Which characters could be used for a spin-off?
Not that it would ever happen, but if there were to be a spin-off or two of Dragon Ball, which characters do you think have good potential?
For me, the character with the most story possibilities would be Uub, as Goku's successor. Starting with his training and letting him continue down his own path.
I also think a backstory to Muten Roshi would be great. There's plenty of potential there. From his training with Mutaito to the rift that clearly formed between him and the Crane Hermit.
Lastly, I think Son Gohan senior could have a good story, from his training with Roshi and such, ending when he finds Goku.

Re: Which characters could be used for a spin-off?
Realistically, the adventures of Goku training Uub.
Unrealistically, Yamcha's life, Freeza's life, Upa's quest to be strong like his dad, what Lunch does on a day-to-day basis... All have varying interest to me.

The adventures of Mr. Satan and Mr. Buu. It'd be totally awesome.
I like the other suggestions so far too though.

Mr. Satan and Mr. Boo. Toriyama said he'd like to do a spin-off with them.

I always wanted to see Toriyama actually do a manga about Mr. Satan and Mr. Boo. I've also always wanted to see Goku and Oob's training.

Re: Which characters could be used for a spin-off?
For a Dragon Ball spin-off I'd like it to chronicle different characters and not just one character/group. One chapter could be about Mr. Satan and Boo's shenanigans and the next could be about Gyumao and Son Gohan's training under Master Roshi.
That or the everyday life of the Tenkaichi Budokai announcer.

Actually, yeah, Mr Satan and Buu is the other one I had on my mind, I just forgot about it.

Re: Which characters could be used for a spin-off?
I second a realistic vote for Uub. But as far as wacky sitcom situations go (and which were actually touched upon by the series):
Mustache!Vegeta and family.
Mr. Satan and Buu cannot get enough credit.
And of course, Karin and Yajirobe. "What, with the hole again? Is that all you ever think about?"

No joke, one of my favorite anime additions ever is Freeza and Cell being best friends in Hell. I would watch that series any day, but preferably if it played out like an evil version of the buddy-cop genre.The adventures of Cell and Freeza in Hell.
Re: Which characters could be used for a spin-off?
Goku, Goten and Trunks in on epic journey throughout space and beyond, with the comradeship, fun and adventure any Dragonball fan would enjoy.
Oh, wait...

Going by the manga those two don't even have bodies.Perfect wrote:The adventures of Cell and Freeza in Hell.
But yeah anyone besides Goku, Vegeta, Present Trunks, Goten, and Gohan would be cool.
It's not too late. One day, it will be.

Speaking of which, Future Trunks has a lot of potential.goku the krump dancer wrote: But yeah anyone besides Goku, Vegeta, Present Trunks, Goten, and Gohan would be cool.

"Life in the Dead Zone: A Garlic Jr story" and it will nothing but Garlic Jr doing random stuff in the darkness. Just joking.
Really I agree with everyone else with Mr Satan and Buu, that would be cool.

Yeah he probably has the most after Uub and after him(Trunks) would most likely be Tenshinhan.Kingdom Heartless wrote:Speaking of which, Future Trunks has a lot of potential.goku the krump dancer wrote: But yeah anyone besides Goku, Vegeta, Present Trunks, Goten, and Gohan would be cool.

Goku training Uub would be interesting to see, or how Goten and Trunks open their sword-related martial arts school in DBO.
On hiatus.

I would honestly like to see a spin-off of Goten and Trunks super-duper-space-adventurer-exxxxxxxtravaganza! I did find them annoying but hey maybe spin-off featuring those two wouldn't be so bad.
They did?! Man wish this game was released in the US already.Chuquita wrote:Goten and Trunks open their sword-related martial arts school in DBO.
Re: Which characters could be used for a spin-off?
A series going even further into Goku and Vegeta's wacky competitive rivalry shown in the JSAT Special
Yamcha: Do you remember the spell to release him - do you know all the words?
Bulma: Of course! I'm not gonna pull a Frieza and screw it up!
Master Roshi: Bulma, I think Frieza failed because he wore too many clothes!

Tenshinhan and Chaozu.

But he's also a fighter, through and through [...] he fight until he has, in no uncertain terms, beaten his enemy on terms they can both acknowledge. He doesn't want to kill anyone, or even prove that he can win... he just wants to know he can. He's an ineffably charming bastard who's manly leanings were really incendental, and yes, the fact that he was voiced by a squeaky woman made the combination perhaps all the more charming.
