How to unlock all Gohan Branching Paths in Dragon Ball Sparking Zero

Although not having the game’s most time-consuming story mode (or Episode Battle) by any means, Gohan makes up for it through his selection of branching paths, which brings to fans both unique outcomes to battles and a Sparking Episode that sees him coming face to face with Gohan Black.

To help you unlock all of that and see the new what-if story, here’s how to unlock all of Gohan’s Episode Battle branching paths in Dragon Ball Sparking Zero.

Gohan can unlock a total of five branching paths in Dragon Ball Sparking Zero, which can be triggered during the Unleashed Rage, Dabura, Lust for Power, Astonishing Team, and Defend Earth from Frieza Force stages. From the above, the latter will lead to his already mentioned Sparking Episode, titled The Strongest Warrior. You can check out how to trigger each of his minor branching paths below, as well as how to unlock The Strongest Warrior further down.

As you can see below, and much like Vegeta’s, all of Gohan’s minor Sparking Zero branching paths can be unlocked by defeating set enemies within an unspecified time frame. All of them will also unlock ahead-of-time conclusions for their designed arcs.

• Peace Reclaimed (Unleashed Rage Branching Episode): By defeating Cell within the time limit.
• A Dependable Son (Dabura Branching Path): By defeating Dabura within the time limit.
• Stronger than the Strongest (Lust for Power Branching Path): By defeating Majin Buu within an unspecified time limit.
• Fighting to Protect (Astonishing Team Branching Path): By defeating Dyspo quickly. Based on our experience, we advise you to try to finish the match within 1 minute and 15 seconds. Will unlock an extra fight against God of Destruction Toppo.

If you are having trouble completing any of the above, you can use Dragon Obrs to lower their difficulty. You can get the orbs by selecting the “I want to Complete an Episode Battle” after summoning either Shenron, Porunga, or Omega Shenron.

A simple endeavor on paper, you can unlock the Defend Earth from Freeza Force branching path and start The Strongest Warrior Sparking Episode in Dragon Ball Sparking Zero by defeating Frieza’s Soldier and then depleting Frieza’s health to two bars within a specified time limit. We were able to unlock the path after doing the above in 1 minute and 26 seconds, so I recommend making this time frame your goal. As to how to achieve that, I recommend making use of the classic Violent Rush + Ultimate Blast combo.
