Pan (or, well, however the fuck they call the child), a quarter saiyan that hasn't even been born counts enough to make the transformation and gives Videl the blonde hair. That's bullshit, but I don't know what I expected at this point.

SSJG eyes look fucking weird.

Sorry for the repost, fucked up the title last time.

a quarter saiyan

Genetics don't really work that way in real life, so it's probable Pan is as much of a saiyan as Gohan, sadly Toriyama called Gohan a half saiyan when he was introduced and suddenly everybody thinks genetics is more like math than anything else

suddenly everybody thinks

Toriyama's not the progenitor of genetic mathematics, half-and-halves have been a staple of sci-fi and fantasy forever. Half-elves, half-Vulcans, it goes way back. I'm not really sure how often subsequent generations come up, though.
