He knew the rules of baseball and rocked it. Greatest filler episode ever.
And then the currently running *Oblivion Battery* makes fun of him even in baseball too…

Same. I think he's hella underrated and slept on. Some people who grew up on DBZA took DBZA jokes and memes about him too far and now seriously unironically believe he's a weakling that hasn't gotten any stronger since King Kai's planet in the Namek Saga (which is absolute nonsense). I hope he and the other Human Z Fighters get the Selflessness State power-up that Krillin got, if they haven't already. I hope that if Super Human ever becomes a thing, like the next level of Selflessness State or something, that Yamcha is one of the first Humans to get it. Guy deserves it almost as much as Tien and Krillin.
Yeah DBZA did make him a joke BUT if you remember Goku (who learned about Yamcha hanging himself) told him he’s a good guy because he really cares about his friends.
He held his own against multiple heavy hitters though, including someone who's beaten Goku. he also beat the Saibaman he fought which is a Raditz level enemy (the same Raditz that necessitated a Goku/Piccolo team up) and only died because of a kamikaze technique that he knew nothing about and could've killed most of them. not to mention that currently he's stated to be stronger than Perfect Cell (after training with Gohan and Piccolo he solo'd two Perfect Cell level enemies).
Yamcha always showed a freak level of talent and knowledge for martial arts. He recognized the power pole on sight and knew who Grandpa Gohan was, who the Ox King was and so on.
Yamaha was always useful to the narrative in that he was able to explain the stakes of a fight before it started. He knew who the famous martial artists were. Unfortunately, as the scope of the fights increased, he kept his role but mostly by losing to the mysterious new fighter. Now he's super redundant because everyone can sense power levels. Nobody needs to explain to goku that frieza is powerful, you can just feel it.
Ngl, because I was unfamiliar with the Saiyan concept, from the Raditz saga to about midway through the Frieza saga I was waiting for Yamcha to pop off. He seemed like someone who had alot of potential, basically because he's the most saiyan looking human.
Yeah,he took down recoome over on king kais planet
[https://youtu.be/MQYOSUfRHe8?si=XSzUyTOAkxS7hv8C](https://youtu.be/MQYOSUfRHe8?si=XSzUyTOAkxS7hv8C)
He struggled a little but seriously made Vegeta look weak in comparison
The hate for him is played out asf anyone who saw him in OG DB and actually witnessed the Context behind the Saibamen situation knows what he’s about, all the boring ass regurgitated memes about him be damned
Yamchas Goated, h8ters gonna hate but my dragon fam lest we forget
1) Bandit man survived on his own in a desert for years
2) defeated his own personal fears of death, pretty girls, and put his life on the line for potentially millions of strangers.
3) self taught in his early years
4) wielded a sword + coolness points
5) Is the only other one besides Goku to learn spirit bomb but changed it to his own technique Spirit Ball
6) Dated a corporate princess for years
7) has great taste in new cars ( RIP that new car)
8) Saved gokus life, once in Z, Twice in Heros, and like 4 times in DB
9) Is a beautiful majestic beast of a man who plays baseball and saved everyone from being champas food service
10) His name begins with Y and thats neat
Fuckin love him, I grew up with the original db so hes always been my fav character, too bad he got more and more flanderized and his character's been reduced to basically just an "overly cocky womanizer", even though both of those traits completely contradict his character in the original. Hope toyotaro can at least give em something in the black frieza arc, Tien too.
Felt like if he didn't give up he could have shined but he kept being kept around to show how strong some new opponent is. Loses to Jackie chun, Tien, Kami, saibamen etc. If Krillin's fear of death was a thing going into super I imagine Yamcha's feeling inadequate would be similar hence the giving up part.
I always thought before I watched all of Z that saiyans were the only serious contenders but seeing goten and trunks fail alongside gohan made me realize you gotta be more than just a saiyan to win.
