I wonder how much of that was timing though - after Goku died, I got the impression everyone just kind of lost heart about fighting and adventuring and retired, Krillin especially (and 18 never struck me as someone who would care about that sort of thing unless a gigantic bag of cash was on the line anyway). Retired Vegeta, however, is still a proud Saiyan warrior, and would never forgo a measure of training or raising his own son to be just like him.

I think what sucked most was that the Special had me pulling for Gohan even though he was Doomed by Canon.
Why would he be younger? Gohan should be the age he was upon returning from Namek + Trunks's age + another year or two.

My Tumblr. Currently side-by-side liveblogging Digimon Adventure, sub vs dub.dunno.just me being messy with timelines.
Gohan!Prime (he'll kill you to death!) had an extra 7 years.then another 7 in the time skip to Buu arc i think?
if we let that time pass normally,we'd get 19 yo Gohan and 14 year old Trunks,which is kinda what we got for Future Gohan.or no?
my math's messy ›.‹
Yes. Yes it is.
Future Gohan was 22-23 when he died, depending on the month. Older than his present counterpart even without the year inside The Room.

Future Gohan would be around the age of GT Gohan, though a bit younger thanks to our Gohan's use of the Hypersonic Lime Flavor.
On second thought, sorry to bring up GT at all.
Speaking of the gag with mispronouncing the Room's name, I hope the "knocked off the lookout" joke comes back once or twice more. It somehow even funnier happening to Goku than it was happening to Krillin. I guess it's a good chance it'll happen to Dende during the Buu saga, but that's likely to be a bit more dramatic.
And speaking of people getting smacked around, next episode should include the bit where Goku punches Gohan, right?

Oh yeah. Seeing Goku get knocked off the lookout was hilarious. Especially since he should be stronger than Kami and Popo, but then again, this is Abridged Popo, who can apparently kill anyone with the greatest of ease.
Twenty Bucks says when they get to Beerus, it'll be Popo who stops him after a long stare down.
One Strip! One Strip!

Wow, didn't think you were that stupid.
what do you mean I didn't win, I ate more wet t-shirts than anyone else
