  • Ma Junior no Tamago o Hirotsu Taroufuuhu "The married couple that found Ma Junior's egg"- An old man who finds the egg containing Ma Junior AKA Piccolo. The egg hatches later and Piccolo burns down the couple's house.

  • Majin Buu- Hoooo boy. This is going to be tough. Stick with me on this. Buu was created by the magician Bibidi at around five million BC. Buu went from planet to planet destroying life. This original Buu was very small and looked like a kid. The only problem was, he was absolutely insane and HIGHLY dangerous. Bibidi had a very hard time controlling him. Finally, Buu arrived at Kaioushin Kai, the planet of the 5 Kaioushins. He killed one at a time. First the Kaioushin of the West, and then the Kaioushin of the North. He progressed to the strongest of the group, Kaioushin of the South, but instead of killing him, he absorbed him and he became Huge Buu. He basically looks like he downed a truckload of steroids. (this Buu is only seen in the manga for an instant during his final change). After that he moves on to the Kaioushin of the East, (the one we know), but Dai Kaioushin defends him, and ends up getting absorbed himself. After absorbing Dai Kaioushin, he become what we refer to as Fat Buu. He takes on the physical characteristics of Dai Kaioushin, and also inherits Dai Kaioushin's intelligence. He becomes very child-like and obiedient who will do almost anything for food. So anyway, time passes and Buu is sealed up by Bibidi. Couple million years pass and Babidi locates the sphere his father sealed Buu in. He starts to form a very small group of soldiers and begins his quest to ressurrect Buu. Lots more years pass. Buu is finally ressurected in 774 AD. He does Babidi's bidding and goes on a rampage. Eventually, he kills Babidi, and strikes out on his own. He befriends Mr. Satan and reforms himself. All is well with the world. UNTIL, the human hunters shoot Mr. Satan and Buu's dog Bee. Buu goes nuts and the steam that shoots out of the holes from all over his body gathers together and forms Old Buu. Old Buu is a tall, lanky, dark skinned and evil version of Buu. The two face off against each other and Fat Buu gets turned into a piece of chocolate. Old Buu eats the chocolate and turns into Super Buu. Super Buu is a tall muscular light-skinned version of Buu. He's intelligent, but not very vocal. Super Buu rushes up to Kami's Tower and the whole Gotenks fight takes place, yadda yadda yadda. Skipping ahead, Buu absorbs Gotenks and Piccolo. He takes on Gotenk's physical characteristics, and due to Piccolo's brain power, he becomes a frickin rocket scientist compared to what he was before. Gohan fights Buu and gets absorbed too after Gokou shows up. After absorbing Gohan his face changes slightly, his forelock becomes HUGE and his torso is covered by Gohan's gi. In short, the world is screwed. Luckily for Gokou. Vegita is taken back to Earth by Uranai Baba at that excat moment, and he teleports over to Vegita, yadda yadda yadda, and they fuse just as about Buu is about to kill the both of them. Buu gets his posterior end served to him on a silver platter, but eventually absorbs Vegitto. After being split, Gokou and Vegita run around inside Buu's stomach and eventually happen upon their buddies encased in little capsules attached to Buu. They rip out their friends, and cause Buu to revert back to normal Super Buu form. Buu realizes that he's in trouble so he phases out and actually fights them inside of himself, until Vegita finds a gold mine, Fat Buu! Buu pleads Vegita not to rip it out, but since when does Vegita listen to pleas? After ripping out Fat Buu, Gokou and Vegita escape Buu just in time to see how royally they've %##^$@ up. By removing all of their friends and Fat Buu, Buu no longer has anything that was previously in him, and reverts back to his original child-like form popularly reffered to as Kid Buu. Kid Buu wastes no time proving that he's insane by blowing up the Earth with him on it. It's after this event that the final battle takes place on Kaioushin Kai. Kid Buu is completely destroyed by Gokou's Ultimate Genki Dama. And that's just about everything you need to know about Buu.

  • Mahou Tsukai no Kunbaba "Magical Errand Witch"- A witch who worked for the Kaioushins. One day she was admiring Rou Kaioushin's Potara earing and she took it off and tried it on. That was of course very very stupid because by doing that, she fused herself with Rou Kaioushin for eternity. But on the bright side, after fusing with her, Rou Kaioushin gained the ability to perform magical spells.

