Ooohhhh, so that's where "ship" comes from, thought it was some weird joke about actualy ships that somehow became related to couples lol, thanks man.

Well, he thought it was food back then, so, yeah, he would.

Chances are if Krillin asked Goku now, he would be okay with it anyways :lol: .

I don't like ships because of the uncanny valley implications it gives of, especially at the age differences between characters like GokuxCaulifla or BrolyxKale etc.

Whenever new female fighters appear, they get shipped with Goku or Vegeta.

It got stronger with the arrival of the first canon female Saiyans.

Hardly anything new, really.

tarble was the age of goku despite looking younger
gine, is seen to be the same age as caulifla but it should be higher or not?

neither caulifla nor kale have an age confirmed only that some suppose it.

That's because Goku and Vegeta marrying warrior women makes much more sense than marrying a scientist and a housewife.

True enough it does make more sense, but I still like their marriages.

GokuxCaulifla is one of those things that only makes sense until you think about it. I mean, if you can look past the age difference and Kale being first in line.

That relationship starts strong and lasts up until the first evening when they get home from a rousing training sessions and Goku asks her to cook dinner. He needs a housewife and Caulifla wouldn't take that shit. Goku and Chi Chi make more sense because they're pretty much co-dependent. She does the cooking/cleaning/looking after the kids, he does menial labour and food-gathering when she can persuade him to. It ain't progressive, there's no passion, they're a rural couple, plain and simple.

Goku and Bulma would have make so much sense, then Yamcha and Chichi; Tenshinhan Lunch, after that if Lanfan got stuck in the Z-Team why pair her with Vegeta and then lastly Kuririn and Android 18. All of those peoples would have offspring.

Goku and Chi Chi work well because they compliment each other. Chi Chi is essentially what Goku needs in a wife.

because Kid Goku did not hunt animals and eat them

Goku spent most of his marriage dead but even so chichi did not need to goku, (because he did not work) leaved ahead thanks to Ox-King

goku I do not need chichi because had kaiosama to feed him for 7 years lol

that is clear I like chichi but she was created to be the mother of gohan and maintain order in the home but their relationship with goku is almost nonexistent
--------

vegeta and bulma works because they love each other and they have shown them many times
without her, vegeta would return to her loneliness in addition to goku she was the only person who approached he.
bulma support with their machines helps them improve .. their "relationship" is better working and they depend on each other for that reason there are few "ships" with vegeta, is with the right woman.


----------
goku with caulifla both have the love for the fight that's why they met
they could help each other improve as they did in the tournament and they would not have to force themselves to do something that they are not because both are saiyan warriors

although I rarely think that the "ship" works with goku this time I think it could work with her

Goku doesn't need Chi-Chi to get food (he could always hunt for it like did as a kid or just steal from stores). Hell, he doesn't need Chi-Chi at all and seems perfectly content with being single.

The shared interest in fighting is the biggest reason why Caulifla is better match for Goku than Chi-Chi. Plus, we have no confirmation on how old the 3 U6 Saiyans exactly are (for all we know they could be around the same age as Goku, like Tarble is)

Its a matter of opinion whether or not the relationship between Goku and Chi Chi is nonexistent. I've seen moments of it.

No GokuXCaulifla doesn't work since she will not take care of Goten or children to begin with, do housework or pressure Goku to actually work/provide for his family and do you honestly think Caulifla is the type of person who cooks for Goku? This is just wishfullfilment ignoring the obvious age gap of her calling him "old man"

kaiosama provides food to goku

piccolo takes care of the sons of goku ...

that does not make them have a relationship ..

Goku hates to work ... already spent more time training and away from his family than the little time he has been cultivating that is basically the illusion of a relationship in comparison to other characters in the same series that have a much better relationship developed than them
different modes of parenting taking into account that they would not have to take Earthling customs if neither they nor their hypothetical children are, also they themselves survived without having known parents but they managed to get ahead
her calling him "old man" is basically a sign of rebellion on the part of she can make an age difference? yes, but there is nothing that says that it is too much taking into account that his brother renso seems to be older than goku and for the same tarble is the age of goku

he only clarified that it's okay if they like the relationship of goku and chichi each one is in his right but ... at least for me it does not seem to work

Leeching of others for food or to take care of your children is not a healthy relationship, GokuXCaulifla does not work in context to the show, the only thing they share in common is their lust for battle or hunger for food which all saiyans have, at that point it is as ridiculous as GokuXBroly etc.

Chi Chi went the extra mile to get her children education and a healthy lifestyle which Goku does not care about, she is a good mother in the context of being parents. I'm sorry Caulifla doesn't work in my eyes, its as ridiculous as KaleXBroly

does not have to loot food you will remember that goku as a child survives hunting animals and goku cooked them, I never need anything else because that this provides the nature.
nobody denies that chichi was a good mother I am aware of that, since it was created to this basically kept an order in the home and an earthling, environment but that was also what their children wanted as they act more like earthlings, has nothing to do with keep a relationship of a couple which as I said does not work if they can be away for years if seen and none is needed.
goku is selfish the same admitted, the prefer to be away from his family and a peaceful life of a normal human to continue his training and become stronger the only way to maintain a relationship without moving away is to have a partner who has his same love for the fights that the but at the same time is a good person and does not force him to do something that he is not or that he leaves the martial arts
I can not think of anyone else, I rarely think that a ship with goku works but this seems a valid option
I do not like the broly x kale lol first of all the first one is an evil killer with mental traumas and kale is a shy girl who does not control her own hidden power seems a bad example

Really any saiyanXGoku works by this logic since all of them have a love for battle, again Caulifla is not unique in that regard. I heavily disagree that Goku would stoop willingly for a partner unless he/she tricks him like Chi Chi did.

Its just wish fulfillment and the age gap is present, again if Goku really needed a fighting partner he literally could have picked any other saiyan
