What if Dragon Ball characters were sent to prison?

Post by DBZAOTA482 » Sun Feb 04, 2018 12:00 pm

Like what if you ignore their powers and have them sent to prison based on character (like what seen with the series and beyond it).


Goku: Convicted for burglary and sent to prison. His candidness sometimes rubs the inmates the wrong way but they respect how humble and easy-going he is. Some prisoner try to take advantage of his trusting nature but get stomp out by the friends he made in prison even though he doesn't ask for it at all. Unsurprisingly, he still keeps up with his training but makes time to think about friends and family.

Piccolo: Convicted for terrorism and sent to prison. Not wanting to deal with the drag of a trial, he simply pleaded guilty and like usual, he keeps to himself while missing Gohan.

Vegeta: Is arrested for aggravated assault which he was justified with so plead not guilty and while at prison his loud, pompous, and angry nature allowed him to rule the jail with an iron fist. He, of course, continues training.

Bulma: Arrested for... umm... tax evasion... or reckless driving? Needless to say, her jail experience is hell because her spoiled nature and privileged background led to her being bullied by inmates. She misses her wealth and luxury but most of all, her family and friends.

Chi-Chi: Convicted for murder and sent to prison. Willingly goes through the trial but still stands strongly to her innocence. At first, inmates confronted her for being the daughter of the former Ox-King (a lot of which had a vendetta against) but respect her humbleness and give her sound advice. She picks back up with her training in prison but deeply messes family and friends.

Mr. Satan: Convicted for... um... vandalism and burglary? He has it the worst experience of everyone in prison. He scared shitless during trial plus inmates are able to see through his lies and at one point, the hostility got so bad his head got busted by an inmate who couldn't control his anger around him. He became so paranoid of being killed that he stopped training and ate a bunch of junk food.


What do y'all think...? Is this good or something wrong, give your input and share some of your own scenarios?

Goku didn't die in GT. The show sucked him off so much, it was impossible to keep him in the world of the living, so he ascended beyond mortality.

I always side eye the people who say "Now my kids/today's kids can experience what I did as a child!" Nigga, who gives a fuck about your childhood? You're an adult now and it was at least 15 years ago. Let the kids have their own experience instead of picking at a corpse.

Bulma could be convicted for skipping school in the RRA arc, methinks. Trunks might be jailed for leaving Capsule Corp on short notice during the start of GT (of course there's also the time travel being illegal thing).

When I read this thread title at first I thought it would be about what kind of prison could be constructed to hold them. Like it would have a ki draining/disabling device, Katchi Katchin walls, something to stop teleportation, etc.

Future Trunks: Arrested for time travelling. And since he has done it a couple of times, he can kiss freedom goodbye. Unless he pays for his crime, by becoming a Time Patroller.
We help! ... Hmm. Always get Autobots out of messes they get into.

Fused Zamasu would be arrested for stealing the Time Ring, murdering billions of civilians, committing genocide on countless mortal civilizations and merging with the very fabric of the Universe. Fused Zamasu would despise his filthy and lowly mortal inmates and would miss drinking tea and killing pesky humans.

Krillin is arrested for being a corrupt police officer. He is the bullied guy in the cell but isn't the weakest.

Who is the guy who gets raped? Yamcha?

Investigators will finally solve the mystery of who killed the poor truck driver.

Vegeta goes to prison charged with the crime.

As opposed to being a witness to Nappa annihilating an entire city.

Honestly this would have been a great thing to witness the Pride Troopers doing.

Jako complains at HQ about Earth being the worst, and so Dyspo gets sent to do recon. He catches them traveling through time during the Trunks around and returns.

The team returns to the main timeline to be arrested. They fight for a bit but one after another each of the big names is arrested.

We'd get a prison ark, a trial ark, and a lot of personal growth. Vegeta is reminded of his sins, Goku faces the ramifications of toppling the Freeza empire, even Yamcha's past gets brought up.

Goku is the only one stuck in prison because he is, for all intents and purposes, remorseless.

Tenshinhan and Chaozu: Sentenced to prison for aggravated battery, conspiracy to commit murder, accessory to murder, and accessory to terrorism (Dr Gero and his whole scheme which would have been grounds for reporting to the police but was withheld). Chaozu would be the meek and noiseless oddball who creeps out his fellow inmates while sticking close-by to Tenshinhan who is weird in his own way but respected and allowed to keep to himself as he works out.

Roshi: Easily going down for molestation and harassment. Accessory to murder and terrorism might be debatable as he did neglect to inform law enforcement about the existence of Piccolo Daimao before it was too late. He's the annoying perverted cellmate who asks for info about his fellows' girls outside of prison while making lewd audacious comments and gestures. It gets him into a whole mess of trouble as he's constantly at the centre of fights while getting shivved in the showers and in his cell.

Yajirobe: Is put away for grand theft auto back in the Daimao arc and again during the Cell arc. Everyone knows who Yajirobe is because he's always hassling people for their food or belongings. When they start to crack their knuckles he goes running over to Goku or one of his "friends" for support; especially after he swiped something and the person is looking to portion out some prison justice.

No, Hercule was stated by Toriyama to be super strong for a human, and he has no powers. Like him ripping 3 phonebooks in half easily, punching a hole through a bus. With no ki, he moved so fast he created an after image, won the world martial arts tournament multiple times legitimately (When there weren't magic f*cking monkeys.) He scored 139 on the world tournament punching machine, much higher than anyone else there, and is honestly just a fucking beast of a human. Hercule would be the prison kingpin.

Bulma would be pretty screwed, no question. If Mr Satan's really as weak as everyone says he is then he could face challenges and eventually somebody has to see through him.
