I used to make fun of Yamcha and I'm not proud about it at all. Now he's one of my all time favorite characters. Looking past all the irrelevant and corny memes that overstayed their welcome, understanding Yamcha's character for what it is really makes you emphasize with him as he's easily the most relatable and human character in dbz(right next to Krillin). We all see some of ourselves in Yamcha and he has all the aspirations most would want in terms of wanting settling down, having a family, finding a career job you're passionate about, all while being a high class skilled martial artist and even though life can mess you up, mistreat you, and get in the way of your goals, you still have the heart to keep trying in the face of otherwise difficult circumstances. Despite all that Yamcha has been through from the writers, fans, and in universe characters he still smiles and tries to keep going even if he's been at his limits. I truly believe Yamcha will overcome in the end and I'll be fan always and forever until the day I die
I couldn't have put it any better myself. Characters like Yamcha, Krillin, Piccolo, Bulma and Tien are badly underappreciated and disrespected, and when you really take the time to look into their character arcs, you grow a new respect for them. Its not about how powerful they are. But rather they are characters that have...well...real character. In researching guys like Yamcha, I too also have gained a new admiration for them. Precisely for the reasons you discussed.
Its because of fans/people like you that I make these kinds of videos. and...reading your comment put a smile on my face . Thank you very much for taking the time out of your day to share your thoughts and show your support. It...means the world to me🥲
Yamcha would have been a great character had Akira not decided to use him as a comedy punching bag...
Very well said! The man has decent character development and really had the potential to be amazing
He needs way more love than he gets.
And Tenshinhan.
"B-b-but Saibaman!" Piss off, Yamcha would've given Raditz a run for his money.
Hahaha. Exactly, Ink Chariot. Egg-zact-leeee😬
He would've BEATEN Raditz. Easily. Remember, the only reason he died to the Saibaman is because he let his guard down after kicking its ass and it blew itself up, but before that he effortlessly steamrolled it. And it was stated that all of the Saibamen were at the same power level as Raditz.
I'm pretty much sure that Picollo is the only one at that time who would survive Saibaman self destruct
Yamcha would have diced Raditz and served him for lunch. Saiba mam won because self distruct . Raditz is a coward and he would never do that. Yamcha is not a goodid goodie like Goku and knows Raditz weakness.
Jokes aside, he actually BEAT the saibaman. It snuck up on him after and self-destructed.
At this point, killing him is unacceptable. He deserves a happy ending.If Krillin can get a happily ever after getting married and having a child, being JUST as weak as Yamcha when compared do any of the aliens? He deserves at LEAST that much as well. And if they don't give that to him before the end of the series, then they suck. Period
Very well said. Yamcha deserves an official redemption arc at the very least! Thank you for sharing your thoughts and support✌🙂
Yamcha and Tien need a boost in power! They are already skilled fighters. Yamcha would make a great villain! Forget Super Saiyan powers, he knows ALL of their moves!!!!!
I couldn't have said it any better myself! Yamcha and Tien are very underrated characters IMO
Waiting for the next movie "DragonBall Super: Human" starring tien, yamcha, krillin, and bulma
Gotea, For sure we need a power up me and my buddy Tien
I've always said that it would've been a far more compelling storyline if Zamasu had taken over Yamcha's body & became Yamcha black, rather than Goku black.
The writers could've made him a credible threat by having Zamasu taking over his body unlock Yamcha's pure potential, showing that he actually has incredible hidden power. I mean, they did it w/ Krillin in the anime.
@@equanimity92 hello! Did you see the new trailer for Tekken 8?
I don't know if Yamcha deserves to die, or rather should die for character brownie points.
Personally apart of me is content that Yamcha has survived, and died through what are effectively countless
world ending and invasions, even war worthy conflicts. He deserves to be able to rest, and move on he has seen
a life time of battle, he deserves to live the rest of his final life in happiness chasing his dreams he's earned it.
Very well put! EIther way, I feel like Yamcha deserve to have some respect put on his name. The jokes and memes have gone on for long enough.
