Characters with the Most Unexplored Potential
Re: Characters with the Most Unexplored Potential
#18...of course. It would have been cool to learn about her past before becoming an android, and also if she took part in more fights after the tournament.

Re: Characters with the Most Unexplored Potential
I would have liked to have seen more about Chaozu. He doesn't really do much after the Saiyan Saga he basically disappears (minus the filler on Kaio-samas planet and when you see him at the beginning of the Trunks Saga).

I was going to say Oob, but then I remembered GT exists. So I'm going to say Goten. He could've become stronger than Gokū, but he was too busy going on dates with dumb chicks to train.

Re: Characters with the Most Unexplored Potential
I disagree. Saiyans were cold and ruthless but they still had some form of brotherhood among friends and family. Raditz tried to get Goku to join him and he even believed Vegeta & Nappa would revive him. That was even Nappa's first idea for the Dragonballs. Vegeta was an asshole even by Saiyan standards. Seeing Raditz develop and evolve would've been interesting.Savage68 wrote:No, that's not quite true.batistabus wrote:Their personalities are completely different other than being evil and Saiyan.
Raditz was Vegeta, except that he couldn't go on and on about his super-elitism. Besides that, they would've had the exact same "character development," because they were both cliched arrogant, evil alien warriors. We definitely didn't need two of those guys hanging around. One was hardly bearable.

Vegeta. He had the potential to completely disappear after the Freeza arc, however he didn't.

NOOOOOOO. Not a freakin school ?!!!!Chuquita wrote:I'm also gonna say Uub. I'm kind of hoping that DBO will give some new information on what happened to him after the manga. *Also not including GT*.
Number 2 would be Bura if only because if in DBO Trunks runs off to create a martial arts school with Goten, does that mean she becomes the new Capsule Corp heir?
Trunks becomes Seto Kaiba! And that's that!
Curse this DBO or whatever the heck it means.
I give my vote to Yamcha. I didn't even know he had Wolf-ability untill i saw a clip of the DB-remake movie. And that's just sad.

DBO is an acronym for Dragon Ball Online, it's a video game like World of Warcraft. The Story is written by Toriyama.Ahiru77 wrote:

Mr. Satan.
Seriously.
If he trained with the superhumans he could have gone the distance.

Re: Characters with the Most Unexplored Potential
Don't forget nearly all the art is also by Toriyama too. It's pretty much the closest thing to an continuation of the series we'll ever get.Blue wrote:DBO is an acronym for Dragon Ball Online, it's a video game like World of Warcraft. The Story is written by Toriyama.
Most unexplored potential? Tough one, you could say Goten and Trunks' potential was total unexplored, as they never took training seriously after the Boo arc. I dunno, a lot of characters seemed to max out their potential, such as Kuririn, Tenshinhan and Yamucha.
I suppose I agree with the Oob comments, he obviously has the most potential, being a reincarnation of Boo and all.
GT is pretty much fan-fiction at this point, so I'm quite anxious to hear what Oob did after the end of Dragon Ball.

Re: Characters with the Most Unexplored Potential
Raditz suddenly remembered that he had a brother when he needed more power in order to subjugate a planet. And what happened when that brother defied him? His son gets kidnapped, he's ordered to murder 100 Earthlings, and soon has a target on his own head. Because he wanted his son back. And what happened when Raditz himself was killed? His 'comrades' couldn't have cared less, and casually wrote him off as being a weakling.Travis Touchdown wrote:Saiyans were cold and ruthless but they still had some form of brotherhood among friends and family.

Re: Characters with the Most Unexplored Potential
Raditz is undoubtedly an asshole, but I think it's more due to mob mentality. He, Nappa, and Vegeta are the only 3 living Saiyans and they easily conquer any planet they try to. Vegeta is the baddest of all and he thinks that he'd have his support. Raditz isn't as strong as a personality as Vegeta and would have to deal with being outclassed. His new leader would be the exact opposite of Vegeta and so he would act differently with him.Savage68 wrote:Raditz suddenly remembered that he had a brother when he needed more power in order to subjugate a planet.

Re: Characters with the Most Unexplored Potential
Vegeta was still an asshole by Saiyan standards.... Nappa suggested using the DBs to revive Raditz, Vegeta was like 'naw, we don't need a weakling like him'. Nappa himself was dying and asking for help, Vegeta killed him off for the same reason. Hell, Nappa was still surprised that Vegeta killed off a Saibaman.

That changes Raditz's core personality...how, exactly?batistabus wrote:Raditz is undoubtedly an asshole, but I think it's more due to mob mentality.

Re: Characters with the Most Unexplored Potential
Saiyans, on the whole, are jerks. They willingly signed up to work for an emperor-like horrific monster like Freeza to raze and wreck entire planets one after another, because it satiated their innate urge to fight.

B-b-but, I thought that they were honorable peace loving people that just liked a good brawl and were deceived by and taken advantage of by Frieza...Kaboom wrote:Saiyans, on the whole, are jerks.

WHAT'S GOING ON?!??!

Yamcha: Do you remember the spell to release him - do you know all the words?
Bulma: Of course! I'm not gonna pull a Frieza and screw it up!
Master Roshi: Bulma, I think Frieza failed because he wore too many clothes!

Bra of course. Half Saiyajin, daughter of two major characters. They could've done so much with her...

Re: Characters with the Most Unexplored Potential
Trunks
Goten
Mr. Buu
Uub
Pan
Bra
Marron (Come on. Daughter of Krillin and 18 has to count for something)
These were the people who should have been the main cast of GT. They were the people who were logically the next in line for the spotlight, but they were shafted for the most part for ~GOKU~.
Oh and Tenshinhan. His disappearance after the Cell arc was utter bull.

Right. Just like Goten is Gohan, only with different hair.Rory wrote:But it's just Trunks.. but a chick.Bura wrote:Bra of course. Half Saiyajin, daughter of two major characters. They could've done so much with her...
Your comment makes no sense. It's pretty obvious that Bra has a completely different personality than her brother.
