Which characters won't be in Fukkatsu No F?

Post by Deathbringer » Sun Mar 29, 2015 11:59 am

I've been seeing various posts on different threads all saying that certain characters won't be in the new DBZ movie that comes out sometime tomorrow, I have only been following the movie by reading some articles and watching the trailers so I wasn't aware that apparently Goten and Trunks won't be in it? Also someone said that Majin Boo won't be there and we also won't see Bra (who should have already been seen in Battle of Gods I swear?? Isn't she older than Pan?!!)

So are people saying this just because we haven't seen these characters in trailers or is there a genuine confirmation source for which characters will and won't be in the movie?

Kinda bummed out if the Goten and Trunks one turns out to be true, they should have given them a slightly older look because I thought they should have looked a bit older in BoG but now they won't even be in the movie just what...? :|

Barring one error in one of the Daizenshuu, Bra has always been labelled 1 year younger than Pan in guidebooks since then.

The preview Manga has Gohan saying he was ordered by Bulma not to bring Goten and Trunks with him, as they are too reckless. Majin Buu is stated to be in hibernation, as per a Toriyama comment in a recent interview. And Tenshinhan had his usual line about not bringing Chaozu, but now that also includes Yamcha, because Tenshinhan is also babysitting him.
So as far as we know so far, Yamcha, Chaozu, Trunks, Goten and Majin Buu won't be appearing in the new movie. Of course by this time tomorrow we will know for sure, so keep an eye on the official thread over in the General Discussion forum.

Agreed. It could seem Toriyama wanted to make this a bit more serious, so he kept out the immature kids and goofy Majin Buu and Mr. Satan and gave the older forgotten characters some time to shine and make it look more serious.
Maybe that's the reasoning. Maybe he doesn't want to design teenage Goten and Trunks? Marron looks like she's going to be stuck in a 4 year old's body for a quite a while for example...

But they're already designed lol. EOZ anyone? Toriyama could even add his new signature "recolor" technique for them in the movie! Seirously though it's just ridiculous if they're not even in the movie...

It's a shame really, I can't imagine Goten and Trunks just sitting quietly and waiting for the fight to be over, surely if Roshi is fighting then they're strong enough to at least hang back and take out some henchmen (although "too reckless" suggests they would get overconfident and go straight for Freeza) I'm also pretty sure that Yamcha is on Master Roshi's level, if not stronger (but then again he did give up fighting during the Boo arc...but then again Roshi gave up fighting in the Piccolo Daimao arc! And didn't Yamcha regain his love of fighting in the afterlife or was that filler?) Chaotzu I was always a fan of but I eventually gave up all hope of seeing him in a fight again it's just such a shame he only ever had 2 fights and the second one wasn't really a fight more of a self-sacrifice that was entirely in vain and then he was never relevant again.

Either way if they did show up they'll probably just be used to fight Freeza's army as can be seen from the trailer (and also presumed from the film's length) even though it'll be awesome to see Tenshinhan and Roshi fighting again they don't seem to have any proper contribution to the story. Contrary to popular belief, Dragon Ball Z is more than just a bunch of fights, sadly it's a belief that Toriyama himself seems to be buying into with this movie.

But you never know, anything could happen we'll just have to see what happens.

That film better have Farmer with a Shot-Gun. It's about time Toriyama stopped shafting his character development.

Yamcha is on a completely different level from master Roshi, so are Chiaotzu and Yajirobe, so them not appearing in this movie, yet Roshi appearing and actually fighting doesn't make a single bit of sense.

As for character, who certainly won't be in Fukkatsu no F - SSJ Pan =D

It looks like Elder Kaioshin and Kibitoshin are nowhere to be seen. They usually like to watch over Goku when fighting.

That is actually rather strange. What could have happened with them?

They are most likely on Kaioshin Planet like that they are normally are. Goku hasn't seen them since the Buu saga. I still hope that we will get a cameo from them and have them watch Goku and Vegeta fight Freeza to show their support.

I would also like Elder Kaioshin to appear if only to comment on Gohan's use of Super Saiyan, though I know the chances of this occurring are slim.

They weren't really promoted for Battle of Gods or anything, but they showed up at the beginning and end of the film to comment on Beerus. The grumpy cat is waking up again for the second time in an extremely short time period. So I wouldn't completely rule out a short cameo for the Kaioshin duo. Though Gohan probably wouldn't be the subject of anything they have to say. lol

Surely Chaozu is stronger than Master Roshi. That's not a dig on Master Roshi either, I'm glad he's flexing and apparently have been doing secret training, but can't we have both characters?

Everyone who was invited to train at Kami's during the Saiyan saga made up the strongest people on the planet at the time, so Chaozu was already stronger than Kamesennin way back then.

Chaozu is probably still weaker than most of the Ginyu Force. :lol:

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've had a thought, maybe Bulma's comment of Gohan keeping Goten and Trunks away from the fight means we'll have some side scenes of what they're doing back at home..? I mean the movie can't all be fights there has to be some nice character interactions maybe they're playing a videogame or we could have some more Trunks and Mai interactions because that was really funny in BoG

Roshi could be weaker than all of the Ginyu force. Plus all they would do is mow down minor level PTOs, not take on anybody tough.

But Chaozu's also an idiot. Remember?
