Would you like Future Trunks to return in DBS?

No fictional character's story is "over" unless the author wants it to be over. If Toriyama or Toei decide to come up with new ideas for Future Trunks, then his story won't be over.

Like I said before, if they want to use the character, and they've got some idea of what to do with him, go for it. As it stands, Trunks after the Cell Arc is essentially a blank slate, so they can do whatever they want with the guy.

Well, yeah, but that doesn't mean that it would be a good idea.

It depends entirely on the execution. Goku's story after the 23rd Budokai was as "over" as Trunks', but Toriyama ended up writing more.

I hope not. Future Trunks was great but his history is finished.

None of those characters make any sense in that timeline since Gohan and Vegeta are dead in the future timeline, and Buu was never revived and killed.

If Bra is anything like she is in EoZ or GT, that character shouldn't exist.
What is wrong with Bra in EoZ? I don't recall her doing anything objectionable, or much of anything other than cheer people on.

Create new timeline of course from the original future timeline.

My point stands -- these characters cannot exist in the original future timeline no matter where you create a new timeline at that point -- Pan, Bra and Uub won't exist in that timeline.

They could come from the future of the *present* timeline, sure. But it seems like a repeat plot, to me.

Make it the future warrior if not stronger at least very relevant. Make the opponent has anti saiyan weapon so the other people can take time to shine much more. Alter reality dimension that make saiyan cannot transform or mind controlling saiyan people. The more blood they have the easier to get controlled too .

The people in charge of DBS are incompetent. They'd butcher Future Trunks so, no, I'd rather not have him return.

This is true.... at least for the anime.

Also, Future Trunks has no reason to return so him coming back for DBS would be bad fanservice.

No. He'd just be a gag character like Vegeta and ruin his image. Super and GT need to switch fan hatred soon,as it's becoming a chore at this point. If he's done right that'd be good, but I personally don't have faith in Toei myself in them doing Trunks,even if Toiryama himself did it....not sure he knows trunks at this point or cares.

Evening lads, second post haha.

I wouldn't agree with future Trunks returning in Super, however I think it would be cool if one of Champa Sama's warriors from Uni 6 is an adult Saiyan Trunks that ends up fighting our Uni 7 Vegeta

.

-Cheers!

By that logic, Bulma shouldn't return to the story after the first story arc. Bulma's goal was to find the Dragon Balls and wish for a boyfriend, and she eventually did find a boyfriend without the need of the DBs.

Not really a fair comparison. Blooma didn't come from a different timeline with one clear purpose. She was still around after she left with Yamcha, and she really hadn't been gone that long when she reappeared. Trunks was brought into the series for one purpose and wasn't meant to be brought back, and bringing him back would only take away from his character, in my opinion.

+1 for no more Future Trunks. He's a great character but as many have stated, his story is completed.
I'd like for the young Trunks to keep growing instead and get to the "History of Trunks" Trunks age.

Basaku · Post by **Basaku** » Thu Dec 10, 2015 10:27 pm

No. I loved him and he was one of the best characters in the franchise, but they should focus on developing the existing Trunks and grow him and Goten already. It'sgetting beyond silly how they're still potato size

I love Future Trunks but they really need to work on the current version of Trunks who still looks so small even though we're well past the end of the Buu saga by now. Why does he still look the same as he did then?

same as how a 12 year old Goku still looks like a 6 year old.

I really enjoy the concept of Future Trunks. I would like his return but maybe not in the conventional way of the universe 6 vs 7 arc. maybe he can return as a a omen for some kind of new villian that has decimated his universe and needs the help of the Z fighters once again or something. I would love for him to be introduced again as a homage to the android saga. Even though it may seem as a repeat but i love nostalgia(for example in the last episode of Super with piccolo saving Gohan. it brought damn tears to my eyes that piccolo truly sees him as like a son after all these years) or maybe he just comes back to visit and just trains current Trunks and/or Goten to reach new levels. I think Future Trunks could play a good role in the series if done right. However i doubt if he will return as some U6 comabinate as i believe just because it is a parallel reality not a timeline difference because it would mean that universe would father into the timeline as U7 is since Trunks comes a future timeline. I welcome Future Trunks return if it could mean something to the plot, for example a being who consumes universes(which would make it multi-universal threat) took over his and recruits the help of the Z fighters. But i doubt something like this would happen

I agree with that, but at the same time I'm still morbidly curious as to how it would turn out.

Yet tween/teen Future Trunks doesn't look like 6 year old Goku, neither does tween/teen Gohan at any point after Saiyan Saga, neither do tween/teen Pan & Bra (designed by Toriyama himself). Goku excuse doesn't work when entire DBZ showed growth of human and saiyan-human hybrid children to be completly different to Goku
