#gochi still my number one ship tho

[carnal-lnstinct]

How do you feel about Gobul? And how do you think it would’ve played out through the series?

readmore cause I talked too much lol

I never disliked the idea of Gobul and I embrace it far more now than I did when I was younger (having seen dbz before db), but yeah I honestly think they're cute together. I just accepted everything I saw as a kid and kept rolling to get to the next fight so I do love their canon dynamic more than anything because it feels like how they're supposed to be, but I wouldn't lose my mind if things played out differently and they wound up as a couple instead.

Goku and Bulma have love for each other whether it's just old friends or like family, it's not crazy if wound up being more and they lived happily ever after. I don't think anyone outside of Bulma (and Krillin) understands Goku the most so being his rich, fiesty wife and loyal best friend respectfully just fills out everything he would need to just keep doing what he doing anyways. Even their kids are best friends, they may as well be brothers by blood! That being said I do not vibe with TrvnksxG0ten or TrvnksxG0han or TrvnksxP4n or anything involving Mai

Gobul could still have Gohan after Piccolo Jr is defeated, and then later on Trunks and/or Goten (twins maybe?). Probably Trunks for the android timeline. Gohan would still be a scholar of some sort with his genius mom and grandpa, but still kind like his dad and grandma and probably still strong af since they never address his rage boost (we know it comes from Chi Chi toei just give us the truth already)

Plus romance doesn't matter in db, we know it's just to give them something to do off-screen/downtime/for comic relief until the next big thing happens. Bulma would be at Goku's neck the same way Chi Chi was, she'd still bonk him on his head and call him out on his impulsive judgment calls, but because she is often more involved with the bad things that happen then she may be less confrontational about training their kids and understanding towards their saiyan instincts.

So I don't think too much of the series would be different up until the 7 year time skip and of course how Trunks handles coming back to the past to meet Goku and give him the heart virus antidote. Even if he doesn't tell him they're his mom and dad goku shows his instincts are good at reading people around that time so he'll trust him. Or Trunks could just tell Piccolo, Krillin or Yamcha to ensure he is born
