* AdaptationalBadass: Of the support variety. His healing powers are stronger than they are in canon, he's noted to be able to make barriers, and he was able to start the dragon balls off with 3 wishes, albeit still with the limitation of one revive only person.



*DentedIron: Slug is roughly at the level of Super Perfect Cell. He's also centuries old, and time has certainly taken its toll on him, making him WEAKER than what he was.



* NoodleIncident: Apparently, he once went along with a convoluted plan of Turles' that involved setting up a rigged card game that lasted for hours to win information. When Turles tries to do it again, he just tortures the guy for

* AdaptationalNiceGuy: They're genuinely close as comrades, and are devastated whenever one of them dies. In canon, Guldo getting killed didn't get much more than some complaints about needing new poses to make up. Here, they're genuinely angry. They also genuinely want to spare Gohan, as he genuinely thinks their song and poses are cool, noting that "praise from a youthful heart is second only to praise from Lord Frieza."

* EvenEvilHasStandards: Slug is an utterly ruthless person, and proudly declares himself evil. Whatever the hell was in King Vegeta II's black box left him utterly horrified.
* EyeScream: Slug is permanently blinded in one eye thanks to Turles throwing a highly corrosive poison at him. Even if he regenerates, the nerve itself is infected, meaning his new eye will immediately go blind again, and THAT can't regenerate without actually killing him.

to:

* AdaptationalBadass: He steps in to fight Cell of his own accord upon seeing Cell brutalizing Goku. He's also noted to be excellent at learning new techniques, even for a Saiyan. A notable example is being able to use the Special Beam Cannon during the Namek Saga, something he canonically wouldn't do until Super Hero.


Added DiffLines:

* WeakButSkilled: He's this in comparison to the other Z-fighters, alongside Chiaotzu. He makes up for it with technique and strategy.

Added DiffLines:

* AdaptationalBadass: Never was able to turn super saiyan, or really learned to fight in general in canon. Here, she's able to.
* DaddysGirl Just like in canon.


Added DiffLines:

* CantCatchUp: Tien's refusal to let this happen to him is one of the largest motivators for training.


Added DiffLines:

* CantCatchUp: Physically, Chiaotzu realizes this around the Cell Games. So he begins focusing a lot more on training his Psychic powers instead.


Added DiffLines:

* AdaptationalBadass: Between the time of the end of the Cell Games, and the start of Gohan going to high school, he's noted to have learned several spirit control techniques in the meantime.

* PapaWolf: Part of what motivates him to step up to fight Cell again, despite knowing he'd be killed effortlessly. He couldn't help but imagine if it was Videl instead of Gohan that was fighting Cell, because there was no other choice, and that INFURIATES him.

Added DiffLines:

* {{Adaptational Badass}}: Aside from being much stronger, everyone with the exception of Piccolo who trains with King Kai learn the Kaio-Ken. Tien and Yamcha even develop their own unique Power Ups.


Added DiffLines:

* {{Adaptational Badass}}: In Canon, Cell's claims of being able to perform the Kaio-Ken and Spirit Bomb are never proven true, though Cell does use the Spirit Bomb in some games. Here, he proves that yes, in fact, he can.

Added DiffLines:

* ThrowTheDogABone: After Bulma breaks up with him and marries Vegeta, Yamcha ends up in a major slump. While he does help with fighting the Androids, it's mainly because the world is in danger. However, he saves Suno's life after she and Eighter were attacked by Cell, and she ends up falling in love with him. The two end up marrying.


Added DiffLines:

* AdaptationalBadass: As he absorbs his father alongside Nail and Kami.


Added DiffLines:

* WalkingSpoiler: Hard to talk about him without revealing he's not actually Raditz and Launch's unborn son, but [[spoiler: Gohan's younger brother Goten]].


Added DiffLines:

* ArchEnemy: He sees Cell as one, because of how much pain he inflicted on 18.
* AscendedExtra: He's not absorbed by Cell at all in this continuity. Cell absorbs 18 first, and when Vegeta forces Cell to throw 18 up, Cell absorbs the BadFuture Androids instead. As such, 17 has a more major role in the Cell Saga; among other things, he fights in the Cell Games.
* BerserkButton: If you harm his sister, 17 will try to kill you, even if it's futile.
* EvilMeScaresMe: Upon learning of his BadFuture self's actions, 17 ends up [[HeelRealization mortified]]. When Gohan forces Cell to throw up Future 17, 17 kills Future 17.
* HumansAreTheRealMonsters: Because his parents were [[AbusiveParents abusive]] of him and his sister, 17 has this belief. It takes a callout from 16, some kindness shown from Krillin and [[EvilMeScaresMe learning what his]] BadFuture [[EvilMeScaresMe counterpart did]] to set him straight.
* NamedByTheAdaptation: His real last name is unknown in canon. Here, it's revealed it's Lazarus.
* ShipperOnDeck: He's this for his sister and Krillin.


Added DiffLines:

* DemotedToExtra: Due to being absorbed first and having her Infinite Energy Engine damage beforehand, which leads to her being hospitalized during the Cell Games, she has a more minor role than in canon.
* NamedByTheAdaptation: Her last name is unknown in canon. Here, it's revealed to be Lazarus.