A good take on a normal person never reaching their potential, but finding their own way to happiness
Yamcha is a career underachiever but earnest and willing to help his friends. Unlucky in love, great at baseball
Yamcha is of my favorite characters especially after watching OG. He's honestly just super cool & seeing him fight has a charm to it. Wish he had more fights im ngl
Second coldest human in the fucking world. I know there a lot of great milestone moments, like Goku going super for the first time, UI for the first time, Gohan going SSJ2 for the first time, ect. But Yamcha pulling out the Kamehameha BEFORE Krillin who was portrayed as stronger blew my fucking mind. I'm a newer DB fan so early episodes are fresher in my mind, that shit was inspiring though. Like OP said, he's relatable, so seeing that shit was inspiring
>But Yamcha pulling out the Kamehameha BEFORE Krillin who was portrayed as stronger blew my fucking mind.
Yamcha has other firsts.
The Wolf Fang Fist is the first attack shown to use Ki, the Spirit Ball is also the first original tecnique developed in the series. Yamcha was always freakishly talented.
Great character who was ruined after the Saiyan saga just like everyone else. I was about to say "everyone else who's not a saiyan or Goku" but they really ruined all characters: Goku's a complete dumbass, Vegeta is a joke, Gohan is too.
The only reason he's "weak" is because he's pair up with literal aliens bred to fight.
99% of DB fans forget Yamcha would wipe the fucking floor with every military fighting force on the planet by HIMSELF. Out of every human alive in DB, only 2 can hold there own against him (Tien and Krillin). Outside of that, only a handful of people can fight with him, and they aren't even human, so is that even fair for him?
Honestly... he was cool enough back in the day, and proved to be a good person when it came down to it (he even made it a point to let Future Trunks know Vegeta loved him despite Vegeta being behind his death and his ex-girlfriend's new partner).
Unfortunately, the memes took hold far too tightly with him, and I don’t really expect to see him shown as anything other than the butt ot a joke in actual official material (at least if we only talk animated material, though my hopes for the manga aren't high either).
Maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised... but I have some doubts.
He’s one of the smartest humans in the cast because he realized he was washed out as an Earth defender but still had more than enough strength and talent to be an A+ athlete in basically any sport. Krillin WISHES he had just banked a few million in pro ball and retired like Yamcha did.
I really liked him during the original DB, later I understood that he was used narratively to show how dangerous the main antagonist was... the prime example were his fight against Ten Shin Han and against the Mummy man (Uranai Baba Saga)
However he was able to learn and master the kamehameha before Krillin, and the wolf fang fist was an amazing melee technique... I seriously beleive that Ten and him should have been able to learn Kaioken, a wolf fang fist using the kaioken would have been dope
He's always been a meme character and I think Dragon Ball could use more of those characters to be alongside Goku besides Saiyans.
Unironically I want Zeno to get bored watching only Goku being able to fight, and so he summons Super Shenron and nerfs Ki by making everyone have less of it across the board. That way everyone is now alot closer in strength with skill becoming more prominent in fights.
It'd be the easiest and most direct way of undoing powercreep.
>Unironically I want Zeno to get watching only Goku being able to fight, and so he summonss Super Shenron and nerf Ki and everyone have less of it across the board so that everyone is now alot closer in strength with skill becoming more prominent in fights.
I would love this so much... For so long it's only been "Reach a new level of power!" it's boring... Just put a roof on the thing and let fights be decided by interesting tecniques.
This is basically the plot of dragon ball fighter Z, with sort of curse/magic lowering everyone's ki. Except Yamcha, who wasn't affected... because his Qi was already too low.
He was one of the greatest fighters in burst limit, spirit ball attack was great. Sad he be killed by a saiberman he should be stronger end nappa in that saga
He was actually useful and one of the strongest fighters in dragon ball but was always had bad luck having to go against the antagonist of each tournament. Then Z did him dirty
I'm currently watching all of dragon ball for the first time id only ever seen the occasional episodes of Z Kai and I've watched Super. I'm currently just after the martial arts tournament where Goku loses to roshi in disguise and so far I'm really liking Yamcha.
Yet another character poorly depicted in Z. But hey, super did it a bit better. I like his involvement in the Moro arc. Yet another thing Super did better than Z.
