the 1st few pages : so this yamcha doesnt live in bulma 's house anymore . i guess 1 year before , bulma had fukked vegeta and then she kicked yamcha out of her house , or yamcha felt netorare so he left by himself , lol .
page 2 , panel 2 : a picture of bulma .
page 3 , panel 4 : the kanji 狼 = wolf .
page 10 , panel 2 : the kanji on the back of yamcha looks like crap , lol .
chaozu : " i dont even know how many times i have died now " . then what are his complaints ? he can live as chaozu for around 10 years -> died -> repeat at the start of the game again , in other words : he can live forever .
- what is yamcha 's birth-day ?
- who would even try to remember the birth-day of such a sh!tty character ?
so the god game is : they choose 2 kids who are the bests at dokkan battle , a kiddy video game , and have them reborned as 2 weakest sh!tty characters : yamcha and chaozu . what a funny joke , lol .
the end of this chapter has some funny pages about yamcha : https://mangadex.org/chapter/220012/1 .

mhh where is the problem? he can prevent frieza from visiting namek by not giving informations about the dragonballs, can kill gero before the cyborgs are finished and can prevent majin boo from hatching by killing babidi... just skip the bosses who are to strong 
or go straight for c18 as she is the only hot woman in this series anyway

I actually really liked the concept of comic - taking something so well known and beloved and using it as an isekai. It unfortunately falls a bit flat since it was only three chapters.
One of the big criticisms I have for dragon ball is the fact that the series has all it's characters, besides the sayans, fall completely to the way-side.
Yamcha himself is the badass rival character, until Tein shows up, who is then dethroned when Piccilo shows up, who is then replaced again by Vegeta.
A story where the MC would have to train that much harder to keep up with the unfair MC's, or using all the tricks in the book to swing things in his favour. For example - why not use the dragonballs to wish for the same training abilities as sayans?
This could also be used to correct some annoying plot issues - yeah Yamcha is dumped and Bulma shacks up with Vegeta, but given the plot to how they started dating, and how long they dated, that's an incredible contrivance they glossed over (probably just to degrade yamcha more, lol).
While the idea of a side character doing these things isn't particularly new or fresh in the isekai genre, doing it in a story that's so well known and beloved is new. Even making a 'legally distinct' version could work, since people would know exactly what you're referencing in regards to said property if handled well.
It's the fact that we know what's supposed to happen, and love the original like the MC, does that makes this feel distinct; compare this to usual akin isekais where we're just told the plot of the original at the MC's leisure for plot reasons.
Anyway, enough rambling, we'll probably never actually see an official series that's quite like this, but I enjoyed this for what it is, and the ideas it gives.

Yeah, if Yamcha was just a bit smarter he could make it a lot easier for himself.mhh where is the problem? he can prevent frieza from visiting namek by not giving informations about the dragonballs, can kill gero before the cyborgs are finished and can prevent majin boo from hatching by killing babidi... just skip the bosses who are to strong
Maybe wish himself to be a Saiyan? Sinec you cant really wish for power besides potential unlock in Super.

Another fool wasting the dragon balls for nonesense... he could have become stronger than anyone without needing to fear death or needing to hold onto bulma nor becoming the villain... so much effort rather than simply wishing from Polonga to become of Saiyan descend having self healing powers far surpassing namekian's or majins and or simply immortality... he could have lived a great life... he could gather the dragon balls and wish once in a while something useful for himself or earth and lived his dream life...
