Hikui Tori "Hikui Bird"*- A rare
near-extinct bird that dwells in volcanos,whose feathers
must be used to create a Basho Sen.
Pigero*- A fifteen year-old boy who defends the
orphans, living in the remains of their town which was
devastated by a tsunami, from the members of an orphange
that wants to take in the orphans and provide proper care
for them. At the end of the episode, Pigero realizes that
it would be better if the children went to the orphanage
and lets them be taken away for their own good, even
though it's a very difficult decision for him.
Bigu Gete Suta "Big Ghetti Star"*- A
planet sized space ship which is actually a
planet-devouring mass of intelligent machinery from DBZ
Movie 6. At the core of the Big Ghetti Star is Koola's
brain which survived his trip through the sun. Koola
basically has complete control of the ship and can make
thousands upon thousands of mechanical replicas of
himself. The Big Ghetti Star gets blown up due to Koola's
stupidity. He captures Gokou and Vegita and starts to
drain their energy to power the Big Ghetti Star. Being
polite, Gokou and Vegita decide to turn SSJ and give him
all the energy he wants. The Big Ghetti Star becomes
over-loaded with their energy and explodes.
Piccolo Daimaou "Piccolo the Great Demon
King"- Piccolo Daimaou is the incarnation of
evil. When the original Piccolo became God, his sould
needed to be cleansed of all evil. The evil side of him
was removed and became Piccolo Daimaou. Daimaou wreaked
havoc all over the Earth. The problem was, that he and
Kami were still the same person and if one was killed,
the other would die also. Muten Roshi's teacher, Mutaito,
stood up to Daimaou and induced the suicidal Mafuba.
Mutaito's attack succeeded in sealing Daimaou inside the
Denshi Jar in the year 461 AD, but of course he also died
as a result. However, in 753 AD, Pilaf frees Daimaou from
the Denshi Jar, and he works towards world conquest
again. He almost succedes too, but he's stopped by the
combined efforts of Tenshinhan and Gokou. Gokou propells
himself through Daimaou's chest, leaving a hole in him
the size of a beach ball. But before he dies, he spits
out an egg containing.........
Piccolo (Ma Jyunia "Demon Junior")-
Piccolo is the reincarnation of his father Piccolo
Daimaou. Many people think it's a plot hole that Kami is
still alive after Daimaou is killed. Well it's not
because Daimaou lives on in Piccolo. Piccolo retains all
of his father's memories and abilities, however, he does
have something that his father didn't. A conscience. When
Piccolo first appears during the 23rd Tenkaichi Budoukai,
he's severely brutal and seriously has it in for Gokou.
The next time he shows up to assist Gokou in defeating
Raditzu, he still has no feelings for Gokou and would
kill him just as soon as he'd kill
Raditzu.....which....uh...he does. But that's besides the
point. The point is, he still leads his own evil path
which is being obstructed by the Saiya-jin, so he's
forced to train Gokou's child to be a warrior. As the one
year of training progresses, Piccolo becomes attached to
the child, but never ONCE hints to it. (As opposed to the
English version where he practically pampers the kid).
Piccolo finally becomes reformed when he sacrafices his
life to save Gohan's. From that moment, he loses his
desire to conquer the Earth. Later on, Piccolo merges
with Nail increasing his power level over 1,000,000
allowing him to go one-on-one with Stage 2 Freeza. And in
the middle of the Android Saga, he merges with his other
half, Kami, and becomes the true original Piccolo once
again. His various mergings do not change him physically,
but internally he retains the memories of both Kami and
Nail. After merging with Kami, Piccolo becomes even more
philosophical than he normally is, and takes actions that
put him in danger for the sake of the Earth, (such as
sealing himself, Gotenks and Buu in the Room of Spirit
and Time). After fusing with Kami, Piccolo makes Kami's
Palace his home, and he always has a special place for
Gohan in his heart through all of Dragon Ball.
