Not seeing anything in the narrative that separates Mecha arc Trunks and Android arc Trunks. There is no intention in the story itself for Mecha arc Trunks to be any different than Android arc Trunks. They are treated exactly the same power wise by all characters. |

Android-arc Vegeta > Android-arc Goku > mecha-arc Goku > mecha-arc Trunks > Namek-arc Goku. Vegeta tried to lose Trunks via speed while they were looking for Gero's lab and he couldn't. That would be utterly pathetic on Vegeta's part if Trunks is still the same as he was three years prior. |

Trunks didn't even spend 3 years in his timeline. It was 8 months, if I remember correctly since that's how long it takes to gather fuel for the time machine. Vegeta not losing Trunks says nothing from a narrative standpoint. It was already established that Vegeta's capabilities were greater than Trunks', so we already have a case of a stronger character not completely outpacing a weaker character in pure speed. It doesn't mean anything. The intention of that scene wasn't to show any "improvement" on Trunks' part. |

They are. Nothing in the narrative separates Trunks from the Mecha and Android arc. The only one's making distinctions are fans for the sake of power level charts. They are meant to be treated as the same. |

And Toriyama told you that, right? |

Nothing in the narrative points to them being any different. That's all there is to it. Toriyama doesn't need to personally say anything. It's common sense. |

SSJ Trunks, although a step behind, is considered comparable to Android Arc SSJ Goku and SSJ Vegeta. ...with all 3 being grouped above Android Arc Piccolo. @Topic: If I simply doubled Goku's Namek power... I'd end up with: [Namek] SSJ2 Goku: 15 [Android] SSJ Trunks: 14 Goku's victory in my books. |

I'd like to see what version of the manga you own, because clearly it's some shoddy bootleg that's missing all of the pages. |

There's no need for Trunks to be so much stronger. |

It's heavily implied by him effortlessly roasting a Freeza that's touted as being strong enough to beat the Goku that beat him. |

I guess, well I'll have to make the strain sap less power but I still have Goku winning as of now. |

5 times multiplier? No wonder everyone is freaking out, i only have it as a double. Gohan's is larger but the added Bonus was from his "Hidden Power" or "Super Saiyan Rage Mode" as some affectionately call it. |

Not to mention that Trunks, beforing traveling back in time, said the gap between him and the androids was huge, while Androids saga Trunks said he could fight the androids fairly well: Chapter: Trunks: the Story, P17.3 Context: Trunks is in hospital after losing to the androids. Trunks: “You were right… The gap between me and the androids was still huge…I think I’m lucky to have returned alive…” Later in the androids' arc: Chapter: 355 (DBZ 161), P8.5 Trunks: “They’re also somewhat different from the androids I know…They weren’t as outrageously strong as this…Even I could fight them fairly well…” Not to mention androids saga Trunks being lumped together with a 3 years trained Goku and Vegeta, while at Mecha saga, Trunks was visibly weaker than Goku, let alone a 3 years trained one. Later on, at Mirai #17 and #18's defeat, it's said the time machine takes 3 years to be ready for another time trip, so the amount of time Trunks spent in the future until the androids saga in the present isn't set either: ![]() Even if it were only 8 months, it doesn't get in the way of Trunks being way stronger. The amount of time is hardly a factor in anyone getting that strong, see Piccolo post six days at Kaio's planet. Edited by ahill1, Feb 13 2017, 09:46 PM.

Doesn't mean anything. You're just playing with the words. You can't define what "fairly well" means to Trunks. He could fight them "fairly well" compared to the ones that one shotted him. Those 2 statements don't clash in any way and the narrative doesn't hint at Trunks being much stronger in the Android arc if any at all. Mecha arc Trunks is the same as Android arc Trunks. |
