I'll be honest and say that until recently I thought that GT was set 10 years after the end of Z.

I can't remember where I got it from, but I think it's very possible that I got it from one of those kid's magazines I used to read. And I guess Pan always seemed more like a teenage girl to me than a 9 year old.
Wow... Takes dedication to watch all GT.
I've watched all of GT over a few days before, aswell. And I also started doing it again a few months later, but I didn't finish it that time, other things to do must have come up. It's the sort of show that I can enjoy if I can get out of the fanboy state of mind.
Yo! Cal's the name. Nice to meet you!

Honestly I wish it was a ten year timeskip. Pan and Bra could pass for 14(ESPECIALLY Bra) and Uub for 20.

Pan... just doesn't look 9 to me. :/

Pan was just a little 9 or 10 year old girl who wanted to be an adult so bad just like all little kids around that age. It should not be weird at all, Bra just look a little old for age because of the way she dresses. That is not strange as well because we have little girls in the real world dressing inappropriately and because of the hormones in the food some of them mature physically excessively early. Uub was just a big 15-year old because of all the training and most likely he picked up some of Kakarrot’s eating habits.
The Saiyans are very much like the Klingons and Jem'Hadar.

OK, here's the timeline. I can't quite remember how the Tenkaichi Budoukai was supposed to work in GT: was Mister Satan still the super champion, like at the end of Z, and Papayaman won the championship but lost to the super champion, or was Satan treated as a regular contestant, meaning he'd be the champion and Papayaman the runner-up? I seem to remember the former, so I went with that.

Age 789
January 7th: Uub’s training under Goku ends. Pilaf breaks into the Heavenly Realm and obtains the ultimate dragonballs, but accidentally wishes Goku to be a child. Kaio reveals that the Earth will explode if the ultimate dragonballs aren’t sealed away again in a year.
January 13th: Goku is “kidnapped” by criminals seeking ransom money from Capsule Corporation. Work on the spaceship nears completion.
January 14th: The spaceship is completed, and Goku, Pan, and Trunks take off into space. But a piece from the rocket guidance system breaks off.
January 21st: Goku and co. crash on Imegga, and spend the night in a hotel there.
January 22nd: Goku and co. meet Gill and have their spaceship stolen. They steal it back during the night, and Goku encounters Redgic for the first time.
January 23rd: Goku and co. are now wanted by the police, and at night they confront Don Kia. Goku defeats Redgic and Don Kia surrenders.
January 24th: Goku and co. return the rental contracts to the people of Imegga, and leave the planet.

March 13th: Goku and co. find the Si Xing Qiu (4-star ball) on Planet Mommath.

April 23rd: Goku and co. arrive on Planet Calvo, and promise to take care of Zunama in exchange for the Liu Xing Qiu (6-star ball).
April 24th: Goku and co. defeat Zunama, but the Liu Xing Qiu is stolen by the Para-Para Brothers. Goku and co. defeat the Para-Para Brothers on Planet Bihe, but Pan and Gill are accidentally sent to Planet Lood. Goku and Trunks follow, and together with Pan they defeat the Machine Mutant Lood.

June 11th-12th: Goku and co. find the Wu Xing Qiu (5-star ball) on Planet Rudeze.

August 21-22nd: Goku and co. visit Planet M2. Trunks is intentionally turned to metal by General Rild, and shipped to the planet where Doctor Mu's laboratory is located. He is freed by Gill, and together with Goku and Pan they discover Baby, the ultimate Machine Mutant Mu had been raising. They seemingly destroy it, but Baby escapes.
August 28th: Goku and co. find the Yi Xing Qiu (1-star ball) in a derelict spaceship. They rescue the ship's only survivor and take him to Planet Pital, where it turns out the boy has been taken over by Baby, but they manage to drive Baby away again.

October 16th: Baby arrives on Earth, and takes control of Goten, Gohan, and Vegeta. Baby then begins laying eggs inside all Earthlings, taking over the entire planet. At around the same time, Goku and co. find the Qi Xing Qiu (7-star ball) on a planet inhabited by giant tigers.
October 30th: Goku and co. discover the San Xing Qiu (3-star ball) on a planet inhabited by dinosaurs.