Bido*- A tall muscular crony of Bojack from DBZ
Movie 9. He looks like a rip-off of Android 13 from DBZ
Movie 7 with facial hair.
Binega "Vinegar"*- The largest of the
minions Garlic Jr. brings with him when he returns in the
anime. Vinegar is one of the last minions to be killed.
Pyon Tatto- A competitor in the Children's
Division of the 25th Tenkaichi Budoukai who wins his
match by default when his opponent throws a crying fit.
Pirafu "Pilaf"- The great and wonderful
Emperor Pilaf! Pilaf is a monster midget who shows up
from time to time in Dragon Ball and always stirs up
trouble of some sort. His goal is to rule the world,
(with the help of his loyal assistants Shyuu and Mai),
and he comes close to realizing his dream several times,
but his plans are ALWAYS thwarted by Gokou at the last
minute, (sometimes by mistake). He's a re-occuring
character in Dragon Ball and shows up nearly twice as
much in the anime. He weighs 71 lbs. and his height
is.......well, he doesn't wish to diclose it.
Hirudegaan "Hildegarn"*- Hildegarn is
the enormous monster in DBZ Movie 13, created by a group
of black magicians who cast a spell of negative energy on
a menacing statue and brought it to life over 1,000 years
ago on the planet Konatsu. Hildegarn normally looks
like......well actually, I can't explain it. But he's a
very large lumbering creature with a tail that can clean
out an entire city block. He is able to undergo a
metamorphosis of sorts, and emerge a more powerful
creature with the ability to fly. (His second form
resembles Lavos from Chrono Trigger to a degree).
Hildegarn is only tangible when he's attacking,
otherwise, he can instantly teleport away. Gokou defeats
him with quite possibly his most powerful physical move
in the anime story-line, Dragon Fist.
Pinfu*- A little baby who appears in the Dragon
Ball anime.
Pui Pui- The guardian of the first floor of
Babidi's ship. He comes from the panet Zun, a planet
where the gravity is ten times the gravity on Earth.
Babidi creates the arena they fight Pui Pui in to
resemble Zun, and it even has gravity ten times that of
Earth's. Babidi did this expecting it to be very
difficult for Gokou and the rest to move around, but as
we all know, they've all done training which exceeds
400g's. Vegita kills Pui Pui easily.
Puuaru- Puuaru is Yamucha's shape-shifting friend
born in the year 740 AD. He and Yamucha met in the year
747 AD. and became inseperable. They worked as a team to
rob people who came through their desert. Puuaru has the
ability to change his shape into any form and he can hold
that form as long as he likes, but his strength is not
increased and he can't turn into something that can get
used up, (like food). He shows up quite a bit in the
beginning, but he becomes less of a presence as the
series progresses.
Buujin*- The turban wearing midget member of
Bojack's team in DBZ Movie 9. Even though he's small
compared to his buddies, he's surprsingly strong and has
incredible phsycic powers.
Fuuragu "Frog"*- A humanoid frog who
competes in the Annoyoichi Budoukai. He's not very
strong, but he has a technique to expand his body to huge
proportions, thus forcing his opponent out of the ring.
Fuku Ya no Oyaji "Clothing Store Man"-
The owner of a clothing store who is gets clothes stolen
from him by Number 18 right before his eyes. He notifies
the police, and two patrol-car men are dispatched to
intercept her.
Butsumetsu no Youna Gyaru "Large Complaining
Girl"- A girl who Gokou tries to bring to Muten
Roshi to be his "pretty house maid" but she's
actually VERY large, ugly and irritable.
Puteranodon "Pteradon"- The large
Pteradon who kidnaps Buruma in the first issue of Dragon
Ball so that he can eat her. Gokou smacks it over the
head with his Nyoi Bo and kills it.
Budouji no Kanchyou "Tournament Chairman"-
The orgnizer of the 21st Tenkaichi Budoukai who is
actually a dog.
Budouji no Soryo Dai Hyou "Tournament Priest
Charter"- The old priest who lists the
competitors on the main board and charts their
progression.
