Choose the 3 main characters of Dragon Ball Super

Post by sbk » Tue May 05, 2015 6:11 pm

Inspired by a post on reddit :P

If you could pick the three main protagonists of Dragon Ball Super, which ones would you choose, and why?

My pick:
-Vegeta
-Krillin
-Gohan

Why: These three were ridiculously entertaining on Namek and were the reason the Freeza arc was the best part of DBZ. I'd love to see a grown-up version of this, I think their interactions and chemistry would be great.

You?

Goku (duh, main character!).
Oob (I really like Boo and it's a character I'd like to be given more depth through Oob).
Vegeta (his interactions with Goku are always great).

Son Goten, Uub and... Jaco, maybe. Just give to the former ones their moments.

Because I wanna see it somehow not be stupid.

Goku
Goten
Bardock

In all seriousness though Goten could use more development. Seeing Bardock again in some way would be cool too.

My number one pick would be Oob (He should become the main hero in this series and become pretty powerful.)
My number two pick would be Kamesennin (Always up to his perverted pranks :lol:)
My number three pick would be Goku (Main Character Duhhh, but he should deserve less of the main hero role this time around.)

--Son Goku
--Hakaishin Beerus (with Whis as his sidekick, ala Gill)
--Jaco the Galactic Patrolman

I don't actually care who gets picked to top the cast for the main series. I just think the interactions between these guys would be gold most of the time.

This forum is so over-dramatic that it's not even funny.

Oob (Goku's chosen successor and student)
Pan (Goku's granddaughter and the first female SSJ(?))
Bra (Vegeta's daughter and another female SSJ(?))

I'll forever lobby the idea that the young generation can step up and be the central cast. It worked with Young Justice and Legend Of Korra, both shows nobody expected to be as good as they were, and I still think it could work with Dragon Ball.

  • Goku - Self-explanatory
  • Oob - Goku's apprentice and it would be pointless to introduce him and have him go off training only to end up being a minor character *cough* GT *cough*
  • Pan - She's always seemed to be the descendant most like Goku to me. She'd be a good character to pass the torch to (likely at the very end of series).

So much Goku tho...
Brah I now know what to counter against this much Kakkarot!

Broly, Legendary Super Saiyan Broly, and Legendary Super Saiyan 3 Broly. Take that!

I do like the idea of this. Oob learning from Goku and Goku learning how to be a master from Kamesennin. It would be a neat way of furthering Son Goku's progression as martial artist. Of course I expect this series to take place right where F left off rather than where the manga did.

3 is hard to choose. Goku and Uub as 1 and 2. The third I would like to see a mix of Piccolo, Vegeta, Goten, Trunks and Pan.

-PIccolo
-Goten
-Trunks

Piccolo because he can act as a mentor to the boys while still being a badass fighter, and the boys because they wre really underused when they both had tons of potential

This guy gets it, although I'd throw Vegeta in as well simply because I love his interactions with Goku.
