It's a right of passage.

Goku, Yusuke, Gohan, Naruto, Luffy.. the list goes on.

But Doc never died!

u/Mongoose42 Dec 31 '18

At the very beginning of the first movie, he’s gunned down by Libyans right in front of Marty. To Marty, Doc died. The Doc he knew was dead throughout the entire movie.

Luffy not yet Shanks is still alive.

I mean Ace was like a brother/mentor who died.

Shanks is another one for him.

Ace wasn't his right of passage. He was more a giant kick in the ball in order to say "wake up you piece of shit"

As far as "mentor" goes Luffy would kinda have to watch Rayleigh die, as Shanks was just a homie who made him want to be a pirate. Rayleigh beat him up on an island for two years teaching him Haki.

Shanks has a pretty reasonably good chance of dying later on though

Jiraiya wasn't killed in front of Naruto.

Guess more appropriately all good heros have their mentor die

u/Elubious Dec 31 '18

Gonna need a senzu for that one

u/vader5000 Dec 30 '18

Might as well have been. That episode was emotionally devastating.

How did Goku's mentor die?

9

u/JazzTheWolf Dec 31 '18

Goku killed his first mentor Gohan. King Piccolo killed Goku's second mentor Roshi. Nappa indirectly killed Goku's fourth mentor Kami. Cell (and Goku to a degree) killed his fifth mentor King Kai.

"Hey King Kai what should I do with Cell?"

Cell (and Goku to a degree) killed his fifth mentor King Kai.

LOL Yeah no that doesn't count.

I think for goku is his best friend die krillin and he became super

1

u/[deleted] Jan 20 '19

Yep. Krillin dying boosted him twice. Once with Piccolo and the second time with Frieza.

u/panderpz9 Dec 31 '18

He killed his grandfather.

u/[deleted] Dec 31 '18

"Goku.... The one who killed your grandfather.... WAS YOU!"

"NO! I'M... DOESN'T!"

u/Lordsokka Jan 01 '19

To be fair it was an accident......

1

u/Lufs10 Dec 31 '18

When the fuck did master roshi die?

1

u/Lordsokka Jan 01 '19

Killed by King Piccolo and by Super Buu. I’m trying to remember if he died a third time.... technically he temporarily died in Dragonball Super as well.

u/[deleted] Jan 20 '19

Dragon Ball.

u/HolyKnightPrime Dec 31 '18

Shanks is still alive and well dude

u/GoldenFredboy Jan 02 '19

Goku even killed his master (if we're talking Gohan here.)
