Since Mai and Trunks are being shipped
They might as well ship Goten and Marron? She needs to be aged up anyway.
Re: Since Mai and Trunks are being shipped
I forgot about both of those characters existences. But at this point, why the hell not.

Re: Since Mai and Trunks are being shipped
I'd be fine with that. It'd be kind of cute to have a son of Goku with the daughter of his longtime friend Kuririn. That and they have had a nice handful of really adorable scenes of Goten playing with her in Super so far.
I may or may not be biased in this regard though since I do kind of have them together in a fic.

I would've much rather had Goten be with Marron in GT than that other irrelevant girl he was with.Gyt Kaliba wrote:I may or may not be biased in this regard though since I do kind of have them together in a fic.

It'll probably happen since DBS has that modern anime approach. They shall be looooove.

Lol. Keep Goten with Valese. At least it brings in a new useless female.Lord Beerus wrote:Mai and Trunks, Goten and Marron... Man, the Dragon Ball fans at Fanfiction.net be like:
Re: Since Mai and Trunks are being shipped
Isn't Marron only a 3-4 age difference from Goten? That's not too bad at all.
Not as awful as those GT pairings where people paired Trunks with Pan. Goddamn thank god that's over.

Re: Since Mai and Trunks are being shipped
I wouldn't feel too bad about it - I don't think I ever really shipped those characters together, but I never had a problem with the ships back then either. Character ages and how long time skips were (particularly between Z and GT) were some of the most unclear, unreported things a lot of us ran into back in the early days of our fandom. Not sure if it was that way online even prior to the Toonami era of fandom, which I harken from, and it just persisted, or if it's something that set in after that, though.miguelnuva1 wrote:I'm not goibg to lie I use to ship Pan with Trunks and Goten with Bra then I found out the age difference was more then I thought.

Re: Since Mai and Trunks are being shipped
Eh, I'm not against Goten x Marron, but I sort of ship Goten x Valese way more, if I'm being honest.
Re: Since Mai and Trunks are being shipped
Yeah, I'm going to have to agree with most of what's already been said. Sure, they can pair up Goten and Marron, I wouldn't have a problem with that, but Goten x Valese in GT is just fine, and maybe even better than Goten x Marron. Introducing someone just to have her be a main character's love interest might be a little weird, but it can be done well (see Buu arc Videl). I'm sure they'd be able to write a canon Valese into the story in an okay way if they tried.
I'm not on the same page as you guys when it comes to Goten x Bulla, though. That ship always bothered me. Bulla was 8/9 in GT, so it's straight up paedophilia. Trunks x Pan has the exact same problem, since they're one year older than Goten and Bulla respectively. The only reason I'm fine with Trunks x Mai is that Mai has been wished young, and the wish seems to impact her personality, so she both acts and looks younger than she is (much like Marron erroneously does, coincidentally). And in the future they're both adults, so there it doesn't matter anyway.

Re: Since Mai and Trunks are being shipped
This. As I've also already said before, I don't have anything against Goten x Marron, but I see Goten x Valese working just as well, if not much more better than that. In the event that Valese is written into DBS' storyline, I can see her working as long as they implement her correctly. Honestly, I feel like her introduction in DBGT wasn't too bad. Could have been done a little better, but overall, I think Valese's introduction into DBGT was still pretty good by the show's standards, IMO. Maybe they shouldn't make her TOO ditzy, so as to relax the fanbase a it though. Still, I will say Valese, IMO, is LEAGUES better than Krillin's ex-girlfriend.Alruneia wrote:Yeah, I'm going to have to agree with most of what's already been said.

Also, I really do NOT see Goten x Bulla working out. Heck even I found Bulla's..."attire" in DBGT to be nothing short of VERY unfitting for her age. I won't lie, it even took me about 6-7 years before I learned that in DBGT, she's only 9-12 years old. For the record, I thought Bulla was like, 15-17 years old before I figured out the truth. It really would be straight up pedophilia at its greatest between them. Same goes for Trunks x Pan as well. Also, I agree with Alruneia about Trunks x Mai. There are a couple of circumstances which sort of make that ship not too unsettling.

Re: Since Mai and Trunks are being shipped
TrunksxPan and BraxGoten shippers are I'm sure imagining the ship happening taking place 10 years after GT.
I use to think Pan and Bra were 15 and 15 in Gt so I could see where others might not know their ages.

Adult Blue haired Future Trunks x Kid Mai is a thing in Japan.
Re: Since Mai and Trunks are being shipped
Look, I was 12 and Trunks didn't look that old, and I thought the idea of Vegeta's son getting with Gohans daughter would of been cool!precita wrote:

Also, one thing I realised. With all the complaints of Toriyama taking ideas from fanfiction, MaiXTrunks is the one thing no Fanfiction writer has ever touched!

Not everyday you see a love triangle develop between your future self, present self and a little girl with the mind of an adult woman.