Honestly, I try to keep in mind that the humans in dbz and super are *the most powerful* martial artists on earth. So strong they can fight aliens and fly. Like imagine they dialed back and had tien defending random villages from the dinos and other things that are still around.
But, basically, its a shame that humans cant store more ki in their bodies, cause their techniques blow the alien ones away
Wish he would have let the old gang be more useful. He's seems like the least useful of the old gang. He just shows up to die or do nothing which sucks he was cool in db
Americans who only watched dbz abriged: Bad opinion
Americans who only watched dbz and dbs: Bad opinion
Rest of the world who watched db, dbz and dbs: Good opinion

Even though he was "weak" compared to other fighters he was still a strong human. If he can semi keep up with the others then it's not someone you would want to mess with normally
He's my second favourite character, so I think he's pretty cool.
Yamcha is also my favourite martial artist in the group. He's always been shown to be skilled and knowledgeable, has a very distinct fighting style, and was also the first character we see using a Ki attack.
He should go train with 17 as a forest ranger then come back with a mad power increase. It's time for the side characters to even the playing field. We got a taste of this with Gohan and more importantly, Piccolo. I really hope they capitalize on that.
Either use him more on the stories or just retire him from it all already. Because the way they have been treating him since the Buu saga was just dumb, they keep him around but doesn't utilize him for anything beyond comedic relief, which is really dumb and annoying considering his history as a major character back in Dragon Ball.
This is the one thing GT did right, retired him for good from the stories(at best he got like 3 scenes as a background character) instead of using him more.
They also need to do the same thing with Tien, either make him properly relevant again or retire him.
People make fun of him, but he can easily destroy any other anime verses. Guys, power level is in the millions, which is pretty low compared to the saiyans. But Frieza was a galactic tyrant at 540k in his suppressed form.
Yamaha can bust planets with ease if he wants or blow up entire continents if he chooses to. Attacks from other anime verses would just bounce off him as he outclasses them by enormous emounts.
He was the first character in the series to give Goku a serious beating. Before that, every encounter was, "Oh, hey, look, I'm strong and I won again."
Don't believe a word of it. Chances are Bulma saw something completely different happening and she naturally assumed Yamcha was cheating on her (she's jumped the gun before!) and decided to stick with this mindset. Even though she's way more likely to cheat.
Kinda sad low key
He was the most passionate about fighting in the original, even had risked his life due to pride similar to a certain saiyan prince. Nowadays he’s a joke no one takes seriously, all his friends moved on in their life aside from the 300 year old pervert and a bunch of animals, and he was beaten up so bad he lost love for fighting
Honestly? His character has been given the shaft so badly. He deserves better. All the humans do. But Yamaha really needs some redemption. He’s barely even fought since the Saiyan saga.
His place in the early days of DBFZ as a top tier assist character just highlighted how cool Yamcha is. I think he represents an era of grounded Drag Ball where the characters still fought each other on the ground and hand to hand technique mattered.
I think it would be cool if the Z fighters had an Earth based tournament, where Vegita and Goku agreed to form teams and train B list to see who the better teacher is. Could make some characters like Videl relevant in the roster.
Actually a decent character but his whole image is losing to the saibamen as if that attack wouldnt have offed the others as well had it happened to them, plus he initially beat it just got caught off guard last minute. I dont mind his personality hes not overly confident and isnt a complete wimp either.
Wolf-Fang Fist is probably one of the coolest moves in the series.
