Who is your favorite jobber? Did they ever get a moment of glory or did they stay a chump or a joke?

A jobber is wrestling slang for a guy who's allegedly a badass but loses fights, generally to make the other guy look good.

Krillin did it better

You actually cared when he got punked

something i never really got about dragonball z is why having the bad guy beat the shit out of the secondary characters is supposed to make us feel worried for goku

>>78224258
At least with some of the fights it comes down to other people besides Goku, like the Vegeta fight.
>>
>>78224216
What I liked about Krillin was that he always went in even knowing he was going to get squashed. But scared as he was, he felt he had to help his idiot best friend's idiot kid not die or to buy time for Goku to get there or whatever.

Yamcha on the other hand always went in talking about how he was going to end it quickly, no sweat.

Krillian was best in Dragon Ball, where he was legit useful, and ended up helping other people win (including even Yamcha, for fucks sake) even after he got his ass kicked, via his powers of strategy and comedic bullshit.

When was this? I don't recall any time he did anything other than get killed by Tamborine.

And wasn't it Bulma and Master Roshi who helped Yamcha win that one fight?
>>
>>78224537

So he's literally Piccolo.
>>
>>78222109
The best thing about Yamcha is that he's still like the 3rd or 4th strongest human on the entire planet.

He's already AT LEAST stronger than Recoome who was MUCH stronger than Vegeta during his first visit to earth.

Vegeta during that time was a PLANET buster.

Yamcha has the unfortunate fate of being human in a series where that race doesn't mean shit other than beeing breeding factories for other saiyan.

Put Yamcha in almost any other Anime and he's the strongest character on the show by far. It's not his fault that in his universe he has to play jester to literal gods.

>>78224586

Krillian's plan, using those two.

He managed to use comic book physics to get Yamcha a win. Probably the only real one he's had since that time a hungry Goku jobbed to him. Proof that Krillian is a tactical geinus, or at least was in Dragon Ball, when comedy was a viable power
>>
>>78224800
No, that was anime filler, it never happened.

That aside, it's fucking stupid anyways.
Yamcha, Tien and whatnot become stronger then the Ginyu Force after training on King Kai's planet for less time than Goku did? Bullshit.

And why was the Ginyu Force even there? They were Frieza's chief executive murderers.
They would have never been allowed to travel Snake Way in the first place.

So in wrestling there is always a group of guys that are supposed to make the top guys look strong. These guys usually do not win matches often and are employed basically to lose matches. Their job is to lose matches. So when they go into a match that they are going to lose they say they are doing the job. Hence the term jobbers.

Mystical Adventure Yamcha lost against fucking Bora.

Yamcha was the go to guy whenever Toei or Toriyama wanted show the viewer how awesome someone else was. So the rest were unlucky matchups, like Yamcha vs Roshi and Yamcha vs god.

Krillin was still fairly useful in Dragonball Z for a human character.

He was arguably the smartest fighter in the show and always used his cunning to pull shit off despite being outmatched.

>>78224586

Krillin did a lot of useful and effective stuff in Dragonball. He helped Yamcha win in the Fortuneteller Baba Saga, he beat Chiaotzu, he stood up to Tambourine.

And in Dragonball Z, he used Goku's spirit bomb for him, held off any and all bad guys until Goku or Vegeta were charged up enough to fuck them up and held up better than any other human character.

Krillin 100% best boy.
>>
>>78222505
It'd be stupid if you thought he was a jobber; since to be a jobber you need to be built up, and then you need to lose to establish a some new guy or something.

People never really get this or why Neji doesn't apply, but its simple, the guy never seriously lost outside of fighting Naruto.

The only thing about him is that he became fully irrelevant, but he's never lost to really establish some guy in a serious way. He was noted to be a badass, and then a few chapters later he just faded away, despite being a badass.

He's fought like three guys ever, and won against all except Naruto.
>>
>>78227620
Krillin was an OG Roshi-student after all.
>>
>>78227620
I'm not saying he's better/stronger but Tien ended up looking like a stone cold badass in the Buu saga, dancing around Buus genocide lasers or whatever it was called, and having a solid 20 seconds of being useful by deflecting an attack.

