The two gods chose to give regular mortals Dragon Ball characters.
Since Yamcha and Chiaotzu befriended rather than finish a fight, it was a tie.

Yep. Last chapter seemed a definitive ending since

Spoiler for finale:

"Yamcha"returned to his previous life.

The final chapter sounds really disappointing. This series had so much potential.

I'd rather it not overstay its welcome.

A common flaw on most isekai series is that the protagonist becomes overpowered all too conveniently. Instead of being a story based on how the character struggles in an unfamiliar world like it's supposed to be, it becomes a self-insert power fantasy.

I knew this is going to be short but 3 chapter is too wasteful, this should finished this in one volume (10-11 chapter).
At least let the story move until cell saga because that is pivotal point for Yamcha life turnback 360 degree.

I thought it was pretty awesome to have Chiaotzu as final villain. Yeah it is a nice and fun short story.

3 chapters is still much too short. What made this concept so great is that the isekai here is a world all of us know about, and it would have been great to see various arcs revisited with whole new twists added to them. Ending this so early (and with such a bad twist) feels like a real waste. It would have totally felt more like a fanfiction than a proper manga, I'll give you that, but with such great art and concept, I wouldn't have minded. It was fun thinking about how a Dragon Ball fan could influence the story even when reincarnated as somebody as irrelevant as Yamcha.

English chapter has out and boi being Chiaotzu is suffering i am not blame that poor guy for acting twisted, he has no choice or to face an useless death.

It seems like notChaozu had to go back to the beginning of the story every time he died, yes. Which makes me wonder how the game between Champa and Beerus worked before NotYamcha was brought into it. I guess they simply bet on how long he would survive, got bored, and eventually brought a new player in.

Obviously this short story is not canon, but if it had been, that would have meant that there is an "Earth prime" in one of the twelve universes where Dragon ball is a manga.