@@equanimity92
They were a problem since day 1 they began
While Evil Yamcha sounds rather fanficy and the plan you suggested sounds like the craziest side story ever imagined for a Xenoverse game, I do agree with most of what you said about him and how he deserves so much more recognition. He’s the king of underrated anime characters.
I appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts and support! and I couldn't agree with you more about Yamcha deserving more recognition. Its the reason why I made this video😁
You're welcome. Always here to support fellow content creators.
All it takes is for one bad day
For instance the amount of people shitting on Yamcha for always getting eliminated in the quarter finals when most times even Goku couldn't defeat that same opponent in the final, just shows how many people hasn't even watch OG Dragon Ball.
Well Said. Yamcha is very unfairly criticized indeed. and the Original Dragon Ball is just (*Chef's Kiss) perfect.
Awesome intro/video dude, Yamcha has always had my respect since he's always there to help whenever he can even though he's heavily outclassed. Also that mentioning of Sorbet shooting Goku got a laugh out of me.
This video made my day so here's a sub :)
I'm happy you enjoyed it! and Tysm for sharing your thoughts and support! It means the world to me 😭

You have a great understanding of characterization and motivation. But I think Yamcha can become a physical threat if the Red Ribbon Army turns him into an Android. When he steals the blueprints for the time machine, he can also steal all the blueprints to Androids 17, 18, and 16.
I appreciate you taking time to share your thoughts. You're not wrong! Thats actually an amazing idea. I just feel like simply saying he could become an android or make a wish using the dragon balls to just be stronger than everyone is a bit of a cop out and really can be applied to anyone. (it would make for a very short video)
Also, I already used the android conversion option in my Video I made on Krillin. 😅
For my True Potential videos, I try to make each one unique by mainly focusing on each underappreciated character's individual strengths/abilities and personality traits while sticking to the lore as much as possible.
I really wanted to craft a path for Yamcha to be threatening using mostly his own cunning he displayed as a Bandit and relying on his mental breakdown he could have logically had by now by being mocked for so many years. This kind of approach would also differentiate him significantly from just being a Goku Black knockoff. and it makes for a really interesting and thought provoking video too😋
I'd have to say that if base androids were simple humans and ended up so powerful, then if gero had taken him immediately after draining him and built him with same power capabilities as a combined androids and the cells of Frieza with piccolo he would have handed out some major butt whoopings
Now there's an interesting idea 🤔you might be onto something there!👍

Power level= 1,480
Why couldn't akira give an Original Dragon Ball character some respect. Like cmon, I know he was jobber back then but at least they made him relevant, relatable, and gave him something to do. Yamcha did not deserve to be treated the way he was in Z If you're no longer going to use him then, at least let him fade away with diginity or a victory.
My Sentiments exactly. Very well said!
Yamcha amd Tenshinhan have alwa been my favorite characters n this franchise despite being picked on for having such love for these two.
Yeah actually that yamcha villain story you described sounds interesting and different from whats usually in dragon ball, he wouldn't be the strongest villain but it still works
I appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts and support! And yes, thats exactly the point. He wouldn't be the most powerful, not by a longshot. but definitely has the potential to be one of the most compelling villains we have ever seen in the series, because the motivations for him to turn heel are all right there!
I mean he is not weak he is still stronger than mr satan and can fly and has incredible strength. He is just not strong as the z fighters but amongst human he is a chad that he can easily have a spinoff to save normal humans life.
Very good points! Drop this man in most other Anime's and he could easy be final boss tier! Really like your idea of him having a spinoff too!
"Not as strong as the z fighters". Dude he IS a z fighter, and he's not the weakest
I'd watch a 30 For 30 on Yamcha, the baseball GOAT.
If it werent for Yamcha Bulma would have died a few times by now such as being turn into a carrot by monster carrot, by oozaru goku, by a truck. No one understands that the majority of yamcha loses were because he always ended up fighting those waaaay stronger then him, not by a small margin but a lot. The fact he was able to survive on 300G withouth turning into a puddle shows his amazing durability
Couldn't agree with you more. Very well said. Which is why I said that 'people can call him many names, but one thing nobody can call him is a coward'. I really appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts and support!🤓
I mean i still remember that time he fought tambourine for a moment even when his leg was still hurting after his fight with Tien, he is no coward and it hurts when they make him act like that in other games@@equanimity92
Damn, quite an intro, man! I'm looking forward to watching this to the end!