Krillin and Tien do humans a great service in a series full of overpowered madness

Krillan's a great jobber and the entire Frieza Saga and Nappa/Vegeta fights proves it. He stuck around long enough to fuck up Vegeta's back and had Krillan not gone to Namek things would have ended much differently because Gohan sure as hell wasn't reliable in a fight.

But he always fought really strong people. First he fights Master Roshi whom goes on to win the tournament and then he fights Tien(in a very entertaining battle) and he ends up winning the tournament(said what you will about how the fight ended, he was very nearly Goku's equal)
He had cool attacks, that wolf fist shit was far more unique than what a lot of people had in their arsenal. Bad writing aside, the concept of the character was good.

>This is what people who only watch DBZ think. This happened because his playboy-cheater status caused Bulma to dump him, which in itself was retconned bs.


The worst part is that Toriyama can't decide on whether he's a cheater or if he's still scared of girls. One of which is never shown, only implied(by Bulma's word, who is known to be the jealous type. Even her own mom pointed out she was just jealous Yamcha got attention from other girls), and the other stops being a plotpoint after the first arc. So simultaneously he can't commit while also being a 50 year old man who gets fired from host clubs for being too shy around girls.

I've had a sort of idea for a Dragon ball slice of life story with Krillin and Yamcha. basically with most of their friends focussed on training while they retired and are living relatively normal life. They talk about how weird it is to attempt a regular life considering all their weird circumstances(being dead for a while, traveling to another planet space, etc), and the strange feeling of drifting apart from some of their closest friends, especially Goku(with Krillin feeling somewhat hurt that due to his nature Goku spends more time with Vegeta, and seems to be closer to him that Krillin ever was). And of course, more down to earth problems like Krillin being somewhat envious of Yamcha's freewheeling lifestyle and Yamcha regretting his inability to commit and take life seriously when he sees Krillin's happy family life.

Funny enough, it's usually "Thor gets beat up and you wonder what that means for Hawkeye and Captain America". Granted, that's now how Dragon Ball does it, but this tends to happen elsewhere.
>>
>>78224338
I dunno. Those people who are always "I just know we're gonna lose!" are usually fucking downers in real life. Yamcha has an alpha attitude and that's all that matters. That's why Vegeta's having his sloppy seconds and he's probably off fucking some hotter broad
>>
>>78233447
Not too sure, I do think they have at least some Asgard powers/artifacts or somesuch. Probably should check to sure and precise.

Not sure if that would make them on Thor's level, though.

I bet he's also not getting love in DB Super.

>>78235241
Honestly he's probably better off. Bulma was absolutely horrible to him most of the time, to the point where everyone from Bulma's mother to Oolong commented about how cruel she is.

that said, I do have an idea for a comic where he deflowers a teenage Bulla(or rather teenage Bulla makes him deflower her).

He doesn't even get to have a chance to rest on his laurels as Goku's strongest antagonist for long. immediately after, King Piccolo(and Piccolo Jr.) outshines him.

Why is this bad exactly? Gohan never wanted to be his dad, despite Toriyama trying to push the series in that direction. He was meant to study, get good grades, and get a good job, unlike his dead beat retard of a dad. So he did, and consequently due to lack of training he's not as strong as he once was.

He's not being shat on for jobbing sake, he literally has an in story reason as to why he's not as strong as he used to be.

I thought their strength was in the Class 20-50 range - decent bricks but not exactly what I would call Thor level.

I do recall Wrecker's crowbar had some mystical enchantments that at least pushed Wrecker a little up the charts. And IIRC the crowbar absorbed the power of the entire team and placed it back into Wrecker (and Thunderball, another time) which *did* push the x4-powered user up into Thor's strength class.

Individually, they are cannon fodder.

an earlier handbook listed him at 40 tons, or 10 tons when his power is split between the wrecking crew. dunno if that holds true now, i kinda suspect writers forgot about the power division bit and they're each class 40-50 bricks now.
>>
>>78236131
That's the problem when you have every character on the team be a badass warrior-type. There usually aren't enough villains for each of them to get a fight scene with, so one or more of the good guys is going to do essentially nothing. Same problem as Dragon Ball Z.
>>
>>78224935
To be fair if you do include Filler, then you have to recognize Yamcha as having an incredibly high power level due to his fight in the otherworld tournament training.

If I recall..