  • Maboroshi Saiya-jin "Illusion Saiya-jin"*- The pair of fake Saiya-jin that Yamucha, Kuririn, Tenshinhan and Chazou face off against in Kami's room of illusions.

  • Maron*- Kuririn's girlfriend who is a complete moron. She looks similar to Buruma and many people confuse the two, but she's very different as far as brain power. Kuririn tries proposing to her, but just as he's about to, she leaves him for a guy in a red sports car, (she's not loyal either). She shows up later during the Android Saga, but just for a little while.

  • Princess Miisa*- "Miisa likes you okyday?". Sorry, bad joke. Miisa is the daughter of King Kuresu whose kingdom is being sacked by demons every night. She's kidnapped and Gokou offers to rescue her, (which of course he does).

  • Miira kun "Little Mummy"- He may sound cute, but he sure ain't! Little Mummy is 5' 8" tall and weighs 228 lbs of pure muscle. He's third to last of Uranai Baba's fighters. Gokou KO's him.

  • Migoren*- A human-like dog competitor in the Annoyoichi Budoukai who died 7,000 years ago.

  • Mizugame no Monsuta "Freshwater Turtle Monster"*- Not exactly sure what it is, but from what I'm able to read, it lives around the water near Karin Tower.

  • Misuta Satan "Mr. Satan"- The World Champion, MR. SATAN! Mr. Satan is basically the luckiest guy in all of DBZ. Majority of the people on Earth believe that he's the strongest man in the World who defeated Cell and Buu, thus rescuing the entire human race. He becomes a huge celebrity and even has a city named after him. In reality, Mr. Satan is indeed a very strong human, but he's absolutely NOTHING compared to Gokou and Co. And he lied about defeating Cell and Buu, (obviously). When Cell was killed, there was a huge flash of light and no one could see what happened so Satan claimed victory. During the Buu saga it's a different story. He sort of saved the world. When Gokou was gathering energy, he pleaded for the people of Earth to give him their energy, but barely anyone knows Gokou and they all thought it was a trick of Buu's, so they ignored him. Mr. Satan becomes infuriated with their insubordinace and screams at them telling them that they, "You had better raise your hands because it is Mr. Satan who's fighting Buu!". And of course everyone knows Satan's voice so they all raise their hands and give up their energy, thinking that he's the one who's fighting Buu and once again, Gokou doesn't get credit for saving the World, (not that he actually wants any either). None of the Z Soldiers ever let on that they actually saved the World. They don't care for fame of any type and besides, if they ever need money all they need to do is bribe Mr. Satan. Regardless of the fact that he's definately an ego-maniac, Mr. Satan's heart really is in the right place. He loves his daughter more than anything, and would do anything for her. He befriends Fat Buu and lets him live with him. Fat Buu and Mr. Satan share the dog Bee.

  • Misuta Satan Fyan Kurabu "Mr Satan's Fan Club"*- A group of screaming young girls who try to chase Mr. Satan down for even a glimpse of him.

  • Misuta Popo "Mr. Popo"- Mr. Popo is Kami's faithful servant. He's lived a very long time and has served all previous Kami's. His tasks are basically to tend to the Palace, and to take care of Kami. He is quite strong and fast, even though he doesn't appear to be. When Gokou first arrived at Kami's Palace, Popo was far stronger than him. He trained Gokou for three years and taught him techniques that would later prove invaluable, such as the ability to sense ki.

  • Minkattsun*- The large blubbery android built by Doctor Koachin in DBZ Movie 2. Gokou defeats him by blasting through his rubber-like stomach, thus deflating him.

  • Minami no Kaiou "Kaiou of the South"- The only other Kaioushin to appear in the manga, Southern Kaiou is Northern Kaiou's rival. Of the four Kaiou's only two appear in the manga, while Gokou's trainer is one of them, Southern Kaiou is the other. The other two are only in the anime.

  • Minami no Kaioushin "Southern Kaioushin"- The strongest of the four Kaioushins, Southern Kaioushin was the second to last of his kind to be killed by Buu. When Buu absorbed this massive deity, he became Huge Buu.

  • Minoshiya*- Minoshiya is Tapion's younger brother, killed by Hildegarn in the beginning of DBZ Movie 13. Tapion later takes Buruma's Time Machine into the past, and rescues his brother, (although we don't get to see it).

