Why does Yamcha (and some of the other "forgotten" characters) stay on Earth? He's mocked and unimportant there, and will forever be in the shadows of the characters who have surpassed him. However, he's still in the 99.999th percentile in terms of power in the 7th Universe, and if he went out into space, possibly to join the Galactic Patrol, he could really make a difference and be a real hero. Tien has his Dojo I guess, and Krillin has a family, but what does Yamcha have on Earth? An ex-girlfriend? Puar? Puar can come with him anyway.
On Earth he's just a cheerleader, but out in space he could finally be somebody.
That would give the character a purpose besides comic relief AND would take away screentime from the two saiyans which no one who has something to say in these matters wants. Shit lets go even further with this. One could've made the entire cast more interesting for Super.
>Let Yamcha do exactly what you already wrote down but give also Tien a storyline about some quarels with his dojo. Introduce an enemy for both of them that is actually somewhere around their powerlevels and shed light on those characters a little. >Give 17 a story that sheds light on how he got this fucking strong, something actually interesting and believable, fucking try for a change Toriyama/Toyotaro. >Let Krillin and 17 guest star in those stories. >Give Gohan an arc where he relearns to use his mystic powers properly, maybe while to training on the Kai planet. >Give Piccolo something to do, he could come along, he was a god once after all so there might be new powers for him to learn too. >Meanwhile let Goku and Vegeta deal with the galactic threats, basically what they already did in Super. >Let them all meet up at the end for the universe survival arc. Shit would have been so much more epic that way.
Tyler Morris
No it fucking wouldn't.
Jackson Torres
Your teenage ass might not know this but there was a time before the saiyan show. All those characters are martial artists, they can deliver just the same stuff that Goku and Vegeta can, only on a lower scale and without changing hair colors. Give them the right enemies and they would be just as fun to watch.
Robert Harris
No, it wouldn't. They were always shit.

You haven't watched Dragon Ball have you?
Gabriel Watson
Yes, you fucking retard.

user you're trying to bring logic to Toriyama, who instead of making Yamcha a Boxer or MMA fighter into a Baseball player.

Tien and Krillin may have gotten great moments, but Yamcha was always shit comic relief.

Brody Campbell
Literally logged into my account just so I could say this post is based. Yamchads forever. We're gonna have our day bros
At the start of DBZ he was literally compared to Tien and was made to look like his rival. He had potential and still is a top tier fighter on a cosmic scale, despite all the shit that has happened to him.
Daniel Campbell
What a weird schizophrenic existence you are
Asher Perez
Yamcha was always sort of comic relief from the moment he was part of the main cast, but his real fall from grace didn't start until Z. He was fairly even with everyone else up to Saiyan arc and wasn't irrelevant as a fighter until Androids.
Michael Wood
The androids just blew the powerscale ridiculously out of proportion. It was made clear that humans just can't keep up anymore. DBS seems to backpaddle on that though so they might aswell do it properly. I would love to see the lower tier fighters have their own problems on earth while Goku and Vegeta go and handle all kinds of problems in the wider universe.
Michael Lopez
I think Yamcha literally just got memed into being a joke. He effortlessly beat the Saibamen but everyone acts like he got his ass handed to him. Chiaotzu even gets less shit than Yamcha for some reason.
I think what Super did right was throwing power levels out the window so we had actual meaningful moments like Trunks beating Zamasu rather than more muh powerwank shit. It was pretty smart to have the other ToP universes be equally matched in terms of having a few Goku tier guys and the rest human tier so everyone got the chance to have a good fight. Except Tien, who got fucked over, and Yamcha, who got turned into a gag character
Nicholas Rodriguez
>Yamcha was always sort of comic relief from the moment he was part of the main cast,
the opposite, he was sort of a comic relief before joining the main cast (back then when pretty much everyone in Dragon Ball was a gag character), then became the straight man during the 21st, Uranai and 22nd budokai arcs
Wyatt Campbell
>Chiaotzu even gets less shit than Yamcha for some reason. That's because people forget Chiaotzu even exists
>He effortlessly beat the Saibamen When your opponent's electrode uses explosion to KO both of you, it doesn't really matter if it was at full hp or 1 hp. You're both down a pokemon.

Lol what? Yamcha is 100x more relevant and important on earth then the others. Hes a fucking professional baseball player where as the others are big unga me smash moochers.
Unironically why do any of you guys actually like Jiren? Why do you suddenly just switch your favourite character to Le Strong New Character? You'll just drop him when the next arc arrives and someone more powerful shows up. Characterfagging for Jiren tells me that you have no loyalty or values. I guarantee that after the first arc of the next anime airs none of you will be on Jiren's dick anymore.
Not bad ideas, it really feels like all the side characters are just flat now.

Jayden Hernandez
they didn't throw power scaling out the window. Toryama even states in an interview that he considered power scaling for how the zamasu arc was handled
Because CHADren is redpilled. He understands that power is absolute, nothing can overcome true power. He also is a man that gets shit done, nobody can even stand up to him, other than goku who ass pulled a new technique that he can't even use anymore. He is just the ideal man, he doesn't concern himself with petty things such as being a father, having a job and living life, no he dedicates to his cause of finding absolute strength, and at this point he is the strongest mortal in the multiverse.

