Welcome, dear visitor, to Three’s the Charm, a fan site dedicated to a truly one-of-a kind character from Akira Toriyama’s shônen manga (and anime) series, Dragon Ball. His name is Tenshinhan, a man highly skilled in martial arts, a humble soldier from the planet Earth.
My name is Meghan, and I’ll be your hostess during your stay here at TTC, where it is my goal to provide extensive information as well as a fresh perspective on my absolute favorite fictional hero. Please be warned that this site is quite text-heavy, and that its written content covers a wide range of facts, personal speculation, and sporadic fangirlishness. To navigate your way around the site, click on the words above!
Onward, and enjoy! :D

saturday april 24, 2010 >>> what up, y’all?
|
|
Happy New Year! Okay, so I may be about four months late, but... it’s the thought that counts. Right?
I’ve been busy with a million and a half real life (college and work) things, so I hope you’ll forgive me for the lack of anything new. At the present, I am at a bit of a loss as to what I want to do with TTC. I don’t have the time, or the same drive, as I used to. It may be time to say goodbye, but if it’s possible I would like to try to finish things and keep the site up.
We’ll see what ends up happening, though! This is all still rather tentative as I try to decide what’s best. I just wanted to give a heads up so it wasn’t anything too out of the blue. Thank you to everyone who’s supported and visited the site. <3

sunday november 22, 2009 >>> section updates, edits
|
|
I’ve added a Site Map to the Navi section because I figured it might be useful to new (and old) visitors. You’ll notice that there is a new link under Extra: an interview with Hirotaka Suzuoki, Tenshinhan’s original voice actor. The interview was conducted for the 2004 DB anime guidebook. I will be translating it and putting it up here when I’m done! ^^ A few new Links have been added.
In addition, small tweaks and edits have been made to a few pages, namely to Stats and Speech. I really need to get cracking on rewriting and adding images to some of these sections!
|
sunday september 27, 2009 >>> new section!
|
|
The Recipe section is complete! Learn how to cook Tenshindon. I made it tonight for the very first time. I’d never made an omelette before, actually (I don’t like eggs very much), so it kind of fell apart in the pan. To my slight surprise, it came out pretty tasty. :)
I hope you’ll all try it out for yourselves!
|
saturday september 26, 2009 >>> screen captures
|
|
Two of the screen cap galleries are back up! Check out the Media section.
This isn’t the new section announcement I had planned for this update, but I have that in mind for tomorrow. Stay tuned!
|
tuesday august 18, 2009 >>> layout tweaks + content coming soon!
|
|
I’ve shifted the layout a bit and made it wider. If you see anything wrong, shoot me an email. Also, expect a new section some time in the near future! :D
|
saturday july 25, 2009 >>> galleries up
|
|
The Monochrome and Color Image Galleries are back up! No more Photobucket links! (Oh 17 year old me, what were you thinking?)
|
saturday july 12, 2009 >>> fan art + otakon!
|
|
New Fan Art by Patrick Gietmann has been added!
To everyone who’s attending Otakon this weekend: Have fun!!!
|
wednesday june 10, 2009 >>> update to stats & db kai
|
|
I guess I should mention that the Stats page has been updated to include some of the new information from the “Super Exciting Guide”. It’s finally canon that one of Tenshinhan’s favorite food is gyôza. XD
Last weekend, episode 10 of DBKai aired on Fuji TV. This one included episodes 24 and 25 from the original broadcast of DBZ and marked Tenshinhan’s first death in the series. Quite a bit was changed, taken out, or reanimated, and I’m still deciding whether I should create a page comparing the episodes. Hmmm... We’ll see!
|
monday may 11, 2009 >>> image links down
|
|
The links to the images in the gallery will be down until I can get a few things figured out. ^^; In the meantime, don’t forget to check out the Fan Fiction section!
Also, you may be wondering where the heck all these 2009 updates came from. To answer that, I’ve been having some server issues, yet I was still making updates and changes to the website without publishing them. Hence the sudden flood of updates!
|
sunday may 03, 2009 >>> overhaul of the site begins!
|
|
Don’t adjust your computer screen! You may be noticing a few small cosmetic changes around the site. ...which means just one thing: overhaul of the site!
Two new links were added! Say hello to Kung Pao! and Wayassu!
|
monday march 30, 2009 >>> new section!
|
|
Yikes! This whole “update once a year” thing is starting to become a pattern, isn’t it? ><
Anyway, this time, I’m debuting a new section: Fan Fiction! My friend Satu has kindly submitted her stories to TTC, and I’m very proud to open the new section with her works “Demonic” and “Darkness”! I hope you’ll check them out and enjoy them! :D
|
wednesday july 09, 2008 >>> missing time, a podcast, and a convention
|
|
Happy Holidays! Happy New Year! Happy Spring! Happy Summer! Did I miss anything else? ^^;;
Hey y’all, it’s been quite a while, hasn’t it? The past few months have been filled with tons of new Dragon Ball stuff... and... Man, I totally fail as a webmistress. This is a “Hey, how you doin’” sort of update, with no new content to speak of (yet). I hope you’ll all check me out on Daizenshuu EX’s Podcast episode #114, which was recorded back in February. I had a great time discussing Dragon Ball and Tenshinhan with the DaizEX crew.
Check back for some future updates and changes, and if you’re going to Otakon in a few weeks, I’ll see you there! Thank you, everyone, for your continuing support, and be well!

tuesday december 11, 2007 >>> fan art update
|
|
Holy crap, it’s an actual update! *_* And you guys thought I forgot about this thing? Well, I’ve got a small but extremely fun update tonight: Three new pieces of fan art from my friend, Warau Inu! Give her deviantART site a visit as well; there are plenty of beautiful fan arts over there! ^^
You might also notice some minor changes to the website; a few sections are gone and I’ve corrected some misspellings here and there throughout the site. Happy Holidays everyone, and see you in the near future!
|
thursday september 06, 2007 >>> section update
|
|
In keeping with sporadic updates, I’ve made some very random changes around the site. The About me section and the Submissions info have both been merged with the Contact page. It just didn’t make much sense to have separate pages for all three of those things. I’ve also gotten rid of the Cosplay section for the time being.
|
saturday august 25, 2007 >>> cover for db individual disc
|
|
So, my plans for this site include a total overhaul of written content. In the meantime, the TOEI Animation Shop has the next three cover arts for vols. 16-18 of the Dragon Ball Individual Discs. Tenshinhan’s looking mighty sexy on volume #16 thar... Enjoy!
|
saturday august 04, 2007 >>> i suck at updating
|
|
Working hard, or hardly working? ^^;; Well, as you may or may not already know: Amazon Japan has posted the covers for volumes 13-15 of the Dragon Ball Individual Discs. And yes, Tenshinhan, Tsuru-sennin, and Chaozu appear on volume #14. Oh happy day!
I’ve made some minor tweaks to the website.
