Re: Old characters you want to see in Dragon Ball Super?
Same topic, just with other words, but okay, my list again:
• Bardock
• Gine
• Tights
• Jaco
• Uub
• Son Goten
• Trunks
• Gotenks
• Tarble
• King Vegeta
• Lazuli
• Lapis
• Lapis' children
• Pan
The addition of the remaining Kaios and Kaioshins would also be interesting.

Re: Old characters you want to see in Dragon Ball Super?
Gine is an old character? Or am I misunderstanding.
Note, I dont hate Gine, while what I heard of Dragon Ball Minus I ¨didnt quite like, I do hope Gine is more developed and showcased.

Chronologically, yes. And yeah, hope she appears. She looks cute, just needing character development. xD

Re: Old characters you want to see in Dragon Ball Super?
I personally feel we've seen enough of Pilaf. His appearance in Battle of Gods was understandable, since it was the first new material in ages, but he doesn't really fit the tone of the series at this point to me. He worked in the lighthearted early Dragon Ball, and left at a good time with the Great Demon King Piccolo. It was a well done move to showcase that the series had gotten darker and had went past the cartoony villains like Pilaf.
I don't want to be accused of acting like Dragon Ball is "hardcore seinen adult" stuff, but I think we got enough Pilaf in Dragon Ball, especially in the anime. Him and his gang were good gag characters, but they don't belong in a post "gag series" Dragon Ball in my eyes. That's not to say that Super can't have lighthearted and silly moments.

Re: Old characters you want to see in Dragon Ball Super?
Hey! I think you are Latin American too! I do hope she gets to fight, even in a Flashback.
Also I find it weird that Toriyama retconed Bardock into being more heroic and touchy feely....while complaining that Toei made Goku too heroic and touchy feely.
I actually think Dragon Ball Minus retcons can be made more palatable with further exploration and development.

Re: Old characters you want to see in Dragon Ball Super?
Yeah I agree, I'm not too fussed on Pilaf I just don't really think their characters are relevant nor will they ever be. I get that they're one note villains and though that is essentially the gag, I hope that they stay hidden now that they've got their money finally.Metalwario64 wrote:I personally feel we've seen enough of Pilaf.

Re: Old characters you want to see in Dragon Ball Super?
A fight? That's... Well that would be amazing considering she actually doesn't fight. What you are asking for is in reality a scene where Bardock shows up and saves her. That would also be cool, to say the least. Not only more of both and character development, as we would be able to see the Saiyans' "rarity" of relationship. xDCure Dragon 255 wrote:Hey!

My only complaining regarding to Bardock is his design. His design in the TV Special and Chapter 307 was badass enough to change. There wasn't need to do anything with it.
And I totally agree with you on that one.

Re: Old characters you want to see in Dragon Ball Super?
Pretty much the same as the others here. I want Lunch, Lazuli, pretty much everyone from the OG Dragon Ball gang, Bora, Upa, Karin, maybe Baba, Tenshinhan, Choazu, Tarble, Pilaf from time to time.
Ha-chan and Suno would be nice to see again too. (I kind of stole those, but I couldn't think of them earlier and I do like those two.)

Re: Old characters you want to see in Dragon Ball Super?
Not an old character, but I'm actually kind of curious if Toriyama will incorporate Jaco in here more. maybeevenleadhimintohisownserieshmmmmmmmmmmm?
But, yeah more Tenshinhan would be nice, especially if he becomes more of a regular like towards the end of Dragon Ball. Maybe Yamcha and Lunch, if Toriyama can think of something.

Not really an "old" character but Jaco would be fantastic.

Yes. Tarable. I'd love to see him again. Also, more Tien, Yamcha, Puar and Oolong would be welcome.Hellspawn28 wrote:I would like to see #8, Tarble and #17 back.

Re: Old characters you want to see in Dragon Ball Super?
I don't really want to see any characters again without good reason. If, for example, there is some space travel or something, I wouldn't mind is Jaco was their escort and they ran into Tarble or something in order to further the plot, that's fine. Forcing them in just for the sake of seeing them is not the path I'd like for this series to go though.

Re: Old characters you want to see in Dragon Ball Super?
Well yeah, I'm sure no one here wants them to just be thrown in there, that would make you wish they weren't there to begin with.TheDevilsCorpse wrote:I don't really want to see any characters again without good reason.

Probably only 17 and Launch. I think the cast is big enough as it is to be honest.

Re: Old characters you want to see in Dragon Ball Super?
...I think a better question is who's not going to get included in the main group because clearly they can't jam-pack everyone and their mothers aboard the Super train...
As for who I want to see in the series, it might be best to wait it out till we actually know what the general plotline and the tone of the series will be, but I like the youngsters/new gen. Won't complain if they're included in the focal cast.
