Why? :(
Chi Chi had some good character development in the Buu arc when Gohan realized that since Goku died, she was taking things easier on Goten, and she even allowed Gohan to train for the Tournament, and of course Toei ignores that and regresses her to how she was before because it's "what she's known for". :roll:

Only God knows how f--kin' good would be a Cell saga - Gohan type of importance for Goten. I mean: now we have a Trunks centric saga, and even the kid one is on the spotlight for obvious reasons, what if the next saga is Goten and Gohan centric? I think I could die in joy :shock: :D
That sure would be awesome! :thumbup:

Chi-Chi lied about spending all of the money to encourage Goku's work. She used those same funds to repair their house after Goku contracted Delayed Onset Turbulent Ki Syndrome. Goten's education was established.
Oh right I forgot about that, cheers man

You clearly state she became that way because Goku was gone. Well he's here now. Why shouldn't she regress?

I made a bet with Alee9977 that Vegeta won't be beaten quickly by an opponent. If I lose, I switch my avatar to Vegeta getting beat by hit. If I win, he switches it to Vegeta holding Black by his hair. This will last a month.

Goten turning out to be Goku Black is something I've been really hoping for considering we've yet to see an encounter between him and Future Trunks.

She made a deal with Toei to make sure main focus stays on Goku and Vegeta. :P

To be honest though we could find plenty reasons why she shouldn't regress, it literally took hundreds of episodes for her to stop being so "Einstein-obssesed" and seing her back at this state is kinda annoying, not because of her character, but because of the impact she has on Goten.

I've given up hope for Goten to have a huge moment anymore. Chi-Chi regressed from her Buu self sadly and her negative qualities are affecting Goten now :(
At this point I just want to see him actually look his age (which is 13) either that or just give him screen time during EOZ(??) as a Super Saiyan. Love that hairstyle on him

Unless it's true. :P
But yeah, I'm so hyped. I'm more excited for Black's reveal than the end of the arc at this point.

No not all. Goten theory was baseless and wasn't hinted at, at all.

I'm a gohan fan through and through, but as a fan i want to ask people that are other fellow gohan fans; do you really want gohan to come back with this crappy dbs artwork? with these ridiculously unbalanced and all over the place power levels? i mean from what i see, trunks in ssj2 is strong as ssj blue goku and vegeta maybe stronger? The show just has gone so far to try and sweep gohan and other characters that are and would have been good additions to the show and made it more successful, it would just look weird for them to come back now; and knowing how all post-dbz animes or movies have been made with the Goku stealing the show deal, even if the people that should be way stronger than goku were way stronger than him, he would some how steal the show with the victory or a huge influence on the reason that the enemy was defeated.

I as a gohan fan am willing to let him go.

But these problems also concerns every other character of the show lol
Also not all dbs artworks are crappy and some are even pretty good IMO, but the ones that are messed up really are lol

after RoF it was real easy to reconduct Gohan towards martial arts so he can be able to protect his family as he said he wanted to, him backing off for the UE6 tournament was the thing that actually looked weird lol

Denying that Goten is Goku Black, is like dismissing that present trunks is future trunks lol.

People just can't seem to get over that the writers discarded Goten just like they did Gohan. Cause they did. He's not coming back in any meaningful way at least not this arc
