It's preference. For example When I was 16 I watched over the neighbors 10-12 year old kid. It'd be really weird if I then went on to pork that kids daughter when he's older and has a kid himself. After all we have hung out plenty of times, I watched over him, but then doing it with that kids daughter in the future would just be weird. It'd be like sleeping with the child of your best friend you grew up with. I wouldn't want to get in a romance with the daughter of one of my friends.

I wouldn't think that, honestly. I wouldn't cling to the memory of her as a child, I would see what was in front of me. I would only think that if we had a brother-sister type relationship or mother-son/father-daughter type relationship.

Bulma didn't have a mother-son type relationship or a brother-sister type relationship with Gohan, and she didn't even spent that much time with Gohan when he was a kid, which is why I wouldn't see it as weird.

Well it's really just my opinion. I ain't saying it's morally wrong or anything like that, It's just weird to me. Bulma knew both of them as kids. I personally would not have sex with anyone I knew of as child when I was already an adult or teen. You may not see it as weird which is fine. I do though. I'm glad though TFS didn't go this route while some probably wished they went all out.

Yeah, I'm not "condemning" your opinion or anything. I just don't see any weirdness in it. In fact, I would find it perfectly natural if they found some solace in each other, with everybody dying and the world being in that state.

I mean I could see it happening simply cause the world has gone to shit, they have no one else, etc. However I personally just find it too weird. I personally would never get into a relationship with a daughter of a close friend of mine. Though that's just me.

Honestly, while I can see the argument for how it'd be a little questionable...the world Trunks came from has turned into such utter hell that a lot of things that would normally be a bit 'squeamish' would more than likely be on the table suddenly.

I understand why it was taken out, but I can't lie, I laughed pretty hard at the removed scene. :lol:

Honestly, I see the comedy(Gohan/Bulma) behind it. Yamcha's suicide is cringe worthy. But it's also pretty funny that Kaiser edited him out of scenes, or had Yamcha read the disclaimer twice in a row. There's even a term for it: Crossing the Line Twice, when something horrible or mean, or dark is pushed to the point of absurdity where it's hilarious.

Now those who would find Bulma x legal age Gohan disgusting, I'm not going to fault you for thinking that's wrong. But you have no sense of humor if you don't think Gohan shooting a yelllow beam of energy through his penis is not funny and also not a hilarious callback to how Trunks was conceived. :lol:

Would it surprise anybody here that I was completely cool with that joke?

Nope I'd find it funny if they did a call back while conceiving Pan. I could see Videl being the aggressor while Gohan ain't so sure til "MASENKO HA!"

Not nearly as funny. Or funny, at all. Videl is already into Gohan, and it's not possibly cringe inducing due to them being the same age. Comedy is subjective though.

Well that's been their dynamic. Of course you'll never top the Bulgeta moment. I don't think Bulhan would be funny at all. It's kinda sad and pathetic really. Though that alone is what some people may find funny about it.

People are actually squicked at the thought that Bulma would sleep with adult Gohan? This is a woman who hit on her own son.

Unknowingly. This is a middle aged woman sleeping with the son of her longest friend that she's known since he was a toddler.

Considering how screwed up Mirai Trunks' future is, Bulma will take what she can get.

I'm glad we see it the same way.

While this is true, and again I see why it's a bit squicky for people - so long as both were of age, which they were, and both were willing, then I don't really see a whole lot that's definitely wrong. But that's just my outlook on it, and we're probably focusing too much on this aspect of the special anyway, heh. :P
