History Characters / DragonBallUniverse7

->'''Voiced by (Japanese):''' Creator/ShokoNakagawa (Japanese)\\

* CommutingOnABus: Since his role is pretty minor, he tends to appear for very few moments during the series.

* {{Bishonen}}: Perhaps the most standard one in the entire franchise. Creator/AkiraToriyama [[WordOfGod said]] that he was specifically created to be a "good lookin' feller" in order to [[CastFullOfPrettyBoys keep up with modern tastes]].

->'''Voiced by:''' Issei Futamata (Vomic)

A professor who formerly researched time travel on a remote island, after losing the other researchers, including his wife, in an accident, has lived as a hermit alone on the island.

* GrumpyOldMan: At least initially, before getting caught up in Jaco's adventure.
* TheHermit: He lives alone on a deserted island.
* IntrovertedCatPerson: Has a lot of them living on his island.
* TheLostLenore: His wife died in a lab accident.
* PerpetualFrowner: Never seen smiling.
* ThemeNaming: Both "oomori" and "toku-" refer to an extra-sized helping of food. Oomori himself doesn't seem to eat more than you'd expect him to, though.

!!'''Tamagoro Katayude (固茹 玉吾郎, ''Katayude Tamagorou'')'''
[[quoteright:165:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/a3ef58474dada015dc4fab6820b8d6f4.png]]
->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/TakuyaSato (Vomic)

A government official sent to evict Omori from his island.

* AmbiguouslyGay: He's a fastidious dresser who cooks and cleans, loves fine cuisine, and decorates his apartment with teddy bears ("Tie-bears", specifically) and kitsch. He also may or may not be wearing eyeliner and mascara.
* HeelFaceTurn: Only does so after all the action is over, though. Specifically, it's prompted when he finds out that Tights is a StuntDouble aboard a spaceship that he watched fail so spectacularly, but the way he says it implies that he's been losing patience with the government for a while.
* MediumAwareness: He realizes to a certain extent that time travels in panels.
* ObstructiveBureaucrat: Is this to Omori.
* ThemeNaming: "Kata-Yude Tamago" is literally "Hard-Boiled Egg". (While he is a police officer, he's most certainly ''not'' a "hard-boiled" one.)

* AlliterativeName: '''A'''n '''A'''zuki.
* GirlishPigtails: She has two pigtails, bound by large ribbons.
* IdolSinger: Basically all there is to her character.
* ThemeNaming: Azuki are the red beans that are processed into red bean paste. The name of that paste, Anko, is often shortened to "An" ("anpan", for example).

[[folder:Tights's Family (SPOILERS!)]]
!!'''Dr. Brief (ブリーフ博士, ''Buriifu-hakase''), Bulma's Mom''' (ブルマのママ, ''Buruma no Mama''), and '''Bulma (ブルマ, ''Buruma'')'''

[[folder:The Target (SPOILERS!)]]

[[folder:Galactic King]]
!!'''Galactic King (銀河王, ''Gingaō'')'''
[[quoteright:221:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/galactic_king.jpeg]]
->Voiced by Ken Uo (Japanese), Bob Reed (English), Daniel Lacy (Latin American Spanish)

The Galactic King is the king of the Milky Way Galaxy. He joins Jaco and the crew for the tournament between Universe 6 and Universe 7.

* AccentAdaptation: He's given a German accent in the English dub.
* AscendedExtra: He actually first appears during the last chapter of ''Jaco The Space Patrolman'', ''Dragon Ball Minus'', where he gives Jaco the order to kill Goku who is going to Earth. Luckily, Jaco failed at that. In ''Super'', he is given more of a role during the Tournament between Universe 6 and 7 in helping Goku have some idea of what the powers of Hit, from universe 6, are.
* BizarreAlienBiology: At least one of his many tentacles serves as a genital, though they are indistinguishable (this is true of real-world octopuses as well).
* CloudCuckooLander: As can be gathered from the other tropes listed here, the Galactic King has a rather odd sense of priorities, but his status as a CloudCuckooLander is fully solidified in the “Galactic Patrol Prisoner” arc, where his induction ceremony for Goku and Vegeta into the Patrol lists off a number of arbitrary codes of conduct, such as a rule that members of the Patrol may not use their police credentials to pick up girls.
* EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep: He's only referred to by title, not name.
* ExposedExtraterrestrials: Wears no clothing except a crown, though as an octopus this doesn't exactly reveal anything.
* TheGoodKing: He runs a galactic police force that helps to keep peace throughout the Milky Way galaxy.
* MistakenForRomance: Mistaken by Bulma for being Jaco's girlfriend.
* MrExposition: Is the first one to figure out how Hit's technique works, and explains its limitations to Goku.
* OctopoidAliens: He resembles a large green octopus wearing a crown.
* PoliceAreUseless: Combining everything we know about them from ''Manga/JacoTheGalacticPatrolman'', ''Manga/DragonBallSuper'', and official statements from Creator/AkiraToriyama, it seems that the Galactic Patrol (including the King himself, who's said to be their strongest member) are completely useless against beings anywhere near as strong as Frieza's first form (who had a power level over half a million during a time where one-hundred thousand was considered outstanding), only patrol the Milky Way, don't care for backwater planets like Earth, and spend most of their time chasing people like Burpman who commit misdemeanor crimes. Subverted with the Galactic Patrol Arc where it's revealed their prisoners include serious, incredibly powerful threats.
* RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething: Creator/AkiraToriyama has stated that instead of just giving orders to the Galactic Patrol, the king directly aids them, even going so far as to help them combat evil-doers. Unfortunately, even with the king and every single other member teaming up, their combined might is ''still'' not enough to manage anything against Frieza even in his weakest form.

[[AC:Introduced in Dragon Ball Super]]
[[folder:Merus]]
!!'''Merus (メルス; ''Merusu'')'''
[[quoteright:200:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/merusu_artwork_toyotaro.png]]

TheAce of the Galactic Patrol. Introduced in the Galactic Patrol Prisoner Saga.

* TheAce: A captain that is in charge of 140 sectors of the Seventh Universe.
* AlienNonInterferenceClause: [[spoiler:As an Angel, he has been blatantly toeing the line with this trope. His activities in Universe 7 come dangerously close to breaking their rule against direct interference in mortal affairs. In the Galactic Patrol, he conceals his true power at all times and only uses weapons in battle as a loophole, but as soon as the Grand Minister catches wind of his plans to fight Moro directly, Whis is sent to reel Merus back in.]]
* AllForNothing: Narrowly avoided. [[spoiler:Merus disabling Moro's crystals to let Goku easily finish him off as Ultra Instinct did him no good as Goku decided to heal Moro with a Senzu Bean to try to spare him. Worse, Moro's arm ended up copying Merus's powers, and due to mutation of not being a god, caused him to combine with the Earth and put the planet and possibly the entire galaxy at risk of extermination. Afterward however, thanks to some help from Vegeta, and the combined energy of the Dragon Team plus the god-potential energy of Uub (with Grand Supreme Kai coaching him through Buu), Goku does actually finish the job.]]
* AmbiguouslyHuman: Ambiguously mortal, in this case. There are many hints throughout the Galactic Patrol arc that Merus is much more than he seems. He has no ki signature, is extremely fast, and he has knowledge of Ultra Instinct. Plus, his complexion and hair are distinctly Angelic or Kai-like. [[spoiler:He is an Angel apprentice sent by the Grand Minister to learn from Universe 7. After he breaks Angel Law and is erased, he's resurrected as a mortal.]]
* AnnoyingYoungerSibling: [[spoiler:Whis mournfully calls Merus a troublesome little brother after his apparent HeroicSacrifice, since he refused to obey the Grand Minister's instructions that were put in place for his own safety.]]
* BackFromTheDead: [[spoiler:At Shin's request, the Grand Minister resurrects Merus after he broke the AlienNonInterferenceClause -- albeit as a mortal and with his angelic powers gone.]]
* BroughtDownToNormal: [[spoiler:After being resurrected by the Grand Minister, he's made mortal and loses his angelic powers.]]
* CessationOfExistence: [[spoiler:True to what had been said, Angels are not above the AlienNonInterferenceClause that binds them to neutrality, and so when Merus decides to use just a bit of his power to destroy Moro's crystals, it was a decision that would end up costing him his very existence. He's resurrected, but is turned into a normal human lacking his angelic powers.]]
* CombatPragmatist: He takes down Goku and Vegeta with an anaesthesia gun instead of facing them head-on. [[spoiler:Turns out he can only use weapons, otherwise using his real power would cost him his existence due to breaking Angel law.]]
* TheDreaded: Among the criminal populace of the galaxy, Merus is universally feared for being the most competent and decorated Galactic Patrolman.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: His straight-laced, efficient and pragmatic personality is established in his first appearance, in which he harmlessly ambushes Goku and Vegeta with an anesthesia gun instead of trying to attack them head-on or announce his intentions.
* {{Foil}}: To Zamasu. A higher being that studied humans from closer and eventually grew closer to them and liked them. Unlike Zamasu who grew angry and resentful to humans for being flawed, Merus liked them for their imperfections and their senses of Justice.
* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler:Knowing that going into battle with Moro will lead to him erased for breaking the AlienNonInterferenceClause, he chooses to fight Moro anyway, believing that Moro is too dangerous to be allowed to continue. He taps into a small amount of his full power during the final battle with Moro to destroy his PowerCopying crystals gained from Seven-Three before fading away.]]
* IAmNotLeftHanded: Revelations about the extent to Merus's true power are gradually drip-fed to us over the course of his debut arc. Initially, he appears to be a highly competent and speedy but not exceptionally strong Patrolman, but his feats include briefly binding Moro, holding his own against Super Saiyan 3 Goku and later revealing that he does in fact know of Ultra Instinct. His ki is also noted by Vegeta to be unreadable. [[spoiler:Turns out he is an Angel, meaning he is strong by default. However, because he has taken too much of a bias during the Moro conflict, Whis returns him home to Zeno's world. If Merus ever revealed his full power, he would have been erased for breaking the Angelic law of non-interference.]]
* InformedFlaw: Invoked and PlayedForLaughs. At one point, Jaco backhandedly mocks Merus for being "snobby, pretentious and heavy-handed", but there's no indication that any of this is true.
* MartialArtsStaff: Merus wields one during his training with Goku, making him somewhat resemble Whis. [[spoiler:It's a hint of his origin.]]
* MeaningfulName: [[spoiler: Merus in Latin means undiluted pure wine, forshadowing his reveal as an Angel in disguise.]]
** MeaningfulRename: [[spoiler: After being revived as a mortal, he goes by the name of Merus Ikanoichiyabosshi, similar to Jaco's surname.]]
* MySpeciesDothProtestTooMuch: [[spoiler:The Angels are created to dutifully serve and mentor the Gods of Destruction in each universe. Outside of brief instances, they do not interfere with mortal affairs as the penalty for doing so is immediate [[CessationOfExistence erasure]]. Most of them are cold, aloof and detached from lesser beings' problems as a result. Merus is the biggest exception, since he found the plight of mortals too much to bear and decided to shed his divine rank in order to become a galactic peacekeeper.]]
* MysteriousPast: Merus carries an aura of intrigue. Despite claiming to be nothing more than an average Patrolman, both Goku and Vegeta are able to deduce that he is hiding his true power. [[spoiler:His origin is eventually revealed; he is an Angel apprentice sent by the Grand Minister to learn about mortals, until he rebelled against his restrictions to fight on their behalf.]]
* ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight: [[spoiler:As an Angel, he is prohibited from directly interfering with mortals. Despite risking his own life in doing so (Angels are deleted from existence if they break the rules), Merus plans to take the fight directly to Moro's evil army alongside Goku and the others. The Grand Minister has Whis recall Merus from Universe 7 to avoid this, but Merus decides in the end to aid the heroes, showing up just as Moro is on the verge of victory. Sadly, this ends up costing him his existence. He ''is'' brought back, but loses his angelic status and power.]]
* TheStoic: Compared to the majority of Galactic Patrol members, Merus takes his job ''very'' seriously and lacks any silly quirks.
* SuperSpeed: Established to have SuperSpeed, and is fast enough to take down (base) Goku and Vegeta by surprise. He's so fast that he can dodge attacks from Super Saiyan 3 Goku with minimal effort.
* WhiteSheep: [[spoiler:By breaking neutrality, Merus proves himself to be the only Angel to ultimately not value his own life over countless others.]]
* {{Zeerust}}: His design evokes a retro sci-fi chic, what with his high-trimmed bowl haircut, '80s tracksuit uniform, and his array of tacky gadgets.

[[folder:Irico]]
!!Irico
[[quoteright:147:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/irico_4.png]]

A diminutive member of the Galactic Patrol with a knack for piloting.

