Trunks (トランクス, Torankusu) is a fictional character from the Dragon Ball franchise created by Akira Toriyama. In the story, Trunks is Son Goten’s friend and the child of Bulma and Vegeta, the prince of a fictional race of extraterrestrials called Saiyans.

Trunks first appears in the Android Saga as an infant, where he is revealed to be the son of Bulma and Vegeta.

Years later in the Majin Buu Saga Trunks is shown to be able to transform into a Super Saiyan a transformation that was thought only to be attainable through intensive training of the body and emotions. He trains with his father, Vegeta for the Tenkaichi Budokai, a martial arts tournament that occurs every three to five years in the series. In the tournament, Trunks easily breezes through the kid’s division of the tournament, and defeats his friend, Son Goten in the finals.

After the tournament, Trunks and Goten watch as Vegeta fights the recently released Majin Buu. Trunks and Goten attempt to help Vegeta but are knocked out by Vegeta and taken away by Piccolo and Krillin as Vegeta sacrifices himself in an attempt to kill Buu. However, the effort is in vain as Buu regenerates while Vegeta dies from the aftershock of the attack.

In a desperate attempt to save the world from Buu, Son Goku teaches Goten and Trunks a technique that allows them to fuse into Gotenks. He uses his fusion with Goten to battle Buu several times, even attaining Super Saiyan 3. However, Gotenks was not powerful enough to defeat Buu and was absorbed. Trunks and Goten are rescued from Buu by Goku and Vegeta, but are killed when Kid Buu destroys the Earth. Trunks is later brought back to life by the Dragon Balls, along with the rest of Earth’s inhabitants, to give energy to Goku’s Genki Dama attack. The attack manages to destroy Buu and Trunks returns to a normal life on Earth.

In Dragon Ball Z: Wrath of the Dragon, Trunks befriends Tapion, who gives Trunks a sword.

In Dragon Ball GT, Trunks, Goku and Pan, travel to various planets in search of the Black Star Dragon Balls. He also participates in battles against fictional supervillains such as the space parasite Babi, the artificial human Super 17 and the evil dragon, Yi Xing Long.

COMMENT:

I fell in love with Trunks the first time I laid my eyes on him. Yes, I was in love. LOL. I’ve always wanted a silent-typed of a guy, mysterious and serious looking eyes. I don’t know if this kind of “my type of a guy” thing started from this character – Trunks. I’ve been supporting Trunks with all my might in every battles he encountered. I never missed a chance to shed a tear for him. LOL. I’ll be very emotional when it comes to Trunks; every time a tear falls down unto his face, I shed a tear for him too. HAHAHAHA. I’m still a very young girl at that time too. If normal little girls fall in love in their ‘boy next door’ guys, well then, maybe I’m crazy. Since all the boys that I fell in love with when I was a kid, isn’t even alive, just drawn on papers and with the help of computers, they are able to move – anime. Well, Trunks is one of them. Trunks is also one of the strongest characters in Dragon Ball Z, the fact that he is the only son of Vegeta (prince of the Saiyan) and not only he’s strong but also he inherited the intelligence of his mother Bulma (daughter of a great scientist).
