But Anyway I agree I don't think any amount of training Goku could do would let him surpass Gohan now I mean he was so much stronger than a super Saiyan 3, Goku probaly wouldnt have enough time to get to that Level and if he ever could he wouldnt get stronger...
Originally, the series was going to end after the Namek saga - with Goku dead.
Fan/producer pressure led him into making the Cell saga - which ended, again, with Goku dead, and Gohan as the most powerful (and the only 'Super saiya-jin 2"😉.
Then fan/producer pressure led him into making the Buu saga - which ended with Gohan as the most powerful character in the series, save for Vegetto, and the Super Buu after he had absorbed Gohan.
Then fan/producer pressure tried to lead him into making more, he refused, and GT was made without him. More or less.
Anyways, what I was talking about is that Akira claimed that Z was supposed to be 'Gohan's story,' where as DB was centered on Goku.
