They usually just dress like that on gamecons, animecons or whatever.

Vegeta. I always found him to be quite obnoxious. Really, he falls into the same category as "former enemy to become friend of Goku." It just takes him a lot longer. I think his motivations for acting the way he does are logical within the context of the story and it's good that he stays true to them, but he just seems to make things worse for the group a good amount of the time and is always looking out for himself. Piccolo was evil for a while, but at least he wasn't a liar and didn't resort to trickery. It's been a while since I read the entire series, but Vegeta always left a bad taste in my mouth. I know he has a lot of fans, but I'm just not one of them personally. That being said, I think he is a good character that is involved with others as everyone else is practically buddy-buddy while he's still someone that can't fully be trusted practically until the series is over.

Broly is pretty much a character I loathe and hate. Other than that, I can stand all characters.

Broly (Who doesn't?)
Yamcha (Hasn't won any real fights EVER)
Vegeta (He's obnoxious)
Kid Trunks (Ditto)

Gohan, but only with the Stephany Nadolny dub for some reason. I actually don't mind Masako Nozawa, Seffron Henderson, or Colleen Clinkenbeard.
I wipe it off the tile, the light is brighter this time, everything is 3D blasphemy.
My eyes are red and gold, the hair is standing straight up, this is not the way I picture me.
I can't control my shakes, how the hell did I get here? Something about this, so very wrong.
I have to laugh out loud, I wish I didn't like this. Is it a dream or a memory?

Me. I don't love him, but I don't get the hate he receives 'round these parts. Now, I hate most of his fans (of the OMG powerz maximum variety), but that's a different thing altogether.

I think most of the hate stems from the community. Once I got passed that, I didn't really hate him anymore, just dislike his character.

Same. I just find his characterization utterly forgettable.

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.

Broli's characterization is no more forgettable than many of the other movie villains. Slug, #13...even Bojack's not got much going for him, other than his appearance.

I don't think there's really a character I hate, however there are a ton of characters I couldn't care less about.

No, but it's because he doesn't show up enough to hate anything about.

Those people are the only people I could truly hate from the series. Not only did they doom the planet by pissing off Buu and making him stronger but they shot a puppy...assholes!
...Wait what are you doing? Are you still reading this? I finished what I had to say, why don't you move on to the next post?

And at least Yamcha actually respects Goku or anyone that's not Tenshinhan (the love of Chaozu's life).

Heck even Vegeta shows more gradititude towards Goku than he does.