* AcePilot: Most often seen flying Galactic Patrol vessels, and he ferries Vegeta to planet Yardrat.
* AmbiguouslyRelated: There is no confirmed source that states Irico is a Tech-Tech alien. He does however appear to be from the same race as [[Characters/DragonBallOthers Gure]], [[Characters/DragonBallSaiyans Tarble's wife]].
* TheGenericGuy: Irico doesn't have Jaco's incompetence or quirky traits, or Merus [[TheAce competence]] and mystery, he is just an unremarkable patroller.
* MistakenIdentity: The Yardrats somehow keep mistaking Irico for Vegeta when they arrive on their planet.
* MythologyGag: He looks like a member of the Tech-Tech species, which debuted in Akira Toriyama's self-parody manga ''Nekomajin'' and have appeared many times in his other works.
* RudeHeroNiceSidekick: Just as anyone would be when put opposite to Vegeta, Irico acts as the Saiyan Prince's more diplomatic sidekick during their adventure to Yardrat.

!!!'''Present in both mediums'''
[[folder:Monaka]]
!!'''Monaka (モナカ)'''
[[quoteright:186:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/monaka_dbs.png]]
->'''Voiced by (Japanese):''' Creator/MasamiKikuchi\\
'''Voiced by (English):''' Creator/DamanMills\\
'''Voiced by (Latin American Spanish):''' Roberto Mendiola

Monaka is a deliveryman whom the God of Destruction Beerus uses as motivation for Goku and Vegeta to get stronger. Beerus claims that he is the strongest fighter of Universe 7. During the Champa saga, he was chosen as the last member to fight in the tournament.

* AccidentalHero:
** At the conclusion of the Potaufeu Saga, [[spoiler: Monaka accidentally steps on the core of Comméson just as he wakes up from his coma, which acts as a catalyst for Copy-Vegeta's defeat and gives Goku the opportunity to finish him off.]]
** At the end of the Champa Arc, [[spoiler:while his punch didn't even phase Hit, it gave Hit the opportunity to throw the fight out of respect for Goku. Because of that, he technically won the tournament for Universe 7]].
* TheAce: Beerus claims that Monaka is this, citing him as the strongest mortal in Universe 7 who gave him a much better fight than Goku. He tells members of his team to do rock-paper-scissors to chose who will fight in what order, but says that Monaka will go last since is the 'ace'. [[TheDreaded Beerus also seems to be afraid of him]], going out of his way to keep Monaka happy. [[spoiler: It's revealed by Whis that Monaka isn't that strong and is actually an amateur fighter who Beerus builds up to [[MotivationalLie motivate]] Goku and Vegeta into becoming stronger]].
* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: According to Beerus, Goku is the second strongest opponent he's fought. This guy is [[spoiler:just an amateur brought in to motivate Goku and Vegeta to get stronger]].
* AsskickingLeadsToLeadership: Monaka is officially the team captain for U7 during the Champa Saga since he is the strongest fighter in U7 according to Beerus. [[spoiler: It's all a big MotivationalLie. He's actually quite weak and faints at the sight of fighting]].
* BerserkButton: Beerus claims that anyone who interrupts his concentration whether friend or foe gets annihilated in an instant, even going as far as saying he destroyed a whole planet because of this. [[spoiler: This was just a lie to prevent Goku from finding out that Monaka is actually really weak]].
* BewareTheSillyOnes: He's Krillin's size with giant nipples and wears a leotard, yet Whis claims even Beerus would have a hard time stopping him if he chooses to go all out. It's saying something when [[TheDreaded Beerus]], [[PhysicalGod God of Destruction]], tries not to anger Monaka, and beats Goku when the latter tries to test Monaka's strength by punching him. [[spoiler: Subverted when it's revealed that he isn't strong and is a coward who faints at anything that surprises him.]]
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Whis describes the people of Planet Wagashi, Monaka's home planet, as this. They are kind and docile, but their true power is such that even Beerus could have a hard time with them. [[spoiler: Whis is lying, they are probably just as weak as him.]]
* {{Courier}}: This is his occupation. [[spoiler:Beerus puts a huge pile of gold in his truck as thanks for being the MotivationalLie for Goku]]. Chi-Chi is impressed that Monaka works on top of being very powerful. That is before [[spoiler: she learns, along with everyone else minus Goku, that Monaka isn't strong]].
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: Goku tried testing his "power" by sucker-punching him in the face (which resulted in Monaka not evading the attack along with showing signs of physical damage and putting Monaka close to tears). Piccolo states that he can't even sense his power level as well. Additionally, according to Whis, Monaka mentally "fainted after seeing Goku's Kamehameha in the first battle", but with all of this, Beerus still states that he's the team ace and will incinerate anyone, friend or foe, who interrupts him while "meditating". [[spoiler:This ends up all being false, since Monaka is actually a weakling who faints at anything that remotely surprises him.]]
* DullSurprise: When it isn't related to fighting, this tends to be Monaka's default expression towards everything.
* {{Foil}}: Is one to Dr. Rota from Universe 6. Both are [[JokeCharacter Joke Characters]] who oddly stand out for their respective universes [[spoiler:and aren't really that powerful]]. However, while Dr. Rota was able to at least grapple with Prum, Monaka is [[spoiler:barely able to lay a dent on anybody]]. Plus, both are somewhat [[AccidentalHero Accidental Heroes]] in a way, while Monaka [[spoiler:has accidentally won the Universe 6 & 7 Tournament (due to Hit's disinterest in the prize)]], Dr. Rota indirectly helped Vegeta beat Prum, as he was able to NoSell almost all Ki attacks. Plus, Monaka showed up for the first tournament and didn't show up for the second one, while Dr. Rota showed up for the second one and not the first one. Lastly, both characters are voiced by the same voice actor.
* EdibleThemeNaming: Besides its in-universe meaning, his name is also the name of a Japanese dessert similar to a sandwich cookie.
* {{Gonk}}: Just ''look'' at him!
* JokeCharacter: [[spoiler: He's not as strong as is claimed,]] and he's only there just as a way to motivate Goku and Vegeta to become stronger and to win the tournament. He may or may not be strong in his own right, unlike most examples of this trope.
* KarmicJackpot: [[spoiler:He's actually a JokeCharacter, and him going against Hit was akin to an ant fighting a steamroller. That said, he still fought, gave Hit a chance to throw the fight, and, to reward his services, Beerus pays him a literal truckload of treasure]].
* LovableCoward: While he's very nervous and rather cowardly during the tournament and when Goku expresses his desire to fight him, it's very hard to blame him for being so nervous considering that [[spoiler: he's just a delivery man with no powers who just got dragged in a game between gods and who finds himself forced to face PhysicalGods infinitely stronger than him]].
* MeaningfulName: His name translates to "He of Great Ponta (He with the big nipples)."
* MotivationalLie: His true purpose. Beerus [[spoiler:made up the story about him being the strongest fighter he ever met]] to motivate Goku and Vegeta into becoming stronger and better able to win the tournament. [[spoiler:The lie ends up backfiring since Buu fails the written test, leaving Beerus with only three capable fighters.]] Later, [[spoiler:Beerus in a]] Monaka [[spoiler:costume]] fights Goku and hilariously, [[spoiler:when Goku sees the Monaka costume and Monaka himself, he believes]] that Monaka has splitting abilities similar to Majin Buu.
* MrExposition: Brings up the fact to see the Unnamed Planet and the surrounding Super Dragon Balls from a 3D perspective, [[spoiler:allowing Whis to figure out that the planet was indeed the final Super Dragon Ball]].
* NervousWreck: He's so nervous he passes out by the sight of Goku's Kamehameha and Vegeta's Super Saiyan Blue aura. When it was his turn fighting Hit, he nervously walked into the arena (and dropped on the ground as well). He [[spoiler:only won against Hit because Hit was returning the favor of Goku withdrawing ... if Hit didn't find Goku that much of a worthy opponent, Monaka would have most probably been utterly obliterated. Monaka also gets very nervous when Beerus tells him that he still wants to use him to motivate Goku further after the tournament]]. Additionally, [[spoiler:Monaka had a panic attack when Goku was dragging him to go spar with him]].
* NiceGuy: He's a pretty good sport about Goku sucker punching him in the face for no reason. In the manga, Whis states that he is polite and gentle in general. When it doesn't involve fighting strong opponents [[spoiler:that he knows he would lose against]], Monaka is pretty nice to the other characters.
* NoodleIncident: As of right now, we don't know what caused Beerus to have trouble with Monaka. [[spoiler:Although this is probably just a story Beerus made up to motivate Goku]].
* OvershadowedByAwesome: [[spoiler: He's a lot weaker than Beerus claims]], but he still manages to take a punch from Saiyan Beyond God Goku to the face without flinching, which has to count for something. Krillin was sent flying across the countryside and broke his leg taking such a punch, and Goku was ''weaker'' since that was before he trained with Whis. However, Trunks elbowed Monaka on accident and he ended up crying, so his power tier compared to the lower tiered Z-Fighters is unknown.
* PintSizedPowerhouse: Only goes up to Goku's waist, but Beerus claims that he gave a much better fight than Goku ever did, [[spoiler: which isn't true. Beerus only made that up to motivate Goku and Vegeta. But that he managed to tank a punch from a PhysicalGod with Nothing other than a few scrapes shows that while he may not be the strongest, he's not the weakest either.]]
* PeoplePuppets: After Goku [[spoiler: tears up the Monaka costume during his sparring match with Beerus, Vegeta and Piccolo rushes to fix it. When Goku asked what is going on]], Vegeta and Piccolo [[spoiler: pretend]] that Monaka is controlling their bodies.
* PutOnABus: Monaka hasn't been seen since the defeat of Copy Vegeta. He was mentioned during the Universal Survival Saga, but due to the nature of the tournament and the consequences, Beerus quickly stated that he was sick.
* QuakingWithFear: He was so terrified of fighting Hit that his teeth chattered and his knees trembled.
* TheQuietOne: Around strong fighters, he usually just stares into blankness and sits/stands there. This is actually because he's passed out ... however, he talks normally whenever it doesn't involve [[spoiler:Beerus's lie]].
* RunningGag: He always faints when something even slightly surprising happens.
* ShooOutTheClowns: Guess who isn't a fighter for the Universal Survival Saga? This is probably in fear of the consequences, [[spoiler:as the Universe is in stake as opposed to Earth]]. He and Jaco didn't make an appearance or mention in the Future Trunks Saga either, which was far darker than the series has been so far.
* SleepsWithBothEyesOpen: Whenever he passes out, he keeps both of his eyes wide open.
* SpaceTrucker: Well more like space delivery man, but close enough.
* WalkingSpoiler: After his buildup through the Champa Saga, [[spoiler:it's safe to assume that most of the spoilers on this page are about how weak Monaka is.]]
* WealthyEverAfter: [[spoiler:At the end of the Champa Arc, as a reward for his services, Beerus pays him a small fortune worth of treasure.]]
* WorldsStrongestMan: Beerus claims that he is the strongest mortal in Universe 7 since he gave him a better fight than Super Saiyan God Goku and forces him to fight last at the tournament since he is TheAce. [[spoiler: This is a lie Beerus created to give Goku and Vegeta motivation to keep growing stronger and to win him the tournament. To keep Goku from finding out the truth, Beerus dressed in a Monaka costume and sparred with Goku]].

An omniscient being. He knows everything in the universe.

* AmbiguouslyBi: Though he obviously prefers women, he'll answer one question for a man if they kiss his cheek.
* TheBusCameBack: He returns in the Granolah arc after a fairly long absence, [[UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom where he once again provides vital information to a group of villains.]]
* ChekhovsGunman: In his initial appearance, he gives Bulma information on the Super Dragon Balls and isn't mentioned again. [[spoiler: In the Future Trunks Saga, Zamasu breaks into his temple to gain information about the Super Dragon Balls and Goku.]] He also appears in the Granolah Arc, [[spoiler:giving the Heeters information on the Dragon Balls.]]
* HasAType: Turns out he has a thing for feisty women like Bulma and Macki, which is why he'll answer more than one question for them if they kiss him.
* JackassGenie: Counts any rhetorical question as one of the questions he will answer, will only make one appointment every seven years, [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking and insults Bulma's age]]. [[spoiler:Zamasu won't take any of that though, and forcefully barges in his temple.]]
* LivingMacGuffin: The Heeters seek him out so they can pry him for information. They convince him to answer ten questions, including one regarding the weaknesses of the Saiyans.
* MeaningfulName: "Zunô" means "Brain" in Japanese, appropriately.
* TheOmniscient: He knows about ''everything'' in the universe. He knew exactly what Bulma's breast size was, even before they began to drop. He's even more knowledgeable than Whis.
* SmallRoleBigImpact: Despite him showing up for only two scenes in the Future Trunks Saga, it's him telling Zamasu about the Super Dragon Balls and Goku that gives Zamasu the information needed to begin his plans, [[spoiler: first by killing his master to become a Supreme Kai and taking the Time Ring, using it to go a year into the future, and making a wish on the Super Dragon Balls to take Goku's body, creating Goku Black]].
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: It's him giving information to Zamasu about the Super Dragon Balls and Goku, that kick starts the major events of the Future Trunks Saga and creates the StableTimeLoop.

[[folder:Bah]]
!!Bah
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bah_bro.png]]

On Planet Vampa, there is a race of giant snake-dog creatures. Although Paragus thought they were all AlwaysChaoticEvil, in truth some of them are capable of bonding with something not belonging to its kin. One of these creatures was Broly's training partner, and he named him "Bah" after the sounds he made.

