Even though they were compatible and close from childhood until adulthood, Bulma and Goku ultimately could not be a couple. The person Bulma chose was Vegeta.
From the first episodes of Dragon Ball, Goku and Bulma are the two most popular main characters. They have experienced many different ups and downs in life, from when they were little children to when Goku and Bulma were both adults. Together, we experience humorous and exciting moments, up to even cosmic-level disasters that seem impossible to solve.
It was thought that with so many memories, when a man and a woman were together for such a long time, they would also develop feelings for each other. But in the end, Bulma and Goku couldn’t become a couple? After all, Bulma ended up choosing Vegeta over Goku?
Just as carefree as Son Goku
The answer is very simple because this can never happen, because according to the story line drawn by artist Akira Toriyama, this couple can only become sister and brother.
If you remember at the beginning of the series, Bulma once considered exchanging “showing off” in exchange for Goku’s dragon ball. But what was little Goku’s response at that time?
Very surprising, but true to his “stupid” nature, Goku not only refused, but also laughed and mocked the beautiful Capsule girl. After that, Goku even slept on a sensitive position on Bulma’s body in a way that couldn’t be more weird. There’s even no curiosity about gender, so what’s the point of being in love? Because of this, the two became close and did not shy away from each other about anything.
Even though they are very close and understand each other, they are really just soulmates
At the time he met Bulma, Goku was still an immature boy, and even when he grew up, he was still quite stupid. This is probably the characteristic personality of this main character. In addition, Bulma was “in love” with Yamcha from the first meeting until later. As for after that, everything was arranged when Goku married Chichi, and Vegeta became Bulma’s husband.
Vegeta has captured Bulma’s heart thanks to his personality and strength
It can be said that, unlike his martial arts talent and strength improvement that always follows Goku, in love affairs Vegeta seems to be a guy with the ability to “kill women” and grasp women’s psychology well. Much better than the “silly” guy Goku. For that reason, after a period of contact, Bulma agreed to marry Vegeta even though she previously hated the Saiyan prince.
They are a pair of good friends who bring excitement to Dragon Ball
However, this is not necessarily a bad thing. In fact, with their carefree relationship, Bulma and Goku have been and will become good friends until the end of their lives. This is truly a very precious “Soulmate” relationship in life.
