The more I look at half breeds the more I see them take their mother than their fathers. Since we never seen Female Siayan-Male Human type of Half Saiyan.
Trunks - Have his Mother's side hair color.
Goten and Gohan - Have Chi Chi's skin(Which is similar to Goku's) and got their black hair from Chi Chi even though Goku has black hair.
Had their been more hair colors. Why is this? Do Humans got a strong DNA!?
I mean while Goten and Trunks liked it better than Gohan the Half Breeds didn't like fighting. None of them got the warrior gene.
Half Saiyan take more from their human side?

Re: Half Saiyan take more from their human side?
I think half saiyans characteristics are not identical in every cases. I mean Trunks, Gohan and Bra are more human-like but Goten if he shares a great resemblance with his fater, he is more saiyan-like, as he got even the hairstyle of Goku.

Re: Half Saiyan take more from their human side?
Eh... they still have access to Super Saiyan and (at least in some cases) tails/Oozaru, so they're definitely more Saiyan than human physically. Aside from the hair, anyway, what with Trunks, Bra, and Pan at least getting more human-like hair rather than spiky black Saiyan hair. And Gohan/Goten definitely seem to have hair that can be easily changed like human hair even though it looks more Saiyan-like, rather than always growing back into the same pattern like Saiyan hair. I guess human hair genes take precedence over Saiyan ones, for some reason.
Growth rates seem to vary, though. Gohan definitely has a human-like growth pattern (pretty clear development from child to teenager to adult), while Goten and Trunks seem to have stayed in "runt stage" for a long time just like Goku (and presumably pure Saiyans in general) did, going by how they haven't visibly aged in either of the two specials/movies set a year or more after the Buu saga but then suddenly look a lot more adult-like when we see them at the end of DBZ. They also still seem like teenagers in GT even though they'd be nearing their mid-20s by then, but then again so do a lot of human 20-somethings... so that may not really have anything to do with their Saiyan-like growth rate. It's hard to say where Pan and Bra fit in, since GT if anything makes them seem to have developed faster than ordinary humans (they certainly don't look or act 9-10 years old... and they definitely don't look like a pure Saiyan would at their age, going by how runty-looking Goku was at age 12 in Dragonball) rather than growing normally or staying tiny for a long time. We never see how they'd develop in a non-GT setting so it's hard to say how they'd really work.
The only big difference seems to be that they aren't as naturally inclined toward fighting as pure Saiyans are. That and whatever weirdness is going on with their ki levels when compared to the pure Saiyans: Gohan having enormous amounts of dormant power even as a kid, Goten and Trunks getting a "head start" power-wise without any serious training, Pan maybe also getting a "head start" going by what we see of her at the end of Z... and maybe getting Gohan-esque dormant power too, going by her ability to sometimes actually be relevant in GT without even having Super Saiyan. No idea about Bra, though. I mean, I'd assume she's at least stronger than a human kid her age, but we never see her do... anything, really... so it's hard to even guess at what sort of power she has.

Great resemblance might as well call him a copy of Goku. Goten some how got Goku's intelligence aswell which makes no sense.Low Tone G wrote:I think half saiyans characteristics are not identical in every cases.
