Lol Yamacha has to be hands down the most hated character in DB/DBZ. Why is this? I just wanna hear you guys opinion on this. To me Chiaotzu is more useless than yamcha. I dont think Chiaotzu ever defeated anyone lol |

Lol As far as I've realized, Majin Buu, Fat Buu specifically was the most hated character in DBZ universe. ts him or Babidi. It probably got to do with the dub or the lines/script. Unnecessasy jokes/lame one-liners damages an already terrible voice acting. No offence. I personally enjoyed Yamcha's story-line. His face-off with Tien at early Db was cool, while he was reduced to joke against Shen. Again, his fight against Saibamen has to be one of my fav's. Probably a little more importance or relevance or screentime focused on him towards drivin the plot would've been better. |

People just like to jump on the bandwagon of hating on the human characters. Most of these people haven't even watched the original Dragonball. Yamcha really doesn't deserve the hate. People call him a weakling but the truth is he's still a god compared to anyone in real life and he even gets stronger than most of the saiyans were before they died despite the fact that he's only human. And he's no coward, I mean he went to fight the saiyans and the androids knowing he might die. And in DB he was badass travelling from dojo to dojo challenging anyone he could find and kicking all their asses. He always got the unlucky match ups in the quarter finals of the tournaments. He was brave enough to go to fight King Piccolo after he knew that one of his goons took out Krillin in one kick. He deserves lots of respect imo. |

I agree it's probably due to the dub, all my friends who are really annoyed by Kuririn & Yamucha watched the dubbed anime. I had no problem with Yamucha whatsoever watching the japanese anime & reading the manga, I even think his saiya-jin saga design is pretty kickass. |

I like Yamcha a lot. I respect him, just like said above in DB he had his time as well as the other humans. Those guys were the bomb back in those days. But he got surpassed early on and still kept trying to go along side them but really at the end he's not a fighter he's a normal human ladies' man. I can respect that. |

Yamcha didn't exactly do anything in Dragon ball either... He almost beat a hungry Goku but stopped because of Bulma, helped stop Oozaru Goku and beat Invisible man with Bulma, Roshi and Krillin's help. Humans are overrated in Dragon ball, almost none of them except Tien, Roshi and Yajirobe actually did anything, and Yajirobe was the only one of those who did anything to a villain. Dragon ball was all Goku, if you weren't Goku or the other finalist in Dragon ball you were pretty much nothing. I think Yajirobe and Roshi are the only characters to have never been a villain but were still able to give Goku a good fight, and both of them were quickly surpassed by the next saga by Goku (In Yajirobe's case it was the same saga). Don't get me wrong I respect Yamcha, he tried to save the world so that's enough to make him a hero in my eyes, along with every other human Z fighter including Chaozu. But dragon ball was not "the humans time to shine". Yamcha, Chaozu and Krillin were never useful, Tien was only "useful" when he was a villain and by the time he became a good guy he became just as useless. Yajirobe was useful agaisnt a single minor villain. Goku was always the star of the show in Dragon ball though... much more so than DBZ which gave other characters a chance, even Yajirobe and Tien got more in DBZ than they got in DB. Krillin in particular got much more... Yamcha got a little less but he never had much to begin with, and Chaozu went from having nothing to getting nothing. Anywaaaay rant aside, Yamcha doesn't get much hate really, he just gets made fun of a lot. I think Goten and Trunks are the most hated characters in DBZ from what I can tell. |

He got Bulma, was good looking, strong, clever, brave but not confident enough, and just that unlucky guy, so people like to pick on him. If he was macho he'd beat the haters up, like Tenshinhan. Yamcha was useful. He helped in the Pilaf saga a lot, and helped against the Rabbit boss guy. Anyway, Yamcha is plenty strong enough. He's just 1 of the weaker 1s in a strong team. I mean Superman>>>Green Lantern people don't really call Green Lantern useless. |

i think yamucha is hated because he is lazy, and realizes that he doesnt want to get involved. chiaotsu is just weak, and never leaves tiens side. Like a puppet of some sort, (Pinocchio) Edited by Paikuan extreme, Sep 22 2012, 04:40 PM.

I didn't even know Yamucha was even hated. I always thought he was just the kind of character nobody cared about and especially within the Post-Early Dragon Ball point (In which honestly most people probably didn't even read or watch early Dragon Ball) Yamucha never really did all that much. Hell the four things he did from the Saiyan Arc to the Buu arc was: 1. Dying (Saiyan Arc) 2.) Being dead (Freeza Arc) 3.) Almost Dying (Cell Arc) 4.) Dying again (Buu Arc) I mean as far as post- Early Dragon Ball goes, he kind of sucks, but as far as being hated, I honestly never really saw that. |

Yamcha probably wouldn't have died if he wasn't trying to show off. When Yamcha committed to training, he made great gains. He literally got 10x as strong in preparation for the saiyans and than on Otherworld, he was smacking around Olibu and another otherworld fighter. Yamcha just didn't have the drive to fight that the saiyans or Tien had. That's why in the beginning of dragonball you see him doing weird jobs like playing professional baseball. |

Yamcha did do some good though. He saved Bulma and the gang when Goku went ape and with Puar's help cut off his tail. Making it to the quarter finals in all the tournaments is still a big accomplishment imo considering the amount of guys that he had to beat. He also defeated invisible man and was actually willing to die for the sake of honour against the mummy. In a filler episode he along with krillin, tien and chiaotzu saved that village from a volcano. And there was also the scene were he held his own against tambourine for a while although that could be filler too. |

Just because he's annoying. His strength is on a joke level. |