Goku at that time is evenly matched to Pikkon, an incredibly powerful warrior.
Pikkon destroys Perfect Cell, Frieza and King Cold without a moment of effort.
Pikkon is evenly matched against Olibu, but manages to beat him in a tough fight.
Yamcha utterly trounces Olibu without effort, and another otherworld figher Gorilla, at the same time.

Thus, Yamcha manages to beat an opponent with zero effort, who would be a challenge for Pikkon, who beat Cell, Frieza and Cold with zero effort. Any other Non-Saiyan able to match this level of power?

>>78235498

in the manga it was canon that he deflowered her and that the reason Bulma abandoned him was that after losing his crippling fear of women he became a player

To be fair, it made sense as a fight. Compare his fight with Shirou to his fight with Rider.

Shirou:
-Unlimited Blade Works completely negates Gate of Babylon.
-Gil fought with no armor
-Gil went easy on him for nearly the entire fight
-Gil never drew Ea until it was too late.
-Result: Shirou still only wins because Archer and the Grail intervenes.

Rider:
-Wear armor
-Go all out immediatly
-Use Ea
-Enkidu and Ea are perfect counters for Iskandar's divinity and Ionioi Hetairoi

Considering all of their adventures and time spent training and fighting, it would be nice if Tien, Krillin, Yamcha and Chiaotzu could actually take out a serious threat using teamwork, instead of stalling until the nearest Saiyan arrives.

Could you imagine if Goku was trying to get there to save the day, and by the time he arrives, his friends are all standing around, bloody and grinning with the villain's body slung over one of their shoulders?

Not animation even, but the Rival in the Pokemon games, specifically Blue. You could never progress without beating him and that means cannonically, you never lose once to him.

>>78242054
I think this is the exact moment the whole thing goes to shit. Coupled with Naruto literally getting his shit kicked in by Neji for an entire fight and then beating him in one single punch. So disappointing the writer stuck to the bullshit Shonen tropes.
>>
>>78242139
Okay I never understood that. Is Hercule actually as shit as possible or is he actually an extremely good fighter, as good as one can be without Ki.

I always assumed he was at an MMA tier in his prime.
>>
>>78242054
You didn't miss much. You think this is bad? Eventually all of the Rookie 9 other than Naruto were turned to shit. Lee and everyone else drops off the face of the Earth (hope you like Sasuke).

Sasuke Retrieval was the last hurrah for almost all of the cast. Kishi focused on the three most irritating characters.
>>
>>78242348
Hercule is, excluding those trained in Ki, cyborgs, or monsters, legit the best fighter on the planet.
>>
>>78242348
By all accounts, Hercule's skill at mundane martial arts is at worst decent and at best excellent. Most powerlevel listings have him in the 100-200 range. Also, keep in mind, the dude got his fame by winning the World Martial Arts Tournament, which you don't do by being a weakling. The few times we do see him fight other martial artists, he more than holds his own.

The problem is that he's outclassed by pretty much any ki user, alien, cyborg, monster, or god, which comprises almost the entire cast.

>>78235470
Tien was probably the best character in DB, and he got fucked over so badly.

>Abused as a child
>Becomes a bitter opponent with a shimmer of good in him

>Fights tooth and nail to assist in fighting King Piccolo, and has a goat fight in an attempt to win
>Gets a lot of focus in his training, and is shown to work the hardest
>Pioneers some of the most used techniques
>Gets to finally fight Tao, the man who abused him, and shows how much Tien has grown

Now cut to DBZ
>No focus at all
>Launch is gone
>Dies easily and is unimportant for all of Saiyan and Frieza Sagas
>Does one good thing in Cell and goes back into the background
>Has one moment in Buu that basically becomes worthless

>Has a better redemption arc than Piccolo and Vegeta, but is left in the dust

Naruto is a gateway anime of the worst kind. It's a bad series, a clusterfuck of story and characterization that isn't very well done by any aspect, but which attempts to compensate for its weaknesses by adding in excessive shipping faggotry and DARKNESS. The normal anon can see this as the shit it is, and may enjoy it, hate it or be indifferent to it, but all the while recognizing that the series itself, regardless of their opinion, is plain bad.

