That's actually even more insulting than if Yamcha were just weaker than 18 and got stomped. So now not only can he not stand up to 18 without being an android himself but now he's so weak that he manages gets kidnapped and roboticised by an old man?
I guess it wouldn't be Dragon Ball without some kind of Yamcha Fail, even if it's just implied.

As seen in the series, a powerful fighter can pass out with gas (everyone against Pilaf and Tenshinhan at the hands of Roshi before facing Piccolo daimao) or other weapons.
Gero wouldn`t necessarily have to overtake them with strength.

Thus it's 'roots' were always Brolly vs. Vegetto.
But that was plausible as it was an alternate Broly, not the Broly we know. For all we knew, it was a good guy Broly who took Goku's place. Thus it is not fanwanking. Fanwanking was showing him for half the comic.
Holy shit i didnt expect this! That explains everything (why Yamcha is so strong, why he is so young). I guess Tien is number 16 then. Awesome twist

. I think 17 was built in the original Yamcha's image for an infiltration mission but got found out and recruited to the side of good, possibly after the fight with Cell. But it also means he might not be able to get stronger. Can androids still learn techniques?

. . . . Huh. I am shocked but pleasantly so. It's not impossible that Dr. Gero had to use someone else as a test subject and ran into a young bandit named Yamcha.

I wonder how he learned of his past though? And what about Puar? Where they still buddies? Maybe Puar was #19?

Still hope Tenshinhan is not a cyborg though as his background story is a interesting part of the early Dragonball series. Unlike Yamcha who we know next to nothing about before he ran into Goku and co. Just "IMO" and it would not "ruin everything" if it where the case but I feel this twist is too interesting for Yamcha to water down with another character or two. *shrug*
All and all, "What a twist!"

Yay, Yamcha's actually getting some backstory.

Actually I had a late lapse of common sense and figured that it is possible Yamcha is pulling a fast one on Eighteen. It's possible that he is bluffing about being a cyborg like her just so that she may forefeit or go easy on him and then go out with him.

Thats not very likely considering Yamcha`s youthful look.

Well it's a possiblity I considered . . . youth can be restored with the Dragonballs. Not to mention even at the end of the series (including GT or no) Yamcha still seems to look somewhat young except for some token creases on the face. Ah heck you're probably right anyway.
I look forward to Eighteen's reaction in the next page!

Possibly. I have my doubts about the whole "Yamhca is an Android" thing, since it's a very extraordinary statement.

Am I the only one who thinks Tenshihan is #18 and not #16?

No. I also think he is #18 because #16 was a robot and not a cyborg. But we can not be sure that he is a cyborg at all. Krillin doesn`t seem to be and Tenshinhan`s age is always very hard to tell, especially since we still haven`t seen him very much in this fan manga.

It might not be much of a fight if his psychoanalysis drives 18 to tears and the two embrace to a collective "Aww" from the crowd.

Tenshinhan's probably #18, seeing as #16 was fully mechanical. It stands to reason that the two cyborgs replace the two cyborgs.

I actually like his finger sticking out of the panel slightly...it spices the art up a bit.

Damn, I actually forgot that this was still going on.
EDIT: Wait a minute. Why were those little Buus destroyed by Gohan's kiai but not Vegetto's blast which still has Broly engulfed?
It's not too late. One day, it will be.

Because the blast was created by Vegetto. Its power is maximum.

Because from their perspective the blast isn't moving anymore. It's probably not as strong when it's not moving because it's lost all momentum to them.
Gohan's blast, from the other hand, is moving as fast as it normally would from the perspective of someone moving infinitely fast...
Huh. Fuck physics. This is Dragon Ball.

Maybe all of the power of the blast is focused on keeping Broli locked up? :p
I'm actually liking this back and forth narrative they're doing this chapter.
