Originally included in the fourth main narrative arc of Dragon Ball Super, known as the Fused Zamasu Saga, Goku Black was a mystery and immensely lethal opponent with all of Goku's strongest skills plus a few unique to himself—more especially, his Energy Hand Blade attack and his now famous Super Saiyan Rose transformation. Eventually combining with the other enemy of this arc, the Supreme Kai in-training Zamasu became one of the most powerful opponent ever seen in Dragon Ball, particularly after he becomes Infinite Zamasu, a universe-assimilating Big Bad that Goku couldn't fight.
Kuntu presents Super Saiyan Rose Goku Black in an art style almost exactly like Akira Toriyama and Toyotarou's official drawings. Kuntu shows Goku Black hovering mid-air with a mischievous smile on his face, therefore accentuating the character's cocky and arrogant attitude. Adding to the already visually striking character of the assault, Kalky draws in the smoke pouring from an energy sword from Goku Black's palm. Kalky honors Goku Black's visual design while making this Fanart wholly their own by ever so gently darkening the colors of the work to give it a darkly textured appearance.
With some basic shading and shadowing that goes a long way, Kalky expertly brings out the sadistic part of the Villain by also employing the brilliant light radiating from Goku Black's energy blade to give him an even more sinister bent. Fortunately, Zeno's superhuman power finally defeated Goku Black; but, with Kalky (@DBSKAKERU1) always finding fresh approaches to alter current Dragon Ball Super mythology to produce new and distinctive Fanart images, it may not be long before this evil doppelgänger is back in action making the Z-Warriors' lives miserable.

Within the realm of anime and manga, the enigmatic and stronger adversary known as Goku Black was a significant thorn in the actual Goku's side who almost destroyed all the Z-Warriors treasured in one swoop. Now, in new fanart including this frightening doppelgänger, Goku Black's wickedness is fully shown, highlighting just how terrible the character can be left to his own will.
Recently posted on X (previously Twitter), Kuntu (@DBSKakeru1) has been on fire as of late sharing amazing fanart honoring the Dragon Ball franchise as a whole but also producing numerous "What If?," situations only seen on Kuntu's profile.
With this Goku Black piece being no exception, producing art featuring Broly going Super Saiyan Blue, Future Gohan and Trunks taking a much-needed breather, Ultra Instinct Goku, Ultra Ego Vegeta, and Beastgyn teaming up—and much more, Kuntu knows what makes a good piece of Dragon Ball art.
Popular mangaka and animator Toriyama is well-known for his tremendous skill. Among the most well-known anime shows he developed are Dragon Ball and Dr. Slump. Tragic as the artist's death was, several memorials in honor of him—including one from Jim Lee—were produced.
Along with the popular favorite Dragon Ball Z anime, Dragon Ball Super is a follow-up to the original Dragon Ball series. Ten years after Majin Buu is defeated, Dragon Ball Super follows Goku and his allies on fresh exploits. Like its forebears, Dragon Ball Super received compliments all through its 131 episodes.
Given the popularity of the anime, it is not surprising that creators like Khedon choose to produce fanart. It enjoys a sizable following. This shows the degree of cultural influence the show has generated.
