Son Goten, the youngest son of Goku and Chi-Chi, inherits a dual Saiyan-Earthling lineage. Born in late Age 767, he spent his first seven years unaware of his father’s existence, as Goku perished during the Cell Games. Under Chi-Chi’s rigorous martial arts tutelage, he unwittingly unlocked the Super Saiyan transformation at age seven—a record-breaking feat. His childhood features mirrored Goku’s so closely that he later adopted Gohan’s Cell Saga hairstyle to distinguish himself. By *Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero*, set a year before *Dragon Ball Z*’s conclusion, Goten emerges as a 16-year-old with a newfound stature and maturity. Clad in a long green buttoned shirt, purple undershirt, black pants, and shoes, he navigates Blue Hal High School alongside Trunks. Balancing academics with secret crime-fighting as Saiyaman X-1, he employs Pilaf’s transformation watches to conceal his identity—a role that contrasts his earlier ridicule of Gohan’s Great Saiyaman persona, signaling his growing sense of duty. Once a prank-loving child shaped by Trunks’ influence, Goten matures into a compassionate teen who retains a fondness for wild animals and snacks like pocky sticks and strawberry daifuku, still recoiling at vegetables. His bond with Trunks remains pivotal, though their once-seamless fusion as Gotenks falters in later years due to waning synchronization, evident in botched sparring sessions and battles. Goten aids in thwarting threats such as the Cell Jrs. on Monster Island and Dr. Hedo’s androids, partnering with Krillin and Trunks to dismantle advanced models like Dinodroid 1. Alternate realities paint grimmer outcomes, including a timeline where Zamasu—inhabiting Goku’s body—slays Goten and Chi-Chi to crush opposition. His familial ties include unwavering loyalty to Gohan and a nuanced rapport with Chi-Chi, who transitions from emphasizing academics to endorsing his martial endeavors. In *Dragon Ball GT*, his priorities drift toward ordinary pursuits, favoring friendships and hobbies over combat.
