How long do saiyans live? I always assumed they lived around 200 years, but this makes it seem like they might live even 1000 years
>>135676989
Doesn't matter
None of this matters
>>135676989
they have human age span, they stay in their prime longer, but once they hit a certain age, they age really quickly
>Vegeta is actually in his mid 50s at this point
man, I was always forget he's a decade older than Goku because he's such a manlet
>>135678498
So basically, asians?
>>135678576
He's only five years older than Goku. It's just that Goku was dead for seven years.
>>135676989
>Oh it's another retcon
Toriyama can't find a decent way to keep exploiting his characters
>>135678642
Was he really only five? I assumed he was at least 10 when Freeza blew up planet Vegeta
>>135678582
yes
>>135678667
The dubs fuck up the ages a lot, especially on Gohan, but in the original manga, Vegeta was five when his homeworld blew up.
>>135678863
>especially on Gohan
he was 11 when he defeated cell
>four and a half when raditz shows up
>1 year passes, 5 and a half against saiyans
>Goku is in space after Namek for about a year, making him around six and a half
>three years pass, nine and a half when Androids show up
>Two years in RoSaT
so he's physically 11 years old
>>135678498
THIS
It's not that Saiyans live drastically longer, it's that they stay in their prime for longer because they're ''bred for battle''. Goku looks the same as he did fighting Frieza as he does fighting Uub.
I reckon, at around 95, Saiyans start to age. Kind of like the growth spurt you have as a teenager... but just a depressing opposite.
>>135678963
Gohan spent less than a year in RoSaT.
Was it actually ever explained how long the lifespan of Saiyans is?
I don't recall there being an actual explanation for it, unless it was in the manga.
>>135676989
Why is vegeta such an edgelord.
>>135678863
Vegeta's age isn't mentioned anywhere in the manga. As far as I remember, Vegeta's childhood was only talked about on one page.
Long enough for Toriyama to milk it until he dies, and Toei to take over after.
>Bulmas tits have begun to sag.
>>135676989
How does Goku know that exactly? The only knowledge of Saiyans as race he has is from things Vegeta and Raditz told him no?
Also why are they wearing gloves?
>>135676989
like 300 years
Goku and Vegeta are now actual gods though, so they won't die of age.
>>135684793
It's not like dying means anything anyway
>>135678109
This. Why are people still seriously discussing the plot of DB when it's been raped to hell and back with all the retcons?
>>135684018
He is pals with several gods, and has repeatedly met the one in charge of dead mortals.
Presumably one of them could give him a time frame.
>>135684918
Same reason people talk about other flawed stories.
It had some strong impact on their life despite its flaws.
