After the 7 year gap that proceeds the Cell Games, how old are Goku, Chi-Chi, Gohan, and Goten, approximately?

[TheDevilsCorpse]

Goku: 37 (physically 30 because he was dead)
Gohan: 16 at the start, 17 by the 25th Budokai (plus roughly a year for RoSaT)
Goten: 7
Chi Chi: 37

[Fox666]

Gohan was 17 (physically 18), but at the beggining of the saga he is erroneously said to be 16. The Danzenshuu tries to give an explanation based on Gohan's birthday...

[Mystic Gohan]

I thought Gohan was stated to be 16 in the manga.

4 years old at the Beginning of Z

5 years old when the Saiyans come.

6 years old when Goku comes back from Yardrat

9 years old after the Android training.

10 years old physically after the rosat.

So 16 years old or 17 physically in the Buu arc.

[Fox666]

Two years passed beetween Namek and Goku returning from Yardrat.

[sonikku956]

Two years passed beetween Namek and Goku returning from Yardrat.

Uh, no. Two Namekian years, perhaps.

[Herms]

Uh, no. Two Namekian years, perhaps.

In the manga it's 1 year and 260 days. In the anime they say one year, but then later say Gohan turns 11 while training in the Room of Spirit and Time, which only works if around 2 years pass between Freeza's defeat and Trunks showing up.

Can't Gohan be 16 at the beginning of the Boo arc and then turn 17 some time before the 25th Tenkaichi Budokai?

[Fox666]

Theorically it is possible, but I really don't think Toriyama had something like that in mind...

[Insertclevername]

He could have just done the math wrong, it's possible.

[Chibi Mystic Gohan]

Where's the error? His birthday is officially in May. It was April at the start of the arc. He was still 16. The real error is Goten's age.

[Kingdom Heartless]

Unless Chi-Chi did some of his training in the ROSAT.

[hleV]

Hmm. Goten has born shortly after the Cell arc and he's 7 during the Boo arc. That would make the time gap between Cell & Boo arcs over 7 years. No doubt about that.

Gohan is said to still be 16 at the beginning of the Boo arc, so he must've still officially been 9 (close to 10) during the Cell Games. Is that possible?

*** I would like to note that this age progression list still works with the Daizenshuu's October 12th date for Raditz' arrival, for those who want to deal with the books printed facts (wrong as they may be). But, as Herms has said, that date is impossible according to the manga's narration of Nappa and Vegeta arriving before a year has passed, so I used his fixed date from the "Stronger Loving Timeline".

This thread I posted got some good results, and I think the general consensus agrees he was about 10, close to 11.

Chibi Mystic Gohan has a point though, Goten, should probably be about 6 1/2-ish. Unless you buy into the whole, faster birth cycle theory but that's a whole other can of worms.

*Edit* TheDevilsCorpse beat me to it but yeah, that chart explains it all.

[Fox666]

Supposedly Goten was already born during the Androids saga, but was never shown?

[DBZAOTA482]

I can see Goku neglecting his new-born but Chi-Chi?

Plot-hole.

[Xyex]

The chart's ok, except for the fact that Gohan's birthday is mid-late may, not early. His birthday is given, at least in the anime, as happening sometime during the 10 day wait for the Cell Games.

Which makes him 16 (chronologically) during the entirety of the Buu Saga.

[DBZGTKOSDH]

That birthday was because Gohan had turned 11 inside RoSaT, not because that day was his actual birthday.

Supposedly Goten was already born during the Androids saga, but was never shown?

Why would this happen? The Daizenshuu timeline doesn't say that Goten was born before the Artificial Humans' attack, it was just talking about that specific year in general, then went to the specific days. Chi Chi could perfectly be at her 2-3 months of pregnancy during the Artificial Humans/Cell arcs.

[Xeogran]

Vegetto decides killing Buu is too boring and defuses of his own free will, Buu blows shit up and then dies due to an infection of Vegetto's invincible ki on May 9th, Age 774
