In the sequel series, new characters and powerful fusions have been introduced, but the return of Gotenks has been teased without a proper appearance. Goten and Trunks, now operating secretly as Great Saiyaman X-1 and X-2, have attempted to fuse into Gotenks during their battles against Cell Max and Gohan. Unfortunately, each Fusion Dance has resulted in an imperfect fusion, with Gotenks turning out to be comically obese in chapter #102.

This recurring gag, which was once promising as an epic redemption for the young Saiyans, has become a disappointment for readers. The original introduction of Gotenks during the Buu arc showcased the young duo as a powerful force capable of challenging Super Buu. However, Gotenks’ arrogant and prankster personality added a comedic element to the narrative.
The Balance Between Comedy and Tension in Dragon Ball Super
The balance between comedy and tension in storytelling may explain why Gotenks has yet to have a serious showing in Dragon Ball Super. A successful Gotenks fusion could disrupt the narrative’s ability to build tension by introducing another powerful force. However, fans remain hopeful that the creators, Akira Toriyama and Toyotarou, are saving a significant Gotenks return for the concluding sagas of Dragon Ball Super.

In the realm of missed opportunities, Gotenks’ recurring comedic appearances leave Dragon Ball Super fans eagerly awaiting the day when the powerful fusion gets the chance to shine once again. Perhaps in the future, we will finally see a Gotenks who lives up to his full potential and provides the epic battles that fans have been yearning for.