Added DiffLines:

* AmnesiaResonance: 16 doesn't have all of Gebo's memories, only enough to know about his personality and his past in the Red Ribbon Army. He does, however, remember a song which is heavily implied to have been sung to Gebo by his mother.
* HumansAreSpecial: He believes this. He wants to be human, but cannot, so he does the next best thing: making sure 17 and 18 don't throw away their humanity.
* MoralityChain: Despite being permissive with some of 17 and 18's antics, like petty crimes, 16 will stop them from killing anyone ''except'' Goku. Since he wants to be human but cannot, he can't stand seeing 17 and 18 throw away their humanity. The chapters focusing on the BadFuture shows how horrible 17 and 18 are without 16 around.
* SparedByTheAdaptation: Due to being modified to be made out of self-replicating nanobots that harden in response to physical trauma, 16 manages to survive the Cell Games.

* KlingonScientistGetsNoRespect: Because Turles is nicer than most Saiyans, has a low power level, and is missing an arm, Bardock took the credit for the Power Ball technique because the Saiyans wouldn't use it if they knew Turles is the one who invented that technique.

Added DiffLines:

* AdaptationalNiceGuy: Vegeta is far more caring towards his family and has more respect towards the Z-Fighters than in canon.
* AdaptationalIntelligence: Unlike in canon, he doesn't grab the IdiotBall when Cell throws it to him, as he has no respect for people who steal other people's powers.


Added DiffLines:

Added DiffLines:

* AgeLift: She was born much earlier and is closer in age to Trunks rather than Pan.

* AlmightyMom: Heck, given that she's far stronger than in canon, Chi-Chi has an easier time telling other people off.


Added DiffLines:

* DeadGuyJunior: She's named after her maternal grandmother.
* LittleBitBeastly: Aside from the traits she gets as a half-Saiyan, Chika also has cow horns as a manifest of her demonic heritage. Notably is that neither Gohan nor Goten share this trait with her.


Added DiffLines:

* AdaptationalNiceGuy: Unlike in canon, Turles wasn't always evil.
* AffablyEvil: Despite the fact he is, in Bardock's words, "unhinged" and wants to TakeOverTheWorld, Turles never stopped living his brother.
* DisabledInTheAdaptation: Unlike in canon, Turles lacks one arm.
* KlingonScientistGetsNoRespect: Because Turles is nicer than most Saiyans, has a low power level, and is missing an arm, Bardock took the credit for the Power Ball technique because the Saiyans wouldn't use it if they knew Turles is the one who invented that technique.
* RelatedInTheAdaptation: It is unknown if Goku and Turles are canonically related; while they do look identical, there's no other evidence. Here, Turles is Bardock's brother, making him Goku's uncle.

* AdaptationalNiceGuy: While Goku is a NiceGuy on principle, he has a bad case of seeking challenges due to the BloodKnight nature of the Saiyans. Here, he's more capable of controlling his BloodKnight nature. He also is more open with and closer to his family and friends, which is seen when he decides to be revived after the Cell Saga despite Bulma and King Kai's beliefs that Goku is a DoomMagnet.
* AmazonChaser: He really likes the fact Chi-Chi resumed her training.
* SparedByTheAdaptation: In canon, at the end of the Cell Saga, the Z-Fighters think about getting Porunga to revive Goku, only for Goku to reject that idea. Here, because of Goku's belief that him being a DoomMagnet is rendered moot as long as his friends are by his side, the heroes go through their idea, and Goku is revived by Porunga.



*AdaptationalBadass: He steps in to fight Cell of his own accord upon seeing Cell brutalizing Goku.
* HeinzHybrid: As it turns out, his mother is half-demon, making Gohan 50% Saiyan, 25% human and 25% demon.



* AntiHero: While Bardock is one of the good guys, he also is more pragmatic than the rest of the cast.
* PragmaticHero: Shown when he convinces Goku, Raditz and Vegeta to get the fight to King Cold rather than wait him to do anything, as the first thing Cold would do was blow up Earth.



* AdaptationalBadass: While she doesn't like fighting, she still fights when her loved ones are in danger. She's a Super Saiyan like her husband and youngest son, she killed Garlic Jr. and she did the distraction that allowed Gohan to defeat Cell that was canonically done by Vegeta.
* HigherEducationIsForWomen: She wants to get a degree so she can become a teacher. By contrast, Bardock is content with being a father.



* AdaptationalHeroism: Thanks to the brief family reunion in Hell, which led to Goku asking King Kai to get his family to help him train and then asking Master Roshi to revive his family alongside him, Raditz develops into a nicer person.
* OfficialCouple: Married to Launch.
* ShoutOut: Raditz's AdaptationalHeroism is a nod to Creator/MasakoX's ''Fanfic/WhatIfRaditzTurnedGood''.



* AdaptationalBadass: She resumes training after some pushing for Gine
* AdaptationalNiceGirl: Chi-Chi is far more understanding than her canon self.
* AdaptationalSpeciesChange: Canonically, Chi-Chi is a bona fide human. Here, she's half-demon due to her mother being a cow demon.
* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: The fact she files down her horns and the loathing she associates with them is an obvious metaphor for self-harm. It can't be made more obvious than [[IdiotHero Goku]] seeing the filing as self-harm, as he pleads to her to stop hurting herself.