However, these very aspects that try to smear over the shit of its core make it a breeding ground for aspie, unsociable underageb& faggots who engage in every kind of faggotry both online and in the real world. The superpowered characters all trying their hardest to look cool, the jutsus, peculiar, colorful clothes, the whole ninja faggotry and everything about the Naruto world fuels their escapist fantasies, while the pity-party character backgrounds, emphasis on revenge, and overall preachiness of the series make it fit just right with the mary-sueish drives of your average preteen and his sense of unwarranted self-importance towards the world. Exactly the kind of shit that makes little kiddies and underageb& retards eat this shit right the fuck up.

Naruto is basically THE series to attract the most hated anime fanbase known to /a/, which is why, regardless of individual opinions, it is the responsibility of every anon to troll the fuck out of this show and everyone who likes it, and ensure that no Naruto threads ever encourage the newfriends to show their faces here.

Aside from DB why are you guys posting anime in /co/?
Remember the rules?

>>78235714
But why, is the question? If Gohan doesn't want to fight and he's too strong to be used, why not just keep him off to the side and only have him fight when he's gotten pushed to the brink and then open a can of whoopass? Wasn't the whole point of the Mystic powerup that he didn't need to train anymore and this was him at his absolute peak due to magic?

As is, all it does is set him up to do the "oh no Gohan hasn't trained and isn't the strongest anymore, now he has to train again" plotline that the series already friggin' did in the Buu saga. You could argue that Gohan losing his power makes sense, but either way, it's still goddamn sloppy writing and it offers only something we've seen before but not as good.

The weird thing about Super is that when it's NOT rehashing the movies, it's actually pretty good. Like I quite liked the episodes before Beerus showed up and the stuff between the Battle of Gods saga and Freeza with like Krillin and Goku hanging out and stuff. But the movie saga's just feel drawn out and weird. It was a mistake to do those retellings.

Yes, but not to the quality it really deserved. Which is a damn shame because when you read it in the manga, it's a brutal fuckin fight.

Keep telling yourself that you're alpha, Yamcha.

>>78243068

So what is Gohan just being left out of the next saga entirely?
>>
>>78238542
Not even that. I think only 7 months passed between his appearance in Jason Aaron's Thor and his cameo in Squirrel Girl. And chances are a comparably short amount of time will elapse between that fight in Secret Wars people seemed so hyped about and something like a one-panel shout out in a Deadpool title.
>>
>>78242566

True, but he deserved to be a major player in Cell.

You just defined all of Dragonball. What happened to Nam? How about Upa and his dad? What about my main manbot, Android 8? Baba? How did Goku die and not even THINK of going to visit Grandpa Gohan? It's like a completely separate series, and they just have similar looking main characters.

No mention of Upa and the absence of G. Gohan really, REALLY upsets me. May as well throw all of DB in the trash Toriyama, clearly none of that shit about caring for his friends and family matters to Goku.

Only one that comes to mind at the moment is Darkseid. Too bad since I'm not much of a fan of Mr. tourture and demean. Last episode of Justice League Unlimited pissed me off, though. Seriously?

Kenpachi is such a jobber though.

He jobbed when the current badguys first invaded the soul society

He jobbed his last fight so that scientist fucker could look good. Even though that was his first fight after apparently getting his powers from killing the healer lady and actually unlocking his sword.
>>
>>78246770
Apparently Lucas always planned for him to be a cowardly weakling. Even though what Clone wars did was much cooler, it wasn't the original plan.

Though they did give an explanation for it in part 2 of the miniseries when Windu basically force crushes Grievous's chest

True, but Canadianman and Specialman were minor characters, and Wolfman was pretty much the least important of the "main" group. For Warsman, he was built up to be super skilled and threatening, which he was until after his fight with Kinnikuman, then he mostly gets treated like a chump

I'd say the saiyans were a mistake

DragonBall had a very satisfying conclusion after the 23rd world tournament arc, and the saiyan arc, while keeping thematically with the previous two arcs, kind of fucked the setting over and persisted the problem of the king piccolo arc of rediculous escalation.

Not to say it was all bad, it just would have been the best place for it to end before it started to fall apart

He's always waiting ahead on the road for you, because you're the only person who can challenge him. He gets just as far as you do in the league, but he always does it faster and he knows eventually you'll catch up to him.

Yamcha is great. The usual archetype dictates for him to be sore and turn jelly and into bad guy, but even though he clearly is weak compare to Goku and other guys, he still tries his best and is great friend.

