The title is self-explanatory... The fact that she managed to become stronger than King Chappa (a guy Jackie Chun and Yamcha were worried about Goku facing at the 22nd Budokai, and gotten a lot stronger since) while having a guy who even weaker than 21st Budokai Muten Roshi as a teacher in the span of just 6 years is a good indicator that she could become a fairly strong Z-Warrior under the right circumstances... or at very least more relevant than Chiaotzu. Roshi and the Z-Warriors in the 23rd Budokai all agreed she was quite strong, but could she actually be accepted to receive the same special training they have and maybe having greater control over her ki learning more advanced techniques like Bukujutsu, Kamehameha, and maybe even developing her own like the Power Slugger? Also, how would her overall character be handled? Would she actually receive character development and not be pushed to the sidelines, or would she eventually just fall out of relevance completely like Yamcha? At any rate, maybe Toei would not blow that one aspect of her character out of proportion which seems to have taken a turn for the worse in Super. The ending for the latest episode came off as abusive and malicious instead of funny, and made me really feel for Goku  .Even as far as her gimmick in Extreme Butoden, it was a sign for the beginning of the end for her character. No hope for her to actually develop at all... Edited by DBZAOTA482, Oct 24 2015, 04:48 AM.

She is forgotten by the Namek Saga due to the power creep. |

She would pretty much suffer the same fate as the rest of the Human Z warriors. She would become useless after Saiyan Saga. Unless of course you put her in a different category unlike the rest of the Human Z warriors. |

She could have helped in the Saiyan arc. Imagine her fighting a Saibaiman, and perhaps winning. She probably would have been the one who saved Gohan all the time. |

One thing's for sure, she'll end up leaving Yamcha in the dust. XD |

Why does everyone always cite Yamcha as the convenient scapegoat? Chiaotzu has been even less proactive than he has in the series, yet we still get promotional material depicting him next to the others like his presence somehow yields benefit. No one ever bothers to coin a phrase along the lines of "he's as worthless as Chiaotzu" or "even weaker than Chiaotzu". Yamcha can at least admit that he's been occasionally effective like when he helped stop Oozaru Goku back during the Pilaf arc. His counterpart has literally had just one proper fight in the series, and it involved him losing due to mathematical incompetence. The truth is Yamcha, for all of his shortcomings and character defects, has still managed to make some kind of a difference, even if it's non-combat oriented like when he brought Goku home to give him Trunks' medicine. Chiaotzu can only boast that he almost completed the wish to kill King Piccolo. Sorry about the tangent. As for the original topic - for me, I think her character personality could go in one of two directions. She can either retain her matriarchal dominancy with an overbearing insistence that her family meet the expectations she's set for them. The difference from the original timeline being that she's committed to training also, and therefore has a better understanding of what it is her husband and children have encountered as self-ascribed defenders of Earth, but has decided that Gohan continue to study; perhaps she feels that by putting herself on the line, the children won't need to. In some respects she might be looked at as much more relatable character now because she's sacrificing her own life and livelihood to try and give her son an opportunity to make something of himself besides just being a huge pocket of rageful strength for other characters to exploit. The other direction is a more lax opinion on her son's training. Given the unique perspective of someone who has trained in preparation for a grave threat and been exposed to the horrors of the battlefield, Chichi might come to understand why Goku is so insistent that their son apply himself to martial arts. Well, that may not be entirely true. Part of Goku's reasoning for honing Gohan's skills would be to give himself an adequate challenge; being of Saiyan heritage with an innate thirst for combat, he could be given that enjoyable tough fight and rival through his own flesh and blood. On the other hand, I doubt Chichi would be all too concerned about self-gratification. She would try and justify the submersion of her son into that kind of lifestyle under the pretext that she's trying to make use of his naturally given strength for the protection of the planet. Chichi would certainly feel less frustration towards the Z-Warriors. Having fought alongside them herself, she might even come to respect and trust them. That should be true at least for the other human fighters. I can't predict her reaction when it comes to the appearance of the man who helped perpetrate the deaths of her comrades and actively sought to kill her own son and husband in the Saiyan arc. Chichi could very easily harbour feelings of mistrust towards Vegeta for his past crimes. The same might apply to Piccolo as well, what with him being inadvertently responsible for the death of her husband and the kidnapping of her son for the expressed purpose of indoctrinating him into the demon clan. These crimes should hit much closer to home than it would for someone like Krillin, albeit he would probably be very suspicious and upset at what Piccolo had done. Unfortunately, as others have already predicted, she would quickly fall to the wayside just like all of the other non-Saiyans. In the event that she survives the battle with the Saiyans, her role would largely remain the same as Krillin and Gohan's - hit-and-run guerrilla tactics while trying to sabotage the other two factions' activities. With her potential unlocked, I see her ending up weaker than her son. Krillin is debatable. Pretty much the rest of the arc occurs normally except there's an extra pair of hands and legs to work with. Maybe through a concerted effort they can take down Ginyu-Goku quickly without causing too much damage to his body. She may or may not be picked for execution by Frieza. The Spirit Bomb is a bit more powerful than in the original timeline. I don't know. There just doesn't seem to be all that much that Chichi's presence would change. The Saiyan arc is up in the air, sure, but Frieza and Namek saw the protagonists as being mostly outclassed by the enemy. Although I can almost assure you that Gohan would have likely gone SSJ2 the moment he sees his mother being brutally tortured by a Cell Jr. #16's speech and death wouldn't be necessary. |
