Artist's Comments

I can't disguise that I'm envious of him - have been since the first time I died. He knows my son better than I do, watched him when I couldn't, taught him to fight, witnessed his first transformation into Oozaru. So many firsts he's seen that I've missed. So many firsts I've missed while I was alive because I've just been too occupied with fighting.

I wasn't there for his first steps; I was training in the forest. I missed his first real laugh; I was unconscious on the floor after knocking myself out on the table when I slipped on some of Go-chan's baby-mush foodstuff. (Incidentally, that was what made Go-chan laugh in the first place.) His first meal of solids (training in the mountains), his first haircut (training again), his first grazed knee (actually, I was cutting firewood during that one), his first word (I was fishing), which happened to be a gurgled attempt at my name (Go-go.) I envy Piccolo for teaching him what I couldn't...

I envy him that every time Gohan looks at him there is undisturbed love in his eyes.

I envy him that every time Gohan looks at me there is pain shadowing the love.

I envy him Gohan's smiles.

I envy him Gohan's laughter.

I envy him Gohan's hesitant attempts to stand close to him.

I am jealous

Comments: You know, if you really think about it, Goku isn't really all that great of a father to Gohan. He often leaves his family to go and train, or go fishing. He always tries to be the hero by self sacrifice in some way, when there are more important aspects to life than 'saving the world'.

Like your family.

If anything, Piccolo is more of a father to Gohan.

Goku always ends up disappointing the ones he loves, anyway.
