Your ship is your ship, there's no need to justify. And your ship is not problematic (like incest, etc) so it's safe
And Goku is one of the most paired Dragon Ball characters in shipping, despite the popular headcanon that he's asexual (he's incredibly good looking, he matches with anyone).
I have a new ship that I think it's cute: Raditz and Suno. IDK but Raditz Knew his mom and lived for a time with her, so he could apreciate women who shares some characteristcs his mother has. And Suno is the only one who's as sweet as Gine in Dragon Ball, besides blue haired Lunch. I don't think he'd like fiery and strong willed woman like the other saiyans do. It's a shame he's dead...
But I can see Raditz into men too, I just still don't have a yaoi ship for him. Maybe Yamcha?... Nah, I don't think Yamcha's gay.
Or Vegeta and him could've had an affair in the past but that stayed in the past because Vegeta and Bulma are unbreakable to me. The prince and the third class (who's not Kakarot) sounds good to me.
Re: The shipping thread
Ha ha, thanks a lot! To tell the truth, "Makafushigi Adventure" actually has a lot of errors and canon inconsistencies, and I'm surprised it holds up as well as it does. But I wrote it not only because I couldn't find many Goku/Bulma stories in 2001, but because there was barely any DBZ stories that referenced the original Dragon Ball, where he used Nyoibo and met old characters again . I wanted to write a robust adventure/romance story with Goku and Bulma, and I'm so glad people remember it fondly.Dbzfan94 wrote:This was the first fanfic I ever read. I loved it.

Re: The shipping thread
Oddly, while I'm a big fan of shipping in general (not like bickering with people over who ends up with who, but just the concept of 'these characters are totally cute and I think they'd work well together, let's hope that's how it plays out'), but really, I don't have too awful many Dragon Ball ones, mostly because...well, most of our main characters already are in established relationships, and have been since before the time I was even a fan! So generally I just kind of roll with the pairings without really thinking about them too much, in comparison to other franchises.
That said though, I can think of a few (both canon and fan-wishing, or even alternate reality situations) that I definitely enjoy. Ships like...
Kuririn x Android 18 (Canon, obviously, but ridiculously adorable)
Gohan x Videl (See above)
Trunks x Mai (They've become quite adorable together in recent stuff, and the hilarious awkwardness of it all just makes it too great)
Goku x Bulma (I'd like to think in an alternate situation, this would have worked just as well as him with Chi Chi, if not better)
Goku x Snow (See above)
Goten x Marron (Something about a descendant of Goku and a descendant of Kuririn making their families actually related is pretty sweet to me)
Oob x Pan (Likewise, the idea of Goku's student and his granddaughter becoming a couple in the future also pulls at my heartstrings)
...And that's about it, I guess. One of my fic ideas (out of way too many) does feature the idea of Kuririn x Snow, but only because they meet in said alternate version, so I can't really 'ship' it very well beyond that. Kinda wish there was someone I could see Yamcha with, but nobody has really come to mind.

Its a crack pairing, but it one that actually appeared in a official DB product. Even I was not sold on it, but now I've warmed to it.
As for Suno, I would like to see her and Upa hook up.

Re: The shipping thread
I’d like that Raditz gets redemption arc, Just why couldn’t he be alive like the others who were ex-villains? It’s not fair! The games makes him so interesting, they bring the insecurity side of him and that makes sense because he grew up alongside two powerful warriors and he’s the weakest of them.ShadowBardock89 wrote:About that....mabalia wrote:

But I don’t want him with Princess Snake, she’s evil, she’d try to eat and kill him.

Re: The shipping thread
I know, right? Without the games I probably wouldn't give a shit, but with them they make him so sympathetic. Sorta makes me wish we could see him again and see more of the side of him that just wants his brother. He seems prime for a redemption arc even though it's only because of the games.mabalia wrote:

Re: The shipping thread
I like all the canon ships, so I'm going to list non-canon ships that I'm also a fan of, to a degree...
Goku x Bulma (best friends becoming lovers makes for a good story)
Goku x Vados (imagine how crazy powerful their kid would be)
Future Gohan x Future Bulma (a lonely widow, her best friend's adult son, a desolate, war torn world... it could happen)
Goten x Marron (this needs to happen)
Yamcha x Maron (the poor guy's been shit on enough, let him have something good for a change)
Gohan x Android 18 (makes sense)
Videl x Erasa (giggity)
Goku x Bulma (best friends becoming lovers makes for a good story)

Re: The shipping thread
Now about Aus, I find them interesting especially when I want pairings with characters that have an established romantic relationship in Canon (but the Canon couples will always be my favorites).
I can see Vegeta and Kakarot together if they lived on Planet Vegeta, especially when the third class Kakarot proves his worthy as a warrior (he’d be the first to reach super saiyan form). In my headcanon saiyans are very liberal in regards of relationships (mostly are very casual and not intense), but like Vegeta is a Prince he still have to choose a saiyan woman to bring to the world his heir (And it could be nice to see Kakarot jealous for the first time).
A warrior that is powerful is more admired and respected. This could be the base of their bond and closeness.
If a character like Vegeta can go from not caring to save Bulma and baby Trunks in the androids arc to one of the best dad 2017, and a character like Picolo who kidnapped a 4 years old boy and put him a year later in war zone and now is the best nanny 2017, Raditz could easily get a redemption arc.
And I like how the games portray him, he's insecure deep inside, all he needs is love and sweet Suno is just perfect for him.

Re: The shipping thread
Yes, but why do that with EVERY character? I like those things as well, but ideally the characters should be different. Vegeta was redeemed, so was Piccolo, so why go that route yet again?I respect your opinion but obviously I prefer mine.

Re: The shipping thread
Abbed, my opinions matter to me, you shouldn't concern yourself about what I like or not. There are opinions in this thread that I disagree but I never understood why I should impose my way of thinking in a topic that fans are just having fun. I never said anything that you shouldn't enjoy the character Raditz anyway you want, I said that I respect your opinion, why couldn't you respect mine?ABED wrote:1 - It's an idea, what matters is execution.
