Ok that's my porblem :lol:.

Anyways to actually take the topic back to the actual topic at hand. Anyone think this is just an oversight, or are they really trying to tell us he always had blue hair. Kinda like how Tights just showed up out of nowhere, and we're supposed to just go with it.

Eh either way it's stupid. Either an oopsy in dialogue or something nobody would actually buy for a minute. But I like the crazy theory of Bulma can see the future. That's so Bulma.

No it is a recton... Nothing more.

Stupid it is... But damn it is just a color. Same as Vegeta's hair at the beginning of Z/manga was brown

I mean, no one questions Bulma's hair change. Unless she hair dyes, that is. I gave up trying to make sense out of it and it doesn't really bother me.

Would've made sense if Bulma just asked "Is there a young man in there?" as opposed to "Is there a blue-haired young man in there?"

I see it as the first. Especially since in other promotion we still have a purple Trunks. Easier to see a dialogue flub then several promotion errors.

Don't recall the manga having a brown Vegeta.

Because Bulma changes her hair as if it were her wardrobe. Also a big difference when she hasn't seen the future son in years.

I agree it'd make more sense to say that.

It was a rhetoric question, that's why she mentioned the color. She obviously knew it was Trunks.

I think that we shouldn't care that much about that, it's just hair colour, it's not like idk, like if Trunks had a tail or something like that.
I really miss ma boy, Black :( :cry:

Lazy retcon, nothing new in this series that is rife with it.

I like smart quotes.
I learned english listening to songs. So I don't know anything about. The day you had to learn play piano by just listening .mp3, you'll understand.

I am so tired of hearing because Dragonball is a cartoon, or is a show for kids, that a lack of consistency or errors are okay-You pull that color change crap on MLP and Steven Universe and there would be riots in the streets. You best believe cartoons are serious business!

It is a show for children allright... but yeah, the hair bugs me a little, but mostly for nostalgia. It is so weird to see him with blue hair, but well, it can be just a pallete swap.
Goku is tanned like he was lying in solar booth for a week in GT as well.

Have you not seen this forum and the internet. Cartoons are serious business. We'll yell and get pissy at power levels, and also whine and complain to others about canon. Grown adults taking a children's cartoon too seriously is the norm here.

Some good edits of purple-haired Trunks by ramenuzumaki on Tumblr.

I would guess that they were thinking of blue and green, since the existence of a dedicated word for the color green is a relatively recent addition to the Japanese language.

It should not be, and this is unacceptable. Your posts have contributed to this.

Do not be this person with this attitude and this tone and posting this content. Enough is enough.
