I want to run through a little scenario as to how Bulma might be able to rebuild Android 16 after the Cell Games.

Introduction: When it comes to technological prowess in the Dragon Ball universe, few characters can rival the genius of Bulma. Renowned for her ability to create groundbreaking inventions, Bulma’s skills are not limited to crafting advanced capsules or developing time-traveling devices. In a remarkable turn of events, we delve into the possibility of Bulma resurrecting Android 16, the gentle and powerful warrior who fought alongside the Z Fighters. Let us explore how Bulma’s ingenuity could bring back the beloved android.

The Setup: Following the climactic events of the Cell Games, where the original Android 16 was tragically destroyed while attempting to protect his friends, the Z Fighters and their allies were left mourning the loss of a valiant comrade. However, the brilliance of Bulma offered a glimmer of hope as she pondered the potential resurrection of Android 16.

Scenario: After some time had passed, Bulma gathered the necessary resources and embarked on her mission to rebuild Android 16. Her extensive knowledge of advanced technology and access to a vast network of scientists and engineers provided her with a solid foundation to tackle this ambitious project.

Acquiring the Blueprints: Bulma began by scouring the remnants of Dr. Gero’s laboratory, where she managed to uncover crucial blueprints and data pertaining to Android 16’s original design. This invaluable information became the cornerstone of her mission.

Analysis and Reverse Engineering: Using her exceptional intellect and expertise, Bulma meticulously analyzed the blueprints, identifying the intricate components and mechanisms that made Android 16 so unique. She worked tirelessly, reverse-engineering the technology and unraveling the secrets behind his immense power and durability.

Procuring Materials: With the blueprint analysis complete, Bulma faced the challenge of acquiring the necessary materials to reconstruct Android 16’s physical form. Drawing upon her extensive connections in the scientific community, she sourced rare metals, advanced alloys, and cutting-edge circuitry to ensure the android’s resurrection would be a success.

Building from the Ground Up: Equipped with the required materials, Bulma set about constructing Android 16’s physical body. She meticulously assembled each component, taking extra care to ensure precision and accuracy in recreating the android’s original design. Bulma’s engineering prowess and attention to detail were vital in the successful reassembly of Android 16’s body.

Powering the Android: Assembling Android 16’s physical form was just the beginning. The android’s power source needed careful consideration. Bulma designed a state-of-the-art energy core capable of harnessing and amplifying energy in ways similar to the original model. This core would not only provide Android 16 with the strength to protect his allies but also offer improved efficiency and endurance.

Reinstating the Programming: One of the most critical aspects of rebuilding Android 16 was restoring his unique programming. Bulma delved deep into the complex coding, meticulously reconstructing his personality and programming while ensuring vital modifications were made to emphasize peace and protection over combat. This transformation would allow Android 16 to evolve into a guardian of the Earth (happy bird noises).

Conclusion: This is a speculative scenario envisioning how Bulma could potentially undertake the task of reconstructing Android 16 following the conclusion of the Cell Games. As a fan of Android 16, I find the concept of witnessing his reconstruction intriguing.

I would like to explore another hypothetical scenario in the Super series, where Bulma and Dr. Hedo collaborate to rebuild Android 16. I might write it next.

    Great post, thanks for taking the time to write it up! I was gearing up to write a reply based on the new information we’ve gotten from the latest movie, Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero (awful name), but it looks like that’s what you’ve planned out to be your next post.

    In recent years, Dragon Ball has been in a weird phase of flip flopping between coming up with new ideas and re-treading old ideas. Introducing Beerus, re-treading Freeza, introducing other universes, re-treading Broly, introducing Moro, re-treading Cell. Given this and the current focus on the Red Ribbon army in Dragon Ball FighterZ, the manga, and the movies, I think it’s likely Android 16 will come back some day.

    I wouldn’t mind that, but I want the franchise to be more ambitious and to stop re-treading its past.

    You should read DBZ Multiverse if you haven’t. Not exactly what you’re talking about here, but close.
