About Goku's intelligence

[Hagane_no_Saiyajin]

Now I definitely do think that Goku is very smart but I'm basically seeing the same text about how smart he is. Now I think it could work for DBZ Goku and DBS Goku but not really OGDB/Part 1 Goku. I mean in OGDB/Part 1 Goku was basically at his lowest in terms of intelligence, he didn't know anything, we had no social skills which had hilarious results, and was very ditzy. Sure he eventually learned and started really growing up by the time of the Piccolo Daimaō saga, but for the majority of part 1 he was an idiot. If I am to compare his intelligence to other characters outside of DB, I could name three. Lala Satalin Deviluke, Hibari (Senran Kagura), and Katsuragi, because he incredibly bubbly and ditzy, he lacks common sense, he can be quite a big hellion when fighting, and has no qualms about touching people down there or getting naked in public (I'm surprised he didn't grow up into a perv).

Lala is a genius tho she just doesnt have common sense because she wasnt from Earth. Compared to Gohan or vegeta, Goku isnt too smart imo

This is a lifestyle difference rather than intelligence. Not many people noticed this but you'd probably beat him in an IQ test, yet he'd survive in any forest while you'd probably die in an easy forest.
