Hot Take: Trunks hair should be blue?

Long story short Toriyama (rest in peace) has always been inconsistent with Trunks and Bulma’s hair color, many people seen and we learned this when DBS future trunks had blue hair like Bulma but kid Trunks was still purple

There have been various theories on this outside of Toriyama just being inconsistent such as hair maturing similar to blondes becoming brunette, to the anime production having trouble with purple hair so they changed it to blue for Bulma but they figured it out by the time Future trunks arrived, and so on

My opinion

My true opinion is that Trunk’s hair (both present and Future) should match Bulma’s hair

I get that the purple hair Trunks is more iconic and recognizable and some think cooler but it also never made sense he had purple while Bulma had blue and Vegeta the Saiyan black

So basically it comes down to which should be Bulma’s hair color the blue or purple?

Even in the manga's first two chapters, her hair was blue then it changed to purple for basically the rest of the series (which is why Trunk’s hair is purple as they just matched the manga)

Whereas in the anime Bulma’s hair was blue the whole time creating the hair confusion

And honestly the thing not many people bring up are the shades of the blue and purple

The lavender purple Trunks usually has in the anime and most games is a nice shade of purple at least on him

But the darker shades while still good it’s not what people think of so there's a perfect shade of purple for Trunks

Whereas the blue has had the most variations in shades throughout the years/series

Like I think in my opinion the anime DBS shade of blue on Bulma and Trunks is not the best shade of blue

(even here ^ it's slight but I like Bulla’s/Bra’s shade better here)

Let alone the initial confusion on whether he had super Saiyan blue since it matched that shade

I think almost any other shade of blue works better than the DBS shade of blue Bulma and Trunks has

This artist had a good drawing showing all the different shades Trunks and Bulma one or the other has had and while it’s not the perfect thing to reference I hope it shows what I mean

Which reinforced that I think if it was any other shade of blue I would like it more

I prefer Bulma with Blue hair (but maybe that's nostalgia in itself), so I think Trunks in turn should have that blue hair to match his mother

There's also a color coordination thing where the clothes future trunks wore in Super and what teen/present trunks wore during Super Hero made me like it better on present trunks as it went together better at least to my eyes

So I think if we don’t have that nostalgia for future Trunks in Z having purple hair I don’t think anyone would be up in arms when they changed his hair outside of general confusion or it being changed

Plus I think Bulma makes more sense with Blue hair and Trunks should match that

Coming from someone whose favorite color is purple :)

Obviously very opinion based as I truly do get those that think it should be purple

Like even from the original manga Bulma and Trunks should have purple despite the anime popularizing Bulma’s blue which in turn overwrote the manga in a sense that even Toriyama when designing that family later on in Super planned for both to be blue-haired and it was just the anime again doing something different by keeping kid Trunks hair purple despite Toriyama designing him to have blue

So it could literally go either way
