Well, earlier this week someone ask if Trunks was mentally stable.
...well, I going throw some shit right now as well

......, and I know this maybe opinion wise,
But .....
Do you think Trunks will be OK in the future? Expressly without his family?

Personally, I think Future Trunks was never mentally stable.

Future Trunks does have his family. At least, he has Bulma, who is pretty much the only family he'd ever had. And she seemed to be much more mature than her normal-timeline version too.

Anime Trunks is fighting repressed memories, but still sane. Like Lex Luthor in last week's Smallville!

Manga Trunks is both stable and badass. Like Lex Luthor at the END of last week's Smallville!
Watch Smallville this week be a battle like that of between Goku+Trunks! You k'now: a battle between two super-powerful warriors, one of which was sent to Earth before his home planet blew up and the other with the same powers and a nifty sword.

Trunks will be fine, though I suspect he'll be extremly protective of his mother and the Earth in general.
Although I do suspect there will be a part of him that will miss the thrill of constant battle. I mean unlike any other half breed Saiyan, he was born into war (well, more or less), he's never really had any break in the action and although his life has been hell, there's a chance with the threat of the Androids and Cell gone, his life might start to feel mundane.
And yeah, Mirai Trunks is a kickass character.

I'm sure he will have plenty of action once Babidi comes to Earth to find Majin Boo, and he'll certainly have his hands full since he's Earth's only protector.

No.. If that was gonna happen, it'd've happened long ago. In the main timeline, Trunks was only 8.

Several of things could have changed that though B-kun. The Androids could have killed Bobidi before he unleashed Buu, or Bobidi could have seen what was happening on Earth and decided to stay away until safe.

Then Trunks would see his ship coming down and, in his growing insanity-driven paranoia, blow up his ship.

Xyex, it's spelt "Babidi". I especially hate that spelling mistake because it could easily be "Babidi" or "Bibidi", so it's confusing. Garrg. If you had just said something like "I HATE BOBIDI!" I would have no idea what you were talking about.

Eh, I always follow the Cinderella spelling for his name. Bibidi-bobidi-boo. Of course, I perfer Buu over Boo, but whatever.

I don't think so... I believe it was Bobidi... I don't feel like looking right now though.

I doubt either of those would've happened; the Artificial Humans weren't strong enough to defeat Dabura, so Babidi wouldn't be killed or scared away. It is possible that Babidi retrieved Boo's egg and simply left, deciding that Earth no longer had enough living people to revive him with.

Who says they even met Dabura? 17 and 18 could have seen the ship landing and just blown it up. Bobidi would have died while Dabura would have stayed alive, been freed from Bobidi's magic, and left.
Anway, how is his name pronoucned, Bab or Bob? That'll tell us the right spelling.

Well, I talked with Random over AIM about this, and she said how the phrase is in Cinderella. "Bippety, boppity, boo". I'd say DBZ was dead wrong, but the spelling doesn't matter anyway. These names are simply puns and nothing more. But I'm gonna stick with Babidi since that's closer to how it's pronounced and I'm too used to it anyway.
My god, this is feeling like the Shaoran/Syaoran debate..

Spelled "Babidi," which (when pronounced correctly) sounds like the lax American pronunciation of "Bobbity" from "Bibbity, Bobbity, Boo."
So there.

Then why isn't your name pronounced "Zi-ex"?
