Many Dragon Ball Z and DC Comics fans imagine and create fictional battles in which the Saiyan and the Kryptonian clash. Since our favorite Saiyan unveiled his new form (Ultra Instinct), the outcome of this battle has once again been called into question. Today, our online store offers you a 5-round match to finally decide between these two superheroes: Goku, the tenacious Super Saiyan, and Superman, the Man of Steel. Are you ready for this Goku VS Superman match!
We also invite you to discover a major confrontation… Goku vs Saitama!
🔥PRODUCTS OF THE MOMENT🔥
ROUND 1: STRENGTH AND ENDURANCE
GOKU
Physiologically, Goku is 175 cm tall and weighs 62 kg. His main masters are Muten Roshi, Karin, Popo, Kami, Master Kaio and most recently, in Dragon Ball Super: Whis. Initially weak when he first arrived on Earth, he acquired spectacular strength through intensive and disciplined training 🏋️
SUPERMAN
On Earth, the Man of Steel is not to be outdone. The Kryptonian’s cells are able to absorb solar radiation ☀️, giving him superhuman strength, resistance and immeasurable speed. He can destroy planets with a single punch and breathe in space. In the original comics, he was even able to move an entire solar system with the strength of his arms! In terms of speed, he can run at 3219 kilometers… per second.
Superman is also resilient: even the collision of two planets couldn’t kill him (although it did seriously affect him). However, his super-power has been limited by a mental barrier that prevents him from fully exploiting his powers. “With a step, I can create an earthquake. With a breath, a storm. It’s my burden, be glad it’s not yours.”
Contrary to popular belief, Clark Kent knows how to fight. He has mastered the Kryptonian martial arts, enabling him to create illusions and astral projections, as well as the Earth martial arts (he has been trained by Batman and Wonder Woman, among others).
VERDICT
Even if Superman was able to move a solar system with the strength of his arms (which is a huge exaggeration 🤦 ), we’ll put that aside. What’s more, he can’t fully exploit his strength due to self-imposed limitations. However, the Man in the Tight Briefs is quite capable of resisting the explosion of a planet, which is not the case for our Saiyan warrior.
Goku: 0 – Superman: 1
ROUND 2: CHILDHOOD & EDUCATION
GOKU
Kakarot was born to a working-class Saiyan warrior on the planet Vegeta. He narrowly escaped the extinction of his race when he was sent to Earth with the simple and effective mission of destroying everything in his path. One day, however, he hit his head hard and forgot the reason for coming to Earth 🤪
Nicknamed Goku by his adoptive grandfather, his life revolves around fighting… and food! As explained in the previous article “Goku vs Saitama”, our messy-haired hero unfortunately doesn’t stand out for his intelligence.
SUPERMAN
Kal-El was born to a seasoned scientist on the planet Krypton. This American cultural icon belongs to the imaginary world of the DC Universe. Like Goku, he narrowly escaped the destruction of his home world when his father sent him to Earth. After landing, he was taken in and raised by the Kents, who decided to call him Clark. They quickly accepted his alien nature 👽 as well as his superpowers.
VERDICT
It seems that thanks to his upbringing and innate talents, Superman is more of an intellectual than Goku.
Goku: 0 – Superman: 2
ROUND 3: POWERS & SKILLS
GOKU
One of Goku’s talents is mastering the “Ki” technique. In metaphysics, Ki is made up of elements such as vigor, courage and spirit. It’s worth noting that Dragon Ball Z makes a clear distinction between Ki and magic. His two most powerful attacks are Genkidama and the unique and famous Kamehameha (“Destructive Turtle Wave”). He can even detect the presence of power from other Ki sources and teleport directly to them thanks to Instant Teleportation. In the event of injury, Goku can also consume a haricot Senzu to heal (although his Saiyan honor sometimes prevents him from doing so). For a while, the Kaioken was his master trump card, but today, the Super Saiyan transformation is used by Goku in every fight worth his salt. It enables him to multiply his strength tenfold and surpass all the limits of his “normal” form. Yellow (Super Saiyan 1, 2 and 3), red (Super Saiyan God), blue (Super Saiyan Blue) and even white (Ultra Instinct Mastered)… a veritable rainbow 🌈!
SUPERMAN
Superman possesses thermal vision (a laser beam emanating from his eyes) of extreme molecular precision. However, this ability depletes his powers. His cooling breath is also very useful. However, he has one considerable weakness: Kryptonite, a stone that causes him to lose all his strength in an instant! However, Son Goku’s desire to fight his opponent at full strength will always prevent him from exploiting this weakness.
VERDICT
Completely ignoring the completely cheated Superman Prime One Million (Superman from the future having spent a lot of time in the sun, able to create life from nothing, travel through time, predict the future, etc.), Goku’s powers and techniques remain superior.
Goku: 1 – Superman: 2
ROUND 4: MENTAL AND TRAINING
GOKU
Goku strives to push his limits and has overcome many obstacles (including death… and marriage) along the way. Like all Saiyans, Goku lives to fight. He prefers to fight fair and get the best out of his opponent. He never gives up a fight 👊
Always eager to fight, he’s constantly on the lookout for opponents stronger than him in order to outdo himself… like when he mastered the Ultra Instinct during his fight against the famous Jiren the Grey!
SUPERMAN
Superman, meanwhile, is more into rejecting his powers. He’s more into self-control. After discovering his true heritage while still a teenager, Superman rejects his Kryptonian nature. Unconsciously, he develops mental barriers that prevent him from reaching his full potential.
Kakarotto is an exceptional warrior who’s always hungry for a fight. This is not at all the case with Superman, who only fights if he has to.
VERDICT
As a result, Goku is clearly more enthusiastic about his powers and more combative, allowing him to score his second point.
Goku: 2 – Superman: 2
ROUND 5: ENTOURAGE AND ALLIES
GOKU
Goku is lucky enough to be very well surrounded. His best allies are the Z Fighters, who, like him, possess colossal strength. Driven by team spirit, they fight epic battles together. His friends are not only powerful, they’re also loyal. Goku’s best allies in Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Super include Vegeta, Gohan, C-17, Majin Boo, Beerus, …
SUPERMAN
VERDICT
Superman prefers to evolve solo, while Goku likes to fight alongside his friends, on whom he can always count. By adding fusion to the equation, Goku wins without any possible doubt.
Goku: 3 – Superman: 2
GOKU VS SUPERMAN: GOKU WINS! But…
