Dragon Ball Daima: How Strong Is Third-Eye Gomah?

by

Summary

  • Third Eye Gomah is stronger than any version of Majin Buu, toying with Goku and Vegeta effortlessly.
  • Gomah’s Evil Third Eye grants him near-immortality, making him almost unstoppable in battle.
  • Despite his power, Gomah has a weakness: hitting him in the back of the head three times pops out the Evil Third Eye.

heads up: what follows reveals key plot points from Dragon Ball Daima‘s Episode 20 titled ‘Maximum’, currently available on Crunchyroll.

Originally a scrawny and immature Demon King named Gohan, from the series Dragon Ball Z, significantly amplified his strength with his latest transformation: Third Eye Gohan. This name derives from the malevolent Third Eye artifact that bestowed him with such potent abilities. However, one may question just how powerful is Third Eye Gohan? Does he surpass the formidable adversaries that Goku and his companions have encountered previously?

As a diehard fan, I can’t help but wonder: Could the enigmatic Supreme King Gomah stand up against the formidable team of Goku and the Z Fighters? With their battle-tested skills against evil galactic tyrants, lethal androids, a perfectly crafted bio-android, and even the embodiment of pure chaos – a Majin, one might question if Supreme King Gomah is truly a formidable opponent, or, as Mr. Satan would put it, is he merely all flash and no substance?

Is Third Eye Gomah The Strongest Villain Thus Far?

Chronologically, Yes

In the timeline of Dragon Ball series, Dragon Ball Daimaoccurs before Dragon Ball Super. Consequently, prior to that, the most formidable adversary the Z-fighters had encountered was Majin Buu. Whether it’s Super Buu or Kid Buu that holds more power is a matter for another discussion. Regardless, Third Eye Gomah possesses power far surpassing any version of Buu from Dragon Ball Z.

Following the occurrences in Z, Goku and Vegeta have been relentlessly training. As Saiyans, this is their normal routine. Through their rigorous training, Vegeta attained Super Saiyan 3, while Goku may have unlocked a new form too. Given their enhanced power levels, they should surpass Majin Buu, as during the Buu Saga, they were not far behind him. However, in Daima’s finale, Third Eye Gomah seemed to effortlessly outmatch Goku and Vegeta. Moreover, the Evil Third Eye appeared to be consistently empowering Gomah, suggesting that if the battle prolonged, his strength could have grown significantly. This implies that Third Eye Gomah surpasses any form of Majin Buu comfortably.

Third Eye Gomah’s Immortality

In the grand spectacle of Dragon Ball Daima’s Episode 20, “Maximum,” the awe-inspiring Kamehameha of Super Saiyan 4 Goku left a colossal breach in Third Eye Gomah, a sight never before witnessed on screen. Yet, as if defying the very laws of destruction, the Evil Third Eye miraculously mended Gomah and repaired the gaping wound. Although his healing process isn’t as swift as Majin Buu’s regeneration, it suggests that no matter the extent of damage inflicted upon him, Third Eye Gomah will invariably recuperate and stand tall once more.

While adult Super Saiyan 4 Goku undeniably possesses greater power, as demonstrated during their climactic encounter, one could reason that this mightiness would ultimately exhaust Goku, whereas Gomah would persistently amplify his strength. In the absence of comrades to aid him, Goku would have succumbed to Third Eye Gomah’s relentless power.

In a world where his vulnerabilities weren’t exploited, I’d find it challenging to stop this titan! Characters from Dragon Ball Super would likely falter against him, with only the Gods of Destruction armed with their Hakai and those loftier beings like the Angels and Zeno having a reasonable chance of victory.

Third Eye Gomah’s Weakness

An Eye for an Eye As They Say

Although the Evil Third Eye bestows an immense power on Gomah, his new form has a vulnerability that, once understood, could be quickly exploited. The flaw in anyone wielding the Evil Third Eye is that the eye will dislodge from their forehead if they are struck at the back of the head three times consecutively. Even Piccolo, who had previously hit Gomah twice, couldn’t prevent this weakness, as Majin Kuu, a relatively weak character in ‘Daima’, was able to take advantage by simply hitting Gomah thrice with a book. The strength of these strikes doesn’t seem to matter much, as even the weakest attacks can potentially trigger the weakness.

Alright, let me walk you through this. You need to strike Gomah’s Tertian Oculus three consecutive times at the back of his head. I’m passing on this information to help you out, Goku. Let’s do it!

It appears that, as of now, the Evil Third Eye cannot be destroyed while it’s attached to someone’s forehead. Attacking it head-on might not be the best approach. However, once detached, the Evil Third Eye is just an ordinary eye. Glorio managed to crush it underfoot to destroy it successfully.

The primary protection the Demon King Supreme has against this vulnerability is primarily due to its secrecy; it’s scarcely known by many. Only one of Arinsu’s scrolls holds this knowledge, with even she not having this detail committed to memory. Fortunately, she recalled the existence of the scroll and chose to assist Goku. In the post-credits scene of the final episode, two more Evil Third Eyes were revealed, hinting that if Dragon Ball Daima season 2 ever airs, we might learn more about their abilities.

Dragon Ball Daima is now available to stream on Crunchyroll and Netflix.
