They're in High School, and in that specific game of the Tokimemo series, at a few days from Graduation, so they're 18. (And to me, they look that age, if you wanna ask me).

@The Pope: I remember you were talking about Chi Chi... If I remember correctly, there was a panel in the manga where Goku asks Chi Chi if it's really her, with a picture of her child self in the bubble speech. What about searching for that one and see if it's good enough?

You're looking at it through the eyes of someone who knows the series. I'm looking at it through the eyes of someone who has never seen it before.

^^ Maybe, but other people I know who don't know it either and have seen pics guessed they were high school students without me even giving a hint. That's anime style for you I guess.

In any case, found the DragonBall panel, but the scan's quality is horrible, and I don't know where to search for a better one. :/

[up] Not quite. It dances around the trope, but it doesn't hit it.

Yeah damn... the one time he actually says this trope he is in the bath and he is Imagining that she is coming in it (which she does 2 seconds later) [1].

(god damnit this got me reading the manga again...)

As a very odd suggestion, Perry Bible Fellowship did a comic around this concept.

The link seems to be working for me; the cartoon in question is on the top of the page.

I got the right cartoon also, and I'd say it's a great example but may be a bit too clever for its own good to use as a page image.

Bah, this site's problems are starting to get on my nerves. I previously posted that I forgot how the site presented it's comics, and that just about anything is up for parody. I hadn't even considered the image at the top of the page to be the comic.... but apparently it didn't post.

I like the first one, but we'd need a better second image, preferably one that shows the two of them together. Or if not, a similar angle instead of the top-shot.

(third one only to point out how much she has grown not 100% needed)

Not familiar with the source material, but it certainly fits. If we need something less obscure, we could go with Chi Chi or Hinata.

I like the first two together; the third one is optional. I don't mind using it, but I also don't mind not using it.

Yeah, not sold on the third one myself. We really only need the first two.

Ok that third one was just to really point out the All Grown Up part.

[1] [2] Here is the full size versions of those pics if anyone could edit them together, my attempts come out messy.

Could I get the third one, too? I want to see how well it would turn out.
