Saadi Butt I agree on the door. As for them being machines depend on the definition of the word. If we use the definition "an apparatus consisting of interrelated parts with separate functions, used in the performance of some kind of work" we could say that they are indeed machines, but it would also include any other organism and I doubt you had this definition in mind. Any other definition refers to an mechanical apparatus. I also should have clarified my problem in your statment was more with you saying they are "metal machines"wich they aren't, just humans with cybernetic and bio-mechanical enhancements.

[@LucianUchiha]

Well, Bulma did completely reverse alien technology capable of rapid intergalactic travel and built not only a working prototype but also included a gravity altering machine that was built inside of that machine in like...2 weeks. If she was inclined to build Androids or alter humans into making them Cyborgs, I would have to hazard a guess that her first iterations would be stronger than Imperfect Cell

pretty sure he can survive a shuttle crash. why even bother with apply our violence standards on this series in the first place. i'd think it'd be much worse if she didn't take her son anywhere with her or just stayed low somewhere. she's an adventurer and trunks is half-saiyan ffs

[@Xone9]

And the fact that if she hadn't shown up and Gero wouldn't have escaped and activated the androids?

[@20628]

Then they kill gero right away, the androids get shot through their containers, and all go home (then probably wait for cell to kill them) crisis averted. FIN. Yea but I get what you mean, that was a stupid twist to get them hurt and show how apathetic vegeta is at this stage. But thing is toriyama (and much of the generation of artists inspired by his gen.) doesn't think too hard about developing characterization beyond good character design and setup, doubly so with female characters. I think our grievances are actually the same thing from different angles: i dont see the problem with bulma checking out their enemies with trunks but I do think it's stupid how toriyama didn't care enough to at least maneuver this in a way that wouldn't make Bulma look thoughtless.
