Everyone of the good guys is responsible for everything that happens in the Android Saga.

Except Roshi, who wasn't there to hear about the Gero stuff.

Roshi is also at fault somehow.tongue

I stand by this opinion.

The presence of Roshi's shades made everyone lose their sense of reason, for no mere mortal can resist the swagelicious allure of the great Muten Roshi's sunglasses. Goku knew not what he wrought when he stole them.

Did Chiaotzu even appear in the Android Saga in any significant capacity?

Chiaotzu (sp) is lucky to exist in any significant capacity...

And even that is pushing it.

Aside from hanging out at Roshi's (which may have been just in the anime), I don't think Chiaotzu was even in the Android-Cell Arc.

He tried to cook some napa cabbage, but that ended in disaster and heartbreak.

It's just Cabbage man.

It's power level is low. Even Farmer with a Shotgun could beat Cabbage.

Hmm...Nariama is the most enhanced person in Universe 3, but Cabba knocks him out casually in base form. How pitifully weak was Nariama pre-conversion if he's still the most enhanced despite not being nearly the actual strongest on his team

It was pointed out in that big scan of all the competitors that the robots from U3 actually need Dr. Paparoni to function. So drop him and you drop the whole team. I think Jiren might do that.

[up][up] That is such a boneheaded move.

For such a supposedly advanced universe they can't come up with good A.I.?

At least Cabba isn't as irrelevant as Tarble. tongue

He may as well be Cabba's Nobody.

He was never meant to exist.

Literally his last major contribution to the franchise was using self-destruct on Nappa. It was ineffective.

[up] Let's be fair here. Chaozu never had any major contribution to the franchise.

To quote Mistare Fusion, nobody cares about Chiaotzu.

Even Toriyama himself doesn't seem to really care about him.

He provided an Evil Counterpart to Krillin. He played an important role in Goku's fight with Tenshinhan, even if it mostly amounted to being a weapon to help the Crane Hermit cheat. He rigged the 22nd and 23rd Tenkaichi Budokais. He also did about as much against Demon King Piccolo as Roshi did. He, uh... he slowed Goku down in that one filler episode of Super?

He was really never important after fighting Krillin. Toriyama never thought any farther than Evil Counterpart to Krillin. After that, he was pretty irrelevant.

He'd have been a more interesting character if he was a Prince like in the Third DB movie. At least that would be something.
