Grandma or Great Grandma Pan?

Post by dragonpearls » Sun Jan 09, 2005 3:54 pm

On the "DBGT TV Special synopsis" page, it said
"For the record, Pan is Goku Jr's great-great-grandmother."

Didn't the special said that it was just grandmother? I'm confused.

In the TV Special, she's only ever called "grandmother," but she clearly identifies herself as his "hiihiiba" (great-great-grandmother) to the Bulma-descendant lady in the final episode of GT. And then the announcer says he's the original's great-great-great-great grandson, which is the final nail in the coffin (to use a wholly inappropriate metaphor when dealing with the elderly).

To be honest, I think the end of GT ep64 and the special was a stupid idea. How the heck can both Goku and Vejiita jr go SSJ so easily if they're both 3 generations apart from Goten and Trunks?

1) Magic of genetics and/or because Toei says so..

2) What the hell does this have to do with the topic?
