Gohan Blanco

2017catchphraseclassic

Gohan Blanco is a Spanish-language Dragon Ball Super fan meme built around the character Gohan's white-haired 'Ultimate' transformation from April 2017. Latin American fans turned the moment into shitposts, mock power rankings, and a webcomic catchphrase, 'Esto es el fin, Grande Padre,' that spread through 4chan and YouTube throughout late 2017.

Overview

Gohan Blanco, Spanish for 'White Gohan,' is a joke identity that Latin American Dragon Ball fans and English-speaking shitposters slapped onto the Ultimate/Mystic Gohan transformation shown in Dragon Ball Super episode 881. The bit treats Gohan's white-haired power-up as a new canonical form more absurdly overpowered than anything else in the series, complete with fake power rankings, mock lore, and a signature Spanglish catchphrase, 'Esto es el fin, Grande Padre'2.

The meme is deliberately low-effort in a /a/ 4chan style, mixing broken Spanish, shitpost wiki pages, and fake death-battle theories against Jiren and the Grand Priest3. Its aesthetic is a screencap of Gohan mid-transformation, sometimes recolored, paired with Spanish captions or MS Paint edits that treat Gohan Blanco as a demigod-tier character1.

How It Spread

On September 27th, 2017, an anonymous 4chan user posted a parody Dragon Ball power ranking that placed Gohan Blanco at the very top, above Jiren and the Grand Priest3. Two weeks later, on October 10th, YouTuber suprememe uploaded 'Blanco Gohan (Super Saiyan White) Full Theme,' which compiled the shitpost comics and edits circulating on /a/ and pulled in more than 2,000 views in its first three weeks1.

The canonical version of the joke locked in on October 11th, 2017, when an anonymous Imgur user posted a multi-panel Spanish-language webcomic where Gohan delivers the line 'Esto es el fin, Grande Padre' (translated from Spanish) in the final panel1. On October 13th, NarutoForums user XImpossibruX posted a confused thread asking 'Who the hell is Gohan Blanco? Is this a Mexican Meme?'4, and on October 15th a video titled 'Gohan Blanco vs Jiren' from the Facebook page AkiraToriyamaBrazil pulled in over 19,000 views and 200 reactions inside 11 days5.

The joke then generated its own spinoffs. Anonymous 4chan posters invented 'El Hermano,' a fictional brother of Jiren, on October 17th, 20171. On February 25th, 2018, YouTuber yeetman92 uploaded a fan-animated 'Dragon Ball Super 132 El Hermano vs Jiren (Full power)' that reached more than 860,000 views in two months6. A parallel remix, 'El Shaggy Blanco,' had already appeared on October 13th, 2017, riding the Ultra Instinct Shaggy wave and later inspiring a full Ultra Dragon Ball Wiki entry for Shaggy Blanco on December 29th1.

How to Use This Meme

The template typically pairs an image of Ultimate Gohan (often with the hair recolored fully white) with Spanish or Spanglish text treating him as an unbeatable meta-tier character. Common conventions include mock power rankings placing Gohan Blanco above canon threats like Jiren, fake episode titles involving 'El Hermano' or 'Grande Padre,' and the sign-off line 'Esto es el fin, Grande Padre' used as a copypasta punchline1.
