He never makes me laugh...like Roshi used to

This is why I hate DBZ sometimes...always replacing my favorite characters with some shitty ones I don't care for
I'll take Roshi over Satan anyday and I'll take Lunch over "Bland as fuck" Videl too

How did Mr. Satan replace Master Roshi? Roshi stopped being prominent long before Mr. Satan appeared, and he's hardly a replacement, Mr. Satan isn't really a perverted old man.

It's called an indirect replacement
They needed a comic relief in the show...that comic relief used to be Roshi

Love Mr. Satan! He brings some good comedy in, when he was added I felt like it was slightly more like the original Dragon Ball by throwing in a few zingers!

I've never "disliked" Mr. Satan, but I know when I was 9/10 watching the series for the first time, I didn't really understand what he was all about and I just didn't appreciate him. Now I am 23, I feel I greater understand the point of his character and I really do appreciate him. For me, he is the "saviour" of the end of DBZ. I think he is brilliant and I can see why AT likes him so much.

Also Mr. Satan beating down dead people and ghouls in Movie 12 is priceless!

Are you sure that it wasn't Goku?

I love the guy. Probably the only character I without a doubt can only imagine with Chris Rager's voice. I just laugh every time he speaks. Mr. Torque from Boderlands 2 is like Mr. Satan on crack cocaine as Chris Rager just uses his Mr. Satan voice for Mr. Torque.

It was Roshi...Roshi is the funniest character in the series by far

When he makes Krillin and Goku wear skimpy dresses just so he can perve on Lunch...while claiming it's all part of the training
That's a golden moment

Considering that it was a comedy series primarily at that point, I'm not sure any one character should be considered the comic relief. Especially when the main character is a completely dense mountain kid who has to pat people on the crotch to tell what their gender is. Not that Roshi's antics weren't enjoyably comedic, I just find it odd to treat him as the funny man of the series, when the series was all about comedy.

I remember some stuff from the Saiyan Saga...like him touching Bulma's ass when everybody at the Kame House were worried sick about the Z Fighters

I loved that guy ever since I first saw him in Cell arc when I was a kid, and I still love him.

I don't think I ever particularly disliked Satan, but I think by the time Buu rolled around and we saw a side of him distinct from his public persona that I came to seriously love him. It baffles me that there are people out there that still dislike him and think he's a pointless character, he really adds so much humor to the series past a point where there wasn't a whole lot, and I can't disparage him for being a huge service to that cause.

never hated him, never liked him... but understood why he was included considering even normal (without powers) humans needed heroes too. Sure some would view him more as an entertainer but I like to think of him more as a legitimate fighter and I would like to think that at least his first few tournament wins were all earned through hard work and not staged, I mean someone had to become the "world's strongest" and he's been defending that title for how long?

If we are going to include him among the characters who can do insane things like destroy mountains by looking at them, moving so fast that they don't get wet while traversing water, or even regenerating lost limbs... I would say at least he can inspire hope in people and the younger generation of humans without special powers have someone to look up to and improve their lives on a grand scheme of things. The dude is ridiculous and he's always in the public's eye in universe, I do wish he was more humble as a martial artist but I'll take what I can get... someone had to become the greatest fighter on earth while the heroes were doing their thing in secrecy.

I found him vastly annoying in the Cell Saga and was annoyed how he took credit for defeating Cell. The bitter taste was still in my mouth when the Buu Arc aired, so I still hated him there. However, on rewatches I really enjoyed him in the Buu Saga. Daisuke Gōri is hilarious and does a superb job of bringing Satan's egotistical coward personality to life. Not to mention Mr. Satan's interactions with Mr. Buu are great.
