He can be pretty funny. He's one of my favorite examples of a character sticking around long after their relevance.

Eh, he's not bad. We never get any real insight into his character, so I doubt he'd even appear in a top 10 villains list, despite my love of the Androids/Cell arc.

I'll go for a long shot here, Omega Shenron.

His design (and, of course, concept) is very admirable. I haven't seen his portion of GT in quite some time, so I can't comment on his character just yet. But he's not very close to my favorites.

As a heads-up, don't forget to use the Japanese names in this thread, to avoid confusion (in this case, being Super Yī Xing Long). :thumbup:

I could get into it and talk about GT Pan vs. Super Pan vs. Z Pan, but none of them are a favorite, so I'll just leave it at that.

He's definitely up there; his presence on screen always puts a smile on my face, and I do hope we see more of him in the future, but he's not my favourite.

I'm terrible at remembering the names of the Evil Dragons. I blame Funimation for ruining everything by changing all their names for no real reason. Dragon Ball wiki is useless for clearing this up, as it usually lists about two or three different romanisations of the name with no indication of which one is correct. :roll:

Anyway, how about Android #8?

Not having seen the OG DB, I don't particularly have any feelings one way or the other. His design is a mixed bag for me; on one hand, he looks like Frankenstein, but on the other... he looks like Frankenstein. :P

To be honest, I had to use DB Wikia to figure out how to romanize it. :D But don't worry about it. If you like, you can always PM me and I'll let you know the name.
Oh, and Android #8 should be just #8 or Jinzoningen #8; whichever you prefer. :wink:

#18?

She just isn't much of anything, starts off as a threat and turns to a trophy wife stronger than her husband but too weak to do anything else.

Not really. I don't find Champa funny at all. I find him to be an overweight spoiled brat.

He's just a three-eyed muscular punk and the height of his existence is whether or not he surpasses a guy just mre relevant than him (Kuririn). And even then the debate only exists because he's tall, buff and constantly trains while amounting to nothing. :crazy:

Beerus :wave:

I honestly really like Beerus. Still not favorite, but he's a very welcome addition to the main cast.

Not my favourite new character(That honour goes to Beerus), but he's great fun. Overall, he's probably somewhere up there.

Tsurusen'nin?
(This is the DB Wiki's romanisation, so apologies if it's wrong. The guy is also known as The Crane Hermit. Or in the dub, Master Shen)

Before the small text I didn't even know who that name belonged to! That said I actually like the crane hermit a lot, but nope, not my favorite......In case my username didn't already make that obvious. :mrgreen:

Definitely a "no" on that one. I don't dislike Chi-chi, but I dislike that Chi-chi.

His design is pretty awesome, but it's a bit too inconsistent with the more modern Demons such as Towa. Still, his position as Demon King is admirable, but I don't know much about his character right now.

Seeing as I mentioned her, Towa?

She's not a favorite of mine but I like the idea behind her. More should be done with her demonic science beyond enhancing Mira.

Let's see Dr. Uiro's reception.

I'm mostly indifferent, but the assassin aspect of his character seems interesting. Good design too.