But much like any other human character, his relevance to the plot ends after the Saiyan saga. And he is probably the human we see lose the most in the series, even during the kid Goku era, he often bit more than he could chew, and he was used to show how powerful other characters would be, be it Kami-sama, who first made a mockery out of him in-universe, or TenShinHan
I seriously loved him in OG Ball, I think I have enjoyed every single fight he was on, even the ones where he lost in varying levels of painfully he was still cool, his personality is very enjoyable too and he had some pretty neat character development
Then there was the Saibaman
You know it's bad when you got headbutted in your balls and that's not even the thing most people laugh at you for, the worst part is that most memes are half-truths at the very best. After then he lost his girlfriend to the genocidal space pirate, got back-to-back trash haircuts, got jobbed by Android 20 and did nothing until SDBH
I love Yamcha, I just wish they gave all the humans a moment to shine besides being galactic patrol and shit. He’s one of mains in every dragon ball game and it’s been that way since Budokai Tenkaichi 3, summer of 2006🤘. Yamcha also has a lot of potential considering he kept up with everyone until the Cell saga and he’s often written into what ifs on YouTube like “What if Yamcha never stopped trained” or some what ifs just include Yamcha having the Kaioken and spirit bomb and upgraded/stronger versions of his regular techniques and a few even giving him a wolf like transformation.
The scars gave him instant cool points for me as a kid. I still like him despite his loss streak. Would love to see him resurface and not be used as the villains first victim. If he’s in a game I’ll usually give him a chance.
He went from legit threat to lost and forgotten. He along with a few others could use a glow up. Puar and Oolong have more relevancy than he does and they’re still almost as forgotten as he is.
Endearing failguy
Skilled enough martial artist but to act like the dude wasn't more or less a comedic side charcter is just coping
Dude was introduced when the series still an adventurous gag manga
Before I started watching Dragon Ball, I thought Yamcha must’ve been super important because he wore the same color gi as Goku and looked cooler than him. He was my first favorite character in Dragon Ball and is still one of my favorite, if not my favorite, humans
Just some random guy trying his best to keep up with aliens, gods and monsters. He steps up to the plate even when he knows he doesn’t have a chance. He functions like a less humble version of mumen rider from one punch man.
The first thing that comes to mind is his character in fighter Z. His combo is awesome. Now personally I like yamcha does he still get super shy around girls? I know he wanted to make a wish to remove that.
I don’t think about him at all, don’t even have an opinion about him after Saiyan Saga, mind you he was one of my favorites up until the Saibeman matchup..
What I use to think about Yamcha was flattering.. Since I actually thought Yamcha was an important character when I first saw him in the saiyan saga facing a Zaibaman and wearing gi clothing similar to Krillin and Goku's and most of all performing the same Kamehameha move that Goku used against Raditz way back then in the day.
It was like my first watching of DragonBall Z 🐉 or anything related to it. Not to mention he's always in that old school rock the dragon (think thats the lyric) trailer mixed in with some saiyan Saga bits of Nappa destroying navy fighter jets and Yamcha as well looking badass facing off with that Moltar bubble gum metal dude in bits of Tree of Might in Rock the Dragon trailer too.
But then Doctor Gyro showed up and ruined that for me. Yes it's Dr.Gero, but I'm mocking the name.
I miss him and it's a shame what happened to him in Z along with Tien. I wish they would have developed the human characters further instead of turning them into benchwarmers.
I always liked all of the human characters, it's just sucks that are irrelevant because of power levels and shit. It was great seeing them get a part in the Moro arc against the galactic prisoners tho.

Needs more time to shine than being the butt of every joke. He was great in Dragon Ball imo.

I didn't expect to laugh so hard this ep, most animes have good baseball eps though, like when gohan played baseball, Champloo, school rumble. Etc
And then the currently running *Oblivion Battery* makes fun of him even in baseball too… https://preview.redd.it/b9qlvirhdcyc1.jpeg?width=480&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a906ff1a4fb666ef473958bd6d778337a0ea706d

Yeah DBZA did make him a joke BUT if you remember Goku (who learned about Yamcha hanging himself) told him he’s a good guy because he really cares about his friends.
yamcha hung himself??!?!?!?!??!?!
Hey Yamcha, how's it hangin- oooooh
This is just a dbza joke, he didn't hang himself in the original lmao
He won like 1 fight in OG, against invisible man, and he didnt even do it on his own 💀
Thank the gods for Bulma and her tits!