I am watching DB for the first time btw. I am at EP 93
>>
>>78243114
Lee won neither of those fights. He's about to beat Sasuke when the fight is stopped, and he just flat out lost to Gaara. He very nearly won, but he closes his eyes out of pain for a split second while he's using his ultimate attack and Gaara switches out for a sand clone when he does. I don't think Lee won a single fight pretimeskip.

Which makes it all the more badass when they're fighting Madara. The single most powerful ninja who ever lived. With the powers of all the tailed beasts, plus the 10 tailed beast more powerful than the rest combined. The dude that fucking nobody can touch.

And Lee kicks him in half.

Literally bisects him with one kick.

Awesome.
>>
>>78242255
the latter is literally a comedy book.

That is the difference. You are just too autistic.

What about Goten? Isn't he by logic destined to be even greater warrior than Gohan? And he promised dad not to slack off. Even though Trunks was working his ass off with Vegeta and is a year older and before 24th Tournament Trunks admitted Goten is almost equal to him.
>>
>>78225862
Oh man, fucking Kenpachi. Spent literally the entire series hyping him up, getting ready to see some real shit when he gets his shikai. Then after spending like 10 chapters getting killed by Captain Mom over and over, he finally unlocks his true, ultimate power.

And then he gets one shot immediately so that Ichigo can save the day at the end of the chapter. His entire existence was a setup to job that fight. Fucking Kubo, man.
>>
>>78253365
That was the second time he showed up after his power up. The first one was that guy with reality warping powers that could make anything happen by thinking it. And that basically went

>I summon a planet sized boulder
>I'M GONNA CUT IT

>Well, I summon the concept of nothingness
>I'M GONNA CUT IT

>Well, I'll just imagine myself being as strong as you
And then the guy exploded for some reason because he couldn't comprehend how powerful Kenpachi was.
>>
>>78253287

Goten is a ticking time bomb destined to be one of the strongest fighters in the galaxy. He also hates his father so that's a plus.
>>
>>78242261
That pissed me off when Sasuke could mimic Lee's stance in such a short time.

>>78253287
>And he promised dad not to slack off.

But we know that he does. He doesn't take training seriously and never attempted to really improve himself while a child. When he's an older teen, he's more into girls than martial arts.

Not really. Wrecker with the full power of the crowbar took on a powered down Thor and won, but he decided he'd rather split the power with his bros instead.

How can jobbers be defined?

Because obviously there are jobber characters in relation to the audience and there are jobber characters in relation to the people in the setting.

I would say Saitama is the ultimate in setting jobber.

>Kills lobster monster and saves a child who's the son of rich businessman, who goes on to form the hero association, doesn't get any credit.

>Kills all the monsters when King just so happens to be nearby, doesn't get credit and the Hero Associate unanimously gives King the title the strongest man on earth.

>Kills the deepsea king and tells everyone that the only reason why he was able to kill him was because all the heroes that were defeated, weakened it enough for him to steal all the credit to allow all the wounded heroes to save face, despite the fact that none of the other heroes managed to even slow the deepsea King down.

>Kills Asura Rhino and ends the House of evolution's grand scheme to wipe out humanity and replace them with genetically engineered super furries, Genos gets all the credit as Hero association intel records Genos flattening the worthless House of evolution building, while the the actual basement where the true headquarters resided remained.

>Kills the Boros and his space shit, Tornado of terror and other S class heroes get all the credit

>Smashes apart a meteor, tanktop blackhole and tiger decides to discredit and hero crush him for producing all the resulting property damage, credit for the meteor's description is given to genos and metal knight

>Break every Hero association physical record and climbs the rank at meteoric pace, because of his notorious reputation the public naturally assumes he cheated his way to the top
>>
>>78224935
I'm not even sure how to respond to this. In the filler arc with Pikkon he one-shots perfect cell. Then Goku fights him evenly in his base form. Directly after the cell saga. You can't be serious.
>>
>>78254108
When you lose a fight to make another person look strong, you're doing the job. When you do this an inordinate amount, as though you only exist to make others look stronger, you are a jobber.

For example, when Frieza got his shit bisected by Trunks he was jobbing to put the new guy over. But Frieza isn't a jobber because he didn't do that a lot.
>>
>>78254108

>How can jobbers be defined?
