[QUOTE="Yoshi, post: 686, member: 23"] Yamcha has more character development than Tenshinhan for sure. Yamcha was around longer in the series longer, and he also knew his place as a Z Fighter in Dragon Ball Z seeing how he wasn't as headstrong as Tenshinhan when it came to rushing into a fight where he was outclassed. He also very likely didn't cheat on Bulma like she implied (something like that just isn't in his character), and he even took Bulma dumping him for someone like Vegeta at that point in the series like a champ, and they were in a relationship with each other for over a decade. Tenshinhan's character development ended right after the 22nd Budokai Arc. After that, he's just Goku's rival in Part I, and a supporting fighter in Z. He also doesn't have any feelings for Lunch obviously even though she's crazy, but then again so is Bulma. I do think Yamcha is always the first to lose in the battlefield, however. He loses all three Budokais during the first rounds, although he put up a good fight against Tenshinhan, and held his own against Kami at the end of the match once he knew what he was actually dealing with. He dies first in the Vegeta Saga (against the Saibaman mind you, which the other Z Fighters took care of with ease), almost dies against Gero while they were in the city and not the battlefield, and doesn't even fight in the 25th Budokai, while Krillin does and Tenshinhan has the excuse that he went on his own journey to never see the Z Fighters again. Meanwhile, Tenshinhan was always the second strongest Z Fighter after Goku during Dragon Ball. He also manhandled the Saibamen and while Nappa toyed with him, was still a legitimate challenge to him and even sacrificed himself against Nappa, who guarded himself against the Kikoho. He also upgraded the Kikoho after the Saiyan and Freeza Arcs and the attack became strong enough to hold off Cell and later strong enough to deflect Boo's ki blast against Dende and Mr Satan. When it comes to character development, Tenshinhan is the weakest link, and when it comes to being a Z Fighter, Yamcha is the weakest link. Yamcha and Tenshinhan actually have a lot of similarities as characters in the story though and you can tell they have a mutual respect for each other as fighters and as people. Krillin is the most useful of the three Earthlings both as a Z Fighter and as a Character. I actually think that should be obvious to anyone who's watched or read Dragon Ball. [/QUOTE]
