How does Goku really feel about Chi-Chi?

[Piccolo Daimao]

How about this question? Why does Bulma love Vegeta? This is a guy that was responsible for the deaths of your friends and your boyfriend, threatened to kill you and violently killed a guy right in front of you, and yet you claim that he has a bit of good in him and cry when he's dead? Then again, Bulma's totally superficial and probably gets off on dating bad guys. She previously dated Yamcha, a desert bandit she continuously broke up with and got back together with based on paranoid thoughts about his supposed cheating. And solely based on his name, she wondered whether or not Jackie Chun was hot. It's probably more lust than love, if any.

Oh yeah, I remember that part in the Freeza arc where Bulma wonders whether she blew it by not going after Goku. Completely forgetting how she bathed him as a kid and everything. But now they're both adults, she thinks it wouldn't be weird to fuck him?

[Michsi]

misplaced attraction to goku.

Yeah , this is one of my favorite non so serious fan-theories


But I think love comes later , after the Cell Saga, when they actually start living together. Before that, she doesn't seem overly concerned about him.

But as for her being able to feel attracted towards him in the first place, well, I can't really understand that.

But now they're both adults, she thinks it wouldn't be weird to fuck him?

Depends how much she was aware of him as a kid. 4 years really isn't that much. Even Avatar had an age gap between the main couple and Katara acted way more like a mother/sister figure towards her love interest than Bulma ever did with Goku.

Yeah, I think that's a given. When Piccolo asks her where Vegeta is, she says something along the lines of, "How would I know? I wouldn't live with a jerk like that!" Right after revealing that she bore his child. But in the Boo arc, when Goku tells her that Vegeta's dead, she cries. Perhaps part of her "love" for Vegeta by the Boo arc came from his genuine interest in Trunks, if only because he wanted to train him to defeat the sons of the man he hated the most. Maybe she saw it as Vegeta actually having a bit of good inside him. But it's probably more, as I aforementioned, Vegeta being a bad boy hunk.

I know, it probably doesn't seem as bad as I said. It's not really bad at all. But still, it seems like a somewhat weird jump to make. "My relationship with Yamcha isn't that great, so maybe I should've gone out with Goku now that he's big and strong"? And who says Goku would even agree to it? She wonders whether she blew it, but she didn't blow anything, because it was never even there. It was probably hard enough for Chi-Chi to get Goku to bone her, let alone a woman he didn't get tricked (you know what I mean) into marrying.

I it would be the opposite. Exept if Bulma was a hermaphrodite

[Rocketman]

Bulma gets off on murder.

i knew there was a reason she was so desperate to see freeza and the androids*

*hey, that'd make a cool name for a band

[Michsi]

And who says Goku would even agree to it?

I don't think it'd be that hard for Bulma to get Goku in a similar situation, like Chichi did. But I was referring to Bulma and her feelings alone and how these might have influenced an attraction towards the only other living saiyan.

Tbh, I think Bulma would have been a better choice for Goku.

i dunno. i don't think there's anyone who'd be a good choice of romantic partner for him. i just don't get the impression he's wired for romantic attraction. although anyone with a similar talent and passion for martial arts as him would probably make an excellent companion.

[Michsi]

No, I didn't mean it from a romantic perspective either.

Bulma seems more than okay with letting her kids take after their father, she seems more supportive of Goku's lifestyle, she has a business of her own to run and never has to worry about financial problems so Goku is free to do whatever he wants and I think she could handled Goku's prolonged absence better.

[Saiga]

During the Cell - Boo timeskip, Bulma's feelings for Vegeta develop into love. That's what I think.

[Master Blaster]

i tend to read goku as aromantic (and possibly asexual, but that's harder to tell ). in general, i don't think he values relationships (any human relationship) as much as most people do. his strongest relationships that i can think of are with kuririn and gohan, who are among the only people during the series that he has training in common with and that he's spent a decent amount of time with.

I agree with this.

Tbh, I think Bulma would have been a better choice for Goku.

With almost all romance stuff happening "off screen" or during a time skip, the changes having to be made to the manga would be minimal in my opinion. Vegeta would have to get a new "morality pet" and Trunks would need a new father or a new mother.

Gohan having a different mother wouldn't change much, because no matter how supportive or unsupportive his mother is, in the end he's off and fighting the bad guys anyway.

I recall in the Boo arc that Bulma seems pretty annoyed with Vegeta training all the time and not working, "just like Goku". I mean, she probably doesn't care that much, since they're super-rich anyway and Vegeta doesn't necessarily need to pay his keep.

I agree that Bulma's better suited to Goku than Chi-Chi, since Bulma likely won't nag him all the time or be tough on Gohan's studies. But that's not saying much, considering who we're talking about.

Yeah she was, but it stands to reason that she would be somewhat annoyed by that. But that's all she ever said about it. When she told Gohan about him training Trunks, she seemed amused and more than okay with it.

I believe she would be more supportive and try less to change him, especially since she seemed to admire him and his power . With a business of her own to run, her life wouldn't necessarily revolve around family life and probably wouldn't mind so much that it was less than perfect.

[Kiddo626]

Wasn't there an interview from Akira Toriyama where he said that he wished Goku ended up with Bulma instead of Chichi? Or did I dream that?

Sounds like it would have come from a fake interview constructed by a GokuxBulma shipper.

About Bulma and Vegeta...

See the 'Yo Son Goku and his Friends Return' special. I that shows they are perfect for each other! They are so alike.

They're not "perfect" for each other. They just both happen to be immoral hot-tempered jerks.

[DBZ Mick]

Well, maybe not perfect then, but a good match.