* AllegoricalCharacter: He represents what the audience believes Broly is: an AlwaysChaoticEvil beast with no redeeming qualities, with Paragus serving as a AudienceSurrogate about it. The fact Bah was able to bond with Broly mirrors his CharacterDevelopment with Cheelai, Lemo [[spoiler:and Goku at the end of the film]].
* AlwaysChaoticEvil: Paragus thought all the snake-dogs were feral uncontrollable beasts, yet Bah subverted this notion, as he was capable of bonding with Broly.
* FirstFriend: To Broly. Meeting and playing with Bah had remained one of Broly's fondest memories, to the point he keeps the ear Paragus shot off as a pelt and becomes quite protective of it.
* OnlyFriend: Bah was Broly's only friend. Quite tragic, they didn't even knew each other for that long.
* PetTheDog: In both ways. The Snake-dog creatures are known feral monsters, yet one of them managed to bond with a young Broly. This also works in-universe, as its friendship with the creature shows Broly is a pure-hearted Saiyan instead of the psychopath of old, as he retains Bah's memory with him all the time.
* SmallRoleBigImpact: He only appears for less than a minute in the film in the form of flashbacks, yet he gives a much more complete insight of Broly's as a character.

* HeroWorshipper: Like most of the rest of the world, she's a fan of Mr. Satan. She also gets pretty excited about [[spoiler:spending time with Gohan after learning he's the Great Saiyaman]]. However, this is all a ploy since she was [[spoiler: bullied by Barry into setting up Gohan to make it appear that she's having a love affair with him]]. She doesn't follow through with it after Gohan shows her real compassion and warmth, and truly does see Gohan as a hero.
* HiddenDepths: She opens up to Gohan about some insecurities of hers and how worthless she feels compared to him, a superhero who's friends with aliens.
* HopelessSuitor: Her ShipTease with [[HappilyMarried Gohan]] is obviously never going to progress beyond being a [[AllLoveIsUnrequited one-sided crush]].
* MomentOfWeakness: Even though she knows Gohan is HappilyMarried, she can't help but give him a ''genuine'' parting kiss as appreciation for how kind he was to her. [[spoiler: Videl does not hold it against her when she is shown the photos of them kissing by Barry.]]
* NiceGirl: Probably one of the nicer characters in the show, despite [[spoiler:knowing the Great Saiyaman's identity]] and using it to blackmail him. Although, the blackmail is extremely mild (compared to Videl's). She only wants [[spoiler: Gohan to fly her home and work on her lines, and even that was because she was set up by Barry. [[BewareTheNiceOnes She later blackmails Barry into keeping Gohan's identity a secret]].]]
* SecretKeeper: She ends up finding out the [[spoiler:Great Saiyaman's SecretIdentity]] after eavesdropping on a conversation between Gohan and Bulma. She promises to keep it a secret though. She also makes sure Barry never tells anyone about the Great Saiyaman by threatening to reveal that he was the [[spoiler: the monster who wrecked the city]].
* ShipTease: She plays the Great Saiyaman's love interest in the movie, and ironically enough, [[spoiler:she meets and develops genuine romantic feelings for the real Great Saiyaman]].

[[folder:Yurin]]
!!'''Yurin (ユーリン, ''Yūrin'')'''
[[quoteright:152:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/yurin_dokkan.png]]
->'''Voiced by (Japanese):''' Creator/AiMaeda\\
'''Voiced by (English):''' Creator/LuciChristian\\
'''Voiced by (Latin American Spanish):''' Ana Lobo

A girl from Tien's past who was a member of the Crane School along with Tien and Chiaotzu and after Tien left vowed once she grew up to find and defeat him.

* ButtMonkey: She tries to be threatening but spends a majority of the episode having to deal with Roshi ogling her. Twice she unintentionally flashes him to her displeasure.
* ChineseVampire: With her spells, she can mind control anyone and make them into a sort of ''jiang-shi.'' Thanks to this, she could control Master Roshi and give Goku a good impression of what Roshi true power really is like.
* EasilyForgiven: After her plan is foiled, Tien offers to let her enroll in his dojo so she can become stronger. She does apologize and ask for forgiveness though for what she did.
* EdibleThemeNaming: Her name comes from ''Yūrinchī'', a chinese fried chicken.
* {{Expy}}: Fanservice version of Chichi.
* EvilCounterpart: She seems almost like a more vengeful version of teen Chichi in both appearance and personality.
* EvilIsPetty: Her reason for using witchcraft on Tien's students and trashing his dojo is basically to one-up Tien after he ignored her pleas to fight him, left the school to go traveling, and then forgot about her. Tien even calls her out on how trivial it is. Although it is also heavily implied that her real reason was a crush on him, making this a different trope.
* HeelFaceTurn: Ends up stopping her plans for vengeance against Tien and joining his dojo.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: She's a petty villain that has no relevance past her episode ever again, but instead of being punished for her crimes and disappearing/dying like most one-off villains, she apologizes to Tien and the townsfolk and ends up one of his new dojo students. Judging by TheCameo in the finale, she's definitely pulled a bit of a HeelFaceTurn as a full-time student aiding the others.
* MaleGaze: Her debut (and only) episode emphasizes her rear and legs shortly after her introduction.
* NotSoHarmlessVillain: While Yurin's fighting power is low in of itself, she knows witchcraft and using paper talismans applied to a person's face, puts them under her control as she does with Tien's students and Roshi.
* OlderThanTheyLook: Appears to be in her late teens to early 20s. Since she was in training when Tenshinhan left the Crane school, she'd have to be in her thirties or forties based on her apparent age in the flashback.
* ReluctantFanserviceGirl: First appears wearing a traditional outfit but is dragged into wearing a more revealing outfit by Roshi complete with her shoulders bared and a miniskirt, which she does not like at all.
* RememberTheNewGuy: Apparently she was a student at the Crane School like Tien and Chiaotzu, but was never even mentioned once until her debut episode.
* {{Revenge}}: For a bit of a [[EvilIsPetty petty and selfish reason]] in that she held a vendetta for a ridiculous amount of time for [[DisproportionateRetribution Tien leaving the Crane School]]. Somehow it's ''this'' that she hangs onto, and not the shaming of Master Shen, the death of Shen's brother Tao or the like. Then again, see {{Tsundere}} below.
* {{Tsundere}}: Yurin leaps between being excited to find Tien again, and wanting revenge. Considering how easily she pulls a HeelFaceTurn when he asks her to join his dojo, and the fact that her entire spiel of vengeance focused entirely around Tien leaving the Crane School rather than anything else, odds are she might have had a crush on him when she was younger and just exhibited it as violent rage. Tien accepting her as a student brings out the "dere" side afterward, albeit with a weak claim that it was because he was pestering her about it.
* UnknownRival: Tien forgot about her after he left The Crane School and it wasn't until she called him a "three-eyed baldy" that he remembers who she is.
* WomanChild: She acts like a teenage girl despite being in her thirties or forties.

A character who only appears in the anime version, in episode 31. He's a red frog-like alien who is a serial dine and dasher.

* BeastMan: As stated, he is a red frog-like alien.
* TheCameo: Appears along with Jaco in the seventh ending, "Angels and Demons".
* KeepItForeign: Generally, the Funimation dub keeps his name as Geppuman.
* MeaningfulName: He eats food at restaurants and leaves without paying, and it's not uncommon to "burp" after eating at a restaurant.
* TheScapegoat: He's one for Jaco when the latter accidentally blows up a valuable monument.
* StupidCrooks: Repeat offender or not, leaving diners without paying would only be a misdemeanor. When he sees a member of the Galactic Patrol, he freaks out and holds a hostage at gunpoint, upgrading his status to "felon".
* VillainousGlutton: Zigzagged. Going from restaurant to restaurant, leaving without paying for your meals is clearly a criminal offense, but nothing serious. When he grabs a hostage and holds him at gunpoint, he establishes himself as a villain.

'''Voiced by (English):''' Bob Hess\\
'''Voiced by (Latin American Spanish):''' Herman López

The sole inhabitant of Planet Potaufeu who guards over the Comméson Water. A friend of Monaka's who he orders magazines from.

* EdibleThemeNaming: "Potage" is an old French name for thick soups, stews, or porridges. In fact, the name Potage's planet, Potaufeu, seems to come from "Pot-au-feu", a French stew.
* FunnyForeigner: In keeping with the French name-theming for Potage and his planet, he has a very thick French/German accent in the English dub.
* LastOfHisKind: The sole remaining survivor of his race who sacrificed themselves to seal the Comméson.
* MrExposition: Serves this role, explaining what the Comméson water is and its powers.
* PaperTiger: When confronted by Gryll he first puts on an air of confidence and goes into a fighting pose that Trunks notes is impressive. The moment Gryll's thugs pull out their blasters though he retreats.

!!! Manga-Exclusive Characters
[[AC:Cerealians]]
[[folder:The Cerealians]]
An alien race native to the planet Cereal that were wiped out by the Saiyans shortly before Kakarot/Son Goku was sent to Earth. Despite resembling humans, they have lifespans of up to 200 years and various powers based on their keen sight.

* CharlesAtlasSuperpower: If a Cerealian were to undergo intense training for their entire lives, they could give even the strongest Saiyan a run for their money.
* EdibleThemeNaming: They're named after various grain-based breakfasts.
* {{Foil}}: To the Saiyans. The Saiyans are known for being {{Blood Knight}}s who charge headfirst into a fight and gleefully wipe out populations, while the Cerealians are sociable beings who share their planet with non-native races and their combat abilities are based around sniping rather than brawling. The Saiyans are named after vegetables, while the Cerealians are named after grains.
* HumanAlien: Just like the Saiyans and certain members of Frieza's empire, they look just like regular humans, the only difference being their mismatched eyes.
* LongLived: Cerealians have a lifespan of 200 years.
* OlderThanTheyLook: Just like with the Saiyans, Cerealians age at a slower rate than humans, being able to pass for 20-somethings well into their 50s. Given their extended lifespans, this is to be expected.
* SuperSenses: Their right eye is "evolved" in structure to grant them incredible eyesight, looking like the pupil and iris are fused together into a red spot. Under certain conditions, they can temporarily transform their left eye to match.

[[folder:Granolah]]
!!Granolah (グラノラKan, Guranora)
[[quoteright:286:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/granolah.png]]

A bounty hunter, and the titular main antagonist-turned-protagonist of the Granolah the Survivor Saga. Granolah is the only remaining member of the Cerealians, a race wiped out by the Saiyans long ago. He is introduced stealing OG-73, the infamous android used by Moro, for a bounty offered by the information broker Elec.

He is aided by an AI in his headset called Oatmeel.

