🎉 Happy Birthday to the Legendary Saiyan: Son Goku! 🎂🔥
Today isn’t just any ordinary day in the anime universe. April 16th marks the birthday of one of the most iconic and beloved characters in anime history — Son Goku 🐉✨. Whether you're a lifelong Dragon Ball fan or someone who grew up yelling “Kamehameha!” in the playground, Goku’s name surely brings back a rush of energy, excitement, and nostalgia.
Who is Goku? (As if we don’t already know 😉)
Son Goku — born Kakarot on Planet Vegeta — isn’t just the main character of Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z, Dragon Ball Super, and so many arcs in between. He’s the heartbeat of the series, the Saiyan warrior who showed us what it means to never give up, to push beyond limits, and to protect the ones you love — even when the odds are stacked against you.
From battling Frieza on Namek to taking on Jiren in the Tournament of Power, Goku has transformed from a mischievous child with a tail to a God-tier fighter with Ultra Instinct. But beyond the power-ups, it’s his pure heart, humility, and love for challenges that make him unforgettable.
Why We Love Goku ❤️
✔️ His never-ending hunger — both for food AND for improvement
✔️ His loyalty to friends and family
✔️ His quirky innocence that somehow exists even after facing universal threats
✔️ His iconic voice (shoutout to Masako Nozawa and Sean Schemmel!)
✔️ His unmatched battle spirit: "The stronger the enemy, the more excited I get!"
Goku's Legacy
Goku is more than just a character — he’s a symbol of resilience. He inspired generations to get back up when life knocks them down. From anime cosplayers to motivational posters, from YouTube AMVs to action figures on our shelves — Goku is everywhere, and today, we celebrate HIM.