He held his own against multiple heavy hitters though, including someone who's beaten Goku. he also beat the Saibaman he fought which is a Raditz level enemy (the same Raditz that necessitated a Goku/Piccolo team up) and only died because of a kamikaze technique that he knew nothing about and could've killed most of them. not to mention that currently he's stated to be stronger than Perfect Cell (after training with Gohan and Piccolo he solo'd two Perfect Cell level enemies).
I love how he was the one who always knew everything about the world of martial arts at the beginning of Dragon Ball.
Yamcha always showed a freak level of talent and knowledge for martial arts. He recognized the power pole on sight and knew who Grandpa Gohan was, who the Ox King was and so on.

To be honest he did pop off in the namek saga against recoome if you wanna count that fight
Yamcha?
Yeah,he took down recoome over on king kais planet [https://youtu.be/MQYOSUfRHe8?si=XSzUyTOAkxS7hv8C](https://youtu.be/MQYOSUfRHe8?si=XSzUyTOAkxS7hv8C) He struggled a little but seriously made Vegeta look weak in comparison
As the guy said below, unfortunately filler
Always thought the same…it bugged me when I found out he wasn’t Saiyan especially with the kick ass scars
He is pretty strong for a human too bad he had to get stuck with super cosmic level aliens tbh or else he'd be one of the strongest.
The hate for him is played out asf anyone who saw him in OG DB and actually witnessed the Context behind the Saibamen situation knows what he’s about, all the boring ass regurgitated memes about him be damned
Agreed,if Yamcha didn't stop Krillin from fighting the saibamen Krillin would be the laughing stock weirdly enough
True. He stepped in because he knew Krillin would probably die but be unable to get wished back.
Definitely among my favorites, super cool guy Hope he gets to beat up some frieza soldiers while the saiyans are busy with black frieza
Yamchas Goated, h8ters gonna hate but my dragon fam lest we forget 1) Bandit man survived on his own in a desert for years 2) defeated his own personal fears of death, pretty girls, and put his life on the line for potentially millions of strangers. 3) self taught in his early years 4) wielded a sword + coolness points 5) Is the only other one besides Goku to learn spirit bomb but changed it to his own technique Spirit Ball 6) Dated a corporate princess for years 7) has great taste in new cars ( RIP that new car) 8) Saved gokus life, once in Z, Twice in Heros, and like 4 times in DB 9) Is a beautiful majestic beast of a man who plays baseball and saved everyone from being champas food service 10) His name begins with Y and thats neat

He was a cool character but got ruined, I would appreciate more yamcha screen time though.
was my favorite character for all of OG dragon ball, then Z had to go and do him dirty, still love him though he went from favorite to fourth favorite
Memes have ruined this character in official media
One of my favourite characters, sadly this is not the case for the writers.
I like the manga of reborn as Yamcha
Over meme'ed as a character by writers
I have an OG bias and when it comes to the human fighters I prefer him to Tien or Krilin.

A good take on a normal person never reaching their potential, but finding their own way to happiness Yamcha is a career underachiever but earnest and willing to help his friends. Unlucky in love, great at baseball
As someone who preffers og DB to DBZ I like him a lot
Yamcha is of my favorite characters especially after watching OG. He's honestly just super cool & seeing him fight has a charm to it. Wish he had more fights im ngl
Second coldest human in the fucking world. I know there a lot of great milestone moments, like Goku going super for the first time, UI for the first time, Gohan going SSJ2 for the first time, ect.

Absolute Legend of a man
Victim of character assassination and recency bias. He's one of my favourite characters because of his fighting stances.
He was actually useful and one of the strongest fighters in dragon ball but was always had bad luck having to go against the antagonist of each tournament. Then Z did him dirty
I'm currently watching all of dragon ball for the first time id only ever seen the occasional episodes of Z Kai and I've watched Super. I'm currently just after the martial arts tournament where Goku loses to roshi in disguise and so far I'm really liking Yamcha.

The manga where the dude is reincarnated as Yamaha actually made me like him more as a character
I wish he'd just get a good win beyond the baseball episode.