EDIT: Now that I watched it, i want to say you did a truly fantastic job on this video, man! This really was a huge passion project for you, telling from the effort you put into it. And I really like the idea of Yamcha being a such a life changing villain for the Z-Fighters!
Tysm Lanif! words cannot describe how much I appreciate you sharing your thoughts and support. I'm just happy I could create something that gets the fans inspired and talking.
❤
Excellent outlook of an evil yamcha, it needs to be done.
Appreciate the kind words and support!🤠👍 glad you enjoyed it
Good to see more videos from you, and a great one too. I don’t feel that giving Yamcha an honourable death would work at this point, having some harsh humiliation only to die seems unfair. Otherwise, the villain idea is real cool, prove ‘em all wrong! I only have trouble seeing Yamcha kill friends and family to reach that goal unless he could revive them, making it more of a feat than spite.
Great video, the ideas have me thinking, which is fun.
I'm glad you enjoyed it! I really appreciate your patience with me and being kind enough to share your thoughts as well.
Yamacha deserve a villian arc
couldn't agree more😤 would catch everyone off guard 😳and would probably be one of the darkest arcs we've ever seen in Dragon Ball💀 btw Appreciate the support!😁
@@equanimity92 Agreed
I noticed how you included a clip from Thefightersden in the beginning lol.
I haven’t seen a vid like this in a while it’s so organized and the memes and shit are actually funny first time I’ve subscribed off a vid in a while also yamchas one of my favorite characters he deserves this respect
Really appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts and support! It means everything to me🥲
If you played any Dbz game since ps2 ypu would know the game devs secretly love Yamcha. Mad respect for him in the game.
Couldn't agree more! Yamcha has almost always been decent to use in the DBZ games.(for a long time he was top tier in FighterZ) So Its no coincidence that alot of the footage I used was from the games!😉
This is such a great video. I like your imaginative scenarios.
Tysm for being so kind as to share your thoughts and support! That...that means the world to me🥲
think you can make a full story on Yamcha Black?
I shared some of my ideas in this video😁👍
Dragon Ball Super would definitely be more interesting if Yamcha was a villain in Trunk's timeline, and Trunks in the mane timeline tries to tell Yamcha the truth about his strength and how he sacrificed himself to save Krillin.
Now there is an interesting take on this idea! There is literally so many ways they could go with this concept. I appreciate you taking the time to share your ideas too!
Yamcha Got In His Bag Again During The Moro Arc 💯
another reason why they better get to releasing that second season of DBS Anime real soon.
I don't see the show ever going this route, it's too dark and not kid friendly, and that's who they are marketing to. But the premise of this is fantastic.
I suppose you are right. Maybe I did go a little too dark with things😅
@@equanimity92 Hey now, I wasn't complaining, I loved your idea! I just feel like the darker tales like the Future Trunks storyline and Goku Black stuff might be as dark as they're willing to go. If they started marketing towards a more mature audience like Chainsaw Man or Jujutsu Kaisen, this story line could definitely exist 😎
im glad db new hope os doing justice to yamcha now
glad to see it! just wish the same could happen in the main storyline somehow😖
Personally, I'd rather Yamcha have a heroic death than become a super villain. To me, it's the same thing people do with Superman (Injustice) because people claim Superman is boring otherwise.
It's not a failure of the character; it's a failure of the writer(s). Akira Toriyama failed Yamcha HARD; and frankly, isn't fit to write for Dragon Ball. We need new blood like Dragongarow Lee; someone who's actually passionate about legacy characters such as Yamcha.
Also, I don't blame Goku going super saiyan, as, originally, Goku was supposed to be the Legendary Super Saiyan (i.e. there's only one every millennia).
Goku's story arc was done; and with him peranently out of the picture and Gohan being the new protagonist (as it should have been), every character would still be relevant.
The one character I _do_ blame is Vegeta. Him coming back to life is what messed up everything. With him in the picture, the never-ending clown car of super saiyans was inevitable (and with them, villains designed to be at super saiyan level instead of everyone else's level).
