[up]

That's good advice.

Getting on another topic, this is the first time (outside of any game appearances) that the voice actor for Adult Trunks has played Future Trunks again in the anime I believe.

Sure, he'd done an older trunks, but that was essentially Kid Trunks as an Adult, who you can argue is a different character from his future counterpart.

Must feel good to really come back to that role outside of some either some kind of re-enactment (such as what happens in most games) of the Cell Saga.

Nope, Takeshi Kusao has been Trunks` voice since his original debut and has voiced every version of him...even his present younger self.

And that concludes my useless weaboo knowledge for the day.

Rob: Um, she's significantly older than 38. Isn't even Goku older than that now? She's got about a decade on him.

...

Huh. Didn't know that. I mean, in hindsight, I did realize Kid Trunks' voice was male, because it didn't sound like the typical girl voicing a boy voice that we often hear in anime, but it's still weird to think he's the same dude.

I suppose because Goku sounds exactly the same.

She's older than Bulma and we saw Bulma turn 40 right?

Yeah. I belive so.

Strange thing is, I could swear she stated she was 38 in the movie version of Battle of Gods.

Eh whatever. Lets not talk about that shit.

So... how 'bout dat Masenko huh? It sure is an attack that Trunks' knows.

She could just be lying about her age.

Makes sense.

Kinda funny to think that despite being de-aged, she still felt a need to lie about it.

Mai said she was 41. But yeah, she was stretching the truth.

But it's a moot point now.

Clearly, whoever wrote Battle of Gods didn't look at the timeline right. Then again, neither did Toriyama when the Buu Saga started.

The *Legendary* Super Saiyan is motivated by a crying infant! He is a literal giant f***ing baby!

I think that's still a lie. She was a grown ass adult by the time Goku was 12-13. It's likely she has fifteen or twenty years on Goku.

I've been assuming around 20 for her age during he first appearance, which would put her in her late 40s.

Well, you know how Anime is?

Sometimes, the line between mid teens and late twenties is really really blurred, especially when they don't bother to give exact ages.

I'd agree Mai was probably somewhere in her Twenties though.

Isn't it kinda moot since there hasn't been any references to their actual ages recently?

I wonder if Bulma recognizes the Pilaf Gang yet.

She clearly doesn't.

Or if she does, with her husband around all the time, they aren't really a threat.

That being said, did any of Goku's friends really get a good look at the Pilaf gang?

I mean, I re-call in the anime Goku met them a few times, but these days I'm never sure what it adds and what's in the original manga.

Blooma, Yamucha, Oolong tea, and the flying cat only met them once. They got looks.

The Pilaf group were only ever following Carrot around though, so he'd remember...if they weren't so child-like.

[up]×2 They stopped being a threat years ago and they are currently children, so i doubt Bulma would care or feel threatened.

No, i simply wonder if Bulma remembers them or if she still thinks they are some random kids.

It'd be funny if only Yamcha remembers them, but after they're found out he just goes "You Never Asked".

Well there was that time Pilaf locked them in a metal cage so they'd be burned to death by the sun while taunting them over a TV intercom. I'm sure Bulma will be glad to see her son dating this lovely lady.

[up][up]Combine that reason with 'they're not really a threat anymore anyways' and I really hope that's true.

[up][up]That was the "one" time, but ya know how it goes.

Blooma gets a Yamucha and they spend all their time walking out of a desert, so who'd remember those guys?

Chi-Chi saw them too, but she had eyes for a certain Carrot. Survival and love overrides any memories of ineffective evil.

Agreed on the not a threat.

I mean, Mr. Satan could take them....even if they weren't kids. Provided there's no robot of course.
