Dragon Ball - That Time I got Reincarnated as Yamcha

 Continuing my homage to Toriyama-sensei, this time I will talk about a particular Spin Off manga of Dragon Ball. After DBZ Manga, Dragon Ball still got healthy amount of spin off Mangas even though not as extensive as the anime counterpart. But one does not expect an Isekai series for a Dragon Ball Spin Off which in fact turns out to be a pretty good one.

 That Time I got reincarnated as Yamcha is a short story of Highschool Fan of Dragon Ball who went through the usual Isekai procedure and somehow find himself reincarnated as Yamcha, one of the weakest member of Z Fighters. Using his extensive knowledge as Dragon Ball fans, the main protagonist took all means possible to get himself as Yamcha to his highest potential which ultimately lead up to his showdown with Nappa and Vegeta. Overall this DBZ Isekai Spin Off is a rather short one yet very amusing for while it last. If the author wishes for it, He could have make the story to cover until Majin Buu arc. In any case given the tremendous legacy of Toriyama-sensei we could expect plenty of Tributes for his work which may include another Isekai series if the demand is great enough.
