Certainly not. I was just asking if these characters appeared on GT.

I think it's that you didn't phrase it as a question.

Well, in the manga version of the Jump special she was there along with Tenshinhan. I think that's as close as we'll ever come to knowing the truth. Well, that and the filler at the beginning of Z. I like to think she did, but sneezed back to her blue haired form just long enough for him to run away.

As the manga states, Lunch went chasing after Tenshinhan. I figured that she never found Tenshinhan & Chaozu because they kept moving from place to place. I assume she gave up after a while--unless Toriyama decided she's still chasing him, just for comic relief.

After Tenshinhan won the 22nd Tenkaichi Budokai, I believe. Her blonde form was going on about him being brutal and wanted him to join her on Kame-Sennin's island.

... I didn't know this but when I went to it to check I found the panel you were talking about. That almost, almost makes up for the whole scene where the human senshi save the non-fighters with their signature attacks being missing from the manga.

Of course, then I realize Tenshinhan could have saved Ranchi nad maybe Chaoutzu from falling debris. But I should really stop complaining and just be happy she was there at all. Argaflarga.

Yes, I remember. Does she ever encourages Tenshinhan while he is fighting Goku? I remember something about her encouraging him in the anime.

On guide DRAGONBALL FOREVER, thei ask Akira if Lunch finds Tenshinhan.

Akira says that he "suposes" that she is with Tenshin.

Only if in the last ten years gap, cause before we never see her with him. Only Chaozu.

There's a part of me that doubts that, even if it is from the author himself.

He remembers who Lunch is? That's news to me! :lol:

Does anyone have a translation or something to prove this? What exactly does he say?

Here's the scan..

I can read japanese..
But I think I'm not able to make a good translation to english.
It's better someone who understand japanese and is fluent in english to help with a translation to know exactly what is said...

well, since the story of "Swapped Heads" is true, then it does make's sense that Lunch was added in the anime at the final battle with Kid Buu

On-topic, I was totally unaware that there were strips not published in the 42-volume release. How many are there besides that Christmas one?

Umm... If she didn't appear, what's this?

Well, I don't know if that was supposed to be Lunch or not, but my point was he used Seru instead of Cell. I don't need to know a lick of Japanese to tell you how ridiculous that is. Seru, while technically correct, is the romanization of the Japanese pronunciation of an English word. Therefore, the proper English name would be THE ENGLISH WORD. It's like Hellsing fans using "Arucard" instead of "Alucard". I'll give you a hint: Bram Stoker's novel wasn't called "Dracura". Just because a name is used in a Japanese work does not inherently make it Japanese.

EDIT: :oops: I suddenly realize that you probably weren't talking to me. Sorry about the nerd rage.

Hmm. While I can't see the whole thing, it looks like her truck says "Ranchi Express," so I'm going to have to assume that that's probably Lunch. I've never seen this episode before, so I don't know why I always assumed it would have been her blonde form that would show up here. Well, probably because her later appearances seemed to give up on showing the good form because the evil form was a more interesting character. But I digress. Glad to see she started her own business. At least SOMEONE in this series has a career. She just had to leave the series and all the other main characters to do it. I wonder what that says...

Yamcha and Gohan had careers. And so did everyone in the first tournament Goku and Krillin entered. Also Goku (and his family) eventually became a farmer. :x
