What happened to Launch?

The only appearances Launch has in DBZ is a couple filler episodes in the Saiyan Saga, and a filler appearance in the Boo Saga.

While I actually commend Toei for remembering her, why couldn't AT? :T_T:

(I understand that she wasn't important to the story, but neither was Puar, and he stuck around for the long haul.)

Who?

Launch was kind of meh to me. Her transformation thing got pretty old and I didn't really care very much about her. She'd have been useless anyway, we didn't need another person to sit around with Roshi, Oolong and Puar. Although, I'll admit that some way to phase her out would have been nice.

I like to think of the Anime's explanation as canon because it seemed pretty reasonable.

I read somewhere that Toriyama pushed for one of the final GT scenes to show Tien and Launch with kids, but it got denied by Toei. I have no idea if that's true, but it seems plausible.

And what the was the anime explanation?

It wasn't quite an explicit explanation, but we're left to assume that she was too depressed about Tien's death against Nappa that she left.

I'd say her irrelevance never served the series any purpose. She's not even a side-kick character like Puar that's to Yamcha.

Launch was pretty much my favourite character. Purple form ftw.

She just went and became an alcoholic I thought.

I remember a filler where she was living with Tenshinhan and Chiaotzu, or something like that.

Makes sense since blonde Launch was completely crazy for Ten, and purple Launch just wanted a nice place to settle down.
Every villain is the hero of their own story.
