Will Yamcha ever find true love?

Post by DBZAOTA482 » Mon Oct 24, 2016 4:50 pm

When he and Bulma first got together they seem like a match-made in heaven but then she turns out to be a nightmare girlfriend which Yamcha, being the walking doormat that he is, did absolutely nothing about. It wasn't till the 5 year timeskip to the Saiyan Saga where he had the guts to stand her up and the 3 year timeskip is when they finally broke up, but she left him for the man responsible for his death in the Saiyan Saga.

However, much to the surprise of the audience (and Yamcha) Vegeta actually managed to wife up Bulma as he was willing to challenge her unlike Yamcha who was most likely too nice and was a real go-getter while changing for the better himself.

Yamcha was suggested to have a girlfriend towards the end of the Cell Saga but that relationship probably didn't last as I hear he lost that as well.

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.

I always side eye the people who say "Now my kids/today's kids can experience what I did as a child!" Nigga, who gives a fuck about your childhood? You're an adult now and it was at least 15 years ago. Let the kids have their own experience instead of picking at a corpse.

Not if he wishes for it.

The days of the human Z-Fighters receiving character development are long gone, so my best guess is we won't get anything conclusive. Toriyama isn't exactly a detail guy.

I know he won't but I hope he does, he deserves it.

He never will but I still hope he does because he's been screwed over way more than any other character.

Yamcha has probably had on and off girlfriends that we just never see or hear about.

You really think in the 7 years from the end of the Cell arc to Buu arc, that Yamcha never dated anyone? What do you think he bought his fancy new yellow suit for?

Nobody at Toei or even Toriyama really care about Yamcha (Poor Dolt) so we'll never know. The poor guy deserves it though it's been his dream since the beginning of the series and he's not some giant womanizer that people for some reason think he is so I guess Yamcha just attracts overbearing, kinda clingy, girls like Bulma thus hasn't found the right person to go with his relaxed personality. I could see him getting with a girl that has the same shyness problem he has.

With how little we've seen of him in Super, he could already have one and we just don't know about it.
