Characters you would like to meet

Post by Eire » Fri Mar 16, 2012 7:07 pm

I hope I don't double any thread.
"Interesting characters" usually don't have much in common with "characters that I'd like to meet". Characters with strange psychic traits and other deviations are nice to read about, but nobody with common sense would like to see them in reality.
Do you think that you would befriend any DB character? Find a common language, something to do together, considering that from their POV you are one of those bystanders who usually serve as background to their fights?

From my perspective- every pure blood Saiyan is ruled out. Selfish jerks obsessed about their powers that can be admired when we are protected by fourth wall. Everyone from male cast that have unsolved problems with sexuality- no. Anyone who can and would be glad to destroy my home-no. Chi-Chi-just no.

I think I'd find a common language with Gohan, convince him that superhero stuff is for preschoolers and he should stick with scholarship. I'd also like to meet young Bulma- colleague who has no problems with boys is always welcome. Also I have some ideas that she might check and bring to life :mrgreen:

1. Lord Freeza (my favourite villain)
2. Perfect Cell (the perfect being and villain)
3. Son Goku (he's just kinda like my favourite character and he wears a cool uniform)

In real life I'd like to meet Masako Nozawa (Goku/Gohan/Goten/Burdock/Tullece), Dameon Clarke (Cell) and Chris Ayres (Freeza), to take photos and autographs. :P

I would love to meet and speak with Freeza and Cell, given I have protection against any of their attacks in case they feel the need to attempt to kill me. Gohan would be cool to meet, I'd have a few conversations with him. Goku seems like a person who would be a good person to have as a friend. You can add Goten, Trunks, Chi-Chi, Bulma, Krillin, and Yamcha to the list, too.

Kuririn, Yamucha, Gohan, and Tenshinhan are perfectly decent people I would like to meet at any circumstance.

-I wouldn't want any pure-breed Saiya-jins around my place (they'll ransack your kitchen), especially when they go Super because they'll destroy it, and they're social misfits.

-Piccolo would make a good mentor but hard-to-relate-to friend.

-Yajirobe is an embarrassment to nature.

-Mrs. Briefs and Chi-Chi should stay in the kitchen.

-Oolong will make good use during a barbecue.

Goku didn't die in GT. The show sucked him off so much, it was impossible to keep him in the world of the living, so he ascended beyond mortality.

I always side eye the people who say "Now my kids/today's kids can experience what I did as a child!" Nigga, who gives a fuck about your childhood? You're an adult now and it was at least 15 years ago. Let the kids have their own experience instead of picking at a corpse.

I find these choices kind of funny since if they were real and you did get to meet them they'd most likely kill you right away.

If I had a choice of who to meet it would probably be Future Gohan. A more risky option would be present timeline Android 17. He seemed really cool and laid back and I doubt he'd be nearly as hostile as the main villains or his future counterpart.

1.) Paikuhan
2.) Goku
3.) Tien
4.) Vegeta
The Dragonboxes are like a middle aged woman who still looks good through simply taking good care of her skin and body with maybe a tiny bit of makeup while the Orange Bricks are like a middle aged woman who get's 50 tons of botox, makeup and plastic surgery in order to look younger and as a result looks even worse. ~ ringworm128

Gohan and Bulma, definitely; I could hang out with them.

While Goku is my favorite, there isn't enough food or powerful sparring partners in the real world to keep him satisfied.

I would like to meet Kaio-sama, he would make me laugh all day. Also Maron...I don't think I need to explain for that one.

:lol: Get out of my head!

Hmm...I'd definitely be down to meet Kuririn, he'd be a fun kind of guy to hang out with. He'd probably be pretty good at teaching you the basics in a way that DOESN'T almost kill you to, since if we're talking Z era I don't think Roshi would be much up to training anyone again.

Goku would be fun to hang out with for a while I guess, but I think I'd get annoyed with him after a while.

All jokes about female character hotness aside (well, mostly aside), there's few I think I could put up with long enough for that to even be fun...Android 18 or Videl definitely though. 8)

I'd love to meet Goku, if only for a few minutes. His carefree attitude sounds like fun. Gohan and Goten would be great too (especially as children; God knows my teeth would rot from the sheer cuteness, but I don't care XD). Future Trunks would be awesome as well, what with him being polite almost to a fault, even if he might be a little too depressing at times.

As for female characters, there really aren't that many that I can really bring myself to meet. Maybe Videl, but only the more mellow Videl, not the ultra-bitch at the beginning of the Buu saga. Blue-haired Lunch could be a great house guest too, but I wouldn't wanna risk it with her, lest she sneeze and try to pump me full of lead. :lol:
