03 / MAJIN BUU
Stronger together.
New generations, different kinds of awakening, and two fusion methods widen the possibilities beyond one fighter chasing the next level.

03 / 06THE CHANGING SHAPE OF POWER
A STORY.
A NEW PERSPECTIVE.
Goten and present-day Trunks arrive as young Super Saiyans, while Goku reveals Super Saiyan 3. Gotenks makes Fusion Dance a central idea, and Goku and Vegeta’s Potara union introduces Vegito. Gohan’s potential release adds another route to strength without a new golden hairstyle.
This era is useful for learning the archive’s vocabulary. Fusion creates a new fighter; transformation changes the fighter’s state; potential release is another kind of development. Visually, the arc shifts freely between ominous scale and playful invention, including Gotenks’ explosive ghost technique.

01 AN ARTIST’S VIEW
LOOK CLOSER.
SEE THE DESIGN.
Original visual study notes. Choose one observation and try it in a drawing.
Read the combined identity
Fusion clothing and posture give a new fighter an immediate identity. Look for how familiar details become a coherent new design.
Balance the long hair
Super Saiyan 3 makes the hair a large part of the silhouette. Sketch its overall weight and direction before separating the individual locks.
Leave room for play
Gotenks brings invention and comic timing into the fight. An exaggerated expression or a surprising pose can carry as much personality as a dramatic blast.