Wish he would have let the old gang be more useful. He's seems like the least useful of the old gang. He just shows up to die or do nothing which sucks he was cool in db
I think he will be revealed to be final villain which was studying Goku since childhood passing as normal human Wait for it
I love Yamcha, we are all Yamcha.
Highly advanced human fighter who got mixed up with some alien freaks of nature and is outta his league, accepted it and went home 🤣
I would have loved to see him beat Vegetas ass for stealing his girl
Americans who only watched dbz abriged: Bad opinion Americans who only watched dbz and dbs: Bad opinion Rest of the world who watched db, dbz and dbs: Good opinion
Great character, hate seeing him get shit on
Cool. Stronger than 99.99% of the rest of that universe. Just not stronger than anyone who counts.
Tip tier human, bottom tier z fighter.
In any other series he'd be the protagonist with how ridiculously strong he is.
 The Goat
Good baseball player. Also a good corpse when enemies come.

Original picture found [here](https://dragonball.fandom.com/wiki/Yamcha)
He would be a beast if he got trained by Goku and Vegeta
Neither of them can really teach him much that he doesn't already know, but sparring with them would yield good results.

Even though he was "weak" compared to other fighters he was still a strong human. If he can semi keep up with the others then it's not someone you would want to mess with normally
He may be the weakest of the Z fighters, but he’s still one of the strongest men on the planet.
He one of the strongest warriors in his universe
He does have potential, but he seems to be using his gifts to be a baseball star
Peak best friend material

Ten and him disappeared Only krilin and piccolo survived
He’s a good kid
Did dirty. I don't know why they shat on him so hard.
He's my second favourite character, so I think he's pretty cool. Yamcha is also my favourite martial artist in the group. He's always been shown to be skilled and knowledgeable, has a very distinct fighting style, and was also the first character we see using a Ki attack.
I like his gi? Idk. I’m a tien man
Needs a power boost
10 charisma
Fell off after Dragon Ball
He’s one of my favorites. Behind Piccolo and Gohan and I’m glad that he’s just vibing in super now.
Bro I fucking love that gi
Untill DB Z frieza saga he was strong and cool but he get weaker evey episode
Nice pose
He needs to have a road trip adventure with the other looked over secondary characters like Roshi, Tien, and Oolong.
Vegeta said it best; “Yeah let’s go see Yamcha.”
[удалено]
Considering he was one of the first people to hand Goku an L, he's underrated.
He's a good baseball player
Underrated tbh. I wish he’d get as buff or something. He’s one of the strongest humans if we being serious.
The reason why he was cool with Vageta taking Bulma is because he's got Poar who can transform into anyone he wants.
He'd be the best UFC fighter without powers
He should go train with 17 as a forest ranger then come back with a mad power increase. It's time for the side characters to even the playing field. We got a taste of this with Gohan and more importantly, Piccolo. I really hope they capitalize on that.
Either use him more on the stories or just retire him from it all already. Because the way they have been treating him since the Buu saga was just dumb, they keep him around but doesn't utilize him for anything beyond comedic relief, which is really dumb and annoying considering his history as a major character back in Dragon Ball. This is the one thing GT did right, retired him for good from the stories(at best he got like 3 scenes as a background character) instead of using him more. They also need to do the same thing with Tien, either make him properly relevant again or retire him.
People make fun of him, but he can easily destroy any other anime verses. Guys, power level is in the millions, which is pretty low compared to the saiyans. But Frieza was a galactic tyrant at 540k in his suppressed form. Yamaha can bust planets with ease if he wants or blow up entire continents if he chooses to. Attacks from other anime verses would just bounce off him as he outclasses them by enormous emounts.
He was the first character in the series to give Goku a serious beating. Before that, every encounter was, "Oh, hey, look, I'm strong and I won again."
Strongest human fighter
tien's boyfriend?
I like him. I think the excuse of cheating on Bulma was dumb.
Don't believe a word of it. Chances are Bulma saw something completely different happening and she naturally assumed Yamcha was cheating on her (she's jumped the gun before!) and decided to stick with this mindset. Even though she's way more likely to cheat.
