While Goku and Chi-Chi don’t have the best marriage, in Dragon Ball, the origins of their relationship may be even more troublesome and much darker than fans remember. Even more so if you look at them from a more current perspective, this does not mean that the work was with a negative intention, but the vision of its author corresponded to that of his time.
Goku and Chi-Chi have been together for most of their adult lives, and after getting married, Goku and Chi-Chi started a family by having two sons, Gohan and Goten. While Goku is a Saiyan, Chi-Chi is fully human, so her children became a mix of the two species while having access to all the powers of a pure-blooded Saiyan. Once their children entered their lives, the difference in priorities between Goku and Chi-Chi became apparent., as Goku wanted to train his sons and help them master their Saiyan powers, while Chi-Chi was primarily focused on their education and wanted them to be people who could grow up and get well-paying jobs. Although Chi-Chi is depicted as an ordinary person in her adult life, she was originally a fearsome warrior when she was a child and was even able to best Goku on one occasion, although that story is much more tragic than expected. what it seems
As we mentioned, much of Akira Toriyama’s humor was derived from his work on Dr. Slump, a play in which Arale was a robot girl and was taken care of by her father/inventor, however the way of introducing his jokes corresponds to the sensibilities of the time and this is demonstrated in Dragon Ball Akira Toriyama Chapter 12, when Goku and Bulma are traveling the world until they come across a mountain ruled by a monstrous man named Gyuumaou who initially attacks Goku and Bulma before realizing who Goku was. Gyuumaou met Goku’s grandfather Gohan before the world-renowned martial artist passed away prior to the events of the series. Since he was related to an old friend, Gyuumaou asked Goku to do him a favor and in return, he would give Bulma the Dragon Ball they were looking for..
Gyuumaou needed a mystically endless source of water to extinguish the fires surrounding his mountain from Master Roshi, and asked Goku to get it for him. However, Gyuumaou already sent his daughter Chi-Chi to retrieve that very thing, so he also asked Goku to make sure Chi-Chi returned home safely after completing the task. When Goku was looking for Master Roshi, he saw Chi-Chi and offered to take her to Roshi’s before returning her home. Although his initial approach was chivalrous, Goku inadvertently attacked Chi-Chi by grabbing her crotch to see if she was a boy or a girl based solely on her anatomy..
Chi-Chi was shocked and humiliated by this action and punches Goku in the face, telling him that what he did was not right. However, after Chi-Chi scolded Goku for his inappropriate actions, she perceived Goku’s assault as meaning that the two are now together romantically. Chi-Chi believed that since Goku touched her that way, she had to become his girlfriend, which eventually happens. Looking at it from a more contemporary perspective, this could be somewhat problematic.even if it is one more “Toriyama-style joke in Dragon Ball”.
The strange relationship between Chi-Chi and Goku in Dragon Ball
Chi-Chi and Goku have perhaps one of the worst relationships in Dragon Ball history, as Goku time and time again expresses no interest in spending time with her as she constantly pressures him to stop fighting altogether and get a job. soul sucker. Basically, they seem to be completely incompatible. While their relationship may seem untenable and downright weird, their origins are actually much worse than the current state of their marriage.
Looking back at this opening chapter of Dragon Ball, it appears that Goku and Chi-Chi’s engagement started unofficially when Goku sexually assaulted Chi-Chi and then Chi-Chi mistook that assault for real feelings. which made her feel compelled to marry Goku. Incredibly troublesome and shocking origin that is much darker than most Dragon Ball fans know.
