    What I loved about the imagery was the Chains represented so much more than Goku being Trapped. It represented his mental state and how he was chained to rage through the beginning and throughout the story he finally broke the chains and was able to find happiness even through the pain he went through.

    I love how due to goku's trauma and experiences he learns to give everyone a 2nd chance which makes everything more interesting ESPECIALLY seeing Radditz, Nappa, and Zamasu which just got merc'd forgetting 90% of goku's pals in the series probably committed some atrocity at some point. Also seeing Radditz grow and be a better person was amazing.

    I gotta say, this is perhaps the best What If you have created besides "What If Bardock Went to Earth With Goku?" Every single part helps amplify how Goku's personality changed from a kind-hearted warrior to a ruthless Saiyan who cared about nothing but training as well as Grandpa Gohan's home.
    However, after meeting Raditz and joining with the Nappa and Vegeta to kill Frieza, coming back to Earth to destroy Gero and Cell, dying but returning 7 years later to stop Majin Buu as well as befriend him, obtaining SSJ4 against Beerus while Vegeta got the God forms, soloing the Universe 6 Tournament, Killing King Cold and putting Frieza's revenge on hold, teaming up with many more Gokus to stop Goku Black, redeem Present Zamasu, unlock Ultra Ego during the ToP with Vegeta unlocking UI, befriend Broly after Frieza's attempt to steal the Dragon Balls, stopping Moro's reign after regaining the lost years stolen by Kami, helping Granolah + Cell defeat Gas and the Heeters, and finally fusing with Vegeta into Vegito in the final test with Beerus and Whis who fused into Whirus as well. These adventures helped Goku regain the trust of his friends and give him the title as the next God of Destruction.
    Smugstick, this story was an awesome ride and I look forward to seeing more What Ifs with such an impact full story like no other. Keep up the amazing work! 👍

    Although this was released months ago glad I watched the full story. An excellent approach to the upbringing of Goku. Definitely a great comparison to the original. What enjoyed most was the power scaling stayed legit an reasonable grow was necessary to actually defeat a opponent. Plus a potential for more. 🎉😮🎉

      Thank you so much for your feedback and support!!!
      For this one it was very difficult to try and make a good story and have Goku be so strong. Making the power scaling realistic was one of the main challenges as I didn’t want it to be too unrealistic.
      So reading comments like yours really mean a lot as it means that I achieved my goal of making a good grounded story. Thank you again, and I hope that you enjoy my future videos :)

    I loved this! Tons of appreciation to everyone involved, you can really tell how dedicated everyone involved was to make this video happen. One part I especially liked was Raditz getting his own story and redemption arc. Also, can we get some respect for Vegeta managing to be the voice of reason almost the entire time? IIRC Piccolo took most of that role in DBZ, in his timeline it's all Vegeta all the time.