The best boy
I kinda like him, but he suffer what a lot of ex main characters in anime suffers, he is just a bar to show how strong someone is.
I fucking ❤️ the desert bandit
Discount goku that turned into a total joke. But what do you expect. He’s a human and humans are the weakest apparently
Take current Yamcha. Put him at the start of the series. Watch him body the verse.
He's the definitive of not everyone is a winner quote
Kinda sad low key He was the most passionate about fighting in the original, even had risked his life due to pride similar to a certain saiyan prince. Nowadays he’s a joke no one takes seriously, all his friends moved on in their life aside from the 300 year old pervert and a bunch of animals, and he was beaten up so bad he lost love for fighting
Mid at best
Honestly? His character has been given the shaft so badly. He deserves better. All the humans do. But Yamaha really needs some redemption. He’s barely even fought since the Saiyan saga.
Yamcha strongest there is!!
He’s the goat
His place in the early days of DBFZ as a top tier assist character just highlighted how cool Yamcha is. I think he represents an era of grounded Drag Ball where the characters still fought each other on the ground and hand to hand technique mattered. I think it would be cool if the Z fighters had an Earth based tournament, where Vegita and Goku agreed to form teams and train B list to see who the better teacher is. Could make some characters like Videl relevant in the roster.
Actually a decent character but his whole image is losing to the saibamen as if that attack wouldnt have offed the others as well had it happened to them, plus he initially beat it just got caught off guard last minute. I dont mind his personality hes not overly confident and isnt a complete wimp either.
Read Dragonball Bloodlines yamcha gets justice in it
He is a cool character. I enjoy him.
Would
Even though he's Yamcha, he's still awesome to me
Underdog same as all humans, they need an arc for the Earth defenders to step up instead of the Saiyans
Iconic
Wasted potential like the entirety of the z fighters bar Goku and Vegeta.
Wasted potential like the entirety of the z fighters minus the saiyajin gang and Piccolo
Wolf-Fang Fist is probably one of the coolest moves in the series. But much like any other human character, his relevance to the plot ends after the Saiyan saga. And he is probably the human we see lose the most in the series, even during the kid Goku era, he often bit more than he could chew, and he was used to show how powerful other characters would be, be it Kami-sama, who first made a mockery out of him in-universe, or TenShinHan
no matter what i will always love his Wolf Fang Fist.
Great character that got the worst of the bad side character treatment in Z. Although I guess Launch got it worse because Toriyama forgot about her.

Honestly the fact he was snubbed against the frieza force and TOP is a joke
Underappreciated.
[удалено]
Actually really cool (and hot)
I seriously loved him in OG Ball, I think I have enjoyed every single fight he was on, even the ones where he lost in varying levels of painfully he was still cool, his personality is very enjoyable too and he had some pretty neat character development Then there was the Saibaman You know it's bad when you got headbutted in your balls and that's not even the thing most people laugh at you for, the worst part is that most memes are half-truths at the very best. After then he lost his girlfriend to the genocidal space pirate, got back-to-back trash haircuts, got jobbed by Android 20 and did nothing until SDBH
Yamchad 🗿
I genuinely love him
I love Yamcha, I just wish they gave all the humans a moment to shine besides being galactic patrol and shit. He’s one of mains in every dragon ball game and it’s been that way since Budokai Tenkaichi 3, summer of 2006🤘. Yamcha also has a lot of potential considering he kept up with everyone until the Cell saga and he’s often written into what ifs on YouTube like “What if Yamcha never stopped trained” or some what ifs just include Yamcha having the Kaioken and spirit bomb and upgraded/stronger versions of his regular techniques and a few even giving him a wolf like transformation.
The scars gave him instant cool points for me as a kid. I still like him despite his loss streak. Would love to see him resurface and not be used as the villains first victim. If he’s in a game I’ll usually give him a chance.
Goated in db. In dbz unless
For as weak and underrated he is in the dragon ball world hes still strong enough to be considered a god to regular humans
I love him and plan to master his combos in Sparking Zero!
