    Well ..... if we assume genetics in DB universe work like real life ones, option B is impossible.

    Wikipedia entry about recessive traits:
    "If a genetic trait is recessive, a person needs to inherit two copies of the gene for the trait to be expressed. Thus, both parents have to be carriers of a recessive trait in order for a child to express that trait."

    When it comes to tails, Goku (father) had a tail, Gohan (firstborn son) had a tail, but Goten (second son) didn't have one. Chichi was a pure human. A and D are the most possible options.

    Who cares about Kai? The Funimation Remastered Edition is superior is every way. Well, at least in my opinion.

    I prefer the voice acting and music in the first actually. And as for comparing visuals, no way is the remastered edition that bad. That is simply a bad quality youtube upload.

    Don't like Vegetas voice in Kai at all, and the dialogue is way worse.

    For me the music in the first gives so much more emotion to the scenes than the original Japanese tracks.

    Yeah, Vegeta said so himself, Gohan lost a lot of power because he didn't keep training.

    I think if I was Goku, I'd be pissed. Here I am, I sacrifice myself so you can prove yourself and protect the world now and you drop the ball. Thanks. /childabuse

    And then while Goku is busy being dead, Chi Chi of all people trains Goten all the way to Super Saiyan. I really want to know how the hell he pulled that off.

    Well, he did "play fight" with Trunks ALOT. It's not Chi-Chi who trained him, but he trained by sparring with Trunks.

    Two kid Super Saiyans rough-housing, one of which can't even control Ki-Attacks yet... how did the Earth survive? You'd think they'd be blowing crap up all the time.
