yea it is. again, vegeta changes as much and he's like 10 years older than goku so he shouldn't have done by your own rules (goku was like 24 when he fought vegeta so he'd have to be at least 30). everyone bulked up in the cell saga. they got a little less so in the buu saga and then super slimmed everyone down even more

fighting piccolo at the tournament is before dbz started and honestly I don't remember if he changed any between then and raditz

Vegeta arrived on November 3, Age 762. Goku was born on April 16, 736 according to Jaco the Galactic Patrolman or 737 according to Daizenshuu 7; while Vegeta was born on Age 732, unknown day.

As such, Goku was either 26 (Toriyama's revised timeline) or 27 (original timeline) while Vegeta was around 30. Vegeta is not ten years older than Goku, only 4 or 5.

Hard to say. Planet Vegeta was destroyed in Age 737 (Bardock) or Age 739 (Minus), so Vegeta was any age between 0 and 5/7.

Sometimes Bulma looks like a middle aged woman. At the very least she doesn't look 16 anymore like she did up until Namek.

I think a total of 8; 1 for the Saiyan Saga, 7 for Buu.

Closer to nine.

A year for Raditz, about eight for Cell.

Maybe the reason why characters have stopped aging is because they all died and got revived, and it hosed with their cellular degeneration.

utilizing destruction energy must do something to stop your aging too because it was floated as a real thing vegeta and goku could do but like it'd be kinda pointless if they died in a few decades

Oh yeah, I remember that. This legendary mythical artifact, and it's just thrown out casually that Roshi's found it. It's like if one episode they went to his house and he was using the holy grail as an ashtray.

Dude actually has 3 different methods for immortality and eternal youth, which shows an incredible amount of forward thinking on his part.

Beyond the fountain of youth he also had a Phoenix at one point before it died, and eats the super dank weed we saw in Super. All these villains are always going on about getting the Dragonballs for immortality and this guy manages to do it 3 times over without that hassle.

Paying attention to only Team U7 here:
-All Saiyans age much slower than humans do, keeping at their peak even in their 80s according to Vegeta. Whether they live longer is likely an unknown even for them since Saiyans likely died more in combat than by old age.
-17 and 18, as Androids, age extremely slowly and may not age at all, depending on which material we're paying attention to now.
-Roshi is immortal age-wise due to consuming extreme amounts of weed, drinking off the fountain of youth, and having a literal phoenix as a pet, maybe others.
-Piccolo is also immortal and can't age due to his dad wishing for eternal youth on the Dragon Balls, which he inherited due to being a clone of him.
-Both Gods of Creation such as Shin and Destruction such as Beerus have extremely long lifespans, millenia at least, but are not immortal. Angels like Whis, however, most likely are completely immortal.
-Tenshinhan and Krillin will die before any of their friends and loved ones do.

They actually did do a joke like that when they needed the Bansho Fan to remove the fire from the Ox Kings mountain. Turned out Master Roshi had been using it as a table cloth while having hot pot, spilled on it and thrown it away when he couldn't get the stains off.

17 and 18 probably should age, since they were originally human, but whatever Nanomachines Bullshit that Gero put them on probably includes "make cells last forever" on its infinite energy list. I'm not even sure that they strictly need to eat or sleep, if they don't feel like it. They can still get hurt, though, like when 18 hosed up her ankle.

They do not need to eat, but they do need to hydrate. Kind of like Piccolo.

...you know, most of their modifications are biological as opposed to mechanical, maybe they're a bit like Cell themselves and just have Namekian and other poo poo spliced into them.

Hi!
When I originally read the Dragonball Z comic I used to think Goku not aging much was because he had drunk from the ultra divine water back earlier in the series. But then Toriyama made Vegeta say some stuff about Sayians just being like that and that's that.
And I'm the only idiot that remembers the divine water.
