Piccolo Daimao > Piccolo Jr.

Yeah, That was one of his main goals.
Once upon a time, there used to be a signature. Then it got lame, and now I'm out of options for a new one.

Yeah i know right?
I dont get how they chose what timeline to go back to? It doesnt really make sense.
I think he chose´d the one who is smiliar to his... Well, But how can he know? Lol, He might end up in a timeline where Goku didn´t hit the stone and wrecked the planet LMAO.
LMAO...
DB,DBZ,DBGT= EPIC FAIL! lol

But with all seriousness, This is a very complex topic in which i do not have the brain power to formulate an opinion.

But when dealing with traveling to a different time era, the theory of the multiverse must also be involved.... i think.

Try learning facts instead of spurting out incorrect garbage based on your own personal and unexperienced opinions.

time has 2 dimensions forwardback sideside. trunks goes back in time his jumps sideways to altered branch because his ship made it when cell stole it,so it always goes there when he goes back. he knew that, but he expected to cause the branch so everything should be just about the same so he could train under the masters and beat the androids there then go home and save his present. cell f'd that up by going 1 year further back and causing all those changes before trunks evn got there.
list of canon sources:

the DB manga, and the Dr. Slump manga as it applies to the crossover during the rra saga.

list of non canon sources:

everything else, regardless of origin, format, or quality.

for those that blindly follow word of god

According to one theory in the science community the first poster would be right. That the past should change the future.

There are other theories however that reason that even if somehow you could go to the past it might not effect the future.


There are many differing types of theories. Toriyama clearly obliged to take the path where the past does not effect the future and that Trunks actually created a differing timeline than the timeline he time traveled too.


Totally logical and totally plausible to current line of thinking of traveling into the past. This is not really a big issue IMO but I understand the complexities of time travel and how interesting the issues that go with it are.

Gohan: “Umm…I was thinking…if Trunks does go to the past and destroy the androids…what’s going to happen to the androids in the present? Are they going to disappear?”

Trunks: “Oh…That’s right…! The future of that timeline would be saved from the androids…but there’d be no change in this timeline where the androids already exist!”

Krillin: “…? Wh-What do you mean?”

Trunks: ”Okay…For example…Your Goku’s life was saved by the medicine I brought from the future…but in my timeline, Goku still died from the disease. In other words, there’s both a future in which Goku has died…and one in which he lived. Each change in the past creates new futures.”

Krillin: “Then…even if Goku defeats the androids here…wouldn’t they still exist in your future?”

Trunks: “That’s right…”
