Goku's and Vegeta's mothers?
Goku's and Vegeta's mothers?
Any mention of their mothers?
If not has Akira Toroyama said something about them or hinted at who they might be?

Re: Goku's and Vegeta's mothers?
Raditz might have mentioned "our parents" in passing, but that's about it. The only mention of Vegeta's mom is in a timeline where it says the year that his parents became a couple.
A lot of characters parents (moms especially) are missing in DB. My out-of-universe theory is that since these characters aren't important to the plotline at large, Toriyama didn't bother to tell us who exactly they were.
And while the following isn't a surefire way to tell, my best way for getting a vague composite of what each of their mothers looked like is to just subtract what physical traits Goku and Vegeta don't share with their fathers. My guess is Goku's mom probably had similar eyes to him and hair somewhat similar to Raditz's. Vegeta's more difficult; all I can really pull is that his mom possibly was petite with dark brown hair.

Both Goku and Vegeta's mothers died along with the Planet Vegeta.

Re: Goku's and Vegeta's mothers?
I don't really see how that really has anything to do with the question. I'd say the original poster already knows that. You know, you can't totally prove that either, I mean, they could have died before or after the explosion, it's all a mystery until there is official word.DBZAOTA482 wrote:Both Goku and Vegeta's mothers died along with the Planet Vegeta.

Thank Kaio that there's a word filter for the name of Bardock's female cohort.

The victim of violent head trauma as an infant [...] he's a simple bumpkin with a fair share of brain damage who's natural talents to work out what's wrong compensate for his broad lack of common sense. But he's also a fighter, through and through [...] he fight until he has, in no uncertain terms, beaten his enemy on terms they can both acknowledge. He doesn't want to kill anyone, or even prove that he can win... he just wants to know he can. He's an ineffably charming bastard who's manly leanings were really incendental, and yes, the fact that he was voiced by a squeaky woman made the combination perhaps all the more charming.

Re: Goku's and Vegeta's mothers?
I'm pretty sure Bardock slept with whoever and got raditz and goku from different women.
Goku; I'm positive his mom is the Saiyan that looks like Pan, but taller, look at the hair, dead giveaway.
Vegeta; She was petite, his father is like 7ft tall, and he's like 5ft 5, so she must have been 5 ft and blood of royalty.
Even though the Saiyans on planet Plant aren't originally from there, I guess the alien tribes were separated and had leaders until Vegeta Sr. rallied them together and conquered PLANT.

Re: Goku's and Vegeta's mothers?
Because Raditz has same facial and height appearance as Bardock, and Goku has same hair as him.

Re: Goku's and Vegeta's mothers?
Doesn't that only prove that they have the same father, not the same mother?

Re: Goku's and Vegeta's mothers?
My head cannon has always been that whoever she was she had the same eyes as Goku since both Raditz and Bardok have different eyes then Goku.
Re: Goku's and Vegeta's mothers?
I've always imagined Vegeta's mother as being tall like his father, and Vegeta just got the short end of the stick, illogically as always.

Even more ironic if we count Tarble in as he was even shorter than Vegeta.SpacePie8 wrote:I've always imagined Vegeta's mother as being tall like his father, and Vegeta just got the short end of the stick, illogically as always.

In dragon ball z kai raditz refers to them as "our mother and father...", that's enough proof for me at least.Bussani wrote:What makes you sure of that?

The statement is nothing that contradicts the possibility of Goku having a different mother.shreddinghead wrote:In dragon ball z kai raditz refers to them as "our mother and father...", that's enough proof for me at least.Bussani wrote:What makes you sure of that?
It is feasible that Raditz was trying to convey that both his mother and Goku's mother met the same fate.
Looking at Goku, Bardock, and Tullece, I think there was a playboy saiyajin among the lower ranks.
They probably share the same ancestor, and the Saiyans were only big enough to form small tribes.
Who is that prolific donor Saiyajin?

Re: Goku's and Vegeta's mothers?
If raditz and goku had different mothers, he would refer to them as "our father and our mother(s)". The dragon ball wiki states that in some dubbed version(s) turles is gokus long lost twin brother, so perhaps yeah!