  • Muusu Kazoku "The Moose Family"*- In the anime, during his training with Mr. Popo, Gokou is sent on several tasks which require him to find something, or do some sort of spiritual soul searching. One of of his tasks, Gokou meets a family living in the woods. The family is HUGE. There's two parents, nine kids, and one grandfather. All of the family memebers' names are puns on sweet foods. I haven't been able to pick them all out yet, but the parent's names are Muusu "Moose" and Ekure "Eclair". The children's names are as follows: Kuuki "Cookie". Puri "Pudding" Bisuke "Biscuit". Babaro (I don't know). Donatsu "Donuts". Chyoko "Chocolate". Zeri "Jelly". Shyuku "Sugar". Kurepa "Crepe". The grandfather's name is Korinto.

  • Muuri- Muuri is Dende and Kargo's father and the elder Nameck of his village. Just before Saichourou dies, he selects Muuri to be his successor. After the Freeza ordeal, Muuri powers up the Nameckian Dragon Balls, allowing them to return multiple people back to life with one wish.

  • Musuka*- The corrupt owner of a circus in Satan City. He steals a little Pteradon baby named Chibi from his parents and makes him a part of the circus.

  • Mutaito- Mutaito is Kame and Tsuru Sennins' teacher. He succesfully seals Piccolo Daimaou in the Denshi Jar with his Mafuba technique, but in envoking the attack, he also kills himself. In the anime, Gokou actually meets Mutaito and he's the first person in the series to teach Gokou about controlling his "ki". In fact, he's the first person to even mention the word, which soon becomes the explanation for the incredible energy techniques used throughout Dragon Ball.

  • Murasaki Souchyou "Operative Purple"- The deadly ninja of a thousand techniques who works under the command of White Shogun in Muscle Tower. Gokou's fight with Murasaki is classic. It mixes classic ninja techniques, with Gokou's kooky style of repelling them, (such as pouring boiling water down a reed Murasaki uses to breathe with under-water). Murasaki is simply punched out by Gokou in the manga, but in the anime, he gets blown up by the bomb from Artificial Human 8's body. Murasaki is 5' 7" tall and weighs 135 and 1/2 lbs.

  • Murasaki Souchyou no Kyodai "Operative Purple's Brothers"- Murasaki calls his four brothers into action to help him fight Gokou. Each is armed with different a deadly weapon.

  • Meido Roboto "Maid Robot"- A maid robot who works in the Capsule Corporation.

  • Megane Buta "Eyeglass Pig"- A near-sighted pig who acts as sort of a town crier for Penguin Village. He makes his announcements from atop a tree.

  • Mezu*- The red ogre who Gokou plays tag with in order to find the secret path back to the Serpent Path.

  • Meda Muchya*- The insane frog-like bodyguard of Slug from DBZ Movie 4, "Super Saiya-jin Son Gokou". He can make little clones of himself that distract his opponent allowing him to attack. Gokou kills him.

  • Metarikku Gunsou "Sergeant Metallic"- A large android who Gokou is forced to fight on the third floor of Muscle Tower. Metallic only goes down after Gokou blasts his head off with a Kame Hame Ha, and even after that, he keeps attacking, but eventually he shuts down.

  • Metaru Kuura "Metal Koola"*- A villain from DBZ Movie 6, Metal Koola is a creation of the Big Ghetti Star. He's amazingly powerful, and since he's entirely mechanical, he can regenerate body parts from internal wires and metal reserves. Gokou and Vegita both rush him at full power and manage to completely destroy him, only to then be faced with thousands of copies of him manufactured by the Big Ghetti Star. They are defeated by the Metal Koola's and hooked up to the core of the Big Ghetto Star, where Koola's brain resides.

  • Mera*- A beautiful demon who helps Gokou escape from the Underworld with Princess Miisa.

  • Menmen*- Jyaga's nephew who carries out messages for his uncle in DBZ Movie 11.

  • Moai Ou "King Moai"*- The evil king of Arlia who took rule of the planet by force. Vegita kills him by shooting a rock through his chest.

  • Moukeko- The burly foul-mouthed monogolian who Pan faces in the 28th Tenkaichi Budoukai. He makes fun of her and torments her in the anime. She beats him with just a slap and a kick. He's 7' 5".

