Gohan's Nova Saiyan Form in Action [Sketch] (Patreon)

Getting serious for a moment and stepping away from the porn, THIS is the form Gohan actually attains after mastering ki to it's utmost limit. Nova Saiyan.

I teased this form in my first draft of Golden Age on fanfiction.net, and even teased it during the Gohan's First Date comic when I did a concept of it when he was facing off against Buu Bra (you know, before banging her). This is the form fully realized and unleashed.

There is a steep price for achieving this form. The user literally has to die in such a way that their very being is erased from existence. Gohan manages to unlock this state when Cthulu manages to drag his soul into the abyss dimension beyond his own, to the point that the matter making up his body and soul evaporates. Gohan manages to unlock this form and burn his way out and back into his reality.

The form requires mastery of energy to a level unheard of by mortals. When in this state, not only is Gohan's hair constantly on fire with energy, but he can break his body down into energy at will. His connection to the ki of the multiverse is also razor sharp, allowing him to execute martial arts techniques with near perfection- and even perform miracles to a certain degree.

Though the form allows him perfect speed, technique and control over energy, there are big weaknesses to it. For starters, beings that can absorb energy on contact can negate this form, such as Scorch and- surprisingly- the androids. Reina, since she can sense energy so precisely in order to use her fighting style, can also fight against this Gohan on equal footing.

Because of these weaknesses, Gohan only uses this against opponents as a sort of last resort, and he is forced to pull it out when faced against the best during the Tournament of Power, not just Jiren. Another team from another, one of the stronger universes, also participates where Gohan uses this form to match them.
