Gohan's "death" against Fat Boo

[ahill1]

When Gohan "died" fighting against Fat Boo, why were all of them sad about it if he could be revived by the Dragon Balls, even more when he never died and they just asked Shenlong to bring back all people that died in that day?

Toriyama forgot Gohan never died before.

Well... knowing that someone you care about went through death would suck in general, lmao.

Goku actually told Piccolo that Gohan was going to be sad he'd never see him again. It's really just terrible writing.

Yep, been through this before and it's an obvious plot hole.
