>Toriyama got bored with Gohan being the MCToriyama's own words regarding Gohan being the MC are, "I really liked that part" and "I enjoyed working on that part [...] I would have liked to just go on with the "slice of life" stuff..."
If you ask me, it sounds like Toriyama enjoyed Gohan being the MC and still stuck with that plan until the very end--going as far to make Goku's narrative revolve around "the next generation", and even having Gohan choosing to dawn his father's gi for the first time, in a passing of the torch moment.
>it's always from someone else whispering on Tori's ears.This claim is the ultimate irony of your post. Looking back at the previous Toriyama quotes, we can see his struggle between what he wants and something else. What is that "something else"? It's the demand from editors and fans asking for more action and Goku, whom they grew attached to. Toriyama by that point moved on and was fully invested in Gohan as the MC, see
>>277190840, but had to scale things back to appease those whispers in his ears.
>How the fuck can you be a GohanbroNow this question is one someone of your complexion might not ever be able to understand, so it's best not to bother. Character writing is not something non-Gohanbros appreciate. People like you gravitate towards one-dimensional "I punch bad guy wakuwaku" characters like Goku since anything more nuanced than that is too complex.
>>bbbbut he's strongest!!A true statement no matter the copes and reality denial. The story itself (Gohan being their only hope in defeating Cell / Beast being the new benchmark), the characters in the story (Goku, Vegeta, and Piccolo all commenting on Gohan's potential), and the creator (outright calling Gohan the strongest) all make that clear. Gohan's strength is not something to be debated.
