Also, funnily enough, Gohan and Pan barely interact in SH, so I don't even know what did you meme by that desu.

SH should have leaned in a bit more on the insecurities, the anxiousness and the fear that a father experiences when their child is kidnapped.
It would have felt more impactful and would have been more memorable that way. To me anyway.

Can't really agree with that.
This is a perfectly rational situation. You don't need to see Pan and Gohan talk 24/7 to know that they interacted multiple times given they live with Videl in one same house. It doesn't feel like an asspull to me or anything.
To each their own though, I'll agree to disagree.

>tho did those moments actually happen and that's why Gohan's so strongly affected?
Yes. Again, that's the entire point here.
Shapeshifting enemy turns into Pan and reenacts everyday chitchat to damage Gohan and make him lose his will to fight.

>is pan dead?
Yeah, she was killed near the beginning in this manga. Bringing her back is one of the driving forces of the Z Warriors in this continuity.

>that's kinda the thing with Dragonball tho we don't need to see their everyday lives to know these people care about each
The manga doesn't go into SoL mode at any point, perhaps it's a bit too straightforward in that regard.
I agree with you though. Like I said above, you don't need to see Pan and Gohan talk 24/7 to know that they interacted multiple times.
