The latest episode of the series does just that as Gohan finally returns to his peak level of power with his Mystic form, something fans have been waiting for since Dragon Ball Super began.
In the latest episode of the English dub, Gohan begins training with Piccolo in an effort to return to how strong he was during the Majin Buu saga. Piccolo outmatches Gohan at every turn at first as he’s been training this entire time while Gohan has been living his peaceful life. After a stern talk from Piccolo in which Gohan finally realizes the situation, Gohan finally is able to break through his older self.
Transforming from Super Saiyan 2 to his Mystic form, the two begin training once more and although Gohan does better this time and matches Piccolo’s power, he still loses. It turns out that Gohan’s still been carrying around a major weakness. Much like the time he first used his Mystic form against Super Buu in Dragon Ball Z, he lets his guard down against Piccolo and loses.
But with the knowledge that he can’t afford to let his guard down anymore, and with the maturity of being much weaker for so long since he previously used the form, thre’s a hope that this version of Mystic Gohan will be much more powerful than before. Piccolo even mentions this as well, as he believes that Gohan’s only tapped into a small bit of his latent abilities and the two will train for as long as they can until the Tournament of Power officially begins.
