Yuudou Roboto "Guidance Robot"*- A
comical robot from DBZ Movie 6 who is only funny in the
fashion which he happily presents horrific news to his
captives. Example, "Hello hello, welcome everyone.
Okay, please settle down. Allright, now I'm going to kill
all of you and give your energy to the Big Ghetti
Star.". He's remarkably powerful for his size and
serves as the executioner and warden of the ship. He
blows up when Gokou and Vegita overload the Big Ghetti
Star.
Yuzukaa*- Gokou's ancient and feeble driving
instructor who miraculously survives Gokou's many
attempts at driving. After he encounters Gokou and
Piccolo rescue a school bus from falling off a cliff, he
tells them that people like them don't even need to know
how to drive, (which of course delights Gokou and
Piccolo).
Yoodon*- A ten year-old motocyclist who provides
the getaway bike for Gohan and the other orphans when
they steal apples from a local market. He leads Police on
a wild chase through the town's streets.
Raichi*- A mind-altering alien who tries to trap
Gohan, Kuririn and Buruma on a desolate planet by
clouding their minds, and then stealing their space ship
with the help of his alien friend Zaakuro. His plans are
halted by Gohan and Kuririn.
Raimu "Lime"*- A girl Gohan meets one
day in the forest after completing his training for the
Cell Game. He rescues her from a fast moving river and
mistakenly grabs her breasts in the process. She runs off
calling him a pervert. Later, Gohan meets her in Chazke
Village and finds out that her parents were killed by
Cell. An old bartender took her in and cared for her.
Rakasei*- One of the tiny purple twins in DBZ
Movie 3 who worked for Taurus.
Radeitsu "Raditzu"- Gokou's older
brother who is one of the four survivors of the
destruction of planet Vegita. He comes to Earth searching
for his brother to force him to come work with him and
the remaining Saiya-jin. Although the word
"work" really means destroying planets and
wiping out entire civilizations. Gokou wants no part of
it, so Raditzu steals his son as an impetus. He threatens
to kill Gohan if Gokou doesn't kill 100 Earthlings by the
next day. Gokou and Piccolo team up to take down Raditzu,
(who at the time is absurdly stronger than either of
them). During the battle, Gohan reveals his hidden power
for the first time, (well, that is if you're not counting
the movies or anime). In order to defeat Raditzu, Gokou
sacrafices himself and holds him in place while Piccolo
fires the Makkankosappo straight through both of them.
Raditzu dies, but not before gloating about how Piccolo,
and everyone on Earth will soon feel pain and suffering
when his Saiya-jin buddies arrive to utilize the Dragon
Balls. Piccolo delivers the final blow which is not seen
in the manga or anime.
Ranchi "Lunch"- Ranchi is Kame Sennin's
house maid retrieved by Gokou and Kuririn for the dirty
old man as their first task. Ranchi happily carries out
her work for Kame Sennin and never realizes that the
ancient pervert is constantly trying to grab, poke, rub
or catch of glimpse of her panties or bra. Most of the
time, his schemes are foiled when Ranchi sneezes, causing
her to change into an evil blonde haired Ranchi who robs
banks for fun, and loves shoot outs, but when she sneezes
again, she returns to her normal innocent self. Ranchi is
in Dragon Ball quite a bit and develops a crush on
Tenshinhan in early Dragon Ball Z episodes, but as with
other side characters, she eventually tapers off to
nothingness. She appears in the last episodes of DBZ and
gives her energy to Gokou for his Ultimate Genki Dama.
Ranfan- Ranfan is a competitor in the 21st
Tenkaichi Budoukai who uses the fact that she's a
"defensless" woman as a weapon. For example,
she shrieks when someone is about to hit her, causing
them to pause, and in that time, she'll deliver a
crushing punch or kick. If that technique fails, then she
strips and tries to shock or embarrass her opponent. Namu
is only able to defeat her by closing his eyes and
attacking her without, "looking upon her womanly
flesh.". Ranfan was born in 726 AD. She's 5' 5"
tall and weighs 111 lbs. Her home address is WWB131348C.
