Way too many characters get sidelined too frequently in manga/anime... Dragon Ball (especially Z) in particular does it too much.

I also hate what they did with Eighteen. She deserves better than Krillin. >.<

I dislike Kuririn's character. He's the stupidest one of the bunch, lately.

Well, I might as well put this out in the open.

18 is my favorite overall character. Trunks being a close second.

Piccolo is my favortie Z warrior.

Vegeta and Buu are tied as my favorite villians.

I have never gotten around to watching the original Dragon Ball.

My favorite fight was Gohan V. Cell.

I've always thought Krillin was an awesome and valuable member of the team. Every group needs a funny punching bag.

Dragon Ball most of the time was about Son Goku and who ever was with him at the time. And sometimes it was about Gohan, cuz he was going to be the next main character but Toriyama ended up thinking that was a mistake. So some characters getting sidelined I am fine with. It's not like Muten Roshi could do much after we got to Piccolo super level fighting. I just don't get how he could forget Lunch? Hell one time in a interview he even forgot all about Tao Pai Pai too.

Kuririn was a great character, it was a good idea for Son-kun to get a best friend. And he and 18 were cute together.

@The Mad Hanar Yamucha was the punching bag.

Krillin is a beast. I personally think Piccolo got the worst sidelining tbh. After the androids got absorbed by Cell he became useless, even though he was just made one of the most powerful characters at that time with his Kami fusion.

But Vegeta will always be the best DB character imho.

Piccolo still did stuff in the Boo arc, so he was not really useless. He just was not as strong as Goku, Vegeta and Gohan.

True, but I mean in terms of being a Z fighter. He helped with the fusion and all that, but he was way outclassed by the enemies to the point where he was really just as useless in a fight as say Tien or Krillin.

Well Boo was the end boss. Only Gohan was stronger than him.

Nope Goku was weaker than, like all the forms of Boo. I think he was even with Fat Boo.

Databooks and all that.

While it is true that Yamcha was the main punching bag, Krillin was the likeable and funny punching bag. He might not have sucked as much as Yamcha, but that's pretty hard to do

Confound those databooks. I wish the things they said in the anime actually mached the facts. But I stand corrected.

@GL Well nothing in the series ever said Goku was stronger than Boo. Boo beating Goku up should tell you how well they compare.

Best thing about Yamucha was his theme song.

But because he is so lame he had to sing it himself.

@SG: Well i was basing it off when Goku said he could have probably beat Kid Buu (On the Kai planet) but wanted to give Vegeta a chance. I know that was one of the stupidest moments in the whole series in terms of writing but I figured he was being honest XD

I think that is a dub only line. Been some time since I read/watched the series.

I don't care for at all. And I like FUNimation dubs. It was a crap job(Sabat said the same) and they still have never fixed it. Kai's dub was okayish tho.

FUNimation was always the dub Toonami had. For the first "67" episodes they had Ocean Productions' voice actors but after that they got a new cast.