* ActuallyADoombot: [[spoiler:As it turns out, Granolah had sent a split copy of him after the Saiyans, since he wished to conserve some of his power for the eventual showdown with Frieza. When it turns out that the copy can't handle Goku's Mastered Ultra Instinct, he dispels it and take down Goku while the latter is still surprised.]]
* AntiVillain: At first, his only goal is to avenge his race's destruction by killing Frieza, but his wish to become the strongest in the universe leads him into conflict with Goku and Vegeta as all three of them are played into the Heeters' hands.
* AwesomenessByAnalysis: [[spoiler:Thanks to his eye, Granolah manages to deduce the nature of Ultra Instinct, and by observing Goku's blood flow and muscle movements, he's able to land a blow on his vitals, allowing him to drop the Saiyan to his knees. He also understood that Goku was still not at full power.]]
* BenevolentAlienInvasion: He bears no ill will towards the Sugarians, the naïve alien race that purchased the barren planet Cereal from the Heeters in order to rebuild their own civilisation. However, their existence serves as a painful reminder of Granola's own lost race and he's uncomfortable seeing their glass-domed citadels replace the original cities of the Cerealians on the very same land ruined by the Saiyans years prior. [[spoiler:He has no qualms about stealing the second Dragon Ball from them, but he cannot bear to cause collateral damage to their cities during his battles against the Saiyan duo, showing that he does care for them.]]
* BigBadEnsemble: He shares the spotlight with Elec, while Granolah's major grudge against Frieza and the Saiyans are the driving force of the arc, Elec's mechanizations and plans are as much of a driving force of the conflict.
* BloodKnight: He relishes the opportunity to fight Frieza and the last remaining Saiyans.
* BountyHunter: How Granolah earns his living.
* CastFromLifespan:
** [[spoiler:His wish to become the strongest in the universe would normally not be grantable, but the Cerealian Dragon is able to achieve a similar effect... for a price. Namely, all but three years left of the lifespan he would have originally had, under the logic that he then receives all the power he could have gathered during those years all at once.]]
** [[spoiler: His ultimate attack also drains his life-force, to the point that he was prepared to die by firing it to kill Vegeta, until he was interrupted. When he does fire it at Gas later on, he comments that doing so probably shortened his lifespan even more.]]
* CharacterDevelopment: Granolah starts out as a bounty hunter and assassin with a mind full of vengeance. After defeating Gas he turns pacifist and tells Macki and Oil to look after their brother. Granolah has finally learned his lesson that revenge only leads to more pain and grudges and finally lets go of his grudge against Frieza and the Saiyans and retires from being a bounty hunter so he can start a new life of with Monaito of living in peace and having normal lives with no fighting.
* CombatPragmatist: [[spoiler:When Goku and Vegeta come looking for him, Granolah begins the fight by hurling several deadly projectiles from afar, using his newfound might, special eye, and expertise as a sniper to overwhelm the two Saiyans. Had it not been for a timely Senzu Bean, that opening move alone would've been enough to kill even Goku.]]
* DeathSeeker: [[spoiler:As his battle with Vegeta rages on with no clear victory in sight for either party, Granolah charges up a huge, self-destructive ki blast and declares his willingness to burn his remaining life away just to put the stubborn Saiyan prince down, completely losing sight of his true mission to kill Frieza. His HeroicBSOD moment in the Sugarian city may have influenced his suicidal decision.]]
* DidntThinkThisThrough: Argued by Monaito who tells him that while he may be [[spoiler:the strongest in the universe]] today, he does not think about the dangers in the future. [[spoiler:True enough, the Heeters wish for Gas to be the strongest.]]
* DubNameChange: Oatmeel is renamed Automil in the Spanish translation.
* EdibleThemeNaming: The Cerealians are named after different types of breakfast. In Granolah and Oatmeel's cases, they're named after '''granola''' and '''oatmeal''', respectively. The Cerealian race itself is named after '''cereal'''.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Granolah's eager reaction to Frieza's revival. That he responds positively to this because of the opportunity to kill the tyrant himself, [[{{Hypocrite}} without any regard for the further harm Frieza will cause]], shows just how consumed by the desire for revenge he is.
* EveryoneHasStandards: When Vegeta brings their fight to an evacuated Sugarian city, Granolah puts aside all of his bravado and outright begs Vegeta to take the fight somewhere else. He may be consumed by vengeance, but Granolah doesn't want to damage the Sugarians' home the same way the Saiyans ruined his. This is especially notable as he was willing to brawl in the Cerealian city ruins, albeit reluctantly. [[spoiler:When he sees a lone mother and child cowering from the battle, he has a full-blown HeroicBSOD moment.]]
* EvilIsEasy: Not necessarily evil in action or intent, but resorting to wishing for ultimate power from a dragon is directly at odds with the natural self-improvement philosophies of the protagonists. It's also worth noting that none of the series' antagonists have used the Dragon Balls to directly increase their own power.
* ExpositionFairy: Oatmeel functions as this and TheWatson, questioning and relaying details about Granola's own past to him, creating a few awkward AsYouKnow situations. This raises some questions about why Oatmeel lacks so much information about his own friend/master's history...
* {{Expy}}: Granolah shares many similarities from Toki, the main protagonist of Toriyama's one-shot manga, ''Manga/{{Kintoki}}''. Examples:
** Like Toki, Granolah also has spiked hair, sports a scarf and an outfit with a green-brown aesthetic.
** Toki is a member of the Kinme, a clan who possess golden eyes which make them gifted marksmen, similar to Granolah being a Cerealian - who possess a special red eye that makes them good marksmen.
** Granolah and Toki are amongst the last of their kind.
** Toki has a short lifespan like the rest of his race and is on a quest due to this fact. Granolah is impatiently on a quest due to his short lifespan, due to wishing for power rather than natural reasons.
** Granolah is a bounty hunter who makes money by selling targets to the Heeters, similarly Toki is a hunter who kills Thundras and then sells them to make a living.
* EyeScream: Granolah ends up [[spoiler:having his precious eyes shot out by Gas after being weakened enough.]]
* FatalFlaw: His thirst for revenge on Frieza. While no one would shed a tear for the tyrant, Granolah's first reaction to his resurrection is a rather unhinged glee at the prospect he can finally have revenge rather than horror, and it's the reason he makes a wish that costs most of his lifespan. It also makes him easily manipulated by the Heeters.
* FromNobodyToNightmare: He quickly ascends from a highly skilled but relatively weak mercenary from an almost extinct species to [[spoiler:the mightiest warrior in the universe thanks to a wish made on the Cerealian Dragon Balls.]]
* HeroicBSOD: Flashes back to his own traumatic past after seeing a Sugarian mother and child cowering from him during his fierce battle against Vegeta, realising that he has become no better than the Saiyans that attacked his planet. Unfortunately, it becomes an IgnoredEpiphany as Vegeta goads him over it.
* HeWhoFightsMonsters: Granolah's fight with Vegeta leads to them brawling in a populated city. When Granolah sees a mother and child cowering in fear of him, he's reminded of his own childhood when he and his mother were terrorised by the Saiyans.
* HumanAliens: The Cerealians, and by default Granolah, look no different from regular Earthlings, barring their right eyes which can be used to see from great distances.
* IgnoredEpiphany: When Granolah sees two innocent bystanders giving him the same terrified look he and his mother gave the Saiyans all those years ago, Granolah's reaction is to take it out on Vegeta, blaming the Saiyans for dragging him down to their level, [[NeverMyFault when the whole fight was his idea]].
* LastOfHisKind: Granolah is the last survivor of the Cerealian race, which was wiped out by the Saiyans.
* LockedOutOfTheLoop: Granolah believes the false story that the Saiyans were wiped out by a meteor. He's also unaware of Frieza's revival -- at least, until Elec reveals that to him.
* LongRangeFighter: Granolah's species are natural snipers with a right eye specifically tailored for it. Thus, while knowing how to fight in melee, he prefers to fight at range where he's more comfortable.
* MagicalEye: As a Cerealian, his right eye looks different than normal and can be used to see across great distances. Oatmeel notes that Granolah's ability in particular is a cut above the rest of his kind and makes him an incredible sniper. [[spoiler:After being on the receiving end of a beatdown from a newly-awakened Ultra Ego Vegeta, Granolah's left eye awakens into a second red eye, echoing Vegeta's own newfound strength as he destroys a planet-destroying attack launched his way.]]
* MadeOfIron: He's durable enough to go toe-to-toe with beings that have achieved Ultra Instinct and Ultra Ego. While Goku and Vegeta weren't trying to kill him, the fact that he can take a punch from beings who are on par with gods and angels is a testament to his power.
* NoNonsenseNemesis: When he finally does run into Goku and Vegeta, he tries to take them out as fast as possible. Downplayed, as he does spend a little time talking to them and telling them he's the strongest in the universe, but then immediately tries to kill Goku twice on the grounds that he only needs one of them alive to give him the information he thinks they have.
* OlderThanTheyLook: Granolah witnessed his race being exterminated by Bardock before the events of the story, with the heeters noting that he's currently 50 years old. Despite this, he looks to be in his 20s or early 30s. Chapter 70 of the DBS manga reveals his race can live up to 2 centuries.
* PintSizedPowerhouse: He's been a working as a bounty hunter since he was a young child and he had already earned a fearsome reputation back then.
* PowerAtAPrice: The price being several decades of his expected lifespan.
* PressurePoint: While he has plenty of power in his regular punches, Granolah specializes in hitting vital points, which he can locate through the use of his special eye. It's effective enough to severely rattle Goku and dispels his god-forms whenever he's hit.
* {{Revenge}}: Granolah is consumed by his need to avenge his people.
* RevengeByProxy: He doesn't care a bit that Goku and Vegeta were only children at the time the Cerealians were wiped out and thus had nothing to do with it.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: His name has been alternatively spelt as "Granolah", "Granolla" or simply "Granola".
* SteamPunk: His design was inspired by this aesthetic movement, to emphasise the fact that he is a relic from an old civilisation.
* TookALevelInKindness: After hearing the truth regarding the death of his people, Granolah apologizes to Goku and Vegeta for taking his wrath out on them. He also takes pity on Gas once he's defeated and lets him live.
* TheUnfettered: There's no risk he's unwilling to take in his mission to become the strongest in the universe.
* UnskilledButStrong: As said by Vegeta, Granolah has immense raw power, and does fight with finesse, but he lacks the Saiyans's considerable battle experience, which Vegeta demonstrates when he rattles Granolah with an attack of his own despite being weaker than him.
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: Back when the Cerealians were wiped out, Granolah was unconscious when Bardock rescued him and his mother, only to wake up right when they were hiding from the Heeters. As soon as Granolah saw Bardock's tail, he cried out in surprise, blowing their cover and attracting the Heeters to their hiding place. This moment of shortsightedness led to Muezli being killed.
* VillainHasAPoint: Despite being an antagonist, he has every reason to hate the Saiyans and Frieza, since the former were wiping out entire populations for fun while the latter is a racist, sadistic ego-maniac. His only flaw is taking his wrath out on Goku and Vegeta, who had nothing to do with his race's demise and also see Frieza as an enemy.
* WellIntentionedExtremist: He wishes to exterminate Frieza from the face of the universe, but carelessly throws away his life and friendship with Monaito in exchange for the power boost necessary to defeat the intergalactic tyrant.
* WorldsStrongestMan: He makes a wish using the Cerealian Dragon Balls to become the strongest in the universe so he can get revenge on both Frieza and the Saiyans. Despite lacking both the battle experience and [[spoiler:sacrificing his lifespan to achieve his wish]], he's still powerful enough to go toe-to-toe with Goku and Vegeta.
* YourDaysAreNumbered: [[spoiler:When he makes his wish to be the strongest in the universe, the dragon Toronbo tells him he will have to sacrifice his lifespan by 150 years. This means he now has 3 years left to live]].

[[folder:Muezli]]
!!Muezli
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/granolahs_mom.jpg]]

Granolah's mother who died decades before the events of the Granolah arc.
----
* ActionMom: She does everything she can to protect her son when Freeza's forces arrive to take the planet.
* EdibleThemeNaming: [[FamilyThemeNaming Like her son]], she is named after a breakfast grain, muesli.
* MoralityPet: Her determination to protect her son reminds Bardock of his own wife and son, which inspires a rare moment of compassion in the Saiyan warrior. In spite of himself, Bardock goes to extraordinary lengths to keep Muezli, Granolah and Monaito safe from the other Saiyans.
* PosthumousCharacter: Died during the Saiyan invasion forty years ago, alongside every other Cerealian besides Granolah. [[spoiler:However, she was not murdered by a Saiyan as Granolah was led to believe all his life. In fact, she was saved by none other than Bardock and was actually killed by Elec.]]
* StrongFamilyResemblance: Muezli looks like a [[DistaffCounterpart female version]] of Granolah.

->'''Voiced by (Japanese):''' Creator/NobuyukiHiyama\\
'''Voiced by (English):''' Creator/RobertMcCollum\\
'''Voiced by (Latin American Spanish):''' Jerry Velázquez

An actor for the "''Great Saiyaman vs. Mr. Satan''" movie, he is quite the charmer. However, he's not as nice as he seems.