Rikuumu "Reekuumu"- Reekuumu the second
strongest member of the Ginyu Tokusentai, and also the
cockiest. He's constantly talking trash to Vegita, and
beats the hell out of him at the same time. (Which
succedes in sending Vegita off the deep end). Reekuumu
has a plethora of attacks to his credit, and most of them
are named simple stupid things like "Reekuumu
Kick!" or in the anime "Reekuumu Body
Attack!". Reekuumu is KO'ed with a single punch from
Gokou and later killed by Vegita.
Rito Sei-jin "People of planet Rito*- I'm not
totally sure but I believe the people of Rito are the
orphans that Gohan, Kuririn and Buruma meet in outer
space. All of the adults on the planet were killed by
Freeza's men and the children escaped on a large mirrored
space ship.
Rushifyaru "Lucifer"*- The villain from
DB Movie 2 who is a blood-eating demon. His goal is to
destroy the sun and create eternal darkness with the help
of an enormous laser cannon. Unfortunately, the focusing
crystal needs to be "awake" or energized in
order for it to work. He "awakens" the crystal,
(known as the Sleeping Princess), and places it in the
cannon, but the cannon's barrel is set off course by
Gokou's Kame Hame Ha, and it fires directly at Lucifer,
annihilating him.
Rushifyaru no Shitsuji "Lucifer's Servant"*-
Lucifer's Igor-esque servant who has a vast, and creepy,
knowledge of blood.
Rezun "Raisin"*- One of the two purple
twins in DBZ Movie 3 who work for Taurus. They attack
together at the same time, thus overwhelming their
opponent.
Redo Shyaku Dan "Red Shock Organization"*-
An evil crime syndication which pulls off several heists
in Satan City. Videl and the Great Saiyaman put an end to
the evil gang by defeating their leader and having him
arrested.
Redo Sousei "Red Leader"- The leader of
the infamous Red Ribbon Army. He wishes to have the
Dragon Balls to grant his greatest wish, and thousands
upon thousands of men join his army when they produce
images of world power and the such, however, in the last
episodes of the Red Ribbon Saga, Red reveals to his
servant, Black Hosa, that he was going to wish to be
taller, (the guy's a midget). Black is stunned by the
news and shoots Red in the forehead out of contempt, (if
you found out you'd been working for a guy who was
creating havoc across the world just to wish to be
taller, you'd be a bit peeved yourself).
Redo no Kau Neko Mitaina Dobutsu "Red's Animal
Cat"*- A vicious little creature who likes a
cross between a cat and a Gremlin. It sits on Red's lap
in the anime, and attacks anyone it feels needs a good
thrashing. It even bites Red himself in the hand and
draws blood.
Redo Ribbon Gun no Kapuseru Roboto "Red Ribbon
Military Capsule Robot"- A robot stored in a
Capsule that has all sorts of military actions programmed
into it. Gokou discovers one and asks it to fly a plane
for him. The Robot has a snotty attitude, and crashes the
plane just outside Jingle Village. Gokou is rescued from
the wreckage by Snow.
Remuria "Lemlia"*- The Princess of
planet Arlia who was forced to leave her husband and
marry the evil King Moai.
Rou Kaioushin "Revered Kaioushin"- The
ancient Kaioushin sealed in the Z Sword by an evil
magician 15 generations ago. Apparently, Kaioushin's live
a realllllllly long time since he was sealed in the sword
around 75 million BC. Rou Kaioushin in released from the
Z Sword when Gohan shatters it while testing it on hard
materials. Rou Kaioushin then begins his power-up spell
on Gohan, however, he needed a little impetus, (Gokou
offered him nude pictures of Buruma). Rou Kaioushin is
able to do magic because he is fused with a witch by the
power of the Potara earings.
Rou Gakushya "Revered Scholar"*- A
scholar who lives in a volcano researching the life of
the Hikui bird.
Roboto "Robot"*- Robot Number C-6 SSS
Type who Gohan finds in the underground ruins of an
ancient civilization. The robot was trapped in the ruins
for 80 years and was sleeping for eternity, until Gohan
awoke him. At first he finds Gohan annoying, but the boy
grows on him, and he rescues Gohan from being crushed in
a cave-in. The robot dies at the end of the episode, but
the whole event makes Gohan mentally and emotionally
stronger than he was before.
Wakusei Furiiza Nanba 79 no Kanseiin "Freeza
Planet Number 79 Communications Leader"- The
first person who sounds the alert that Vegita was
returning from his trip to Earth and was in need of
