Future Gohan is the version of Gohan from the same ravaged timeline as Future Trunks, and his story is one of Dragon Ball's most profound tragedies. After the deaths of Goku from a heart virus and Vegeta, Piccolo, Krillin, and the other Z-Fighters at the hands of Androids 17 and 18, the teenage Gohan was left as Earth's sole defender.Future Gohan is the version of Gohan from the same ravaged timeline as Future Trunks, and his story is one of Dragon Ball's most profound tragedies.
