* DrunkWithPower: After attaining godly ''ki'' and battling several powerful enemies in ''Super'', he ends up encouraging the Zenos into carrying out the Tournament of Power, hoping to fight even stronger opponents. He does not realize the consequences of piquing their interest until it is too late.

* FearlessFool:
** As a kid, Goku was known for being fearless to the point of arrogance, such as taking on the entire Red Ribbon Army by himself with no plan or backup and charging Muscle Tower without a coat in freezing weather. What made Goku stand out from most who falls under this trope was that he could get away with it since only a few people in the world could hurt him. His fearless fool tendencies finally caught up with him in the King Piccolo Saga when he blindly went after Tambourine and was promptly defeated because he was weak from fighting Tien. He also tried to take on Piccolo without any knowledge of who he was and got beaten to the point that his heart stopped. He loses most this trait after training with Kami and learned not to underestimate his opponent. However, it does reappear when he has the desire to fight strong people, even when advised against it by everyone. He asked to fight Beerus, despite all the warnings from King Kai, and he went and asked Zeno about the tournament he promised, despite Beerus ''and'' Whis telling him that's a horrible idea. Beerus even threatened to vaporize him to keep him from seeing Zeno, to which Goku gives the God of Destruction a [[NervesOfSteel defiant glare]]. In the first case, he gets a bruised ego after Beerus two-shotted him. In the second example, he indirectly [[NiceJobBreakingItHero endangered the entire multiverse]].
** Frieza outright calls him one in ''Resurrection 'F''', stating that his power makes him overconfident and he is too lenient on his enemies.

** According to Whis in Resurrection 'F', Goku is too laid back for his own good, allowing his opponents to exploit holes in his guard. This is proven true when he lets his guard down during the fight with Frieza, nearly leading to his death.

** According to Whis in Resurrection 'F', Goku is too laid back for his own good, allowing his opponents to exploit holes in his guard. This is proven true when he lets his guard down during the fight with Frieza, nearly leading to his death. This also happened when he thought he won against Piccolo in the 23rd World Martial Arts Tournament, where he thought he defeated Piccolo only for Piccolo to suddenly use a blast attack through his chest. He was caught off-guard against Freeza in Namek when he wanted to leave the fight, and while he avoided the attack, it narrowly missed. And after his fight against Vegeta in Buu saga, he let his guard down once Vegeta said they should team up against Buu, but then Vegeta hits him when his back is turned. In all of those cases he let his guard down when he thought the battle was over.

This is parental hypocrisy and it's already covered under that trope.


** In the Cell Saga, Gohan deliberately prolongs his beating of Cell solely to humiliate him and make him suffer for his crimes. Goku is taken aback despite the fact that he himself did the exact same thing to Frieza for the same reason.



* HypocriteHasAPoint: As stated above, Goku is horrified when Gohan deliberately drags out his fight with Cell purely because he wanted him to suffer as much as possible, and [[KillHimAlready literally]] ''[[KillHimAlready screams]]'' [[KillHimAlready at Gohan to finish him off to no avail]]. While Goku himself had previously done the ''exact same thing'' to Frieza for the ''exact same reason'', considering the fact that he barely escaped [[EarthShatteringKaboom Namek's explosion]] as a result of his anger and need for vengeance, Goku makes a valid point and has clearly learned from his mistake. He's proven right when Gohan's actions lead Cell to FreakOut and try to self-destruct, [[EarthShatteringKaboom taking the Earth]] [[TakingYouWithMe with him]]; Goku is forced to pull off a HeroicSacrifice to save the world from the blast, and Gohan knows [[ItsAllMyFault it's very much his fault for not listening to Goku's warnings]].
