Through all his best efforts his destiny in the universe is to ultimately fail and end in tragedy. The issue is for the past few decades we all felt his character represented that hope and the ability to overcome yet we find now that he's nothing more that a victim of circumstance and that his hope was ultimately foolish as the universe was out to get him on a personal level no matter what he did.Lord Beerus wrote:Future Trunks' story began with tragedy and ended ultimately in tragedy. Any hope or peace that Future Trunks has in world had doesn't last for long, and in the end, he loses everything has to start a new life in a completely new timeline.
Shaggy Dog Story incarnate.
I don't agree with you. More than ever I see Trunks as the personification of "Hope"
He has never lost it even after all the shit he's been through. In the end he lost everything but still goes to another timeline with Mai, with the hope of finally finding peace.
He's the best written character of the show, and is the only one who has to suffer some consequence and can't rely on Dragon Balls.