The bitch was constantly whining about "muh Gohan, muh education" so I at least hope she blew a million or two on guaranteeing Goten is educated in the finest private schools in the world.
That being said, we've never seen Chichi give even half a fuck about Goten's education, or Goten in general. Is this because Chichi hates him? False. It's because Toriyama is a hack who forced Goten into the story but has no fucking idea what to do with him. For all the impact he has had on the plot, Goten may as well not exist. >M-Muh Gotenks though Irrelevant.

Yamacha's not in the 99.999th percentile in terms of power. Plenty of Freeza's underlings would still be able to beat Yamcha today. Besides, the whole idea is ridiculous, why should he care if he's weak as fuck compared to a couple of space aliens? On earth, he can beat anyone outside the main cast.
The only thing I don't get is why the non-saiyan characters never bothered with learning techniques that would make them useful (kaio-ken, fusion, teleportation, god ki, etc). At least the manga gave Roshi a glimpse of UI.

You know that Yamcha used to be a pretty big deal for a while, right? Like, he *did* have his time in the sun.
Past the Saiyan arc, every character that wasn't Goku or Vegeta became obsolete. Gohan had a brief moment during the Cell saga, but beyond that, no one else really matters all the way up to the end of Super.
That's just how it is. Dragon ball is Son Goku's story, the side characters are just there to flesh it out, not because they matter.
You could have, like, a 12 episode spinoff or a single manga about Yamcha doing something like that - actually getting a life - but.. Would anything he did *really* matter? Because even the Galactic Patrol seems pretty pointless when Goku can just teleport to anywhere, flick the baddie on the nose and that's that, all in a day's work.
>it wouldn't matter because goku could win faster you can have good stories without power wank shit user. the Jaco series was really fun despite Jaco being human tier.
Very good video, and it brings up a number of things about the arc's structure and its elements that I hadn't really thought about before, like how fusion really did not matter all.
I still think the Buu saga was better than Cell's, though.
Dragonball is an ever expanding ensemble cast, this means that eventually will be deleted in favor of some other cunt unless your favorite character is begita or goku, enjoy.
Is it possible to convince certain anons, who are not in favor for DBGT, that whether they like it or not, DBGT is part of the DB series? I mean there would be no SS4 in DBH without DBGT.
>You don't want me to reverse search, better get to changing your filename Is that supposed to be a threat or something? Or just boundless autism over people saving pictures?

Fuck it. Pedospic, how the FUCK is GT canon? In what way do you think GT is canon when it has been stated by the creator of Dragonball HIMSELF that it isn't canon?
Don't argue with Panspic Deprave him of the attention he wants
Matthew Fisher
He probably would be in the 99.999th percentile, honestly. When the Saiyans attacked, his power level was on par with or slightly stronger than Raditz's, who seemed more-or-less average for a Saiyan, maybe a hair beyond that. So right off the bat, he would've been right at home among one of the strongest warrior races in the universe. But he also kept training until the Android Saga, so even if he peaked at where Krillin was at the end of Namek, the only guys in the original Freeza Force stronger than him were Freeze himself and the Ginyu Force. And considering the Androids thought he was Goku initially, he was probably beyond that. He could probably go off on world-saving adventures in most parts of the universe and not run into anyone he couldn't handle.
Samuel Nelson
Yamcha isn't a baseball player anymore, Toriyama retconned his job, he's a freelance bodyguard.
Aiden Bennett

Asher Price
>Dumb pedospic doesn't understand filler
Logan Turner
Pretty sure that retcon was before Super. And even then, Super retconned it back that he is a baseball player.
Toriyama still never said GT wasn't canon, I was just correcting that
Benjamin Gutierrez
How does Super contradict the original and Z? Use manga examples only, anime filler doesn't count.
Nathan Carter
>GT and Super are non-canon Best timeline.
James Wilson
And even then, I'm pretty sure the guy is still training even to this day (which is probably why he was so hyped for the ToP in the first place, to showcase his abilities after being rejected in the Golden Frieza arc). So, Yamcha is at the very least stronger than Frieza's true form in Namek, or MAYBE even Cell tier.
>still has an author that enjoys what he makes and cares for the world of One Piece
>has better art and animation
>has tastefully sexy fan service (Based)
>still has great and even better fight scenes
>has epic transformations that make sense
>doesn't insult the intelligence of the audience
>is a better successor to Dragon Ball than Super ever was
This is a fact. Literal universal truth. No one can come close to refuting this truth. There is no way you can convince me this is not a fact. This opinion could not possibly be anymore a fact. Disagreeing with me is like disagreeing that the world is round. Watch One Piece. There is absolutely zero reason not to at this point.
It's such a shame that you're spending your hard earned free time on Super instead of indulging in the highest form of art in all of anime.
>first character to ever use a technique with a name >second human to master the kamehameha (and much faster than the first one) >can create techniques on his own The true main character of DB, people don't even like the shitty Saibaman memes anymore, his time is near.

Brandon Anderson
I think it is important to take note of this article. Please glance over and pinpoint where it states "REMENBER Z", this can only convey to the steadfast, observant and emotionally invested reader, that in no time at all pondering it over, that DBGT is perhaps canon? Strengthened by the canon Pan from DBZ and the Pan from DBGT, this can only further reinforce the possibility of DBGT being the successor.
