Name a worse couple. Toriyama literally did this shit to "punish himself".

They were alright in Z. Shitper ruined them by proxy when it turned Goku into a garbage character.

>>279837693 (OP)
I don't get why he kept her. Toriyama pretty much got rid of most of the chinese shit after Z.
Tien, Oolong, Oozaru, extending pole, nimbus cloud...
I guess he didn't want to add shit like divorce.

He had a bizarre sense of humor.

>>279837693 (OP)
Or he just thought it was funny and relatable.

>>279838999
his sense of humor was literally shit
he loved poop jokes

>>279838999
Get the fuck out and eat a tide pod, you retarded anti natalist moralfaggot.

>>279837889
excuse me but senileyama told me goku is a battle freak that cant feel any true feeling of friendship, family or love. your pic must be a fake.

>>279837889
Pierce, nooooo

>>279837693 (OP)
The TV adaptation ruined Chichi. She's not that annoying in the manga.

>>279839975
Fuck Senileyama. He wasn't even the same man by then.

Toriyama was fully aware that he's shit at writing romance, which is why he skipped it.

>>279840609
Bulma would've led to a more fun series overall.

>>279840609
more than being shit at it, he just didnt like it
I guess he was kinda like goku lol
>romance? bonding love? wtf is that shit?
>a strong enemy? now that gets me excited!

>>279840609

Suddenly I realize that Goku is like Toriyama self-insert, and Vegeta is his editor lol

Only reason Goku got married was so he could have a son. There is a single moment of affection shared between him and ChiChi. There’s a reason this all happened off screen, no one can imagine Goku having sex or being romantic

>>279840609
Funny thing is: Toriyama was great friends with Katsura, who made two classic Shonen Jump romance mangas (Video Girl and I's). Katsura hated romance too. He only made them because Torishima (the "T"), who was also Toriyama's editor, forced him to lol

>>279840609
And he still did a better job at romance than Kishimoto ever did. Gohan and Videl shit over any pairing from Naruto.
>>279840691
I don't think it would've changed the series that much. Bulma still managed to remain as relevant as possible without marrying Goku.

Goku's marriage is completely unbelievable and literally founded on manipulation when he didn't understand it.

Kazuya and Chizuru