Buyon- The guardian of the fifth floor of Muscle
Tower. Buyon is a blubbery creature who can repel attacks
by bouncing them back at his opponent. In order to
destroy him, Gokou punches a hole in the wall which lets
in freezing cold air from outside that freezes Buyon
solid.
Bura "Bra"- Bra is Vegita and Buruma's
second child. She's born in 778 AD. Unlike Pan who seems
tom-boyish, Bra seems pretty feminine and sticks around
her mom. She doesn't appear to be forced to fight by her
father, but she apparently loves him a lot and has a lot
of pride in him.
Buraku Hosa "Black Hosa"- Black Hosa is
Red Sousei's servant. He obeys just about everything he's
told to do, until he finds out Red's true ambition, at
which point he shoots Red and takes over the Red Ribbon
Army. He finds himself in a battle against Gokou in the
RR's top secret weapon, the Battle Jacket. Gokou kills
Black by propelling himself straight through the robotic
armor, causing it to explode.
Furappe Hakase "Dr. Frappe"*- Plot hole
city! In the anime, Dr, Frappe was said to be the creator
of Artificial Human 8. Of course as we all know it was
Dr. Gero, but Toriyama was still years and years away
from that point in the storyline, so the animators took
it upon themselves to create Dr. Frappe. Frappe is a
brilliant scientist who is forced to work for the RR Army
to create Artificial Human 8. In the anime, Murasaki
holds him hostage and threatens to kill him for making
Artificial Human 8 a failure, but of course, Gokou
rescues the day and saves Frappe, Snow and Artificial
Human 8. After that experience, Frappe removes the bomb
from Artificial Human 8's body, allowing him to safely
live with the townspeople of Jingle Village.
Furiiza "Freeza"- C'mon, if you don't
know who this guy is and you're a Dragon Ball fan, you
should probablly crawl out from under the rock you've
been hiding beneath. Freeza is of course the biggest
scumbag to walk the face of the Universe. He's basically
the head of a HUGE "company" that goes around
purging planets of life, and then selling them to the
highest bidder. Or, if he's so inclined and in the right
mood, he may just wipe out a planet for fun. Freeza sees
himself as the most powerful being in the Universe, with
no equal. However, Freeza's greatest fear was the
legendary Super Saiya-jin, and by wiping out all but 3
Saiya-jin, he figured that he would have been safe. Well,
yeah, he might have, unfortunately, he missed one. Son
Gokou. Freeza has the ability to upgrade his power 3
different times, and each time he upgrades, his body
actually changes to become suitable for his power. Once
he powers up a third time, he has the ability to charge
up to 100% energy which doesn't really change him, it
just buffs him out. Freeza is supposedly killed by Son
Gokou on Nameck, however, he's found and rebuilt by his
father, King Kold. He goes to Earth to seek revenge, and
there he's sliced and diced by Trunks and goes to Hell.
Freeza no Tei "Freeza's Scouts"- Two of
Freeza's unlucky scouts who happen upon Gohan and
Kuririn. There power levels are both a mere 1,500. I
don't think there's any need to say that they die
quickly.
Buriifu Hakase "Dr. Briefs"- Born
sometime around the year 700 AD, Dr. Briefs is the
founder of the Capsule Corporation. As it's founder, he
first invented the Hoi Poi Capsule which allows fast and
easy transportation of anything from magazines to entire
houses. The Capsule Corporation then delved into the
vehicle industry and entered the world market of auto
industry in 750 AD. at which time it held a whopping 40%
of the market. It's main competitor was the Red Ribbon
Army which held 16% of the market, but in 778 AD, the
Capsule Corp. dominated with 48% of the market to itself.
Although he's a genius, Dr. Briefs is a bit ecentric, and
a bit of a pervert, (some of his personal capsules are
filled with nothing but porn). Some of his best used
inventions were Gokou's modified space ship and Vegita's
300+g gravity ship.
