Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero Sees Gohan and His Voice Actor Side-By-Side

Gohan's Beast Form puts the hybrid Saiyan/Human Z-Fighter on a different level from what we've seen from the Shonen fighter in the past, with Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero unleashing his strength when it came to fighting against the Red Ribbon Army. With Gohan's voice actor, Masako Nozawa, recently celebrating her eighty-sixth birthday, new art has arrived that sees the long-time Dragon Ball actor taking the opportunity to ready an attack alongside one of her beloved characters.   

Gohan's new Beast form not only gives Goku's son some major new power, it also gives his hair a gray hue while having it stand up straighter than it ever has before. The transformation came right in the nick of time when it came to destroying the Red Ribbon Army's newest creation, Cell Max, with Gohan suffering through an event that was quite similar to the moment that caused him to achieve Super Saiyan 2 during the Cell Saga. While Gohan's new form has yet to appear in Dragon Ball Super's manga, it will be interesting to see how it compares to Goku and Vegeta's current forms and whether it can come close to defeating Black Frieza in a one-on-one fight.

Twitter Artist Forest_88 shared an adorable new sketch that sees Gohan in his Beast Form getting ready to unleash a Special Beam Cannon alongside the woman who has been voicing him for decades, making for quite the 86th birthday celebration for Masaka Nozawa:

Presently, Dragon Ball Super has yet to state when the manga will return with new chapters, as the series went on hiatus following the Granolah Arc's conclusion. While no word has arrived when it comes to what the next arc might be, it wouldn't come as a surprise if Frieza and his new transformation played a significant role in the Z-Fighters' next adventure. With Dragon Ball set to have a role in this year's Jump Festa, we would imagine that word will arrive as to the manga's future this December.