November 6th: Goku and co. discover the final dragonball, the Liang Xing Qiu (2-star ball) on a planet of ice. They then begin to return to Earth.

December 18th: Goku and co. arrive back on Earth, only to find the entire planet under Baby's control. Goku fights Baby, but is defeated. Baby then uses the ultimate dragonballs before they can be properly sealed away again, wishing to create a planet identical to the old Planet Plant, which he calls Planet Tsufuru. Immigration of chosen Earthlings to Planet Tsufuru then begins.
December 24th: Goku goes to Planet Tsufuru, transforms into a Golden Oozaru, and finally into a Super Saiyan 4. He drives Baby from Vegeta's body and knocks him into the sun, killing him. Baby's eggs are purged from everyone's brains using the Super God Water.
December 25th: Contact between Earth and Planet Tsufuru is established. With the Earth to explode in two weeks, evacuation of all Earthlings to Planet Tsufuru begins

Age 790
January 7th: The Earth explodes due to the influence of the ultimate dragonballs. Piccolo willingly stays behind to prevent the same thing happening again, and as he dies the ultimate dragonballs become ordinary stones. The Earth is then restored with the Namekian dragonballs.

May 7th: The 30th Tenkaichi Budoukai is held. The champion of the children division is Magure, and the runner-up is Son Goku. The adult division champion is Papayaman, and the runner-up is Ebitchiri. Papayaman loses to the super champion, Mister Satan.

August 12th: In Hell, Doctor Gero and Doctor Mu team up to create Super No.17, opening a whole between Earth and Hell. Goku defeats Super N0.17 with No.18's help, but Kuririn was killed by No.17, and there are many natural disasters as a result of Hell and Earth having been linked. Goku, Trunks, and Pan set out to gather the (regular) dragonballs to restore things to normal.
August 22nd: Goku and co. finish collecting the dragonballs. Bulma and co. try to summon Shen Long, but instead cause the Evil Dragons to appear. Goku and Pan defeat Liang Xing Long, then Wu Xing Long later that day. Liu Xing Long appears in Bish's village, and begins causing fish to fall from the sky.

September 5th: Goku and Pan meet Bish, and defeat Liu Xing Long.
September 7th: Goku and Pan defeat Qi Xing Long. On Mt. Paozu, the water supply has completely stopped.
September 9th: Goku battles Si Xing Long and San Xing Long. Yi Xing Long then appears, and overwhelms Goku after absorbing the power of the other Evil Dragons. With Bulma's help, Vegeta finally becomes a Super Saiyan 4, and he and Goku fuse into Gogeta. After failing to defeat Super Yi Xing Long as Gogeta, Goku finally destroys him with a Super Ultra Genki-Dama. After wishing that the Earth be restored to normal, Goku departs with Shen Long for parts unknown.

So GT is approx. a year and a half. Makes sense.

Bra definitely doesn't look as young as she's meant to be, but Pan is a midget. She's barely taller than Gohan was from the Saiyan saga through to the Android saga.

I guess Saiyajin do age slower to a certain extent. Goku didn't get a good growth spirt till after Daimo. But still...wasn't Bulma 14 at the very start of Dragon Ball? That shows what a 14 year old should look like. And I suppose Bra still looks younger than that if I think about it, so maybe it does all work out.

Herms I know you will eventually use all these posts on your site but would you mind if someone collects them into one thread here?

Someone just collect all those posts and paste them on a new thread entitled “Herms’ Notes” or something along that line so anytime you have some new guide or insights you can just post them there and we all could easily find the thread by using the “search” option. Naturally you would be the only one to post in that thread so it will not be all that cluttered.

That sounds good, although would there be any way to ensure I was the only one to post in that thread?

Ah, duh... You're right of course. Goku getting confused about his own age got me confused.

Maybe you could ask Mike to put it on a “sticky post” and only allow you to have access to it. I petty sure he would allow it since you are “Julian #2”, after all he would most likely reference it when he finally gets around to his own character guide.