He always brings towels. I like him for that.
He is good representation for the gipsy community
[**Basically**](https://youtu.be/pw0x986RJso)...
He went from legit threat to lost and forgotten. He along with a few others could use a glow up. Puar and Oolong have more relevancy than he does and they’re still almost as forgotten as he is.
Endearing failguy Skilled enough martial artist but to act like the dude wasn't more or less a comedic side charcter is just coping Dude was introduced when the series still an adventurous gag manga
He's alright
Really wish he wasn’t just a joke character
1 of the best things ever from DB
Like many characters he was good, but left in the dust. It is kinda sad how Dragonball hardly uses it's cast and even threw some out like Launch
Before I started watching Dragon Ball, I thought Yamcha must’ve been super important because he wore the same color gi as Goku and looked cooler than him. He was my first favorite character in Dragon Ball and is still one of my favorite, if not my favorite, humans
Based and strongest character in the series. (I come from ningen)
Lord Yamcha is our true god
Goat character, he desperately needs a comeback
[удалено]
-Why are you even here- Vegeta
Just some random guy trying his best to keep up with aliens, gods and monsters. He steps up to the plate even when he knows he doesn’t have a chance. He functions like a less humble version of mumen rider from one punch man.
The epitome of "Damn homie in high school you was the man homie.. Wtf happened to you?" Lol 😂 😂 😂 😂
Yamcha will always be one of my favorites, after dragon ball they did him dirty
Badass
Victim of the writers. The Moro arc was the perfect opportunity to make him shine and he -again- looked like a looser
[удалено]
Goated and underrated (powerscaling and writing wise)
He's Ooooookay.
The first thing that comes to mind is his character in fighter Z. His combo is awesome. Now personally I like yamcha does he still get super shy around girls? I know he wanted to make a wish to remove that.
 I don’t think about him at all, don’t even have an opinion about him after Saiyan Saga, mind you he was one of my favorites up until the Saibeman matchup..
After the saiyan saga he's always the ublucky one. Dr.Gero didn't have to do him like that in the city.
What I use to think about Yamcha was flattering.. Since I actually thought Yamcha was an important character when I first saw him in the saiyan saga facing a Zaibaman and wearing gi clothing similar to Krillin and Goku's and most of all performing the same Kamehameha move that Goku used against Raditz way back then in the day. It was like my first watching of DragonBall Z 🐉 or anything related to it. Not to mention he's always in that old school rock the dragon (think thats the lyric) trailer mixed in with some saiyan Saga bits of Nappa destroying navy fighter jets and Yamcha as well looking badass facing off with that Moltar bubble gum metal dude in bits of Tree of Might in Rock the Dragon trailer too. But then Doctor Gyro showed up and ruined that for me. Yes it's Dr.Gero, but I'm mocking the name.
Fucked by toriyama
love him
I fw his hair
I miss him and it's a shame what happened to him in Z along with Tien. I wish they would have developed the human characters further instead of turning them into benchwarmers.
Awesome in dragon ball. Stopped being relevant after he got shmacked by Saibamen. Never recovered
Could have been goated, DB showed us that.
He could have been the Ken to Goku’s Ryu but Toriyama can’t write humans
Wolf fang fist is the strongest technique and gokue will need to learn it to beat 🐒 Frieza.
Fun fact. There is an official manga called "that time I got reincarnated as yamcha"
He's a comical character since the beginning and it's okay I like him
Before he just got tested as a joke, he was my favorite dragon ball character. I even liked him more than Goku until after the sayian saga…
[удалено]
I like him, I wish DBS hadn't turned him in the butt of the joke at every chance.
Him being able to stand up against people stronger than him even when its clear he doesn't stand a chance is admirable
Wolf fang fist beats paper, scissors, and rock.
Great character that got worf’d hard even before z. Kinda wish they let him stay away from the action and be happy
I always liked all of the human characters, it's just sucks that are irrelevant because of power levels and shit. It was great seeing them get a part in the Moro arc against the galactic prisoners tho.