Buru Shogun "Blue Shogun"- The
incredibly powerful, handsome, and very gay top ranking
officer in the Red Ribbon Army. Blue is a vicious SOB who
HATES women and is deathly afraid of mice. He proves to
be a tenacious adversary who follows Gokou through the
Pirate's cave, then tails him to the Kame House where he
ties everyone up and sets a time-bomb next to them
(they're saved by Ranchi). Finally, Gokou follows after
him and they have an aerial battle which ends with Blue
crash landing in the mountains near Pennguin Village.
Blue is eventually beat up by Arale chan and after
returning to Red Ribbon Headquarters, he's killed by Tao
Pai Pai. Blue was born in 722 AD. and joined the RR Army
in 750 AD. He's 5' 9" tall and weighs 153 lbs.
Buru Tai Taiin "Blue's Group Leader"-
One of Blue's top officers who who picks his nose and
gets executed for it.
Buruma "Bulma"- A teenager who is the
first person from outside Mount Paozu to meet Gokou. She
befriends Gokou and has him tag along as a bodyguard.
She's the daughter of Dr. Briefs and is a genius. She
invents the Dragon Radar, the Micro Band, and Fighting
Jackets, just to name a few things. In Dragon Ball and
the first half of DBZ, she's smitten by Yamucha, but she
eventually loses interest in him because he's too fickle.
She actually falls in love with Vegita because she
notices that he's a very lonely man that needs someone.
She has two children, Trunks and Bra. She was born in the
year 733 AD and her home address at the Capsule Corp. is
WST3338926K. Her ID number is SSC41453. Her bust size is
85cm.
Buruma no mama "Bulma's mom"- Buruma's
mom is a certified ditz. She is always interested in
flirting with Gokou and Vegita. In the anime she even
suggests that she'd like to go on a date with Vegita. Not
much is known about her, but in the anime she's
characterised as the steriotypical blonde air-head who
loves shopping and eating expensive cakes.
Burori "Brolly"- Brolly, in my opinion,
is God of the movie villains. He is, without a doubt, the
baddest MFer of all time. Brolly is the Legendary Super
Saiya-jin in the movie story-line only. On the day of his
birth he had a power level of 10,000, and his power would
only increase with age. He is killed by order of King
Vegita as he would be a threat to the King's power, not
to mention the fact that he would outshine Prince Vegita.
But before Brolly is killed, he undergoes a traumatic
experience. In the crib next to him is another Saiya-jin
born on the same day as him. The baby is a low-level
warrior with a pathetic power level, however, the baby
has a strong will and begins to cry and thrash about in
his crib. His tantrum is so violent that it frightens
Brolly and he cries in fear. When two Saiya-jin are born
on the same day, and one dominates the other, it's said
that the baby forced to cry will harbor an immense hatred
towards the baby who scared it. For Brolly, the child who
made him cry was named Kakarotto.
Brolly is the main villain in DBZ Movies 8, 10 and 11,
(but 11's so horrible I don't even count it). In the
movie story-line, Brolly is the strongest Saiya-jin of
all time. It's next to impossible to beat him one on one.
In my personal opinion, only someone as powerful as Super
Vegitto would have been able to take Brolly on by
theirself, and that's saying a lot. Brolly is capable of
being controlled by his father's mind-altering device,
but when he sees Gokou, a huge rage overcomes Brolly and
he breaks free of his father's device. His ultimate
purpose is simply to kill Gokou. His insane rage
eventually only enables him to say,
"Kakarotto", in Movie 10. In Movie 8 he seems
to be at least somewhat in control of his actions and he
comes out with some REALLY cool lines. For instance,
Gokou fires a huge Kame Hame Ha at Brolly from point
blank range, (literally a foot from him). When the blast
clears, Brolly is still standing un-phased, he laughs and
says, "What the Hell was that supposed to be?".
In Movie 8, Brolly is killed by Gokou after he absorbs
all of the energy from Piccolo, Trunks, Gohan and Vegita.
