Goku's age at Majin buu
Wait, if you do the math like this than Goku is 34 right?
He was like 22 and Gohan was like 4 in the beginning. Gohan become 16 at High school so 4 + 12 = 16. So 22 + 12 = 34. So is Goku actually 34.
Hmm.

Re: Goku's age at Majin buu
Goku also spent 8 years of that time dead, so he didn't age then. Plus the almost a year in the ROSAT, and a few months in the room as a child, if I recall correctly.Captain Strawberry wrote:Wait, if you do the math like this than Goku is 34 right?

Re: Goku's age at Majin buu
Including all Spirit Time Room/death shenanigans, Goku is 36 years old during the Buu arc, but physically 28. I guess this also applies to Super, which is only six months after the fight with Genuine Buu. Though, don't four months pass inbetween that fight and the wish to erase everyone's memories of Buu? If so, then he's certainly pushing 37/29.

Re: Goku's age at Majin buu
Goku is 19 when he fights Piccolo, Z takes place 5 years later making him 24 when he dies. He's technically 25 when he fights Vegeta but he was dead a whole year so he didn't age. It isn't until he goes into the ROSAT that he makes up for that lost year making him his appropriate physical age of 30 when he dies again. He spent seven years dead where he didn't age so when he's revived in the Buu Arc he's 37 but he's physically only 30. Which weirdly makes him and Gohan kind of close in the physical age department since he's only 12-13 years older than his son. It could be his body rapidly ages to make up for his lost seven years but that's just speculation on my part.
When someone tells you, "Don't present your opinion as fact," what they're actually saying is, "Don't present your opinion with any conviction. Because I don't like your opinion, and I want to be able to dismiss it as easily as possible." Don't fall for it.

Because that's what he is physically but not biologically I guess.

No that's wrong. Before he went to train at the lookout, he was 15 and spent 3 years there which makes him 18. 4 years later, making him 22 and Gohan is 4.ekrolo2 wrote:Goku is 19 when he fights Piccolo, Z takes place 5 years later making him 24 when he dies.

Re: Goku's age at Majin buu
Per the official timeline, Goku is born in Age 737 and the Boo arc takes place in Age 774, so not counting RoSaT stuff he should be 37 during the Boo arc, or at least 36 going on 37.
Goku has no official birthday, so there's always a bit of wiggle room in regards to his exact age. So at the 21st tournament he says he's 12, though the tournament is set in Age 750, the year he turns 13. So Goku is 12 going on 13 at the 21st TB/Red Ribbon stuff, 15 going on 16 for the 22nd TB/Piccolo stuff, etc.
Another nuisance is that the exact amount of time between Freeza's defeat on Namek and his attack on Earth varies between the manga and anime (and video games, and Viz sort of messes it up too): in the manga and official timeline it's about a year and 260 days, while the anime just says one year.

Re: Goku's age at Majin buu
Well, since the TB is always May 7, we can at the very least say he was born after May, though that doesn't say a lot.Herms wrote:Goku has no official birthday, so there's always a bit of wiggle room in regards to his exact age.

Re: Goku's age at Majin buu
The Saiyan arc starts five years after the end of the 23rd Budoukai arc, not four. After all, babies aren't born instantly. So he'd be at least 23 there, not 22.Captain Strawberry wrote:No that's wrong.

He is 37 (30 physically).
