incorporating them with the current DBS osts!! Recognition and appreciation well deserved!
Hey Gladius, considering that you are really enthusiastic about the OG faulconer scores, I was meaning to ask you if you could look into making a cover for "Frieza Begs" in DBZ American Soundtrack Volume IV. Its one of the most played themes in DBZ but hasn't gotten any covers on youtube. The hyperbolic time chamber themes are also not there much but I see that you have covered it. Would you look into "Frieza Begs"? Knowing your skills, the variations of that music must be ringing in your mind by now... 😂
The way you have incorporated the new earth music in this theme, you can maybe integrate Frieza Begs theme with the first 10 seconds of "Yucon Sucks" or "Vegeta's Visions"
My child started kindergarten this year and I've been relating to Gohan so much lately. He'll do a little less of what he loves to do so his kid has the freedom to do what they want to do. And he is proud of his strength because it means he can protect his child. Goku even said it in 103. Earth is in good hands.
I'ts very rare for me to comment on a video, but i wanted to thank you. Lately, i've been very negative with myself and my life. Looking down at myself. I have failed countless times and it has managed to put me down hard... but this beauty that you have created has reminded me of why i need to keep walking forward. Even without support and guidance. That i need to keep going even when im torn and tired. That if i keep working hard enough that ill find a way to get out of the darkness and into the light. So, thank you for giving me a bit of inspiration and motivation to get up and keep working on myself. Dragon ball is my childhood, and it holds a very special place in my heart. Keep up the amazing work.
I am right there with you my friend. I’m glad you commented 💜 I think out of all the things in my life, Since I was a kid, Dragon Ball has been the one thing that has persisted and continued to bring me out of dark places, or at the very least, be a light in those dark places. Thank you so much for sharing man, keep it going. You have inspired me too 🥰
Man this theme is awesome. For me, hearing the Super Hero theme made this peak. I absolutely love the movie and its soundtrack. Goku and Gohan have grown so much in power over the years. Been becoming a huge Gohan fan. I can’t wait to see who wins in the manga. Great job on this soundtrack once again. Saving this in my playlist for sure.
Gohan is my favorite character, i relate to him a lot :) I loved the Super Hero movie too! It’s about time I watched it again actually 😁 Looking forward to the next chapter. Thank you my friend glad you enjoyed this
@@GladiusThemes Yeah same lol. He’s always been such an awesome character. Watching him fight is awesome. I haven’t watched the Super Hero movie in quite I while either. I really should.
😁 You know I had to!! My goal was to try catch up with the Manga with all the themes, which I’m still going to do, but when this chapter came out I had to drop everything and make a soundtrack for it 🙏
So bold of you to put so many different musicians works into one to accomplish something that sounds less like a DJ’s playlist and more an amalgamation of the minds. Glad to see that the legendary GLADIUS is still making absolute bangers packed with enough DBZ nostalgia to make me audibly scream ‘Yes’ with that childhood delight of watching the newest episode. What a grand and intoxicating innocence. ☕️
Words alone will never suffice… we as a community cannot thank him enough for his endless contributions towards manga and anime as a whole. A lot of the friendships and memories we’ve forged through our love of the mediums are all thanks in large part due of him. They definitely wouldn’t be where they are today without him, that is for sure. I remember my first memory with his work being me watching through the Frieza Saga, when Goku turned Super Saiyan for the first time, showcasing a new paradigm of power, and started laying the smack down on the tyrant. Those punches carried so much weight and catharsis back then, and they still do today. It inspired me to go back and watch what came before, and to continue the series with what came after. It takes a master at the craft to have a message so powerful, like the one Dragonball instills, resonate just as strong all this time later. He definitely exceeded my expectations, time and again. Though it saddens me greatly to see one of the greatest of our generation go, there is a smile on my face, as I am grateful he was a part of our lives at all. The countless he has inspired... the endless he has graced with his works... we will never forget him. His legacy will always live on, and the absolute legend that he was will never say die. Rest in peace Akira Toriyama. You deserve your place in Heaven, King. You will be sorely missed.
How dare you make me shed a tear with this brilliant arrangement. Forget Cell, forget Buu, forget the ToP, forget Cell Max. This. THIS is Gohan’s capstone.
This is easily one of the best db tracks I’ve ever heard. You can hear the encapsulation of both father and son’s journey throughout the series and now they clash at their peak. Amazing work.
I elect this to be a Celebration to Never forget Akira in our hearts, We all thank Akira For Making One of the most Best and Most lovable Animes Of all time.❤️🔥❤️🔥👊🏻🙏🏻
Yesterday and today have been somber, when the news hit, His loss hurts so much Thank you Akira, for giving me so many precious Memories, Without him I would never have started watching Anime. this morning I saw the sun shining brightly I'd like to think he heard me say thank you. Gladius man thanks for making so many awesome tracks from this amazing series I know he would have loved it. I think Farewell from Dragon ball Super would be a good send off song. Shine on Toriyama and thank you again.
This is so freaking cool man this soundtrack deserves to be in the Moro Arc. Gohan finally reaching Goku at this stage is so heart warming that potential of he's finally came and seeing them in a fight with full power is gonna be the most goosebumps scene ever. A friendly father v.s son match will definitely break the internet again.
This is so amazing. It feels like "The end of Dragonball". It feels like a last episode song, Goku and Gohan fighting one last time before the credits roll. It gives me goosebumps every time I listen to it
Its honestly insane to think that Gohan has been able to catch back up again with Vegeta and Goku in terms of strength and power. In such a little amount of time while both Goku and Vegeta have been training nonstop. Gohan truly has an untapped potential. It makes you wonder how much more further ahead he would have been if he didn't stop training.... He's achieveved so much and to think that he's still younger than his dad when Goku was barely attaining SSJ3 (not 100% sure on that just talking about that) I'm super excited for what's to come next in the chapters!
I'm going to stop watching the show if they don't use this in their fight once animated. We truly don't deserve this for free. Thank you so much GLADIUS!!❤
I knew you wouldn't let me down! The best way to end a Sunday! This was the truly beastly instincts that sent me here, and at the end, I felt the nostalgia, GG gladius!
bro really dropped one of the hottest bangers of all time out of nowhere 🔥🔥🔥 i love these mashups with the different motifs, limit break x survivor always hits and i like how ones like this or ultra instinct perfected can paint such a good picture with just music. if you ever did ultimate battle i just know it would be heat
Now, Gohan and Goku look like brothers even though Gohan is still Goku's biological son. Plus, they are now fighting each other as rivals just like Goku and Vegeta. Although I now think that Goku, Vegeta, Gohan, Broly, and Piccolo are each able to fight each other as rivals given that now they are all at the level of a God of Destruction.
This is truly one of the most beautiful things Ive seen in a long time. Ending with Cha-la almost made me break down completely. Thank you, and Thank you Akira Toriyama for everything.
I’m back after hearing of Toriyama’s passing. This perfectly describes what Dragon Ball is. To show how far one can come if they try their hardest, even when it looks impossible. May he rest in peace 🙏