In Movie 10, it takes the Perfect Kame Hame Ha to beat
him, (which is Goten, Gohan and Gokou all performing a
Kame Hame Ha at once), including help from Trunks. In
Movie 11 he uh.......gets solidfied by rain........
Bun*- The leader of the ship Gohan, Kuririn and
Buruma stumble upon on their trip to Nameck. His parents
were killed in front of his eyes by Kiwi.
Punta- A large Turkish competitor in the 25th
Tenkaichi Budoukai. His opponent is Kuririn, (and
naturally when one looks at Kuririn, they would
automatically think, "Wuss"), so of course he
bad-mouths him before the match and talks about how badly
he's going to wreck him. Kuririn is so embarrassed about
having to fight such a weak competitor that he KO's him
with a single punch with his eyes closed.
Bee- Bee is the little dog who Buu finds and
befriends along with Mr. Satan. The dog is an important
part of Buu's reformation, (and the creation of Old Buu).
Buu bonds with the puppy and is playing catch with him,
when the dog is shot by two sick humans who are going
around hunting people. Buu heals the puppy, but he's
enraged by the event, and of course the morons go and
shoot Mr. Satan which causes him to flip and create Old
Buu. The dog stays with Mr. Satan during the entire Buu
fight and even saves Gohan at one point in the anime. Bee
lives with Mr. Satan and Buu after the Buu Saga.
Bekou "Vekou"*- Vekou is the character
who is a result of the failed Fusion of Gokou and Vegita
in DBZ Movie 12 due to the fact that Vegita didn't extend
his index finger. He's fat and pretty disgusting. His
only attack appears to be a barrage of farts which seem
to slip out whenever he's punched. Vekou is only around
for 30 minutes because that's the length of Fusion, but
his actions are hysterical. He wobbles like a punching
bag when Janenba whallops him, and when he trips, in one
scene, he skids for about 100 feet. Vekou
"de-Fuses" just in the nick of time before
getting speared by Janenba.
Bejiita "Vegita"- Vegita is the Prince
of the former Saiya-jin race. He was born in 732 AD and
was destined for greatest when as a child, his power
level exceeded that of even his father's. Vegita comes to
Earth, with his former bodyguard Nappa, searching for
Dragon Balls so that he can become immortal. However, as
we all know, his plan is foiled when Gokou shows starts
to show up, but he comes to the realization that the
Planet Nameck must have Dragon Balls as well, so he loses
interest in the ones on Earth and after getting
rejuvinated from his fight with Gokou, he heads over to
Nameck where he eventually meets up with his old
adversaries and is forced to team up with them. After the
Freeza saga, Vegita is basically stuck on Earth,
(although in the anime he flies around the Universe
searching for Gokou), so he learns to live with it. He
really doesn't care about the Earth, and he probablly
would destroy it, if he didn't feel the need to defend
his pride and become stronger so that he can face off
against Gokou again and beat him. Vegita is pulled into
the fights against the Androids, Cell and the like
because he feels the need to establish his superiority,
not because he has any regard for Earth. However,
eventually he reforms himself and fights for the sake of
the Earth when he envokes his suicidal attack to kill
Buu. He later admits his faults, including the fact that
Gokou has always been stronger than him, and is
ressurected when all the GOOD people who died since Buu
arrived are brought back to life. Vegita does marry
Buruma, although the exact date is unknown. It can be
assumed that it was sometime between the end of the Cell
Saga, and before the Buu Saga. He has two children,
Trunks and Bra.
Vegita Ou "King Vegita" - The ruler of
planet Vegita, and the strongest adult Saiya-jin on his
planet. King Vegita is only mentioned in the manga, but
he's seen in the movies and during the anime. There's one
scene in particular in which King Vegita gives his son
about how important pride is, and that he must never lose
it. (hence Vegita's strong sense of pride). Vegita is
killed by Freeza, in the anime, when he leads a small
revolt against the Emperor.
