What character from the series and/or from Super should reveal more of their story?

Zamasu. I know he just got an arc and many people are tired of seeing him. But Zamasu is supposed to be the greatest villain Goku has ever faced, because he is a God, inferior only to the Omni-king. Yet he appears only for 20 episodes, while villains like Frieza, Cell and Buu had so much time to develop and grow. I hope we get a small Arc (atleast 6/7 episodes) that explains better Zamasu's ideals, motives and sheds some light on his backstory. Maybe he had really good reason for hating mortals, like he was abused by mortals or something similiar. I feel like Zamasu's potential was wasted, they threw away his character too early. Merged Zamasu deserved atleast 10 more episodes of screen-time. Besides, isn't Present Zamasu in Hell? Maybe we could see him interact with other villains. I hope we also see more of Gowasu, he said he would find a new Apprentice (hopefully someone more mentally stable than Zamasu), so maybe we will meet him again in the future.

The android siblings 17 and 18. They go on a mini ar dealing with their past and how they ended up being captured by Dr. Gero.
Dragon Ball was always a kid series and fans should stop being in denial.

Hit for sure. They'res endless potential in seeing him become the man he is today.

I made a bet with Alee9977 that Vegeta won't be beaten quickly by an opponent. If I lose, I switch my avatar to Vegeta getting beat by hit. If I win, he switches it to Vegeta holding Black by his hair. This will last a month.

Hit. Although I'm not personally interested too much in his backstory, I was surprisingly captivated by his assassination of that mayor(?) in that random alien city in episode 71. I imagine a mini arc of Hit doing his job would kinda be like Golgo 13, but with Dragon Ball and even shades of Blade Runner. And I'm definitely okay with that.

I think Piccolo is LONG overdue to be a hero of an arc or movie.

What I'd like to see Vegeta get is similar to what Sasuke got in Shippuden, his own adventure with his own villains that's completely seprate from Goku.

Goten and Trunks. I am not the biggest fan of these 2 but, the Black arc and this mini Hit arc showed a tiny bit of development for them. Just a bit, but it was there, at least for trunks. Goten showed a hint of growing up a little, I feel. So It's possible to make them more interesting than they really are and I would like to see that. I'm not saying they need a HUGE arc. God no. But a little 3-5 episode something could be nice. Without the Wonder God blue twins having to show up to save them last minute of course.

And throw the pilaf gang in there as well. I know there is a good chunk of people who don't like them for legitimate reasons. But I think they're amusing most of the time.

Bojack, it would be cool watching something about an evil space pirate.

Gokuu and Chi-Chi. Their relationship being the focus. A romance arc would be great.

I think it'd be cool if Piccolo got some spotlight. Maybe he could go to Namek to train, or have a kid of his own.

An arc about Goku facing old age and passing down the torch. Preferably the last arc of the series and post-EoZ, though.

A story revolving around Goku training Oob would be nice. If not that, the aftermath of their progress and where they go from there is equally preferable. I primarily want to see an arc after Dragon Ball's original ending.

I want to second all these, plus Goten (and Kid Trunks to a lesser degree)

Hercule. His road to becoming world champion and the most famous person on the planet would very fascinating to delve into. Plus, it would be a great chance to focus on more ground martial arts.

I'd also love to have arc focused on the lives of 17 and 18 before Gero captured them.

Yeah I'd love to get more on Mr. Satan and the tidbit about how Mercenary Tao killed his martial arts master

I feel like Cell should get his own spin-off manga.

Yamcha after being screwed out of appearing in RoF and the new tournament, losing his place to his retired teacher who already conceded that Yamcha had surpassed him.