  • Moumoku no Shyonen "Blind Boy"- A Blind Boy who becomes Buu's friend. Buu wonders why the boy isn't terrified of him, (it's because he can't see). Buu heals the boy's eyes so that he can see him, (Buu figures that when he does, he'll be frightened). But when the boy regains his site he thanks Buu very much and the two chat for a while. The boy asks for some milk, so Buu happily finds a human, turns him into a carton of milk and brings it back to the boy. The two chat for a little bit, and finally decides to leave. The whole scene sets you up for a gag because it's designed to make the reader think that Buu somewhat reforms himself after meeting the boy, but in the last panel of the comic, Buu happily blows up a nearby city.

  • Yaochyun*- A large man Gokou meets in the Goro Goro Mountains during his training for Mr. Popo. Gokou thinks that the man is supposed to teach him to be "Quiet Like the Sky", but the guy is actually just a nobody.

  • Yakon- A huge demonic creature with enormous blades on his arms, Yakon is one of Babidi's gaurdians. Gokou has to face Yakon in complete darkness, so in order to locate Yakon, he turns Super Saiya-jin, and locates him with the light of his ki, unfortunately, Yakon eats ki! But Gokou uses that ability against him. He pushes his ki to the max, and Yakon explodes when he absorbs too much.

  • Yajirobe- Yajirobe is a sword-wielding, vagabond monk. He first meets Gokou during the Piccolo Daimaou Saga and befriends him under an odd set of circumstances. While the two are talking, Piccolo Daimaou's child, Cymbal sneaks up on them. Both Gokou and Yajirobe are eager to fight him, but Yajirobe wins a game of paper-scissors, so he gets to fight him. He slices the monster in half. Yajirobe is far from being the coward he's portrayed as in the English version. Granted he's not always running head-first into danger, but he's not a baby. Yajirobe later rescues Gokou from his first encounter with Piccolo Daimaou and takes him to Karin to drink the Super God Water, (and get healed with a Senzu). Yajirobe takes a liking to Karin's abode, so he stays with him after the Piccolo Daimaou Saga ends. Yajirobe shows up a lot in Dragon Ball, up to the appearance of Freeza. After that, he shows up during the beginning of the Android Saga, but that's about it. Of course he makes a few more appearances in the manga, (and many more short ones in the anime), but he loses a lot of his importance, like many of the original Z Soldiers near the end of the series. Yajirobe is 5' 4" tall, (he's a little self conscious of his weight so he doesn't give it out).

  • Yamuu- Yamuu is a waste of a character. He does next to nothing, and no background info is given on him, but he does look sorta cool. Yamuu is Supopo Bitchi's assistant, and thus, a tool of Babidi who was once a normal human. He works with Supopo Bitchi to gather energy for his master at the 25th Tenkaichi Budoukai. After they steal energy from Gohan, Yamuu and Supopo Bitchi leave the tournament and deliver the energy to Babidi. Their master thanks them by making them explode.

  • Yamucha- Born in 733 AD, Yamucha began as a common thief. He stoles Capsules from wanderers who traveled through his desert with the help of his friend Puuaru. Yamucha originally wanted to make a wish with the Dragon Balls to do away with his horrible fear of women, but during the time that he shadows Buruma and the others, he learns to deal with females. He and Buruma get together after the whole ordeal with Emperor Pilaf, and become boyfriend and girlfriend. This carries on for a loooooong time. Yamucha plays a large part of most major events in Dragon Ball, and is usually around. After the 22nd Tenkaichi Budoukai, he trains with Kuririn and Tenshinhan at Kame Sennin's and becomes a member of the Turtle School of Martial Arts, as depicted on his orange gi. Yamucha is killed by a Saibai Man during the Saiya-jin Saga, and Buruma realizes how much she loves him after she loses him, so she decides to go help the other search for the Dragon Balls on Nameck. Yamucha then spends time training on Kaiou Samma's planet and is eventually tearfully reunited with Buruma later. However, his time with Buruma was short lived. Yamucha always had a problem with young girls chasing after him, and although he wasn't always interested in them, Buruma always discovered him in awkward situations which weren't his fault, so Buruma loses interest in him and heads over to Rancho del Vegita. Yamucha is not hit too hard by the turn of events, and still remains good friends with Buruma. His presence is zilch by the end of DBZ, and even when he's around, he doesn't do anything useful, this is partly due to the fact that after the Cell Saga, he loses interest in training and settles down. Yamucha is never seen with another woman. Yamucha is 6' tall and weighs 151 lbs.
