Is it unfair to use a genderbent version of a male character to be your waifu? 'Cause if it isn't then R63 Vegeta is total wife material.
You can't get more tsundere than Girlgeta.

DB I'm going with Teen Chichi, she was quite the catch on her teen days.
DBZ- 18, she's easily the hottest
DBS- Videl, I just love her design when the 20th century DB art kicked in.

Really? I've always thought it was just how Japanese native speakers pronounced the English word "wife": 「ワイフ」
I choose
Bulma!
I am not an english speaker and I'm self-taught. Please excuse my awful grammar, I'm doing my best to improve.

It is, the terms simply has another meaning in this context. The actual Japanese word 'yome' is also used.

It's a toss up between 18 and Videl for me. They both have that "I don't fuck around" attitude that is pretty hot but I lean a bit more towards 18 because I feel like we would get along better. Pigtail Videl is still a total cutie though.

I always had a thing for Celipa/Fasha. Even if she didn't do much. I like her demeanor from Tenkaichi 3. She kind of reminds me about Meredith McCoy's No. 18 a bit in personalty, where she seems tough and hardy, but calm and loyal while neutrally aligned. I wasn't a fan of the goody-two-shoes, perfect house-wife archetype used for Gine because I find it boring, like how Videl pretty much became.
Then there is Saiyaman Arc Videl I prefer a lot more. I liked her with her hair in those low-tails and her tomboyish, assertive, and lightly stuck up attitude then, while she isn't as extreme as the modern, overemotional sociopath anime girls of today when it comes to those traits. (I hate Tsunderes), I like her character because she seemed the most natural and was just skeptical about things reasonably, kind of like Indigo League Arc Misty from Pokemon. She doesn't mess around, and logical but can respect people as well.
Zephyr wrote:The fandom's collective fetishizing of "moments" is also ridiculous to me. No, not everyone needs a fucking "shine" moment. If that's all you want, then all you want is fanservice, rather than an actual coherent story. And of course those aren't mutually exclusive; you could have a coherent story with "shine" moments! But if a story is perfectly coherent (and I'm really not seeing any compelling arguments that this one is anything but, despite constantly recurring, really poorly reasoned, attempts to argue otherwise), and you're bemoaning the lack of "shine" moments as a reason for the story's poor quality, then you're letting your thirst for "shine" moments obfuscate your ability to detect basic storytelling when it's right in front of you.

Videl is also super rich thanks to Mr. Satan.

Honestly, Bulma is my favourite, but I think Lunch would be the uh, most fun, so I'll go with her. However, gotta give ups to this girl:
Also Zangya and Fasha/Selipa get honorable mention.

Probably Gine. She would be a good caretaker (I am an extremely lazy guy who can't do anything for shit) and she seems like she would be very caring towards me.
I know some people wished Goku's mom would be more of a badass, but sometimes simple is the way to go.
On the hottest chart, Videl with pigtails is my favorite, 18 comes close.
There is also some very cool fan art with Gine!

Definitely #18 or Chi-Chi for me. They're both beautiful and very strong too.
Trunks: These androids are ruthless, they delight in causing pain and chaos.
Living on Earth in my time is like living in a nightmare. Always running and hiding and looking for a way out.
Trunks: I can't find hope in the present, but if I change the past can I find hope for the future?
Android 18: Ugh! I hate you!
Trunks: You hate the fact that you're powerless to stop me. That you're completely outmatched. Well imagine feeling what you do now all of the time like the people of this planet do. Fools! How do you think my master Gohan felt when you ganged up on him in the rain and he had no way out? Well, now it's your turn, I hope you enjoy it.
Trunks: Gohan, why'd you have to do it, why'd you have to leave me? It's not fair! Oh gosh no... what did they do to you Gohan? You were my best friend, you were everything to me... everything! This just isn't fair! Gohan, Gohan, GOHAN!

After the new episodes I'm wondering if Future Mai is in the running for anyone.