A very interesting analysis and take on things! I really appreciate you taking the time to share your Ideas! I especially love your notion of a new writer being given the duty to focus on fleshing out the Legacy Character's stories. I also agree with the sentiment of Yamcha being owed a chance to go out like a Hero, hence why I included it in my analysis😋. Either way, It was my goal to create a Video on Yamcha that finally gives him his flowers and starts a discussion to get the fans talking about the possible ways we can appreciate these Disrespected Legacy Characters that seem to have fallen by the wayside.
I think I managed to do an okay job of that. And its for Passionate fans like yourself, that I started making these projects on my Small little Channel. So once again, Thank you for sharing your thoughts and Support. It means the world to me🥲
@@equanimity92
I appreciate getting a reply from none other than the TH-camr themself!
I actually really enjoyed your video, and the villain story arch is definitely compelling; wouldn't mind seeing it as a 'what-if' manga/anime.
Let me tell ya, I like Dragon Ball but it's a complicated fandom.
Between the abysmal development of OG characters; the lackluster derivativeness of DB Super; and the vile vitriol of the toxic fanbase; it puts me on the love/hate fence of abandoning the franchise altogether.
its been a while since you last made one of these
Yes it has! Things haven't been easy for me, but I really appreciate you guys who have stuck with me for so long. Every little bit of support I get for my small channel gives me so much motivation and drive to continue. So thank you, Mayo! and I hope you enjoyed it
@@equanimity92 always
Awesome video, I especially love your intro and outro edits, just excellent, more than worth hitting subscribe so I can see more in the future 😎
Tysm!😁 I really appreciate the kind words and support!
The only thing missing is him being betrayed and trapped in the time chamber! 😂
Nice vid buddy
Tysm! Appreciate the kind words and support!😁👍
This is a really great video.
Tysm! really appreciate the Support. It...it means everything to me🥲
🥓 bacon. LOVE IT. I've been waiting so long it felt like centuries☹️
Thanks so much for being patient with me, Pickle Pants! I'm sorry for the long wait. Glad you enjoyed it too!
Notice vids man👍
people need to put some respect on yamcha he may not be as powerful as the godlike beings or super saiyans but near the end of the og dragon ball series he was almost as powerful if not more then cell frieza and the androids
Like the video's premise, but you've GOTTA speak up in your future vids. I had this on speaker and still struggled to hear you clearly.
Cool idea, but yamcha doesnt really have a motivation... he was never that attached to becoming the best. He seems pretty satisfied with his life. At best heal get a majin seal
Oh look here
We have a meme loving saboteur enforcing their biased will in content it doesn’t belong
Good to know
@Diainvcgtslover nah i just watched dragonball. He das done after tenshinhan broke his leg
@@kenonerboy
Nah
He still wants to improve himself to fight and become stronger
YOU are pretentious , dishonest and disingenuous
You are using ANYTHING you can to keep him from moving up and improving himself
And him being satisfied with his life after he wants a family so bad but Vegeta showed up and stole Bulma from him and caused him to have a bad legacy!?
Dude , please
Oh wait , someone is calling in …..
Oh look it’s George Jetson , he has a word to say to you
George Jetson : Bullcrap !!!
Do you have any evidence that Yamcha "cheated" on Bulma?
*Ridiculous
He could simply get the dragon balls and wish to be stronger than goku
That would be the simplest path, in theory. but I believe that the Dragon is only able to grant wishes that are within the power of those that created it. Because Goku literally has attained Godly-levels of power now...there is a chance that Shenron may not be able to grant such a wish (we've seen him reject wishes before for much lesser things) And also, Summoning The Eternal Dragon runs the greatest risk of Yamcha being caught out by his friends, as the Dragon is quite hard to miss (The sky blacks out and people would immediately be able to see that he is up to something) However your suggestion will probably be possible If Yamcha would try to travel to Namek and give Porunga a try or If he could find some way to get his hands on the Planet Sized Super Dragon Balls and make a wish, there is a chance that this could work! In my Theories, I tried to be as realistic and creative as I could so I like to use in-world items to come up with my potential scenarios. I do appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts!
