If you have not followed the step to Dragon Ball Superwe tell you that now it complicated things, since it has recently revealed a new evolution of the use of the Ultra Instinct of Gokuwhere he kept his black hair, which is why the artist behind the manga explained how this version of Ultra Instinct is different from the silver-haired version.
Since in the arc of Granolah the Survivor saw Goku unleash several variations of his form ultra instinct as his mastery and experimentation continues to result in different shapes that allow him to propel himself in different ways for different occasions, but, it turns out, there’s a lot more nuance to these variations than fans might have initially expected.
That’s right, since as the Dragon Ball Super manga artist explained, Toyotaroin a special interview with the official Dragon Ball website, the black-haired Ultra Instinct is what Goku chose to use because he can’t keep the silver unless he’s calm, so the black-haired version allows him to take advantage of completely their own power “real”and it seems that it was a better option for fighting Gas in the middle of all his practice with the Ultra Instinct state.
“The reason why Goku finally chose to go with the black-haired form this time is because the silver-haired form cannot be maintained unless the mind remains calm.”Toyotaro explained. “With the black-haired one, he could show his true self and still use Ultra Instinct. So, he went for that transformation. I feel like Goku is becoming more and more familiar with Ultra Instinct. Or rather, making it more of his own.”
“Even if you don’t transform, like Whis, you can still be in an Ultra Instinct state, so this isn’t a special state of being. Rather, it would be ideal for one to be in an Ultra Instinct state no matter if they’re asleep or awake. I think Goku is getting closer and closer to that level.”
Finally, Toyotaro explained that he feels that it is as if Goku and Ultra Instinct merge more: “This is not an unusual state, rather I imagine it as Goku’s mastery of Ultra Instinct slowly seeping into his own body. So, I feel his hair is returning to a style closer to Goku’s original. So, I have a picture of him with black hair.” If you want to watch Toyotaro’s full interview, click here.
