Dragon Ball Z Cosplay Focuses on The Trunks From The Future

Trunks has remained a major part of the Dragon Ball franchise since first hitting the series as a part of Dragon Ball Z. With his future self’s status up in the air, the current Trunks is set to take the lead in the latest arc of Dragon Ball Super’s manga, but one cosplayer has decided to revisit the past by calling on the future. While the current series gave us a new take on Future Trunks, his original aesthetic remains a fan favorite.     

Future Trunks’ status remains a mystery at this time, following his big return during the events of the Goku Black Arc. Following the defeat of the rogue Kaioshin known as Zamasu, the alternate Trunks saw his timeline destroyed and returned to a future that already had a version of himself around. At present, we haven’t seen how this Trunks and his “kind of sort of” girlfriend Mai are acclimating to this new timeline, though we wouldn’t be surprised to see the Z-Fighter make a return at some point in the future of Dragon Ball Super.

Dragon Ball Cosplayer Jyaibo Tenor took the opportunity to bring Future Trunks’ original fit back from the dead, as Dragon Ball Super not only gave the Z-Fighter from the future a new outfit but also changed his hair color as the threat of Goku Black loomed large in this unique time-spanning arc:

In the latest manga arc, the Trunks of our timeline is holding a similarity with his future self, in that he has a serious crush on Mai. Of course, there are two big problems with this infatuation, the first being that she is a member of Pilaf’s crew and the second being that she is actually older than Goku and Vegeta thanks in part to the de-aging that transformed her and the Pilaf gang into children. With Trunks and Goten patrolling the city streets as the new superheroes in town, Saiyaman X1 and Saiyaman X2, it would seem that Dragon Ball Super’s manga will be following their exploits for the foreseeable future.
