Biography

The son of Bulma and Vegeta, this version of Trunks grows up in a world without his father, who, alongside most of Earth's strongest fighters, gets killed by artificial humans created by Doctor Gero when Trunks is still an infant. Son Gohan survives, and helps Trunks with his training as he grows older. In the manga's series of events, Trunks is already a Super Saiyan while training with Gohan, whereas in the anime version, he struggles trying to attain the form. He joins Gohan in a battle against Artificial Humans No. 17 and No. 18, but they barely get out of it alive. Later, Gohan heads off to the battlefield again, knocking Trunks out to prevent him from coming along. By the time Trunks wakes up, Gohan has fallen. Upon finding his dead body in the anime version, Trunks transforms into a Super Saiyan.

Three years later, he tries fighting the artificial humans again, to no avail. He resorts to using the time machine Bulma built, to deliver heart medicine to Son Goku twenty years in the past. Bulma believes that if Gohan's father had not succumbed to a heart virus, he could have made a difference against the artificial humans.[1][2]

Name

Following the underwear theme of Bulma's family, Trunks' name is taken from the trunks type of underwear.