Bejitto "Vegitto"- Vegitto is a result
of the fusion caused by the Potara earings between Gokou
and Vegita. Vegitto is extraordinarily powerful, however,
like all Fusion characters, he's also extremely cocky and
thus plays with Buu, rather than getting right to the
point and killing him. In the anime, Vegitto ia around
for quite a few episodes, but his role in the manga is
short lived. Fusion by the Potara earings is supposed to
be forever, however, Buu absorbs Vegitto and in order to
break down his components so that he can actually gain
power from him, Buu's enzymes break down Vegitto into
Gokou and Vegita again.
Hejji, Hogu and Rii- Three girls that Oolong
kidnaps to be his servants, but instead, they ignore him
completely and become snobs living the good life in his
luxurious home.
Hebi Hime "Princess Snake"*- A giant
snake temptress who lures people into her her castle on
Serpent Path. She became the Snake Princess in 739 BC.
and the only person who she ever tried to capture was
Enma Daiou, and that was 500 years ago. When Gokou comes
along she tries to steal his heart, but his sense of
loyalty to his family and friends is of course far too
strong, so, she just turns into a giant fire-breathing
snake and tries to eat him, that's fair right?
Hoi*- The little black magician who is over 1,000
years old in DBZ Movie 13, who cons Gokou and the rest
into helping him open the Oracle containing Tapion so
that he can assemble the monster Hildegarn. He's squished
in the end of the movie by his own creation.
Bojyakku "Bojack"- The main villain from
DBZ Movie 9. I think he's pretty lame because there's
barely any plot development for the guy at all, and I
think he has like 5 lines in the whole movie. He looks
like a giant blue pirate. Gohan kills him and his minions
by becoming Super Saiya-jin 2.
Bokujyou no Oyaji "Stock Farmer"- The
cigarette smoking farmer seen in the first couple minutes
of the first episode of Dragon Ball Z. He's killed by
Raditzu in the manga,. but in the anime, he can be seen
from time to time.
Bora- The powerful Indian who lives at the base of
Karin Tower with his son Upa. Bora is just like his name
sounds. He's muscular, tall and a man of few words. He
fends off Yellow Taisa's men by himself, but he's later
speared by Tao Pai Pai and killed. When Shenron is
sumoned next, Gokou's wish is that Bora be brought back
to life. Bora is seen with his son in the last couple
episodes of Dragon Ball Z when he gives energy to Gokou
for his Genki Dama. Bora is also in the third Dragon Ball
Movie.
Bongo*- The massive Terminator-esque membe of
Gurumesu's army in Dragon Ball Movie 1. He can smash
through brick walls without feeling a thing, and will do
whatever his king tells him to do, no matter how horrible
or difficult it is. Gokou KO's him in a final battle with
him in Gurumesu's castle after an exciting aerial battle.
Maaraikoo*- A large dinsaur-like competitor in the
Annoyoichi Budoukai.
Marron- Marron is Kuririn and Number 18's
daughter. As a baby she resembles her father, but when
she gets older she looks more like her mom. Not much is
seen of her in DBZ, and she doesn't fight at all, but
it's clear that she loves both of her parents very much.
What's funny is seeing a character like Number 18
interact with her so well.
Mai- Mai is Emperor PIlaf's only competant
follower. She always works with Shuu and although she's
pretty bright, they both always manage to screw stuff up.
Why someone like her is so loyal to a nimrod like Pilaf
is beyond me.
Maitei Masuku "Mighty Mask"- Mighty Mask
is a..........masked competitor, (as you might have
guessed), in the 25th Tenkaichi Budoukai. =Unfortunately
for this poor guy, Goten and Trunks REALLY want to
compete in the Adult's Division, and since no one has
seen Mighty Mask's face, they assume his role. They lure
him into some bushes, knock him out and steal his
costume. Trunks stands on top by the eye holes, and Goten
stands on the bottom and does the walking with Trunks on
his shoulders. Even though it's a fairly awkward setup,
they do pretty well when they fight Number 18 in the
Battle Royale at the end. However, 18 figures out that
it's them, and slices their costume in half, exposing
them.
