Look, it’s undeniable fact that humans are weak in the dragon ball universe. Or maybe Saiyans and Piccolo are just strong? But Krillin still shows undeniable growth throughout the series, a consistent help even if he gives up too easily. Then there’s Tien, who spends so much time training off on his own that he misses some of the main events, but shows off more crazy techniques than even Roshi. Meanwhile, the only time Yamcha grows at all is when he’s being trained by Roshi, and the last new technique he ever uses is the Spirit Ball. Even in Super, never learned any energy techniques beyond the Kamehameha, flight, and the Spirit ball, it’s sad. So I don’t hate him, so much as he’s utterly useless, and I believe that I’m portraying him accurately. If I believed he was capable of real growth, then I would’ve showed him growing.
