Trunks is a character from Dragon Ball Z. There are two versions of the same character, one that came from the future to warn them about the dangers ahead and the Trunks that grew up in a timeline where future Trunks' influence changed things.

Canon

He appears for the first time after the Namek Arc as a mysterious youth that can transform into a super saiyajin and cut Frieza and his father in two with a sword. Trunks shocked the audience when he revealed to be the son of Bulma and Vegeta that came from a dystopian future timeline where new enemies had killed everyone except himself and his mother. This revelation occurred during a time when Vegeta, previously portrayed as a villain, had switched sides into an uneasy alliance with the Z Fighters to combat a mutual enemy. Despite living in Capsule Corp, Bulma's house, Vegeta exhibited little interest in romance, while Bulma was in a relationship with Yamcha at the time. This caused fans to speculate how things would change, for Trunks to be born in two years and a half from that moment.

Fandom

In the Dragon Ball fandom, fans typically refer to the Trunks from the future timeline as "Mirai Trunks" to distinguish him from the Trunks of the present timeline. The Trunks from the present timeline is often simply referred to as "Trunks" or "Present Trunks" to avoid confusion.
