Lunch hasn't been a regular character since 1989. Is it really any surprise that she isn't needed here?

But the same can be said about the Pilaf Gang and yet they have returned in full force. Is Launch under some sort of cut off point? The argument here doesn't really make much sense...
Going on hiatus. Too much stuff in RL to deal with for me to keep up with posts here for now. Was fun, hope you all have a nice day and future! Volt signing off.

I think she is very needed. I mean if you're saying she's not needed in the sense of "There is no need for her cause she couldn't fight!" then we might as well get rid of everyone not named Goku, Vegeta, Beerus and Whis. Seriously, just never show Krillin and the gang ever again. They aren't needed cause they can't fight! However, if we're talking in terms of a good gag or just ya know...having another good character running around for those amazing slice of life episodes, I think Launch is VERY needed and would spice the cast up a little more.
Will she further progress the plot?
Will she be repeating the same ol stale gags?


I don't read this series for the fights you know (they're subpar at best, especially post Saiyan Saga).

The question is, does she need to progress the plot? I mean if every character only progressed the plot, we'd be running out of plot to progress. You can have characters for reasons other then plot progression. I also never felt Launch's gag got stale, it was honestly a fun moment each time. But the other thing is, there are new characters who can interact with her gag...I would actually love to see a gag like Blue Launch interacting with Beerus and his fur causing her to sneeze. I don't know where it'd lead but...I'm sure it'd be a fun time.
