  • 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 medical support.
