Gohan Blanco meme explained.

Who And What Is 'Gohan Blanco' And Why Is The Meme At The Top Of Every 'Dragon Ball' Tier List?

If you've ever seen an episode of the anime Dragon Ball Z or Dragon Ball Super, then you've undoubtedly seen the main character Goku do some fighting. As the main character, he's always the one that has to be the most powerful, which only begs the question, "Who is Gohan Blanco and why are memes saying he's stronger than Goku?"

Though several years old now, the meme character Gohan Blanco is still quite prevalent online, so let's explain who he is and what this meme is all about.

Who and What Is "Gohan Blanco?"

Put simply, Gohan Blanco is the character Gohan, which is Goku's oldest son, with white hair obtained from powering up to Mystic form. This Mystic form was acquired during Dragon Ball Z in the middle of the Majin Buu Arc and was meant to be a way to make Gohan relevant again and have him take over the story as the main character.

Unfortunately at the time, it was determined that Gohan would waste his power-up and be once again relegated to a side character with untapped potential that squandered it, much to the angst of fans that have always rooted for Gohan. With the release of Dragon Ball Super, however, Gohan once again tapped into his potential and powered up to this mystic form with a white glow to him, which in Spanish makes him become "Gohan Blanco."


Just in case you weren't aware, many Spanish-speaking countries in the Americas love Dragon Ball Z. We don't mean enjoy, we mean LOVE it to the point where thousands of fans poured into a city square to watch a projected livestream of one of the biggest fights in Dragon Ball Super — not to mention that countless restaurants and shops have commissioned artwork of Goku or Broly in some form on the building as an art installation.

This love of Dragon Ball Z combined with the fan love of Gohan and many wanting to see him finally use the power that he showed as a kid made Gohan Blanco into a powerhouse of a meme throughout the latter half of the 2010s after its inception in 2017.

Gohan Blanco was a big meme when the episode first came out, and it continued to be one during Ultra Instinct Shaggy memes as a contender to fight the indomitable Shaggy, but those all eventually faded away.


What brought the Gohan Blanco meme back was instead a trailer for the new Dragon Ball Super movie, Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero, which focuses on Gohan more and had leaks detailing a new form for Gohan that gives him solid white hair — essentially making the Gohan Blanco meme a reality. A fan took a screenshot from the movie and digitally altered it to give Gohan the white hair and red eyes that were leaked to be in the Final Gohan form, which reinvigorated the character's fanbase.