* AerithAndBob: In a world where people can be named Goku and Videl and Tien Shinhan, this guy is named "Barry".
* AscendedExtra: He appeared in a magazine in ''Anime/DragonBallZ'' (chapter 476 of the manga). He was the supermodel Fat Buu copied the face of in order to receive a kiss from a girl before he killed her for rejecting him. Also counts as an example of a ContinuityNod.
* AttentionWhore: He can't stand the thought of ''not'' being the center of attention, and it's clear the "''Great Saiyaman vs. Mr. Satan''" is just a VanityProject made for him to plaster his face in every nook and cranny imaginable. Gohan standing out and getting more attention than him sets him off ''big-time''.
* AxCrazy: He goes nuts when he is [[spoiler:taken over by Watagash, kidnaps Pan, and lures Gohan out to kill him in front of the public in a crazed rage]].
* BeautyIsBad: He's a very good-looking man and acts nice in public, but behind closed doors, he's an egomaniacal asshole who belittles others and throws tantrums when he doesn't get his way.
* BitchInSheepsClothing: He acts charming and nice, but it's soon made clear that Barry is a major {{Jerkass}} and SpoiledBrat who only puts up said charming and nice act to get people to do what he wants. The point is driven home when [[spoiler:he's possessed by Watagash, who's specifically noted to only [[MoreThanMindControl draw out hatred and evil that's already present in his host's heart]], not create it]].
* BodyHorror: In Episode 74, [[spoiler:Watagash uses him as his host and beats down Gohan, and he turns into outright terrifying forms as he grows stronger]].
* BreakTheHaughty: After getting [[spoiler: taken over by Watagash and going DrunkWithPower, Gohan beats him down with ease after he becomes Super Great Saiyaman]] and then Cocoa blackmails him with threatening to tell the public about his time as Watagash's host if he even thinks about outing Gohan's secret to the world.
* BullyingADragon: Despite knowing Gohan is the Great Saiyaman, a superhero famous for beating up dozens of guys with machine guns, Barry starts threatening to expose Gohan and shouting threats of sending {{paparazzi}} after Gohan and his family after Videl rejects him a second time. In response, Gohan ''politely'' tells him to stop or he will [[PapaWolf wake up Pan]]. Barry refuses to take the hint, snapping that Gohan's just a stuntman and can't tell him what to do, Gohan grabs onto him, rushes him at hypersonic-speed, and stops just before a wall, scaring the living daylights out of him, before once more ''[[TranquilFury politely]]'' telling him to leave.
* TheCharmer: Tries to charm Videl right next to Gohan. However, Videl doesn't buy it, outright telling Gohan that "he is cooler".
* DisproportionateRetribution: He didn't know Gohan was superhuman so he fully intended to have him hurt/killed doing a stunt as revenge for his wife's rejection.
* DrunkOnTheDarkSide: [[spoiler:He ''really'' enjoys the power boost he gets from Watagash.]]
* EvilIsPetty: He allows Gohan to be a stuntman and hopes for him to be seriously hurt or killed because Videl snubbed him when he tried hitting on her. He then tries to ruin Gohan's marriage by setting him up with Cocoa, taking pictures of her kissing Gohan, and then showing those pictures to Videl. Videl isn't fooled for a minute and shreds the pictures before shooting Barry down with a TheReasonYouSuckSpeech, remarking how pathetic it is that Barry [[SpoiledBrat is treated like royalty and still acts like an insecure little brat]].
* FaceOfAnAngelMindOfADemon: He's a handsome, charming man, and an absolute SpoiledBrat who will resort to trickery, blackmail, and even [[spoiler:kidnapping babies]] the very ''instant'' something doesn't go his way or he isn't [[AttentionWhore the center of attention]]. When he's [[spoiler:possessed by Watagash, all of his inner evil and darkness is brought to the surface]].
* FatalMethodActing: {{Invoked}}. Barry has no problem with risking the life of his stuntman just to make a scene look cooler. He is eager to see Gohan get hurt or killed when he takes the stuntman's place.
* FauxAffablyEvil: He's willing to act charming, polite, and nice when it suits him, as seen with his interactions with Mr. Satan; the second something ''doesn't'' go his way, Barry drops the act and is perfectly willing to resort to such lows as trickery, blackmail, and even [[spoiler:kidnapping babies]].
* {{Foil}}: Arguably to ''Zamasu'' of all people. Both of them are ''insanely'' petty, prone to DisproportionateRetribution over the most minor of slights, and have a ''massive'' InferioritySuperiorityComplex. The biggest difference between them is that Zamasu has the strength to be a universal threat while Barry's only 'power' is his social influence.
* FrameUp: Tries to frame Gohan and make it look like he's cheating on Videl with Cocoa so he can have her all to himself. Videl, however, knows her husband and throws Barry out of the house.
* GreenEyedMonster: He really didn't like Gohan getting more attention than him after he successfully pulled his stunt of jumping on a moving tank, pulling out the driver, and changing the pose that he came up with. He's also jealous that Gohan is married to Videl and actually tries to ruin their marriage in revenge. [[spoiler:It gets to the point where after being taken over by Watagash, he fully intends to murder Gohan out of simple envy and spite.]]
* GrandTheftMe: He is [[spoiler:taken over by Watagash because he has so much darkness in his heart]].
* HateSink: The audience is clearly not supposed to like Barry since he is an insufferable {{Jerkass}} who will risk the life of his stunt double just to make a scene look cooler and wishes harm to others because they snub him.
* HeroWorshipper: {{Subverted}}. He wants a movie about the Great Saiyaman not because he's any fan of the guy, but because he figures it would be an interesting contrast if a popular star like him plays a dorky, forgotten figure. Unlike most civilians and people who aren't in the know, he's not really a fan of Mr. Satan either, having only read the first page of his autobiography to quote so he can appeal to the man's ego when pitching the movie to him, and likely only approached Mr. Satan so the movie could ride off of his fame and popularity.
* HopelessSuitor: Tries to flirt with Videl, who is absolutely not interested and HappilyMarried to Gohan, who she considers much cooler. He doesn't take the rejection well.
* HumansAreTheRealMonsters: He's easily one of the biggest, most evil bastards in the series, which is saying something given the monsters the franchise is known for, and was already that way even before [[spoiler:Watagash hijacked his body and gave him superpowers. To drive the point home, it's established that Watagash doesn't induce any evil or hatred in his host's heart, he merely brings it to the surface; when Barry is possessed, he becomes strong enough to overpower base Gohan, something a violent bank robber was unable to do, which goes to show just how evil and heartless Barry really is]].
* ItsAllAboutMe: He only wants to star in a movie about the Great Saiyaman because he wants to plaster his face in every nook and cranny imaginable. He also doesn't take rejection well, since he hopes Gohan will be seriously hurt doing a highly dangerous stunt. Videl actually calls him out on this in her TheReasonYouSuckSpeech, saying how Barry is treated like a prince, yet is so insecure that he would resort to trickery and blackmail when he isn't the center of attention.
* {{Jerkass}}: Is a jerk to almost everyone, including the director of the Great Saiyaman film, the intended stunt double for the Great Saiyaman (until Gohan took his place), and Gohan himself. He acts nice to Mr. Satan, but that's all a facade to get him to do what he wants. He's also polite to the ladies, for all the wrong reasons.
* JerkJock: He ''tries'' to invoke the "bad boy biker in a leather jacket" persona that {{Chick Magnet}}s like Creator/JamesDean are famous for being. Unlike James Dean, who as a rule played JerkWithAHeartOfGold characters, Barry is just a plain old jerk with no gold in sight.
* KarmaHoudini: He gets off ''very'' lightly for [[spoiler:setting Gohan up so he can ruin his marriage and kidnapping baby Pan to spite Videl and Gohan. The worst punishment he gets is him getting blackmailed by Cocoa in case he ever exposed Gohan's identity as the Great Saiyaman]].
* KickTheDog: Barry proves what a {{Jerkass}} he is by forcing a stuntman to jump on top of a speeding tank without wires, not caring if the man gets hurt or killed. He also lets Gohan do the stunt out of spite for Videl's rejection, hoping that Gohan gets injured.
* ManipulativeBastard: He manipulates Cocoa into [[spoiler:framing Gohan for infidelity]].
* {{Narcissist}}: He displays some of the traits of genuine narcissism, being an extremely self-absorbed man as his VanityProject lays out quite well and essentially goes into a narcissistic rage when [[spoiler:Videl snubs him the first and second time]].
* NiceCharacterMeanActor: He plays the protagonist in his movies, yet in real life, he is a major jerkass and HateSink.
* NotGoodWithRejection: Everything he does, [[spoiler:both before and after he's possessed by Watagash]], is purely because Videl, a ''married'' woman, shot him down when he tried hitting on her.
* PlayingAgainstType: {{Invoked}} in-universe. The Great Saiyaman is considered by the public to be an uncool hero who made the headlines for a while then vanished, and Barry thinks it'll be amusing to play someone so different from (how he sees) himself.
* ThePowerOfHate: Watagashi becomes more powerful the eviler the heart of its current host is; [[spoiler: the fact that Barry becomes stronger than base form Gohan when possessed, something even a violent bank robber couldn't do, reveals just how horrible a person he is]].
* PsychopathicManchild: All of his actions are motivated by the fact that someone said "no" to him. This trait is made all the more clearer in his VillainousBreakdown when Videl snubs him again; he throws a screaming tantrum, ranting about how much of a big deal he is while pounding on his car with his fists and sulking like a child who didn't get what he wanted.
* PrimaDonnaDirector: He has creative and executive power over the Great Saiyaman movie, and will treat the film crew like dirt while making unreasonable demands on them. He even threatens a stuntman's life by changing a scene so that the stuntman will have to jump on top of a moving tank that's speeding at him ''without wirework''. If the Gohan hadn't substituted for the guy, it would've been FatalMethodActing.
* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Gets one from Videl after he tries to break up her marriage with Gohan by taking pictures of Cocoa kissing him:
--> '''Videl''': I feel bad for you. [''tears up the pictures''] I can't believe you'd go through all of this just because I turned down your autograph! And does it really bother you so much that Gohan gets a moment to shine? You're the most famous guy around, but you're also the most insecure. ''That's'' why I feel bad for you.
* SecretKeeper: During an attempt to frame Gohan for infidelity, he discovers Great Saiyaman's SecretIdentity is Gohan. [[spoiler:He is blackmailed into keeping quiet by Cocoa, who threatens to reveal his actions under the influence of Watagash if he spills the beans.]]
* SignatureStyle: He mentions that his films are famous for having stunts without wires and insists on maintaining this even when he changes a scene so that a stuntman will have to jump on top of a moving tank.
* {{Slimeball}}: Uses his fame, money, and good looks to sleaze and bully his way up the social ladder and coerce women into sleeping with him. Put him in a business suit and he will not be out of place in ''Film/TheWolfOfWallStreet.''
* TheSociopath: A high-functioning example; Barry possesses a superficial charm and charisma that masks a total inability to feel empathy for others; takes amusement in watching those less fortunate than himself cower in fear by threatening their livelihoods and futures, an utter lack of conscience, to the extent of being willing to ruin marriages and [[spoiler:kidnap innocent children]] over jilted love. Barry would be ''just'' as dangerous as Frieza if only he was more powerful [[spoiler:and Watagashi possessing him made him just that]].
* SpoiledBrat: He expects to be given everything and anything, and if he doesn't he flips his shit. Videl [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech calls him out on this]], remarking that he's so insecure despite being treated like royalty. His VillainousBreakdown over Videl snubbing him a second time takes the form of a blatant temper tantrum.
-->'''Barry:''' I don't care if he's a superhero, you ''don't'' disrespect me! I'm superstar Barry Khan! I'm rich! I'm famous! I still read for under 20! He should worship me!
* UriahGambit: Sort of. He approves Gohan's request to substitute for the stuntman in a very dangerous action scene that he thought would've invoked some FatalMethodActing. Reminiscent of the biblical TropeNamer, he tries to pull this on a man whose wife he tried to hit on.
* VanityProject: It's clear that "''Great Saiyaman vs. Mr. Satan''" is one of these for him. He acts like a PrimaDonnaDirector to his film crew, tries to make the assistant director rename the movie to "Barry Kahn in ''Great Saiyaman vs. Mr. Satan''", cast a famous idol as his character's love interest, only chose to play the Great Saiyaman because he thought there'd be an interesting contrast between a famous star like him to play a washed-up has-been, and he doesn't actually respect his costar, only approaching Mr. Satan to ride off of his popularity.
* VillainousBreakdown: Has a massive tantrum when Videl catches on about his FrameUp attempt on Gohan, thumping his car and yelling to himself about how much of a big deal he is. This ultimately culminates in him [[spoiler:kidnapping Pan and challenging Gohan to a fight after he is taken over by Watagash]].
* VillainousCrush: On Videl, to the point of trying to falsely accuse Gohan of cheating - though it's less that he has a thing for her and more that [[ItsAllAboutMe he's outraged that]] ''[[ItsAllAboutMe she]]'' [[ItsAllAboutMe didn't fall for]] ''[[ItsAllAboutMe him]]''.
* WagTheDirector: {{Invoked}} routinely by Barry. He uses his fame to bully film crews and directors to make stupid and dangerous alterations to productions to better inflate his self-image. However, when faced with a director with ''genuine'' force of will, he will hastily back off.
* WouldHurtAChild: Watagashi only amplifies the evil within his host; he doesn't induce it. [[spoiler:Barry's status as human garbage is therefore confirmed when he kidnaps and endangers the life of baby Pan, and holds her hostage as a final gesture of petty spite for Videl's rejection.]]

A popular IdolSinger who got cast as the love interest in "''Great Saiyaman vs. Mr. Satan''".

* AllLoveIsUnrequited: For Gohan, who is completely loyal to his wife Videl. Although, she doesn't mind.
* BecomingTheMask: Though she is manipulated by Barry into [[spoiler:making it look like she and Gohan are having a secret love affair]], after a heart-to-heart talk with Gohan, she genuinely falls for him and refuses to continue with the plan, [[spoiler:although Barry still ends up getting the incriminating "evidence" he wanted from her anyway]].
* TheDogBitesBack: [[spoiler: After Barry blackmails her into trying to frame Gohan as cheating on his wife]], she one-ups him by blackmailing him into keeping quiet about Gohan's superhero identity by threatening to tell the public about his time as [[spoiler: Watagash's host if he spills the beans.]]
* HeroWorshipper: Like most of the rest of the world, she's a fan of Mr. Satan. She also gets pretty excited about [[spoiler:spending time with Gohan after learning he's the Great Saiyaman]]. However, this is all a ploy since she was [[spoiler: bullied by Barry into setting up Gohan to make it appear that she's having a love affair with him]]. She doesn't follow through with it after Gohan shows her real compassion and warmth, and truly does see Gohan as a hero.
* HiddenDepths: She opens up to Gohan about some insecurities of hers and how worthless she feels compared to him, a superhero who's friends with aliens.
* HopelessSuitor: Her ShipTease with [[HappilyMarried Gohan]] is obviously never going to progress beyond being a [[AllLoveIsUnrequited one-sided crush]].
* MomentOfWeakness: Even though she knows Gohan is HappilyMarried, she can't help but give him a ''genuine'' parting kiss as appreciation for how kind he was to her. [[spoiler: Videl does not hold it against her when she is shown the photos of them kissing by Barry.]]
* NiceGirl: Probably one of the nicer characters in the show, despite [[spoiler:knowing the Great Saiyaman's identity]] and using it to blackmail him. Although, the blackmail is extremely mild (compared to Videl's). She only wants [[spoiler: Gohan to fly her home and work on her lines, and even that was because she was set up by Barry. [[BewareTheNiceOnes She later blackmails Barry into keeping Gohan's identity a secret]].]]
* SecretKeeper: She ends up finding out the [[spoiler:Great Saiyaman's SecretIdentity]] after eavesdropping on a conversation between Gohan and Bulma. She promises to keep it a secret though. She also makes sure Barry never tells anyone about the Great Saiyaman by threatening to reveal that he was the [[spoiler: the monster who wrecked the city]].
* ShipTease: She plays the Great Saiyaman's love interest in the movie, and ironically enough, [[spoiler:she meets and develops genuine romantic feelings for the real Great Saiyaman]].

