Of course Chaozu ages, he just wears a lot of makeup. :P

Chaozu probably ages as much as Puar, Oolong and Bulma's Mom :D

Hehe. Ya, at least Roshi had an explanation... not that one was ever offered for how his sister (Baba), the Crane Hermit, or Tao lived so long. I think it's just one of those thing Toriyama-sama forgot along the way. He did a really good job of aging most people but some simply slipped his mind or explanations for their ages slipped his mind.

I still hold to the theory that he forgot how much time had passed at the start of the 23rd Budokai when he first drew Krillin and the others and that's why Krillin's still so short. :P

Probably due to his getting taller, Oolong does look as he ages between the 22nd and 23rd Tenkaichi Budokais.

Chaozu, like many others of the DB universe seems to never age. I'd like to say that Chaozu about a year or so younger than Krillin.
I really, really need to get back into the habit of posting.

At the 23rd Budokai and when Raditz first showed up, Krillin was a head shorter than Goku. After that, he seemed to shrink.

Krillin gave his height away to Vegeta so Vegeta wouldn't feel so inferior to Goku.

Now that i think about it, only Krillin and the women were the only ones that really looked old at the end of DBGT, but maybe thats because they stopped training at some point in the anime (or maybe thats just what marriage can do to you :P )

Even though Toriyama decided to have Saiyans keep their youthful looks longer, I did see something that said he almost thought of Goku looking like an old man, with a pic as such.

Ya, he did plan on having an "Old man Goku" at the end, even drew him, but didn't use it. Dayspring probably even still had the image. He used it as his avatar for a while.

Ha Ha Ha. Though I must say, if there was a longer amount of time between the fight with Bu and the last few chapters/episodes of the series, I would have liked to have seen Goku like that and retired from being the big hero I must say.

As long as I can read the text clearly, it's good enough for me. 8)

Are you guys serious? What's so difficult about the text? :? Is it a joke about the cut-off E or what?

I am serious. Because you could have done so much better with the text. :(

I am totally serious. It's ugly, and you butchered the image as a result. You've failed to impress, with your poor paint skills good sir.

You know you can turn off the forced white background in Paint, when you're using the text tool, right?
He's not publishing it :roll:
