* {{Flanderization}}: Initially he wasn't unlike Vegito from the original manga, but over the years his personality was deconstructed and exaggerated to the point he's can come accross as just a jerkass. During Goku's and Vegeta's fight, [[spoiler: while most other characters are amazed at the new form Goku and Vegeta have achieved, Vegito calls them "little bastards", and once Goku wins, Vegito's thoughts show him just being jealous, insulting and belittling them, not wanting them to catch up to him, sounding very much like Cell saga Vegeta. Most noticeably even Cell, who in the original manga was far more proudful than Vegito, doesn't insult them and is thinking about how he can achieve that form.]]

* WouldHitAGirl: Along with WouldHurtAChild; Vegito, in the past, due to his frustration at the lack of any challenge, once thought of ''threatening Pan'', his own granddaughter, to make Gohan fight him. He was more than a little disgusted with himself for the thought.

Added example(s), moved Bra to be before Gohan and Pan to match how she's got more story importance/prominence than they do.


* WorldsStrongestMan: And Vegito is ''very much'' aware of it.

* WorldsStrongestMan: In terms of raw power, possibly even ''the multiverse'''s strongest man. And Vegito is ''very much'' aware of it.it. However...
* TheWorfEffect: ...Vegito being so strong--far beyond [[TheHero Goku]]--means anyone who can beat him ''must'' be a big deal. This means Vegito ends up the go-to jobber of the story, losing to XXI, along with [[spoiler:Gast and I'K'L]], to show how formidable they are. Vegito failing to defeat [[spoiler:U4 Buu]] (despite technically being stronger) is taken as proof the latter is invincible.



[[folder:Gohan]]
!!'''Gohan'''
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/u16_gohan.PNG]]
* AdaptationalBadass: Unlike canon Gohan, this Gohan didn't stop training and still has access to his Mystic state.
* AllPowerfulBystander: He's simply a spectator in the tournament even though his strength outmatches a vast majority of the combatants. [[spoiler: He singlehandedly turns the tides of the Majin Rebellion when he gets the chance to break away from Cell.]]
* BadassBookworm: Became a scholar, but he's still a top fighter in his universe.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: He's a fundamentally decent person and generous soul while also being one of the most powerful fighters in his Universe and has a legendary capacity for UnstoppableRage when pushed too far.
* DespairEventHorizon: [[spoiler:After seeing his [[BrainwashedAndCrazy Brainwashed And]] AxCrazy surrogate sister kill his mentor/closest friend Piccolo and use looted Senzu Beans to recover from the damage he managed to inflict on her, Gohan sinks to his knees and gives up. Majin Bra then kills him.]]
* DisappointedInYou: [[spoiler:His final words before dying are to possibly lament his disappointment in Bra for willingly succumbing to Babidi's control or at least for Badidi's will being stronger than hers.]]
* TheGlassesComeOff: When Bra gets enraged over Pan's death and attempts to kill Bojack, jeopardizing their placement in the tournament and Pan's resurrection.
* GoodIsNotSoft: By chapter 68, Babidi's stunts have gotten him angry. [[spoiler:He beats Nappa and Kakarotto into ''pieces'' and disintegrates Ginyu in the first five pages]].
* HalfTheManHeUsedToBe: [[spoiler:Gets brutally bisected by Majin Bra.]]
* NiceGuy: Gohan is by far the nicest person in Universe 16 next to Pan. Which isn't actually saying much since, outside of Piccolo, Videl and Pan, almost everyone from this universe is a {{Manchild}}, with Vegito and Bra being the most standout examples.
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: By abandoning his fight with [[spoiler:Majin Cell to save U18 Videl from Nappa, it left the evil android free to murder the Universe 19 warriors, the Piccolos and the Videl from his own universe. To make matters worse, Cell proceeds to [[AllForNothing murder U18 Videl as well]].]]
* OnlySaneMan: The voice of reason among his more reckless, aggressive family members like Vegito and Bra. He's usually the one to talk sense into them and restrain them from misbehaving.
* RageBreakingPoint: [[spoiler:Gohan gets incensed near this level as he rescues U18!Videl and U18!Goten, literally tearing Majin Nappa and Majin Kakarot apart with his fists and then one-shot killing Ginyu/Cold with an energy beam. However, it truly reaches this point when Majin Cell kills both Videls. Gohan proceeds to power up and literally vaporize Majin Cell (and U18!Videl's corpse) while snarling in murderous rage.]]
* RedOniBlueOni: The Blue to Vegito's Red.
* TheSpock: The Superego of a U16 FreudianTrio that includes Vegito as the Ego and Bra as the Id. Gohan is the most calm, level-headed, and moral of the three, and always recommends the most reasonable course of action.
* TeamDad: He's an actual father to Pan, but he also acts as the parental figure to all members, due to Vegito's irresponsibility making him unable to fill the role.
* TraumaCongaLine: Oh boy, [[spoiler:the Majin Uprising turns into this for him with tragic results. In short order: Cell murders both Videls and seemingly Piccolos, apparently to spite Gohan for abandoning their fight to try and save U18!Videl from Nappa, which in turn leaves him weeping over U16!Videl's corpse and flying into a disturbing berserk rage aimed at Cell. Right after this he is confronted by Majin Bra who revels in her newfound state and gleefully goes for the kill. After a grueling fight, Gohan manages to land a major hit on Bra...only for her to murder U16!Piccolo and heal herself with a Senzu bean. Seeing his mentor figure die at the hands of his surrogate sister on top of everything else pushes Gohan past the DespairEventHorizon and leaves him open to a lethal attack from Bra.]]
* UnstoppableRage: [[spoiler:When Majin Cell gloats to him about killing both Piccolos and Videl. Cue the mother of energy beams nearly vaporising him.]]
* TranquilFury: After [[spoiler:Pan is murdered by Bojack in the ring]], Gohan is ''incensed'' by this, and although he still holds on to reason by calming down Bra and reminding her of the rules when she starts to get out of control, it's clear on a couple of occasions from the hateful DeathGlare that he shoots Bojack's way that he's ''[[PapaWolf sorely]]'' tempted to go into the ring and tear him apart with his bare hands himself.

[[folder:Pan]]
!!'''Pan'''
[[quoteright:183:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/u16_pan.png]]
* BadassAdorable: Just like any incarnation of Pan, only U16 Pan can also become a Super Saiyan. [[spoiler:Didn't help her against Bojack though]].
* BackFromTheDead:
** [[spoiler:Raichi uses her hatred to create a spirit of Pan and Bojack alongside several other competitors to fight Vegeta. Disturbingly, she and Bojack seem to be very buddy-buddy.]]
** She returns for good when the wish to revive everyone who died in the second round is activated.
* BullyingADragon: What her 'fight' with Bojack amounts to. She refuses to back down despite Gohan warning her about Bojack's cruelty and power, and all her attacks manage to do is anger Bojack into powering up, [[spoiler:which quickly results in her FamilyUnfriendlyDeath]].
* ChildProdigy: Being the child of Gohan and personally trained by Vegito will do this for you. Unlike GT Pan and U18 Pan, U16 Pan is a reasonably powerful competitor who can already become a Super Saiyan.
* CurbStompBattle: Goes up against someone who is massively stronger than her, ignoring her father's warnings about the strength difference and her opponent's brutality. [[spoiler:As soon as Bojack gets serious she's overpowered and killed in short order]].
* FamilyUnfriendlyDeath: [[spoiler:Bojack strangles her slowly before proceeding to snap her neck]].
* MoralityPet: To Bra. She's one of the only people in the comic that gets Bra to show her softer and more "human" side. When Pan is killed by Bojack, Bra's ready to murder the {{Space Pirate|s}} right there and had to be talked down by Gohan.
* NeckSnap: How she gets killed by Bojack.
* NiceGirl: One of the sweetest characters in the web comic, which is amazing given how dysfunctional her universe is thanks to [[PsychopathicManchild Vegito and Bra]]. [[spoiler:It also makes her newfound hostility towards Bra, who she once idolised, all the more serious.]]
* OlderThanSheLooks: Pan is 14 years old by the time of ''DBM'', but looks much younger. Once Asura stepped in as the main artist of the webcomic, he began to draw her as looking closer to her age.
* PintsizedPowerhouse: Though the smallest and youngest member of U16 at age fourteen, she can kick more ass than most adults.
* UnevenHybrid: Pan is a quarter Saiyan through her grandfather Goku and three-quarters human.
