I'm pretty sure if I put my toaster on it, it wouldn't fall through.
Arale (and the Gatchans) riding the cloud:

Also, Don't forget Tao-pai-pai :wink:

I seriously doubt she could. Her personality seems more like someone from Vegeta's family than a Son family member.

I'm sure of that too. That toaster probably doesn't even have a heart so it can't be seen as impure and we've been the cloud hold inanimate objects before.

Goku didn't die in GT. The show sucked him off so much, it was impossible to keep him in the world of the living, so he ascended beyond mortality.

Pan is just acting her age, don't forget she is only 9. She doesn't have any bad deeds to unqualify her. Her being annoyed at weird things happening around her is justified, Pan is a pure girl regardless.

Goten also did many mischievious things (thanks to Kid Trunks) and he could still ride it.

Pan in GT is shown to be pretty arrogant and selfish. She acts like she's the shit even though she just gets her ass kicked most of the time. She wasn't even meant to step into the grand tour but she did anyways in simply because she wanted to and didn't care about the problems she caused. Also when the bank was being robbed and there were hostages she only cared about going on her "date".

She's also shown to be quite aggressive if her relationship with Giru is any indication. She yells at, threatens, and beats on him when all he does is dote on her. Poor thing doesn't even feel safe around her.

Goten is an idiot what do you expect?

Her joining the trip was just out of total boredom and nobody wanting to spend proper time with the girl. I think that's justified and not entirely her fault. If everyone didn't neglect her for seemingly no reason, she'd be comfortable to stay at home.

Not to mention Son family genes, and we know they're all adventurous.

I don't see that at all? She helped to defeat the gangsters and free the hostages.. so? Even keeping innocents out of the way (like she thought that Goku is just a kid and kept him out of the way )I think that she did it out of good will, and it wasn't the first time.

That was like, for the first day she met the robot. Pan grew closer to Giru as she went further, even to the point of going out of her way to explore his home planet, then crying over him after he got destroyed by Baby (despite being a machine) etc.


Pan also risked her life to save innocents many time, so I wouldn't say she's completely arrogant. Just childish sometimes, but still good. You're making a bad person out of her for little reasons.

Exactly. She joined it out of boredom which is pretty selfish if you ask me and they were keeping her off the trip for her own well-being. I'd understand if it was a trip to the amusement park or some shit but they're going on a serious mission.

She only helped out because it was getting in the way of her "date". Keeping Goku out doesn't necessarily prove she wasn't selfish. It just proves she has regard for human life.

She still kept pushing him around even after accepting him as a friend. That scene where he felt unsafe around happened in the Shadow Dragon arc.

Pan also risked her life to save innocents many time, so I wouldn't say she's completely arrogant. Just childish sometimes, but still good. You're making a bad person out of her for little reasons.
I'm not saying she's a bad person at all. Just a flawed one thus I don't really see her as worthy of riding the cloud.
