That entire ending feels like it's leading up to a joke where Yamcha just loses everything, but no, happy ending for him. And the man deserves it. Also like the whole point about Yamcha being too good at baseball that it isn't even fun to watch.

Baseball is boring to watch anyway.

This makes the whole debate Krillin and Yamcha had during the early Cell arc funnier in hindsight.

Sports in general are boring to watch.

No internal narration, no pistol sounds when punches hit, no soundtrack, bleh.

True, but even among the boredom that is sports watching baseball stands out.

Yeah and the antagonists aren't that great either.

The Tom Brady Arc in particularly lasted way too long and had too many Diabolos Ex Machinas that it started to stretch my disbelief that he was defeated in the last chapters.

I honestly thought they were gonna accuse Yamcha of cheating by doping or something because he was too good to not be using some kind of enhancement.

Also wait Yamcha didn't have any advertisements or anything? I would assume theres a period where he'd be really popular as the rising star before the hype died down.

There are lots more boring sports than that to watch, such as golf or NASCAR.

There's also the hell known as soccer and Formula 1.

[up][up]Funny thing is that from where I am from it's actually called Football/Fútbol but I called it soccer so people get what I am talking about.

Soccer? More like sucker tonguetonguetonguetongue

I like how Krillin, even if they have bickered in the past, still showed up to support Yamcha. Butt Monkeys sticking together.

No clue why Roshi was there. I guess they are teasing a short for featuring him?

Well, Yamcha was a pupil of Roshi's for a few years there. Longer than Goku was, actually.

I loved the shot of Krillin and 18 in the stands. Krillin's giving his all cheering for Yamcha, and 18 just looks like she's going to die.

Why is Dio announcing baseball games now ? Is that what he does for money in order to destroy the Joestar family ?

I admit, I laughed when I realized the joke at the end was 'yes, Yamcha does get a happy ending.'
