No she just won. They caught her off guard a few times because she expected a human was her opponent at first and if she killed her opponent she would be disqualified and not get any money. When they went Super Saiyan they caught her off guard with powerful and fast Ki Blast but she avoided it and figured out who they were and sliced them in half with a Disk revealing they two people. They fought her for a few more seconds before being disqualified and flying off.

Pretty reckless really, if she had been mistaken and it was a normal guy it would have been a gruesome ending.

Or, hell, if she hadn't gone perfectly in between Goten and Trunks with her destructo disc. Would have made weekends at Kame House pretty awkward.

He is also much more whinny and childish then the Arrogant, Cocky and also childish (but not as much as Goten Trunks.)

According to Piccolo Gotenks other then his power took only the worst traits of his two components. Thus we got a dumb, foolish, whinny, childish, arrogant, cocky hero.

Who ultimately got nothing done in the end.

If Piccolo is going to get a big hero moment in Revival of F like the old movies, I hope it's to rescue Pan and or Videl. It be a nice continuation of one of the biggest traditions in the series.

You know, everyone always talks about how Goku is a crappy dad and how Piccolo was more of a father to Gohan, but I can't help but wonder if that was partially because Piccolo never really had a father himself.

I hope he swoops in and rescues Gohan. Adult Gohan, right in front of his wife and daughter. Then Piccolo will be all "Come on, man! You used to BE somebody." Then the fish jumps.

Piccolo started off his Father of the Year career by kidnapping Gohan and forcing him to learn survival skills on the fly.

I guess he was at least watching the entire time.

DBZ opens with Gohan loose in the forest about to be eaten by a tiger. Goku is miles away, eventually he uses the dragon radar to locate Gohan's dumb hat with the four star ball on it, being worn by a tiger. Goku plays friendly neighbor with the tiger, only using his grown up voice when it refuses to tell him where Gohan is. I doubt Goku ever considered the tiger could have eaten his child, Goku's experience with nature has always been "animals don't eat people, people eat animals." Adult supervision when wrestling a T-Rex is indeed a step up.

That tiger knew Goku'd gently caress him up if it really ate Gohan.

Kid trunks is basically the result of his upbringing. Being raised by the richest/second richest family in the world (Mr. Satan might have become richer than the Briefs post-Cell) and by Vegeta to boot turned him into an entitled little poo poo instead of the stone cold badass that grew up in a world terrorized by unbeatable cyborgs.

Goten was conceived during the Cell Games, so no, Future Trunks will have no Goten to pal around with.

It isn't really explained, but my pet theory is that becoming a super saiyan allows you to pass the transformation down. (Vegeta in the main timeline would have been inspired by Future Trunks' appearance to become a super saiyan earlier than he did in Future Trunks' timeline.)

Pretty much. The sons inherited their fathers' higher strengths.

In Original Trunks' timeline, Vegeta never prepared for the androids, and thus, didn't power up as much, and Goten was never conceived.

I hope there's photos of Gohan and Videl's wedding that show Piccolo being the weird weepy father and being in more photos than Goku because Goku didn't even go.
