Was Yamcha just incapable of keeping up with the other Z warriors? He seemed to be doing well when he was alone as a bandit. I know it was the beginning of Dragonball, but I think he was thrown the side because that is how humans were treated in DBZ.

Even in newer movies, you don't see anything of Yamcha.
Yamcha was never anything...ever.

His greatest achivements are:
Barely being able to fight on par with a hungry Goku
"Beating" Great Ape Goku with Puar's help
Beating Invisible man with Roshi/Bulma's help
Beating nameless random tournament guys in the preliminarys.

That's...about it.

Yamcha's best fight ever was vs Tien in 22nd budokai. In the Manga Tien beats him easily , but in Anime Yamcha fought better than in Manga. I liked that especially the dialogue between them.

Yamcha was a Z Fighter. That's hardly achieving nothing lol. He was 1 of the weaker members of the team, a team which was the strongest team in the universe.

He fought Tambourine with a broken leg, he saved Bulma's life. He did enough.

I don't understand how the same four fighters went to be trained under Master Roshi, but achieved different levels of power. I'll probably end up understanding it as I write this post.

Yamcha started training with Master Roshi much later than everyone else. For instance, Tien was training with the crane hermit at a young age too. Do you think that was the reason why he was left behind? I know Chaoitzu was a small guy so his power probably was limited. DBZ shows that the 2nd student was usually the weaker one too. However, he had telepathic powers.

I think the reason why Yamcha was left behind is because he trained at a later age. Before meeting master roshi, he was basically on his own. He probably learned from the wolves how to fight.

What is funny is that characters like Yamcha in other animes are usually popular. When I mean like Yamcha, I mean a lone, bandit with no family ties or past. It is unfortunate he ended up being the joke of DBZ.

Just made me think again....don't Krillin, Tien or Chazou have families? Lol.

Yeh Yamcha started late, before that his training couldn't be on the same level really. He had no competition in training, nobody else (teacher or partner) to drive him on except Puar who isn't much of a fighter. He had to motivate himself.

I will honestly say I feel like Yamcha does not deserve the hate he gets. I means he's a great guy who does what he can for his friends. I kind of feel sorry for him as he just dose not deserve it.

He does nothing but die in Z. At least in DB he played a role but, Z he was garbage and did nothing to help at all.

EI always thought Yamcha was fairly cook and at once he was suppose to rival Tien but that never happened. I think at times because of the dub maybe his morals at times were garbage. When it came to fighting the androids he didn't dare even share the battle field. He became irrelevant but successful so thats good. He does get cocky though, sometimes as much as vegeta but with yamcha that attitude was more annoying than Vegetas

At least he tried to do something in two sagas.

What did Yajirobe do? He was useful by pure accident and only went to the Saiyans battlefield out of guilt, didn't he?

Yajirobe should really get more "hate" per say than Yamcha, but doesn't for some reason.

Actually the Goku vs Vegeta battle came to him lol. He was just hiding there since he didn't want to fight the Saiyans and Goku and Vegeta just happened to land near him.

Yea but Yajirobe never really stuck with the gang much. He showed up to give out senzu beans once in a while. He was important in the battle vs Vegeta, cutting off his tail was a major shift in power or at least Vegetas momentum

Yamcha is cool , no hate. He is atleast a hero in his own ways , he had some moments in Budokai , wanted to fight King Piccolo,Saiyans,Frieza,Androids and Cell.

Altough his best fight was against Tien.

Every time he gets in action he is a loser. He could not even win against a saibaman. Perhaps thats why a lot of fans hate him... I myself hate pan the most.
