Science fiction has a very important role in the plot of Dragon Ball, since Akira Toriyama incorporated an element as disruptive as time travel. Trunks appeared in the franchise to reveal a timeline disastrous where all the Z Fighters died at the hands of the terrible androids.
That machine invented by Bulma to change the era was also used in Dragon Ball Z: Atsumare! Goku World, a video game released for the Terebikko console in 1992. The Japanese were the only ones lucky enough to enjoy this content which, among other things, contained a lot footage made directly by Toei Animation.
The idea behind the project was that the device could be used as a toy telephone, which received calls from the characters in the different games. In this way you can interact with them to answer the questions they ask, all with an educational tone and aimed at the little ones. Packaged on a VHS tape, the title proposes time travel at different times in Dragon Ball history.
The first stop is made by Goku, Trunks, Gohan, Bulma and Krillin at the time when the two disciples of Master Mutenroshi were training hard with him when they were children. The funny thing is that, even though Trunks asks that they not interact with the past versions of him, Goku doesn’t pay any attention and starts chatting with himself. Here you can see the moment from minute 3:47.
“Good, good. You will grow very strong,” encourages older Goku to his younger self in a scene that could turn the space-time continuum upside down. Seeing that interaction, Trunks lunges at Goku and pushes him away from himself. to avoid trouble, while reminding you to avoid any direct contact with your past.
The little Goku demonstrates his naivety by not realizing who was really talking to him, so he quickly forgets the matter and the universe remains at peace. A funny anecdote that very few users saw, but over the years it has spread to other countries to make us laugh.
