Goku has been getting shipped a lot lately.

Re: Goku has been getting shipped a lot lately.
Except there's nothing saying that Caulifla is even 18 years old, outside of her brother looking kind of old (but look at Gohan and Goten's age difference of 11 years, and its not unheard of for some siblings in real life to be over 20 years apart).TheUltimateNinja wrote:Age doesn't matter as long as they're both consenting adults.Jackalope89 wrote:Oh, I've seen quite a few GokuxCaulifla shippers out there.

None of them struck me that way. They'd need to be able to have good rapport with Goku in a way that so far I haven't really seen in the new ToP characters (Jiren is so disinterested in Goku has no chemistry with him and is so unappealing as a character imo. The new Uni 6 saiyans are too young for Goku: even if they time skipped to when they're adults, Caulifla sees him as more of a means to learn new power than a personal interest. Kale flat out doesn't like him.) Anyone else I could think of would be from another arc, not this one.

Re: Goku has been getting shipped a lot lately.
Their age difference is actually just 10 years. But setting that aside, Cabba's an elite solider so he's got to be 18+ and Caulifla should be around the same age.Jackalope89 wrote:Except there's nothing saying that Caulifla is even 18 years old, outside of her brother looking kind of old (but look at Gohan and Goten's age difference of 11 years, and its not unheard of for some siblings in real life to be over 20 years apart).TheUltimateNinja wrote:Age doesn't matter as long as they're both consenting adults.Jackalope89 wrote: Oh, I've seen quite a few GokuxCaulifla shippers out there.

Re: Goku has been getting shipped a lot lately.
Applying our world logic yeah he should be above 18+ but he is a saiyan. Even though the saiyans of universe 6 are said to be heroes of it doesn't change the fact that they are a warrior race. When Vegeta was around Trunks age he was already being sent to distant planets to conquer them. Now does this doesn't necessarily mean he not 18+ but theirs still a pretty good chance he is younger and in turn Kale and Caulifla are too.TheUltimateNinja wrote:Their age difference is actually just 10 years.

Re: Goku has been getting shipped a lot lately.
1) I don't think Goku should be with Helles. As it is curious the female God of Destruction was never called a Goddess of Destruction in both canons.Khandom101 wrote:Like serioulsy, he has been getting shipped with
1. Helles
2. Vados
3. Freeza ( quite surprised actually )
4. Caulifla
5. kale ( to a degree)
6. Last but not least Android 18 (as of current)
You know Chi Chi is despised by the fandom when Goku has been getting shipped to such an huge extent. please share your thought and opinions
2) Vados is also not a wise choice, as the so-called Angel is basically if Future Android 18 was born as a God-like harbinger of death and destruction.
3) Why would Goku want to be with Frieza? Goku and Frieza hate each other even more than fans of the Dragon Ball Franchise hate Dragon Ball Super.
4) Caulifla would not be a good influence on Goku. (Period.) Having her be his wife in place of Chi-Chi, and in turn becoming the mother of Gohan and Goten, would have doomed the entire timeline. As both Gohan and Goten would have inherited her cockiness and brashness, traits which lead to Caulifla and the rest of Universe being wiped out.
5) Goku and Kale is the only hypothetical couple I would ship. As if they had met when they were kids, or even as teenagers, both of the Saiyans would have been stronger in more ways than one.
6) While Goku would have no problems with her, Android 18 would. As I doubt she would have the willpower to constantly ignore one of the 2 reasons she was turned into a Cybernetic Human 24/7.
Re: Goku has been getting shipped a lot lately.
You shouldn't be surprised. Goku is one of the most widely shipped males in Anime since the 90s, both East and West. Personally, I think Goku x Caulifila can work since they are alternative universe counterparts. Goku x Vados would be interesting as well.I don't hate Chichi by the way, she gets way more hate than she deserves.

Re: Goku has been getting shipped a lot lately.
You would be the exception. 9 times out of 10, most people that ship Goku with someone (in OR out of the DB franchise) do it because they have an unreasonable hatred of Chichi. To the point where they mix fanon with canon. A lot.kn83 wrote:You shouldn't be surprised. Goku is one of the most widely shipped males in Anime since the 90s, both East and West.

Re: Goku has been getting shipped a lot lately.
I've never understood the amount of hate Chichi gets from the American fandom (there's plenty of pro-Chichi fanart in Japan however) to the point were they falsely blame her for "ruining" GohanJackalope89 wrote:You would be the exception. 9 times out of 10, most people that ship Goku with someone (in OR out of the DB franchise) do it because they have an unreasonable hatred of Chichi.

Re: Goku has been getting shipped a lot lately.
Clownhan only has himself to blame. I do think there's several women who'd make better partners for Goku than Chichi though.kn83 wrote:I've never understood the amount of hate Chichi gets from the American fandom (there's plenty of pro-Chichi fanart in Japan however) to the point were they falsely blame her for "ruining" GohanJackalope89 wrote:You would be the exception. 9 times out of 10, most people that ship Goku with someone (in OR out of the DB franchise) do it because they have an unreasonable hatred of Chichi.

is the example of tarble the brother of vegeta looks very young but should be the same age as goku for obvious reasonsTheUltimateNinja wrote: In the end it's all speculation until Shueisha gives us confirmation.
While I do not hate chichi, I have to accept that the relationship she have with Goku is really very uninteresting and even non-existent to the point that if you take it off now it would not change anything, the case is different with bulma and vegeta that show more of their relationship. they support each other and care about each otherJackalope89 wrote: You would be the exception. 9 times out of 10, most people that ship Goku with someone (in OR out of the DB franchise) do it because they have an unreasonable hatred of Chichi.

it's not the character's fault but that was not worked very well compared to other
Re: Goku has been getting shipped a lot lately.
I personally think that Goku and Chi Chi are the best for each other. I'm not interested in shipping Goku with others.

Re: Goku has been getting shipped a lot lately.
Can someone explain to me what "shipped" is supposed to mean in this context? I have no idea what people are talking about. I would imagine it has some romantic connotation but that's about it.

Re: Goku has been getting shipped a lot lately.
To be honest, Goku x Caulifla makes much more sense than Goku x Chichi lol.
Chichi is clearly miserable being in a loveless, sexless marriage with Goku. Caulfila has much more in common with Goku than Chichi does.

Goku’s like super asexual. Like I bet if Krillin asked Goku to marry him before Chi Chi Goku would be like “Sure why not”
