Not true. Super is consistently inconsistent.

In the DBS manga, Goku was unaware of Gohan's birth.
Man they're really flogging this Ascended Meme (which wasn't funny even back when it was just a regular meme) to death, aren't they?
Super seems to try having it both ways with as far as Gohan's relationship with Piccolo and Gohan goes. They've pretty much accepted the "Piccolo is Gohan's father figure" bit entirely, and keep putting him in that role, but I guess not having Gohan pine for Goku's attention is somehow weird or whatever.
The joke never even made sense. Goku was gone a lot but that was because he was dead. Whenever he wasn't dead there was absolutely no indication that he was ever negligent.
This song needs more love.We have talked this topic to death so I won't linger on it but I will say...I get it.
Piccolo died for Gohan, he's expressed concern for his well being in dangerous situations, and such, the speech during the Cell Saga (faulty as it is), etc. But the thing is, Goku has also died for Gohan and worried about him in dangerous situations. Goku being away is generally because he's incapacitated or even dead, whereas Piccolo and Gohan generally didn't have extended time with one another regardless of Piccolo's status. Because Piccolo seemed to prefer to just be off on his own for the most part, and his affection for Gohan didn't change that.

I wanna know who's responsible for this.
Cause if this is another Toriyama thing, I'm going to be very unhappy he did this.
And if it's not, then the person who came up with it deserves to have his ass kicked.
Forever.
One Strip! One Strip!So, what, Chi-Chi never told Goku she was pregnant? She never explained what pregnancy is? She never said, "Hey, stop wrestling giant fish for five minutes because I'm about to go into labor"? D Id they just outright ignore each other?
What an awful, horrible, unhealthy relationship. Who the fuck is responsible for this?
My various fanfics.But the relationship was, is already horrible...
By non-fiction standards...
Rules of the Internet 45. Rule 45 is a lie. Check out my art if you notice.Should we really expect much from the creator of Xykor or whatever his name was?

Really, outside of Gohan, there was no point in marrying Goku to Chi-chi.
It did nothing for her beyond turning her into a nagging shrew (even if she does have a point), and Goku...well, it seems like it hasn't really added that much to Goku at all.
One Strip! One Strip!

The problem is that he acts a great deal like his Android arc self, and behaves the same way. They will mention his character development every so often, but still have him acting like he has the same unhealthy approach to everything.
In a nutshell, Super will include plenty of reminders of how he's changed, but when they're not deliberately pointing it out they have him act as though he never changed. It doesn't feel very consistent or organic.
One of the main problems with Super is consistency.
