Let's admit, Kuririn growing a hair and a bear was the saddest moment.
It was like the end of his career and life.

But then, how is he staying so young?
What's his secret?
He is human. Why is he getting younger and keeps growing more hair?
>>
18 pussy game ridiculous
>>
>>133925061
Everyone looks younger in Super, hell, even Bulma is looking younger than ever.
>>
Because they didn't want to age them and have them deviate from their existing iconic designs too much. Same reason why they pulled the bullshit excuse they did for the Eva pilots not aging in 3.33, or why the characters in the Atelier Arland/Dusk series barely aged from the first to third games despite them taking place over the course of 10-15 years.
>>
>>133925061

Will they still be voiced by women once their VAs retire?
>>
>>133925061
He's only in his early 40s and he keeps VERY in shape. Also he's asian.
>>
>>133925061

Krillin grew a BEAR?

Well that's one way to one up Goku
>>
>>133925061
>I wish for slow-acting eternal youth so no-one suspects a thing til it's too late

And then he stops shaving

>inb4 he was bald as a kid.

He obviously shaved his head as a kid
>>
>>133925061
He's in his late 30's. And he still trains. So it makes sense he looks young.
>>
>>133925061
Toriyama doesn't like making them old.
>>
You'd look young too if you spent every single night having furious passionate sex with your robot waifu.
>>
If you do the math Krillin is still in his early 30s. And he was never bald, he just shaved, so it's not a miracle that his hair came back when he stopped.
>>
>>133927873
How could he be in his early 30's when Gohan is at least 18?
>>
>>133927873
Kuririn has almost the same age as Goku, so 40-50 years old, if I remember correctly.

Why haven't Goten and Trunks grown up at all?
>>
>>133930608
Because saiyans don't get notably different until after they're 15. Goku looked pretty much the same 15 as he was when he was 12.
>>
He is Asian
>>
Do I seriously have to be the one to point out his shirt says tacos?
>>
>>133930803
Gohan did though. Was he just the exception?
>>
>>133931428
He's a hybrid. Also, Gohan was pushed to the limit whilte Goten and Trunks live on a more peaceful enviroment
>>
>>133930803
DBS is set 4-5 years after the end of Z. Trunks was 8 at the end of Z making him 12-13 in the current timeline, and still looks the same as he did at the end of Z. For reference, Future Trunks from the alternative timeline was 13 during the History of Trunks special, where he actually looked 13. Say what you will about people growing up at different speeds and times, under different nurture etc, but it seems more to me like an oversight in the character design
>>
>>133928487
Gohan was born basically right after goku and Chi-chi got together. Gohan was about 4 and krillin would've been in his early 20s. So let's add 10 + years to that and make Gohan 18 and Krillin would be, around 38 or so.
>>
>>133931537
>yfw goku is only 12 years older than his son.

fucking reviving man.
>>
>>133931629
He's also now 8 years younger than his wife. Chi-chi gets to have a sexy young husband for a while. Especially since saiyans age like wine.
>>
>>133931467
>He's a hybrid
So are Goten and trunks.
>>
>>133931533
DBS starts 6 months after the defeat of Buu and has a lot of intermediate timeskips. But let's all be honest with ourselves. I don't think Toriyama ever pays attention to how old his characters are. Time is just a storytelling device for him.
>>
He secretly gathered the Dragon Balls and wished for eternal youth.

Probably did it between the Cell games and the Buu saga.

I know that people don't like the dubs, but the Son family Japanese VA is just awful.
>>
>>133925061
Speaking of characters staying young, is Piccolo immortal in the same way that Roshi is? Because he inherited King Piccolo's eternal youth, and Namekians only start to get old after living for hundreds of years.
>>

Don't choke on your burger there, Captain America.

>>133932996
It's fine for kid Goku, but it just seems weird on adults Goku and Gohan.

>>133925061
He's like what, somewhere around 45? He also does healthy stuff and his never aging gf keeps him young too, it's ok for him to look like he does.

Even though GT is not canon if you think about it she got SS and young dick all the way up until death.

Piccolo is not immortal, but Namekians age very slowly seeing that King Piccolo was 292 years olds when he died.

Also Krillin confirmed for being more relevant than fucking Gohan. Krillin is literally leading the attack on Frieza and is the focal point of this entire scene. When the big bad directly calls for Krillin's head instead of Gohan, you know that even the creator of Dragon Ball doesn't give two fucks about Gohan.

Revy was called Levy in the official manga localization

Runge was Lunge in the official Monster translation

I read the manga and I'm aware that both Kuririn and Kulilin are used at different points. If you want to be supremely correct you should say Kurilin, but if you're a native English speaker and don't want to sound like a retard you should use Krillin.

it's just that weeaboos are too cringy to let alone. they genuinely think a plagiarizing composer and strong, muscular men that fight all day with squeaky voice actresses doing their voices is superior. they do not realize Japs ruined the potential the series had after Dragonball. even so, those plagiarized tracks are still catchy.

Is this why spics love DBZ so much? When I went to Mexico they had shitty souvenir shops selling the weirdest assortments of statues of fictional figures. It was pretty much superman, batman, predator and goku.

You'd think that Roshi would show these fuckers where the fountain of youth he drank from is.

Like seriously- Roshi drank from the fountain of youth. Not Korin's fake-ass water but the real thing.

DBZ and Saint Seiya where a bit hit in most spic countries in the 90's when they were aired.
Plus they were aired on
Those kids grew and some of them have kids now and introduced them to those anime too.

Bitch please Bulma up until her awful GT version has always been my waifu. How Vegeta has not had more than one or possibly two kids is beyond me. If I were Vegeta I would have already repopulated the Saiyan race with Bulma alone.

I only ever saw the Toonami dub.

What did they change in the Saiyan and Frieza sagas?

Roshi drank an immortality elixer. The English dub called it the fountain of youth. He had access to the immortal phoenix at one point but it died of food poisonin.

It's not that I don't think Super Bulma is hot. It's that I think that a 10-15 years younger Toriyama would probably draw her better.