'''Voiced by (Latin American Spanish):''' Raúl Anaya

Leader of a galactic crime gang who searches Planet Potafu to obtain the power of the Comméson Water.

* BigBadWannabe: {{Downplayed}}. Gryll is described by Jaco to be a top target for the Galactic Elite and is played out to be the antagonist of the Potaufeu arc even though the heroes vastly outclass him and his minions. Except, they end up dead halfway through his debut episode, with his role being taken over by Copy-Vegeta.[[note]]His death is not pointed out until the following episode, however.[[/note]]
* CombatPragmatist: When Gryll's men attack an old man, the man responds by taking a fighting stance that impresses Goten and Trunks. Gryll's men respond by taking out their guns. When that fails, they retreat and notice that the old man dropped the item they are after and come back for it while Goten and Trunks search for it in the wrong direction. When Goten and Trunks try to attack them again, they take Monaka hostage.
* ElementalShapeshifter: After unlocking the seal to the Comméson Water, he and his men can turn their bodies into a strange purple liquid. [[spoiler:In reality, the water took control of their bodies, and the original Gryll and his men died.]]

->'''Voiced by (Japanese):''' Kouhei Fukuhara\\
'''Voiced by (English):''' Brian Olvera\\
'''Voiced by (Latin American Spanish):''' Raúl Anaya

Special water that was made by planet Potafu's natives to defend against invaders. However, it turned evil and absorbed the natives, so it ended up being locked up. Rumors had it that the water would make others powerful, but this is false, and the result of people misidentifying its true power. This water also controls Copy-Gryll and Copy-Vegeta.

* ArcVillain: It is the primary villain of a story arc that has no connections to any previous villain or story.
* AssimilationBackfire: He finds out the hard way that Copy-Vegeta doesn't take orders any better than the original.
* BullyingADragon: After [[spoiler:Copy-Vegeta]] refuses to absorb Goku, Copy-Gryll electrocutes him so he will obey. This ends horribly for Copy-Gryll.
* CombatPragmatist: While Vegeta is prepared to fight Copy-Gryll directly, Copy-Gryll simply has the special liquid he and his men are made out of drain Vegeta of his energy from behind, making an evil copy of Vegeta. [[spoiler:Copy-Gryll orders Copy-Vegeta to do this to Goku, but Copy-Vegeta has Vegeta's pride, so he isn't going to resort to such a dirty tactic.]]
* DisappearsIntoLight: All victims of the Comméson Water have their strength drained and disappear within 3-5 minutes. However, Vegeta is able to endure for a significantly longer time.
* EdibleThemeNaming: An anagram of consommé, a type of French soup.
* ElementalShapeshifter: The copies it produces can shapeshift into water.
* GoodColorsEvilColors: Anyone who gets touched by the water gets their strength drained and has a purple clone made out of them, with the original eventually disappearing if the water isn't defeated.
* GoneHorriblyRight:
** The people of Planet Potaufeu created it as a powerful weapon that can absorb people and steal their powers. It was created to [[PowerNullifier neutralize the enemies]] of the Potaufeu. However, the Comméson not only takes the [[PowerCopy power of the people it absorbs]], but also their will and spirit. So when the Comméson absorbs the power of an evil person, it too becomes evil. It soon became so powerful that it threatened the universe, so the people of Potaufeu [[HeroicSacrifice sacrificed]] themselves to seal it within the planet.
** By absorbing Vegeta, it copies his personality and will. Since the real Vegeta is far too prideful to fight using dirty tactics or relying on the strength of others to get ahead, the Comméson can't control Copy-Vegeta.
* PowerCopy: The Comméson can take the power and abilities of the people it absorbs, creating a perfect copy. This can be a bad thing if the Comméson absorbs someone as headstrong and as powerful as Vegeta, which it unfortunately does.
* PowerNullifier: The original intention of the Comméson. It was created by the people of Potaufeu to nullify their enemies by stealing their strength. Unfortunately, the Comméson also absorbs its victims' will and spirit, turning it evil since it took the power of evil people.
* SealedEvilInACan: It was sealed in [[ItMakesSenseInContext a pot, which was locked in a fridge, and locked by a padlock that uses a binky as a key]].

[[folder:Copy-Vegeta]]
!!'''Copy-Vegeta (複製ベジータ, ''Fukusei-Bejīta'')'''

->'''Voiced by (Japanese):''' Creator/MasakazuMorita\\
'''Voiced by (English):''' Creator/BrianDrummond\\
'''Voiced by (Latin American Spanish):''' Creator/ReneGarcia

A copy of Vegeta made that was created after the Super Water absorbed him. Along with sharing the appearance of the real Vegeta, he also shares his power, personality, and spirit.

* AntiVillain: [[SlidingScaleOfAntiVillains Of the Noble Villain variety]]. He doesn't like to gain more power by stealing it from others and prefers to fight Goku head-on rather than absorb him from behind like Copy-Gryll.
* CastingGag: The English dub has one of the most impressive examples of these to date, with Creator/BrianDrummond, the voice of Vegeta in the Ocean dub playing him. So for the first time ever, both Vegetas face off in-series!
* CurbStompBattle: Defeats Gotenks with no effort, acting as if the whole fight's a simple training session for Gotenks.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Toyed with. Due to being a copy of Vegeta, he genuinely cares for Trunks and hesitates when Copy-Gryll tells him to absorb Trunks. He later praises Trunks for his efforts in fighting him. [[WouldHurtAChild Not enough to stop him from trying to kill Trunks and Goten however.]]
* EvilKnockOff / EvilCounterpart: Copy-Vegeta is a purple copy of Vegeta created by the Comméson after it absorbs Vegeta's power and personality. Because the Comméson also absorbs Vegeta's will and spirit on top of his power, he doesn't like others telling him what to do, taking the power of others' to boast his own strength, and has a fondness for Trunks.
* FillerVillain: His arc is one of many Toei-original bits of the ''Super'' anime that wasn't in Toriyama's outline and has no effect on anything else. However, his appearance does somewhat foreshadow the succeeding arc's introduction of a certain other, much less noble body-snatching villain by the name of Goku Black.
* HonorBeforeReason: He wants to fight Goku in a fair match, despite having the ability to absorb Goku's power and become stronger. This puts him at odds with Copy-Gryll who is a CombatPragmatist.
* {{Pride}}: He inherits Vegeta's massive ego, and in a scene mirroring what Majin Vegeta did in the Buu saga, he defies his alleged master's orders and decides to fight Kakarot.
* RootingForTheEmpire: [[invoked]] InUniverse, the real Vegeta sees Copy-Vegeta as an extension of himself and occasionally roots for his doppelganger in his fight against Goku. Of course, since Copy-Vegeta's victory would ensure his template's erasure, Vegeta is content with Goku winning but at least wants his duplicate to give Goku a real challenge for the sake of his own pride. Goku and Copy-Vegeta wonder aloud whose side Vegeta is even on.
* TooSpicyForYogSothoth: Although copied by the "Superhuman Water" of planet Potofu, Copy-Vegeta has the original's indomitable will and refuses to be controlled by the Comméson. However, the clone also has Vegeta's stubbornness and desire for power, so it's still bad news for everyone else.
* TheWorfEffect: As mentioned above in CurbStompBattle, he destroyed Super Saiyan 3 Gotenks in his base form. Copy-Vegeta nonchalantly tanks several strong attacks but sustains no damage whatsoever.

->'''Voiced by (English):''' Ricco Fajardo

A parasite and criminal that Jaco captured. However, Jaco decided to eat some ramen, getting distracted long enough for him to escape.
----
* BodyHorror: He mutates his hosts depending on the time and hate, initially starting with just spikey shoulders and him popping out of their heads. [[spoiler:Extended exposure causes hosts to mutate into Kaiju and even making them grow to giant sizes.]]
* BodySnatcher: Can steal the bodies of people.
* BodySurf: It chooses hosts depending on their power. Jaco suspects that Gohan was his host.
* {{Expy}}: Of [[Anime/DragonBallGT Baby]], the original [[BodySnatcher body stealing]] [[PuppeteerParasite parasite]].
* HereWeGoAgain: Jaco [[spoiler:lets him loose again after eating ramen]].
* MoreThanMindControl: Upon stealing the body of one of the bank robbers, it's implied that he used the host's hatred of Great Saiyaman in order to goad him into fighting him. The same seems to be true for [[spoiler:Barry Kahn]].
* ThePowerOfHate: The more evil the heart of its host is, the more powerful Watagashi becomes. [[spoiler:Barry]] is a host ''so'' vile and black-hearted that he became more powerful than base-form Gohan.
* PuppeteerParasite: Can attach onto people, greatly increasing their strength, making them actually catch Gohan off-guard (he quickly turned the tables though).
* TransformationOfThePossessed: He's able to possess others and shift their forms, the transformation depending on how much evil and hatred the host has in their heart. [[spoiler:When he possesses Barry Khan, Barry turns out to be such a [[HumansAreTheRealMonsters horrible person]] that he first shifts into a large ape-like form, and then a {{Kaiju}}-sized reptilian beast that no longer resembles Barry at all.]]

[[AC:Cerealians]]
[[folder:The Cerealians]]
An alien race native to the planet Cereal that were wiped out by the Saiyans shortly before Kakarot/Son Goku was sent to Earth. Despite resembling humans, they have lifespans of up to 200 years and various powers based on their keen sight.
----
* CharlesAtlasSuperpower: If a Cerealian were to undergo intense training for their entire lives, they could give even the strongest Saiyan a run for their money.
* EdibleThemeNaming: They're named after various grain-based breakfasts.
* {{Foil}}: To the Saiyans. The Saiyans are known for being {{Blood Knight}}s who charge headfirst into a fight and gleefully wipe out populations, while the Cerealians are sociable beings who share their planet with non-native races and their combat abilities are based around sniping rather than brawling. The Saiyans are named after vegetables, while the Cerealians are named after grains.
* HumanAlien: Just like the Saiyans and certain members of Frieza's empire, they look just like regular humans, the only difference being their mismatched eyes.
* LongLived: Cerealians have a lifespan of 200 years.
* OlderThanTheyLook: Just like with the Saiyans, Cerealians age at a slower rate than humans, being able to pass for 20-somethings well into their 50s. Given their extended lifespans, this is to be expected.
* SuperSenses: Their right eye is "evolved" in structure to grant them incredible eyesight, looking like the pupil and iris are fused together into a red spot. Under certain conditions, they can temporarily transform their left eye to match.

[[folder:Granolah]]
!!Granolah (グラノラKan, Guranora)
[[quoteright:286:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/granolah.png]]

A bounty hunter, and the titular main antagonist-turned-protagonist of the Granolah the Survivor Saga. Granolah is the only remaining member of the Cerealians, a race wiped out by the Saiyans long ago. He is introduced stealing OG-73, the infamous android used by Moro, for a bounty offered by the information broker Elec.

