Worst theories or rumours

Well he might have done so in the Future, but having a wondering eye isn't cheating by my standards. Yamcha only loved Bulma even though he looked at gym babes and playgirls.

Bulma loved Yamcha when she looked at those men, Zarbon, Blue etc.

Yamcha was mad about the whole breaking up thing but they still remained friends, but those BxV fangirls exaggerate the "Yamcha cheated on Bulma" rumour/thing by making him into a stereotypical asshole-sex-an-MustSmashBulma-MustUseBulmaforSecks-MustBetraYGOKUbystealing his wife ex-boyfriend.

He would never use Goku to get to Chichi's ass, ever

I agree with this. I always viewed it as kind of canon that Yamcha cheated on Bulma... but regardless, I always looked at him as being bitter, but still supportive. They were clearly on good terms of sorts when Trunks was born. I never liked those fan theories that he beat her or whatever weird things they come up with.

Rumors I have been tired of since they surface.... Super Saiya-jin 5+. I really think that's it, aside from all the aforementioned things. But that one always irks me. I have people all the time come into my job trying to sell this idea on me, and they're hard-pressed to believe I know more about DB than them...?

Ah well, such is life.

Trunks does actually say that Yamcha was "unfaithful"...

Though, knowing Bulma, I don't know how much we can trust her to tell the truth regarding the "blame" in a failed relationship. Plus magnify that by the fact that Mirai Trunks's life is hard enough as it is without, say, Bulma going "Well, I was dating Yamcha, but your father was hotter so I just screwed him anyway and you were the result."

Not saying either side is right, just that there's no incontrovertible evidence.

Back when it was still relevant, my friends and I were trying to figure out how Goku got off Namek when it exploded. Some of the ideas we came up with were:

"He teleported! Super Saiyans can automatically teleport!"

"Trunks rescued him and trained with him in space!"

"Super Saiyans can hold their breath in space!"

That last one was my explanation.

Even better is Goku saying to Vegeta and Nappa: "Get the fuck off this shitty planet!".

I just remembered another one when Z had first started gaining popularity in North America. Images of SSJ4 Gogeta were thought by many to be SSJ5.

Ha ha! If I could rate your post, I would Jersey. That one will always be at the top of my list too.

One of my favs is the rumor that Goku and Tullece are brothers. Aside from the television specials, that movie with Tullece is probably the one that I consider the most canon because the character Tullece isn't actually intended as a physical villian like all the other DBZ movie villians, but rather a symbolic representation of Goku if he had never parted with his Saiyan ways. I think Toriyama stated this in an interview, and I think I remember reading somewhere that he had something to do with the production of that movie.

And who can't like the rumors about DBAF?

I have to admit back when I was 10 or 11 I subscribed to the whole
"OMG DBZ IS FOR ADULTS ONLY! THIS ISN'T KID STUFF HERE!"
I really hate to admit it but I think my friends still believe me to this day so I suppose that is a rumor I spread around my school. I really despise that comment.

No, but Batman can breathe in space.

So did I, originally. But then I wasn't used to seeing death and violence in kids programing~

The ones that really annoy me are:

Kaioken works by 1/4's.
Goku was at 12,000 when he fought Nappa.
Using the Kamehameha while using the Kaioken weakens the Kaioken.
The 'Initial Daizenshuu'.
That the French translation of the Daizenshuu is 'unofficial' and mistranlsated.

So, yeah, basicly anything I see on YouTube by about three or four users who keep making stuff up to 'prove' that Freeza and Goku were at 12 and 15 million on Namek. >>

As far as I know, the "Initial Daizneshuu" is the newest rumor on the fandom. It makes me laugh because you know that people are truly desperate to prove their stupid little fan theories when they even make up the source they got it from.

The thing is, that's not even a "rumor". A "rumor" needs to be something that can actually withstand some amount of time and make its way through fandom/intellect because it has some amount of slight legitimacy or common-sense to it.

Said item has none of the above. If anything, you can call it a failed prank, or perhaps sheer "living on another planet with no sense of reality".

I vote for the latter. >> XP

No, I watched it. But I don't remember people blowing themsevles up, or losing limbs, or getting pierced through the heart with spirling beams of light.

I also hopped the "OMFG DBZ ISN'T FOR KIDS!" bandwagon when I first saw a fan sub. It was a GT fansub, and it was full of swearing. I think I was about 9 or 10 at the time. My friend had Buu saga episodes on his computer before Funi dubbed them, and one of my favorite lines was Gotenks 'saying', "What the fuck is this shit?!" when Buu was bsorbing him. What's worse is that I can actually see Gotenks saying this.
