Anyone preferred if Toei made Goten the victor than Trunks?
According to the manga it's Trunks that won the battle but I wouldn't have minded if Toei changed it a bit and instead of Trunks winning the Kids Tournament it'd be Goten.

Re: Anyone preferred if Toei made Goten the victor than Trun
They'd have had to alter the whole ending of the battle, which isn't really something I'd want changed just for the sake of being different. Besides, the original ending leaves both kids happy. Trunks gets to win, while Goten gets a few new toys. It'd be hard to think of something for Goten to give Trunks that the latter wouldn't already own.
I think Trunks is a funnier foil for Satan anyway.

Re: Anyone preferred if Toei made Goten the victor than Trun
As much as a Goten fan I am. The right person won. Unless Vegeta(majin) spoke about how even Kakarot children surpass his own. Not to mention Gohan once surpassed Vegeta.....Goten should had won! He would had made Majin Vegeta more epic.dbboxkaifan wrote:According to the manga it's Trunks that won the battle but I wouldn't have minded if Toei changed it a bit and instead of Trunks winning the Kids Tournament it'd be Goten.

Re: Anyone preferred if Toei made Goten the victor than Trun
No. An anime adaptation should stick to animating the canonical manga material, unless they're going with a completely original story, like the first Full Metal Alchemist anime. Also, I like that Trunks beating Goten is the reverse of the situation with their fathers. At least it gives Vegeta something to hold over Goku's head.

Re: Anyone preferred if Toei made Goten the victor than Trun
Trunks should rightfully have won because he is stronger. Simple as that, we wouldnt want another Gohan al over again if Goten won. There is no reason he could have anyway considering trunks is better trained.

If that's all you want, then all you want is fanservice, rather than an actual coherent story. And of course those aren't mutually exclusive; you could have a coherent story with "shine" moments! But if a story is perfectly coherent (and I'm really not seeing any compelling arguments that this one is anything but, despite constantly recurring, really poorly reasoned, attempts to argue otherwise), and you're bemoaning the lack of "shine" moments as a reason for the story's poor quality, then you're letting your thirst for "shine" moments obfuscate your ability to detect basic storytelling when it's right in front of you.

Re: Anyone preferred if Toei made Goten the victor than Trun
Nah, too obvious. I'm glad Trunks won.
With that, Vegeta family has a streak of 3 wins agaisnt Goku Family. Vegeta beat Goku two times and Trunks beat Goten.
(Even knowing Goku could beat him in the second round if he wanted)

From a plot point of view Majin Vegeta could have more hatred and grudge over Goku. See my first post.

Of course. Goten is number 1. Had Goku trained him Goten would be a monster seeing as he enjoyed play fighting.qjz123 wrote:If Goku had trained Goten he would have been stronger than Vegeta.TheGmGoken wrote:From a plot point of view Majin Vegeta could have more hatred and grudge over Goku.

Viva Son Goten
Re: Anyone preferred if Toei made Goten the victor than Trun
after the reveal of SSJ3,It would be Vegeta's only solace and you want to take it away?
Most fans who identify with DB since they only watched anime first would surely be disappointed at the fact that even Vegeta's son is also destined to be like his father.
Trunks was superior to Goten and going by In DB established mechanics, superior strategies/techniques/strength/attacks have always trumped.

Re: Anyone preferred if Toei made Goten the victor than Trun
Aww come on, physically he's a Goku clone, only thinner, but I think that personality wise they are different. Goten is more mischevous and is an adorable kid, Goku was kind of a clueless savage, but he wasn't exactly loving (obviously, because his only family member had been dead for a while before he contacted any human being). I can see the point that they are both naive, but then again, so was Gohan. I think Goten is different enough from Goku personality wise to be his own character.