He is aided by an AI in his headset called Oatmeel.
----
* ActuallyADoombot: [[spoiler:As it turns out, Granolah had sent a split copy of him after the Saiyans, since he wished to conserve some of his power for the eventual showdown with Frieza. When it turns out that the copy can't handle Goku's Mastered Ultra Instinct, he dispels it and take down Goku while the latter is still surprised.]]
* AntiVillain: At first, his only goal is to avenge his race's destruction by killing Frieza, but his wish to become the strongest in the universe leads him into conflict with Goku and Vegeta as all three of them are played into the Heeters' hands.
* AwesomenessByAnalysis: [[spoiler:Thanks to his eye, Granolah manages to deduce the nature of Ultra Instinct, and by observing Goku's blood flow and muscle movements, he's able to land a blow on his vitals, allowing him to drop the Saiyan to his knees. He also understood that Goku was still not at full power.]]
* BenevolentAlienInvasion: He bears no ill will towards the Sugarians, the naïve alien race that purchased the barren planet Cereal from the Heeters in order to rebuild their own civilisation. However, their existence serves as a painful reminder of Granola's own lost race and he's uncomfortable seeing their glass-domed citadels replace the original cities of the Cerealians on the very same land ruined by the Saiyans years prior. [[spoiler:He has no qualms about stealing the second Dragon Ball from them, but he cannot bear to cause collateral damage to their cities during his battles against the Saiyan duo, showing that he does care for them.]]
* BigBadEnsemble: He shares the spotlight with Elec, while Granolah's major grudge against Frieza and the Saiyans are the driving force of the arc, Elec's mechanizations and plans are as much of a driving force of the conflict.
* BloodKnight: He relishes the opportunity to fight Frieza and the last remaining Saiyans.
* BountyHunter: How Granolah earns his living.
* CastFromLifespan:
** [[spoiler:His wish to become the strongest in the universe would normally not be grantable, but the Cerealian Dragon is able to achieve a similar effect... for a price. Namely, all but three years left of the lifespan he would have originally had, under the logic that he then receives all the power he could have gathered during those years all at once.]]
** [[spoiler: His ultimate attack also drains his life-force, to the point that he was prepared to die by firing it to kill Vegeta, until he was interrupted. When he does fire it at Gas later on, he comments that doing so probably shortened his lifespan even more.]]
* CharacterDevelopment: Granolah starts out as a bounty hunter and assassin with a mind full of vengeance. After defeating Gas he turns pacifist and tells Macki and Oil to look after their brother. Granolah has finally learned his lesson that revenge only leads to more pain and grudges and finally lets go of his grudge against Frieza and the Saiyans and retires from being a bounty hunter so he can start a new life of with Monaito of living in peace and having normal lives with no fighting.
* CombatPragmatist: [[spoiler:When Goku and Vegeta come looking for him, Granolah begins the fight by hurling several deadly projectiles from afar, using his newfound might, special eye, and expertise as a sniper to overwhelm the two Saiyans. Had it not been for a timely Senzu Bean, that opening move alone would've been enough to kill even Goku.]]
* DeathSeeker: [[spoiler:As his battle with Vegeta rages on with no clear victory in sight for either party, Granolah charges up a huge, self-destructive ki blast and declares his willingness to burn his remaining life away just to put the stubborn Saiyan prince down, completely losing sight of his true mission to kill Frieza. His HeroicBSOD moment in the Sugarian city may have influenced his suicidal decision.]]
* DidntThinkThisThrough: Argued by Monaito who tells him that while he may be [[spoiler:the strongest in the universe]] today, he does not think about the dangers in the future. [[spoiler:True enough, the Heeters wish for Gas to be the strongest.]]
* DubNameChange: Oatmeel is renamed Automil in the Spanish translation.
* EdibleThemeNaming: The Cerealians are named after different types of breakfast. In Granolah and Oatmeel's cases, they're named after '''granola''' and '''oatmeal''', respectively. The Cerealian race itself is named after '''cereal'''.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Granolah's eager reaction to Frieza's revival. That he responds positively to this because of the opportunity to kill the tyrant himself, [[{{Hypocrite}} without any regard for the further harm Frieza will cause]], shows just how consumed by the desire for revenge he is.
* EveryoneHasStandards: When Vegeta brings their fight to an evacuated Sugarian city, Granolah puts aside all of his bravado and outright begs Vegeta to take the fight somewhere else. He may be consumed by vengeance, but Granolah doesn't want to damage the Sugarians' home the same way the Saiyans ruined his. This is especially notable as he was willing to brawl in the Cerealian city ruins, albeit reluctantly. [[spoiler:When he sees a lone mother and child cowering from the battle, he has a full-blown HeroicBSOD moment.]]
* EvilIsEasy: Not necessarily evil in action or intent, but resorting to wishing for ultimate power from a dragon is directly at odds with the natural self-improvement philosophies of the protagonists. It's also worth noting that none of the series' antagonists have used the Dragon Balls to directly increase their own power.
* ExpositionFairy: Oatmeel functions as this and TheWatson, questioning and relaying details about Granola's own past to him, creating a few awkward AsYouKnow situations. This raises some questions about why Oatmeel lacks so much information about his own friend/master's history...
* {{Expy}}: Granolah shares many similarities from Toki, the main protagonist of Toriyama's one-shot manga, ''Manga/{{Kintoki}}''. Examples:
** Like Toki, Granolah also has spiked hair, sports a scarf and an outfit with a green-brown aesthetic.
** Toki is a member of the Kinme, a clan who possess golden eyes which make them gifted marksmen, similar to Granolah being a Cerealian - who possess a special red eye that makes them good marksmen.
** Granolah and Toki are amongst the last of their kind.
** Toki has a short lifespan like the rest of his race and is on a quest due to this fact. Granolah is impatiently on a quest due to his short lifespan, due to wishing for power rather than natural reasons.
** Granolah is a bounty hunter who makes money by selling targets to the Heeters, similarly Toki is a hunter who kills Thundras and then sells them to make a living.
* EyeScream: Granolah ends up [[spoiler:having his precious eyes shot out by Gas after being weakened enough.]]
* FatalFlaw: His thirst for revenge on Frieza. While no one would shed a tear for the tyrant, Granolah's first reaction to his resurrection is a rather unhinged glee at the prospect he can finally have revenge rather than horror, and it's the reason he makes a wish that costs most of his lifespan. It also makes him easily manipulated by the Heeters.
* FromNobodyToNightmare: He quickly ascends from a highly skilled but relatively weak mercenary from an almost extinct species to [[spoiler:the mightiest warrior in the universe thanks to a wish made on the Cerealian Dragon Balls.]]
* HeroicBSOD: Flashes back to his own traumatic past after seeing a Sugarian mother and child cowering from him during his fierce battle against Vegeta, realising that he has become no better than the Saiyans that attacked his planet. Unfortunately, it becomes an IgnoredEpiphany as Vegeta goads him over it.
* HeWhoFightsMonsters: Granolah's fight with Vegeta leads to them brawling in a populated city. When Granolah sees a mother and child cowering in fear of him, he's reminded of his own childhood when he and his mother were terrorised by the Saiyans.
* HumanAliens: The Cerealians, and by default Granolah, look no different from regular Earthlings, barring their right eyes which can be used to see from great distances.
* IgnoredEpiphany: When Granolah sees two innocent bystanders giving him the same terrified look he and his mother gave the Saiyans all those years ago, Granolah's reaction is to take it out on Vegeta, blaming the Saiyans for dragging him down to their level, [[NeverMyFault when the whole fight was his idea]].
* LastOfHisKind: Granolah is the last survivor of the Cerealian race, which was wiped out by the Saiyans.
* LockedOutOfTheLoop: Granolah believes the false story that the Saiyans were wiped out by a meteor. He's also unaware of Frieza's revival -- at least, until Elec reveals that to him.
* LongRangeFighter: Granolah's species are natural snipers with a right eye specifically tailored for it. Thus, while knowing how to fight in melee, he prefers to fight at range where he's more comfortable.
* MagicalEye: As a Cerealian, his right eye looks different than normal and can be used to see across great distances. Oatmeel notes that Granolah's ability in particular is a cut above the rest of his kind and makes him an incredible sniper. [[spoiler:After being on the receiving end of a beatdown from a newly-awakened Ultra Ego Vegeta, Granolah's left eye awakens into a second red eye, echoing Vegeta's own newfound strength as he destroys a planet-destroying attack launched his way.]]
* MadeOfIron: He's durable enough to go toe-to-toe with beings that have achieved Ultra Instinct and Ultra Ego. While Goku and Vegeta weren't trying to kill him, the fact that he can take a punch from beings who are on par with gods and angels is a testament to his power.
* NoNonsenseNemesis: When he finally does run into Goku and Vegeta, he tries to take them out as fast as possible. Downplayed, as he does spend a little time talking to them and telling them he's the strongest in the universe, but then immediately tries to kill Goku twice on the grounds that he only needs one of them alive to give him the information he thinks they have.
* OlderThanTheyLook: Granolah witnessed his race being exterminated by Bardock before the events of the story, with the heeters noting that he's currently 50 years old. Despite this, he looks to be in his 20s or early 30s. Chapter 70 of the DBS manga reveals his race can live up to 2 centuries.
* PintSizedPowerhouse: He's been a working as a bounty hunter since he was a young child and he had already earned a fearsome reputation back then.
* PowerAtAPrice: The price being several decades of his expected lifespan.
* PressurePoint: While he has plenty of power in his regular punches, Granolah specializes in hitting vital points, which he can locate through the use of his special eye. It's effective enough to severely rattle Goku and dispels his god-forms whenever he's hit.
* {{Revenge}}: Granolah is consumed by his need to avenge his people.
* RevengeByProxy: He doesn't care a bit that Goku and Vegeta were only children at the time the Cerealians were wiped out and thus had nothing to do with it.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: His name has been alternatively spelt as "Granolah", "Granolla" or simply "Granola".
* SteamPunk: His design was inspired by this aesthetic movement, to emphasise the fact that he is a relic from an old civilisation.
* TookALevelInKindness: After hearing the truth regarding the death of his people, Granolah apologizes to Goku and Vegeta for taking his wrath out on them. He also takes pity on Gas once he's defeated and lets him live.
* TheUnfettered: There's no risk he's unwilling to take in his mission to become the strongest in the universe.
* UnskilledButStrong: As said by Vegeta, Granolah has immense raw power, and does fight with finesse, but he lacks the Saiyans's considerable battle experience, which Vegeta demonstrates when he rattles Granolah with an attack of his own despite being weaker than him.
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: Back when the Cerealians were wiped out, Granolah was unconscious when Bardock rescued him and his mother, only to wake up right when they were hiding from the Heeters. As soon as Granolah saw Bardock's tail, he cried out in surprise, blowing their cover and attracting the Heeters to their hiding place. This moment of shortsightedness led to Muezli being killed.
* VillainHasAPoint: Despite being an antagonist, he has every reason to hate the Saiyans and Frieza, since the former were wiping out entire populations for fun while the latter is a racist, sadistic ego-maniac. His only flaw is taking his wrath out on Goku and Vegeta, who had nothing to do with his race's demise and also see Frieza as an enemy.
* WellIntentionedExtremist: He wishes to exterminate Frieza from the face of the universe, but carelessly throws away his life and friendship with Monaito in exchange for the power boost necessary to defeat the intergalactic tyrant.
* WorldsStrongestMan: He makes a wish using the Cerealian Dragon Balls to become the strongest in the universe so he can get revenge on both Frieza and the Saiyans. Despite lacking both the battle experience and [[spoiler:sacrificing his lifespan to achieve his wish]], he's still powerful enough to go toe-to-toe with Goku and Vegeta.
* YourDaysAreNumbered: [[spoiler:When he makes his wish to be the strongest in the universe, the dragon Toronbo tells him he will have to sacrifice his lifespan by 150 years. This means he now has 3 years left to live]].

!!Muezli
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/granolahs_mom.jpg]]

Granolah's mother who died decades before the events of the Granolah arc.
----
* ActionMom: She does everything she can to protect her son when Freeza's forces arrive to take the planet.
* EdibleThemeNaming: [[FamilyThemeNaming Like her son]], she is named after a breakfast grain, muesli.
* MoralityPet: Her determination to protect her son reminds Bardock of his own wife and son, which inspires a rare moment of compassion in the Saiyan warrior. In spite of himself, Bardock goes to extraordinary lengths to keep Muezli, Granolah and Monaito safe from the other Saiyans.
* PosthumousCharacter: Died during the Saiyan invasion forty years ago, alongside every other Cerealian besides Granolah. [[spoiler:However, she was not murdered by a Saiyan as Granolah was led to believe all his life. In fact, she was saved by none other than Bardock and was actually killed by Elec.]]
* StrongFamilyResemblance: Muezli looks like a [[DistaffCounterpart female version]] of Granolah.

