No sé a donde voy. - This blog used to be my life, now I'm kinda busy building another one. I'm on hiatus, but will log as much as I can. Please enjoy and send me a message once in a while! :)
Tien it's a good choice! (Because god knows they're the brotp and hell yes they'd def be a couple) and Launch, well I've never thought about it before, sounds cool!
You wouldn't believe it but I have this terrible weak point for Yamcha/Chichi maybe not them being a couple but like after Goku died at Cell Games everybody is willing to help Chi-chi and Gohan (Specially Piccolo) and Yamcha is the second who helps more because Krillin is kinda busy starting something with 18 (But he still visit the Son frequently) anyway since Yamcha is basically alone he finds himself spendig most of his time with the Son helping in the house and training/playing with Gohan. Chi-chi appreciates the help and usually invites him for dinner and he develops a crush on her. Chi-chi notices it and start having this feelings for him but she shrug it because she thinks it's nothing. I ship them in an AU in which Goku never comes back, but maybe it's just me xD
But I think the perfect girl for Yamcha is a normal girl who doesn't know a thing about all that magic weird stuff. Yamcha deserves a good gal.
Actually, I believe Yamcha being a womanizer was thing made up by the dub for whatever reason. There was even a fairly recent interview with Toriyama (I think it was relating to the Battle of the Gods movie) that stated that Yamcha still gets very nervous around women.
In the anime (japanese, english and latin dub) Mirai Trunks tells Goku that Yamcha cheated on her mother (According to Mirai Bulma)
in the manga at chapter 335. At least in the spanish version I read he says that.
But just looked for this english one and he says this:
Non-commital as far as I know doesn’t mean “cheater”AND GOD WE ALL KNOW YAMCHA IS NON-COMMITAL: Leaving to train every now and then (for YEARS), and 17 years being with Bulma without the urge to make their relationship more serious -only until the very last moment when Goku says to Bulma that he hopes she has a nice baby- Which is the only moment when we see him thinking about tying the knot (Well except in DB when he said his dream was to get married, huh)
Then we have the opinion of Yamcha’s seiyuu /Toru furuya/ in an interview (x) Link provided by brukaoru
" Speaking of Yamcha, he was dumped by Bulma, wasn’t he?
That was a shock. I often spoke with Hiromi Tsuru-san, who plays Bulma; both she and I thought Bulma and Yamcha would end up together. And for Vegeta, of all people! It really was a shock. So when I met with Toriyama-sensei, I complained, “Why did it have to be like this?!” Then Toriyama-sensei said, “Come on; [Yamcha]‘s a cheater.” (laughs) “
Like you, KenKoba, he has the dilemma of loving women but not being good around them, so he is still wandering blindly in search of the ideal partner he won’t be nervous around. He’s even worked in a host club, but because of his nervousness, it didn’t go well and he was fired. His livelihood is mainly working together with Pu’er as a freelance bodyguard, but he occasionally goes to Tenshinhan’s to help with the farm, as well."
I’ve been thinking about this issue the last few days, and I’ve come with a new headcanon. I think that the cheating thing is canon, but now we have to think what would someone like Bulma could call “cheat”. We all know (And even Toriyama said it) that Yamcha gets really nervous around woman, so how can he actually cheat?
BUT WE ALSO HAVE SEEN Yamcha in canon oggling at gals, and even getting really worked when somebody else approachs him, So what if Bulma said he cheated on her because she catched him getting flustered while a girl was flirting with him (Or oggling at another woman) We all know Bulma tends to overreact so yeah, I think she called that “Cheating” and since Mirai Trunks only knows what Bulma told him, he just gives the information to Goku.
To resume: It’s canon that Bulma said Yamcha cheated on her. But we’ll never know if that was true, I mean eveybody knows the man has 0 women skills, so I totally doubt that someone like Yamcha would have done that (it’s so OOC)
Great post on Tenshinhan and Roshi. And yes, Yamcha most be the most trolled character, both in-story and out. I'm not sure if you ever saw Sailor Moon, but Toru Furuya (the voice of Yamcha) played Tuxedo Kamen, another character who taps asses and loses fights. Therefore, since Tuxedo Kamen married Sailor Moon, I like to pretend that was secretly Yamcha who married SM. How do you feel about this? Haha
I think this is the cutests thing ever. Now i'll think like that too!
I saw Sailor Moon when I was a child, and I'm waiting for Crystal to watch it this summer! >:D !!!
Poor tuxedo XD I remember a little about him but he seems like a "Yamcha" D: hahaha it's CUTE. I CRACKSHIP YAMCHA/USAGI. Thank you for this awesomeness! :)
So, I'm gonna publish it since I want to save this message, I hope you don't mind (If you do, tell me and i'll delete it)

I think that as much as he loved women he wasn't capable of cheating on her due being totally frozen when being around another woman. But yeah, he cheating on her is canon. I just choose to ignore that canon because I feel it out of character. (Doesn't means anyone has to agree with me)
Again, thank you so much for giving the information :)
