The second trailer of the movie _Dragon Ball Super: Broly_ seems to show Goku
and Vegeta were born at the same time.

Is this so, didn't the series state differently? If so, which version of
_Dragon Ball_ story would be canon now, the series or this movie?

Are Vegeta and Goku of the same age, or do they have several years of difference?


There is no doubt that Vegeta is older as Goku was only an infant (about 0-1
yr old) when he was sent to Earth, while Vegeta was already fighting in
another planet (about 5 yrs old), so Vegeta is about 5 yrs older than Goku.

Note however, that both Goku and Vegeta have died several times (both twice I
think) and both have trained in the "Spirit and Time Room"* where staying 1
day is equal to 1 year in the outside/real world. So their physical bodies are
several years younger than their actual ages.

*I don't know how they translate this in the English dub/sub, but this is how I would based on the original Japanese 精神と時の部屋.

It does not necessarily show that both Goku and Vegeta were born in the same
year in the new movie. It is mever shown that Goku and Vegeta are both in
saiyan incnbators at the same time so they are not the same age. Even if they
are in incubators at the same time one may be in for a longer period in
comparison to the other. When Goku was in an incubator it was shown that
Vegeta was on another planet with Nappa as their home planet got destroyed.
While Vegeta was on anothet planet it was shown that Goku was still in an
incubator and then Bardock decied to put him in a pod and send him to Earth
where he may lived safely.

Also, Vegeta was said to be born in the Year 732 while Goku in 737 so Vegeta
is 5 years older than Goku.

However, the time both have spent in the Hyperbolic time chamber make them a
year older than they actually should have been and if you want to classify it
as this then you can. Their physical bodies are older than their actual ages.
