Miscellaneous Facts about the Quartet
I have a bunch of random facts that are canon to me about my Pan, Bulla, Kuriza, and Cell Junior. A lot of them will never see the light of day in my series, so I might as well jot them down here.
Bulla likes collecting old school, 'retro' technology and toys (e.g. lollipop phones, password-locked diaries etc.)
Junior enjoys listening to Nicki Minaj (the only real-world pop star with a counterpart in the DB world)
Kuriza doesn't know the specifics of Arcosian asexual reproduction
Kuriza's favourite planet before Earth was Freeza Planet 32, a planet full of tall trees and luscious rainforest
Pan dislikes her mother's cooking even though Gohan loves it
Pan has a bigger manipulative streak than Bulla, contrary to popular belief
Junior is a prodigy at anything arts related
In terms of combat power, from weakest to strongest: Pan, Kuriza, Bulla, Junior
In terms of battle prowess/technique, from weakest to strongest: Kuriza, Bulla, Pan, Junior
Junior is the fusion that resulted from all the Cell Juniors on Monster Island fusing into one (after seeing Trunks and Goten do the fusion dance during their time there) and then never unfusing due to them all being genetically identical
Junior has a bigger appetite than the others
Kuriza has the smallest appetite
Kuriza enjoys seafood the best
Bulla's favourite colour is pink
Junior knows exactly how Arcosian asexual reproduction goes, but he won't tell Kuriza about it
Junior doesn't enjoy spending time with Pan's family because he feels Gohan and Videl don't like him
Pan's favourite food are the burgers from Mr Satan World (a fast food chain her family owns)
As of Dominion, Pan is the only one of the quartet to attend a regular human school
Bulla was pulled out of kindergarten at a young age as she was too ahead of her peers and could not connect with them
Junior, Bulla, and Kuriza attend school together at Capsule Corp., taught by specialised teachers hired and thoroughly screened by Bulma herself
Kuriza got into Freeza's wine stash once and got absolutely wasted over half a bottle of it
Pan has a wide collection of fictional books and a whole section of her family's library dedicated to them
Bulla is not interested in fiction, and only reads non-fiction
Junior wants to learn electric guitar
Junior thinks skateboarding is cool, but also thinks it doesn't go fast enough
Junior plans to attach rocket boosters to a skateboard at some point and try it out
The one who does best at traditional schooling is Pan
In terms of raw intelligence, however, Bulla is unchallenged
Bulla struggles to feel empathy
Socially, Pan is the most well-adjusted
Bulla listens to Ann Azuki, even though she is considered to be outdated and about to retire from the idol scene
Pan likes ballads
Kuriza likes instrumental music
Both Bulla and Junior have photographic memories
Junior does the best in high-pressure situations
The one with the shortest temper is Bulla, though she is quick to forgive and forget in most circumstances
Pan has a slow, deep style of anger that takes a while to manifest; she holds grudges and will not usually forgive people who have wronged her
Pan is the reigning champion of the Junior Division (which made a return after the 28th) from the 29th to 30th World Tournament, securing her latest title just months before the events of Dominion
Junior spent approximately 4 years in the wild by himself before he was discovered by Android 17
Kuriza was born from Freeza alone, an outlier in Arcosian reproduction as asexual reproduction is a last resort of their species; despite this, they are somehow not genetically identical
Bulla and Kuriza are baseball fans, much to Yamcha's bemusement (but overall delight)
Pan loves and respects martial arts the most out of all of them
Pan is the only one of the quartet to have friends outside of their group
Junior has a phone that has a cover with the pattern of Cell's skin on it

The seven Cell Juniors are still alive, as seen in the Dragon Ball Super manga.
Assuming they have all the capabilities of the original Cell, that means that these seven are capable of reproducing. Or, if they aren’t now at their “runty kid” size, they will be at some point in the future.
How long in the future? Well, I’d guess probably about 20 years after they were born, because the original Cell took about 20 years to develop from the “fetus in a tube” stage seen in Dr. Gero’s lab to a fully-formed Imperfect Cell. Cell, and thus the Cell Juniors, have a lot of Saiyan DNA in them which probably means they’ll stay “kid-like” for most of that time and then suddenly have a growth spurt around the 18-20 mark.
The tournament at the end of Dragon Ball Z, where Goku meets Uub, is 10 years after the Buu Saga. Which is 7 years after the Cell Saga. So... the Cell Juniors should be “grown-up” just a few years after the end of the series.
And then maybe they’ll start making some Cell Juniors of their own.
Every 20 years or so there’ll be at least another half-dozen Cell Juniors, even if only one of each generation chooses to make more. They’re born fully independent and enormously powerful, so nothing on Earth is going to be capable of eating them or otherwise killing them (unless one goes rogue and is noticed by powerful characters like Android 17, Goku, Vegeta, etc.) And they probably have a lifespan of at least a few hundred years, considering that Dr. Gero included the DNA of long-lived species like the Namekians (who can live to 400+ easily) and Freeza’s race (unknown lifespan, but probably long based on what we’ve seen) and Cell seems to take after the “best/strongest” features of every species’ DNA he’s made up of.
So...
In the not too distant future, Earth will be populated by a whole new species: hundreds or even thousands of weird little blue genetically-engineered bugmen.
