EPTIt is another example of what I have been saying: It's not only an SJW perspective that makes Roshi a shit character.

A larger portion of DB was composed of Roshi bullshit. The plan for DBZ was clearly to trim similar silliness and make it more "serious" or at least focused on fighting and power progression. When you plan to spend a lot of time on Roshi kinds of things, it makes sense to have what is essentially a character that feeds on Roshi. Or at least that's how I see it. But didn't someone say Toriyama actually said he forgot about her or something? Is that just a joke or is it real? lol | ||

He straight up said that Launch was a character he just forgot. Not that she was particularly needed - but we're all sticklers on continuity so she remains necessary. | ||

Lol I could have sworn there was a throw a way line somewhere where Tien mentioned going on a date with her. I don't really care too much about her character. If they can meaningfully work her back into the story where she adds something positive great but I won't kick up any fuss if she stays out. I only brought it up because I always found it funny that the author forgot about the character. | ||
