As this is in the Dragon Ball Super forum I have excluded GT and therefore Pan and Baby. I also excluded Cell because I do not know how much from whatever happened in vol. 1-42 can be mentioned in here.
Well this is the wrong section anyway so I guess it's ok to include them.

Also, you use Roman numerals. Sign of a true Final Fantasy fan :thumbup:

And when my mother finds me investing my precious time trying to bond with this hot anime girl, I'll look straight into her eyes and say "but have you looked at the menu screen? have you actually seen the menu screen? In that very moment, she knows. She fucking knows. As she handles me the nugget pieces she previously cooked for me, she leaves my room with these words: "Persona 5 is the true savior of the JRPG".

The very fact that my name is Cetra and that my I. includes a guy who looks like a tribute to Sephiroth with his white hair, mutated purple arm, halo and black coat should show that I am a Final Fantasy fan. Not just the numbers.

This is a pretty interesting list. No Goku, Vegeta, Gohan, Future Trunks or Piccolo for one. Another surprising thing is many of these characters behave very differently. You have the straight up sadistic and evil Freeza, then you have the gentle and sweet Gine. Not hating, just think it's interesting!

I made a bet with Alee9977 that Vegeta won't be beaten quickly by an opponent. If I lose, I switch my avatar to Vegeta getting beat by hit. If I win, he switches it to Vegeta holding Black by his hair. This will last a month.

Never thought that Super, of all things, would make me change my established top 2. I'm still deciding on whether or not Black should be number 1 or 2, but I think I'm biased due to the arc being so recent if I put him in first.

1 - Son Goku
2 - Goku Black
3 - Vegeta
4 - Freeza
5 - Beerus
6 - Gotenks
7 - Kuririn
8 - Future Trunks
9 - Whis
10 - Majin Boo

Last place goes to Gohan.

Haha, thanks! Of course, I don't dislike any of those characters, but I always lean towards the less appreciated ones in general. For an immediate example, my second-favorite to favorite Mario character is Daisy, who is horribly neglected by Nintendo. :P

It's nice to have as big a Gohan fanboy as you around, though! :mrgreen:

Daisy and Luigi are way better than Peach and Mario :D
I try to not get to obnoxious about him (sorry if I ever do) but yeah, I love me some Gohan.

Yeah Hit does seem a lot like Piccolo. It is just the general expression and very calm personality.

I really don't know what you're expecting Oolong to do at this stage. Hell, he became a background character almost instantly after his debut.

Given how morbidly obsessed Gohan fans are about any shred of evidence that might indicate he'll do something, TekTheNinja is quite reasonable with his comment. Seriously, why does no one grasp the concept of giving up on a character? I did with Piccolo and I'm not losing sleep over it.
When someone tells you, "Don't present your opinion as fact," what they're actually saying is, "Don't present your opinion with any conviction. Because I don't like your opinion, and I want to be able to dismiss it as easily as possible." Don't fall for it.

I gave up on Gohan too. I you asked me 12 years ago who my favourite character was, I probably would have said Gohan. But after re-watching DBZ later down the years, I realised there really wasn't much to actually invest into him as a character beyond his "trademark" rage boosts and unlocked potential gimmick. And I started to gradually care for him less and less. It eventually got to the point when after watching GT, I didn't really care that much he barely did anything there. Now at this stage, if Gohan does something integral to the plot, I'm fine with it. And if he doesn't, I'm fine with it. Either way, I don't give a shit.

I get the feeling Toei might want to do something with him, they're the one's who keep giving him scenes here and there. Toriyama's the one who probably has nothing for him to do, really. Just look at the Super manga, its been about 10 chapters since he appeared and almost as much since anyone's even mentioned Gohan in conversation.
Since Super is a toy commercial, I don't doubt Toei would give Gohan SSBlue just for the sake of more merchandise. Hell, I'd bet my right arm they'd go full Dragon Ball Heroes with it and introduce as much shit as humanly possible to drive sales if they had full story control.
