This is great news. Sounds more hype than the Super manga.

The hero we never deserve and don't need right now. So we'll make a manga about him. Because he can take it. Because he's not our hero. He's a silent butt monkey, a punching bag. A Yamcha.

It's gonna be about Yamcha getting nuked by Saibaman
I'll might as well read this for the laughs since it's a joke, just like the DB franchise (except for the original DraganBall, that was dope) |

First I thought that we get something good with Yamcha, but then I read the rest...
Really? That kind of things should only happen in fanfictions but not in manga. |

Judging from the pictures, the general process seems to be: "Whoa, I'm Yamcha? And it's the final chapter of the Pilaf Saga, the morning after Goku goes ape?" "Awesome, Bulma makeouts!" "Oh crap, I'm gonna BE KILL BY SAIBAMEN" "...Hey, Goku? You were gonna train with the turtle guy? You know what I think I'll come with you after all your cloud thing can carry me if I hang onto you right okay thanks." And then, if it follows the template of a hundred Naruto fanfics, he desperately claws for every training advantage he can get, knowing what kinds of nasties are ahead. Probably he'll try to get help from Karin and Kami; maybe he'll bug Bulma to work on gravity tech. The final panel of chapter 1 shows him talking to Guru, so I assume he'll manage to survive long enough to get to the Dragon Ball hunt on Namek. |

yeah, Iw as told like a lot of isekai works, this guy has got meta world knowledge, it seems to eb more extreme in this case as he seems to specifically ahve dragon ball knowledge.

It is fanfiction! Officially licensed and published fanfiction. Lots of franchises have that--they even make anime based off of them, like the Rock Lee spin-off, Attack on Titan: Junior High, etc. This isn't unprecedented. Maybe they'll animate this, too. My only problem is if Yamcha ends up with Bulma, we don't get Trunks. He should look for another girlfriend for the sake of humanity! |

The template dictates that he try to keep the timeline from going to all hell (maybe have a chance to kill Vegeta, but decide Earth will need him later on), then somehow screw things up anyway. |

Step 1, get Dragon Balls
Step 2, wish to be Saiya-jin/Human hybrid Step 3, don't be a twit like Gohan Step 4, become the real hero Step 5, kill Chi-chi (it will just make everything easier) |

Looks like the manga plans to re-enact the Yamcha death scene in DBZ.

Yamcha as the hero? Oh boy. I wonder how this'll turn out or do I want to know that?
