Well, i have two things to say, well, actually three.
First: I have a really, really hard week, and the worst thing is that it's not over yet. I have to re-do reports on my internships and deal with the beginning of the month with no money. For this reason, I fled from reality with my comfort character: Future Trunks. This leads us to the second point.
Second: I watched the OVA of our favorite Marty McFly again and… damn girl.
Analyzing it in some way it's horrible how the androids not only torture him physically, they torture him emotionally too.
Not just because of Gohan's death. The whole sequence of their last confrontation before traveling to the past is part of a horror movie. You can see how Trunks tries to hide between the buildings but every time A17 or A18 find him, they beat him up, and then finally demoralize him.
Calling him useless, weak. You have to remember that he is only 17 years old. The PTSD is brutal. Although that whole sequence also demonstrates Trunks' immaturity and lack of battle experience.
Just compare this confrontation with the end of his saga.
The energy with which he faces the androids in that final fight is totally different.
In the first one we see a confident child (arrogant perhaps? Vegeta's genes making an appearance?) but in the last battle, we see not only part of that incredible potential as a fighter, but we also see a righteous killer, who only wants peace for his people.
Differences show growth and that's what makes one love these types of characters.
I'm not going to debate whether Trunks is a good fighter or not. From my perspective, he's someone who just needs more proper training, that would allow him to unleash his full potential.
And then, the third point: I'm fed up, this end of the year is hitting me very hard, so I usually make the meme that I'm Future Trunks and the Androids are my final reports. At least the laughter is not lacking.
