Yeah, it's good that I'm losing my last morals squicks and if the BanGin turns 'cesty...GO WITH THE FLOW. Especially since A&A-sensei very well will do it just to screw with our heads. (Me, my biggest fear is that one or both of them will not survive the manga's end. Just because Aoki-sensei's sekkrit wish is to be crushed to death by hoardes of insane fangirls...) ...OTOH they could be doing the brother-hint teasing just to screw with our heads. Who knows? They could always change their mind the last minute, the way they write...
Concerning your note on parents in animanga (shounen especially) - that's one thing that makes Dragonball stand out - one of the series' main themes is father-son relationships, a variety of them, in which both sires and offspring are main chars, and the parent is changed by having a child as much as the child is affected by their parent. (and if you read Toriyama-sensei's authors notes about when his kids were born, the sudden prevalence of such themes halfway through the series makes sense...)
