* YankTheDogsChain: Immediately tells everyone about getting kissed by 18. [[spoiler: Tien Shinhan doesn't believe him, Trunks can't believe him, and Piccolo doesn't care.]]



* GenreBlind: Briefly. He misses the tone shift when Kami starts to discuss [[spoiler: Cell.]]



** He also (though reluctantly), and after Krillin brought it up, immediately [[spoiler: flew off to Kami's to fuse with him, knowing full well he'd have another voice in his head as a result.]]

* ReliableTraitor: Vegeta might hate everyone, threaten to kill them on a regular basis and only [[EnemyMine teams up with them]] to fight the BigBad, but at least he tends to be around more than Goku, who only ever shows up at the eleventh hour.



---> '''Krillin''': Jesus, Future Bulma! ''[[WhatTheHellHero What the shit?!]]''



* NaiveNewcomer: The kid's not dumb, but he doesn't actually know that much about the main characters, their past, or their relationships to each other, and he starts off with a number of assumptions about them that are a bit... innocent.

'''Vegeta''': Oh, wow, I'm just f*cking with you. My god, who doesn't know what marriage is. Also, "love each other"? Making a lot of assumptions here.

Vegeta is far more evil than the Androids, and causes far more damage than they do.

* ClapYourHandsIfYouBelieve: During the battle with Freeza, Vegeta seems to think that if he says that he's a Super Saiyan often enough, it will be true. In fairness, he's going off a thousand-year-old legend, so it's probably not clear to him that there's more to it than just having a high power level (or exactly how high that power level is).

*** Though this may be justified because Goku hasn't been near any mirrors as a Super Saiyan.



** He also cannot shut up when he is scared, informing Vegeta about the potential-unlocking Super Kami Guru, telling Captain Ginyu where the majority of dragon balls are located (right behind him, to be fair), screaming out loud about Goku's "secret" attempt to defeat Freeza (the latter thankfully had no idea what he was talking about), and '''[[SubvertedTrope almost]]''' dropped Earth's name as their home planet to [[TheSociopath Freeza]] (only for [[JerkAss Dende]] to spill it himself)).

** FutureImperfect: As both Tien and Vegeta lampshade, Trunks has a tendency to make a ''lot'' of assumptions on what he ''thinks'' happened in the past, rather than what ''actually'' happened, as well as what people were like. This can be blamed on Bulma's less than through explanations.