[[AC:Heeters]]
[[folder:In General]]
A [[SiblingsinCrime family of criminals]] led by Elec who employ Granolah as a bounty hunter and have their own plans.
----
* AllForNothing: [[spoiler:Chapter 87 has their ambitions brought to an end. Gas and Elec are killed by Frieza and then Oil and Macki are then conscripted to become Frieza's new cook and waiter.]]
* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: They have blue skin with purple dreadlocks.
* BigBadEnsemble: While Granolah's grudge is a major driving force of the arc, Elec's mechanizations are as much of a driving force of the conflict and he has far bigger plans. [[spoiler:After Granolah realized that Elec was his mother's murderer, Elec becomes the sole BigBad.]]
* BigEater: All four of them can be seen enjoying a large banquet for themselves, showing that they indulge in their vast wealth. Macki, in particular, has a great love for grubrolls.
* BigThinShortTrio: Aside from Elec, the other three siblings fit this mold: Oil is the Big, the only woman Macki is the Thin and the diminutive but powerful Gas is the Short.
* BrainsAndBrawn: Macki, Oil, and Gas are seemingly the brawn to Elec's brain. The former three appear to be enforcers while the latter formulates for them.
* CantKillYouStillNeedYou: While they may loathe Frieza and want to overthrow him, they don't want him ''dead'' due to his status as TheDreaded helping their business remain under their control. [[spoiler:When Granolah reveals he's wished to become the strongest in the universe via Dragon Balls and therefore can potentially kill Frieza and destroy his army, they scheme to have Goku and Vegeta kill him instead.]]
* DreadlockWarrior: They all have dreadlocked hair and are crafty enough to overpower Granolah and the Saiyans.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: Macki and Oil are both shocked and disgusted by Granolah's growing insanity and for using the [[spoiler:Cerealian Dragon Balls to become the strongest fighter]] by giving up most of his lifespan, which they mostly consider to be cheating and downright crazy. Later, Macki and Oil are horrified by Granolah's lack of empathy, the amount of destruction he is causing on Planet Cereal and not caring about the Sugarians and their lives in the process. Macki also disapproves of Elec's methods and becomes more horrified when he removes Gas' headband that causes him to lose control of his senses and starts destroying everything in sight; including them. Macki and Oil are shocked by Elec's harsh words and abuse of Gas and get more disgusted by Elec's lack of care for their brother.
* FamilyThemeNaming: According to Toyotaro, they're siblings. All of them are named after fuel sources.
* FangsAreEvil: The Heeters all wear sharp teeth as jewellery.
* {{Foil}}: In contrast to the Frieza Force's military might, the Heeters gain strength through intelligence and knowledge.
* OlderThanTheyLook: They were in business when Goku was a baby and Vegeta and Granolah were children and all four of them haven't aged since then. Even child-sized Gas hasn't had a growth spurt.
* RememberTheNewGuy: Apparently they have been long time business partners with Frieza, dating back to since the Saiyans were under his employ. However, this is a justified example, as the buying/selling aspect of Frieza's business has never been touched upon until now.
* SiblingsInCrime: They are all siblings who run a powerful criminal syndicate.
* SigilSpam: All of them wear golden emblems with a large 'H' logo somewhere on their outfits. As it turns out, these emblems function as communicators.
* SmugSnake: All four of them are overconfident and elitist.
* TheStarscream: They plot to overthrow their business partner Frieza and take control of his army and resources. [[spoiler: Frieza kills two of them and forces the others to either be his servants or die.]]

%% [[caption-width-right:350:some caption text]]
Leader of the Heeters.
----
* AssholeVictim: Finally gets his comeuppance in Chapter 87. His plans to kill Frieza by using Gas fails and, after being berated by the tyrant that he's always been seen as insignificant, is killed by Frieza with a blast to the face. No one is going to mourn his death. His remaining siblings are more terrified that Frieza might go after them rather than they are horrified by Elec's death.
* BeardOfEvil: Elec has a goatee. He was clean-shaven when Granolah was a child.
* BigBad: Of the "Granolah the Survivor" Saga. Elec had a hand in the genocide of the Cerealians, which galvanized Granolah into becoming an embittered killer. He would then steal the Dragon Balls and make the wish that turned Gas into the "strongest" being in the universe. And by his own admission, this isn't the end of his plan. His ultimate plan was to have Gas kill Frieza and then take his army for himself. If Gas dies in the attempt, an acceptable loss...
* BigBadWannabe: Although he's the main villain of the Granolah Saga, Elec is this in the grand scheme of things since he is a complete wimp compared to the powerhouses of everyone ''else'' in the universe. He doesn't have a backup plan in the event that Gas ''loses'', reduced to snivelly bartering for his own life or hightailing it out of the area. Frieza reveals that he always knew that Elec was going to try and usurp him at some point, letting him run about as the tyrant exploits Elec's resources instead. Once Elec loses his use, he's promptly fired, literally, courtesy of an energy blast to the face.
* BigBrotherBully: Elec is verbally abusive towards his siblings; especially Gas. Elec takes it further during the final battle against the Saiyans when he grabs an injured Gas by the neck and cruelly scolds him for his failure and forces Gas to push his power further even if it kills him. Chapter 87 ups the abuse; he slaps Macki in the face after she tries to stop Elec from pushing Gas and then callously reveals that Gas is going to die from the wish of being the "strongest in the universe". When Gas is understandably shocked, Elec screams at Gas to ''continue'' fighting, calling him "worthless". The rest of the Heeter siblings are devastated by Elec's lack of concern, finally seeing him as the monster he truly is.
* BreakingOldTrends: In stark contrast to previous series' [[BigBad Big Bads]], Elec is a collected individual who keeps his calm in even dire situations for him. Even the more calculated villains were prone to panic or concern or losing their temper when something didn't go their way, while Elec simply opts to regroup and come up with a new strategy when he runs into a road bump.
* ClassyCravat: Elec wears one to distinguish himself as the head of the organization.
* ContrastingSequelAntagonist: Compared to the previous Dragon Ball villains who are all fighters and warriors, that want to become stronger to rule the universe, as well as some of them leading their own armies. Elec is not much of a fighter and relies on intelligence and knowledge to gain power. While some past main villains have armies or groups who are just allies or pawns to them, Elec’s group, The Heeters, are a family of criminals who are named after fuel sources.
* ControlFreak: As the extreme narcissist that he is, Elec is obsessed with collecting infinite knowledge and intel and wants to be the only one who makes decisions about anything. He is also very bossy and controlling towards his siblings and prefers they only follow his orders and doesn't like anyone questioning his goals or ideals.
* DidntSeeThatComing: Just because someone is the "strongest" in the universe doesn't mean that they will ''remain'' the "strongest", as sheer grit and determination can sometimes overcome a seemingly "invincible" opponent. This is what happens to Gas as the Heeter takes on the combined might of Goku, Vegeta and Granolah and ends up losing. And it would have been all for naught anyway, since Frieza became ''many'' leagues stronger by training "outside" the universe in the Room of Spirit and Time, thus becoming exempt from the wish to make Gas the "strongest", allowing the tyrant to murder Gas in one blow.
* DirtyCoward: This is what Elec is deep down. He may boast that he has the smarts and is the leader of the group but he is too cowardly and lazy to do any of the heavy lifting himself, preferring that his siblings, especially Gas, enforce the muscle. The only time he attacks anyone with his ray gun is when they are too weak to properly defend themselves, like he did when he murders Granolah's mother by surprise or when he shoots Granolah from behind after he is disabled and weakened by Gas first. He even has the nerve to boast that powerful warriors like Goku, Vegeta and Granolah are nothing compared to the Heeters' power (he includes himself), when really, it's Gas that's the actual danger. In Chapter 87, Elec tries to run away after Gas's penultimate defeat and when the latter is killed by Frieza, tries talking his way out, to no avail. Frieza rightly calls him out on this, citing ''Elec'' as the "weakest" of the Heeters.
* TheDon: He's the boss of a vast criminal syndicate, both feared and respected by his subordinates. The respect soon goes away by his own doing.
* {{Gaslighting}}: Elec is actually the ''weakest'' of the Heeters but he's so emotionally abusive and manipulative towards his siblings that he managed to convince them, including the person in question, that ''Gas'' was the weakest instead. So it comes as a shock to Oil and Macki when Frieza reveals the truth, before he's blasted to oblivion.
* {{Guyliner}}: He wears it to emphasise his long, feminine eyelashes.
* HateSink: Elec is a heartless scumbag and easily the most despicable of the Heeters. He is a horrible excuse of a big brother who constantly gaslights and abuses his siblings into serving him, especially Gas by taking advantage of his loyalty and trust. He even manipulates Granolah into doing his dirty work and plans to kill him when he is no longer useful. Elec orchestrated the extinction of the Cerealian race and killed Granolah's mother Muezli in cold blood. He even goes as far to frame Bardock and Frieza for Muezli's murder just to corrupt Granolah and trick him into becoming a bounty hunter for him and take advantage of his trust. Elec also blackmails Monaito into keeping his mouth shut or he and Gas will kill him if he tells the truth to Granolah.
* HatedByAll: By the end of the arc Elec has alienated all of his allies. Granolah never liked him to begin with and finding out he was being targeted for assassination only made things worse. Oil and Macki were horrified to learn that Elec knowingly threw Gas under the bus. Gas likewise was shaken once he found out Elec had sent him to his death. Frieza knew all along that Elec wasn't trustworthy and blew him to bits after bringing him down a peg.
* {{Hypocrite}}: Elec claims that intel is superior to strength, but he still relies on enforcers to carry out his ambitions. Frieza points out that he's actually the weakest of his family, so Elec's whole philosophy casts a pretty unflattering light on him.
* InTheBack: After Granolah loses use of ''both'' his arms and is blinded by Gas, Elec shoots him in the back, with Granolah too weak to defend himself properly.
* {{Irony}}: He claims that intelligence vastly outweighs aspects such as strength, but all of his plans shown so far primarily rely on overpowering the opponent through the raw strength of others.
* ItsAllAboutMe: Beneath his claim of wanting Gas to be the "strongest" in the universe, Elec ultimately cares about only himself and his own goals to control everything. Chapter 87 shows how very little Elec thinks of his siblings, abandoning them to try and save his own skin.
* JerkWithAHeartOfJerk: Elec seems like he wants to make Gas the strongest in the universe so they can overthrow Frieza and rule the universe together. But Elec only sees his siblings as tools and shows no real love towards them and is willing to sacrifice them to achieve their dreams and secretly wants all the knowledge, intel and universe for himself.
* KnowledgeBroker: Elec is a firm believer that intelligence and knowledge are true power. His {{Hypocrite}} entry says otherwise...
** And in the end, it turns out that Frieza knew everything the Heeters were planning, so Elec's a failure in his own field.
* LackOfEmpathy: Elec has absolutely no love or care for anyone but himself. He doesn't care that using the Cerealian Dragon Balls could shorten Gas' lifespan and is willing to endanger the Sugarians and Planet Cereal just to kill Goku and the others. Elec cruelly brushes off Macki's warnings as he is willing to sacrifice Gas' life just to kill Granolah, Monaito, the saiyans and later Frieza just to achieve their goals. Elec forces Gas to push his limits further even if it ages him rapidly with no care for his well-being at all. When Gas starts losing the battle against Goku, Vegeta and Granolah, Elec plans to selfishly abandon him and leave him for dead if he fails. Seeing Gas literally decay before his eyes does nothing for him, as Elec callously screams at Gas go and kill for ''his'' sake.
* LazyBum: Elec claims that fighting is SoLastSeason and that gathering intelligence makes him superior, but he still relies on warriors to do his dirty work and is eventually revealed to be the weakest of the Heeters. What's more, it turns out Frieza has gathered more intel than Elec without drawing attention to himself.
* LoopholeAbuse:
** When Elec wished for Gas to become the Strongest in the universe, it was with his PowerLimiter on, meaning that Gas could grow ''even stronger than that'' with the headband out of the way. This allows the Heeters to regain the upper hand when Granolah initially defeats Gas.
** This ends up being his undoing as well. His wish does not take into account beings outside of Universe 7. When Frieza returns from his training in the Room of Space and Time, he's on a whole different level than Gas.
* ManipulativeBastard: He and his siblings had nothing against Granolah before, but when he starts plotting to kill Frieza and his army, Elec hatches a scheme to have Goku and Vegeta wipe him out. In particular, He successfully fooled all three into conflict.
* NiceJobFixingItVillain: It turns out he called Frieza over to Planet Cereal and planned to have Gas kill him, unaware that Frieza had been off-universe training and had become stronger than ever. When Frieza arrives, he effortlessly kills Gas and Elec.
* NoBodyLeftBehind: Frieza wipes him from existence with one energy blast to his face, after Elec futilely tries punching the former when the tyrant rightly calls out how much Elec ''sucks.''
* NonActionBigBad: As the brains behind the operation, he does not usually sully his own hands in battle. He only attacks with his ray gun when he's sure the victim can't defend themselves anymore, such as murdering Granolah's mother by surprise, attacking a tired Bardock after his battle with Gas and shooting Granolah in the back after he's weakened.
* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Has this deservedly given to him by Frieza, telling the arrogant scumbag that he's not as smart as he thinks he is, even calling him the "weakest" Heeter.
--> '''Frieza''': ''Let me guess, you meant to have Gas kill me. I have bad news for you then. It looks like Gas is dust in the wind. I've known all about your ambitions these past 40 years. I knew, and let you scurry around, all while exploiting you for my army's benefit. Why, there isn't a single thing in this universe I'm not privy to. For example, the fact that the weakest of the Heeters is'' '''you...'''
* TheReveal: Frieza reveals that since the very beginning, ''Elec'' was always the ''weakest'' of the Heeters, not Gas. This information takes Oil and Macki by surprise, before Elec is then killed.
* SmugSmiler: He always has a confident, assured smirk on his face. It's only wiped from his face when he's taken by surprise, like Goku teleporting Gas off planet, depriving Elec of his "muscle". He loses the smugness altogether when Goku, Vegeta and Granolah work together to finally take Gas down. Chapter 87 does away with this entirely, as his plans go up in smoke with Gas's murder at Frieza's hands, shortly before his ''own'' death.
* SmugSnake: He thinks he's smarter than everyone else and claims that his plans will drive him to run the universe, even from Frieza. Frieza reveals that he was only ever a pawn to exploit, killing him after having no further use for the arrogant Heeter.
* SoLastSeason: Elec declares that ruling people through might like Frieza is a method of the past, and ruling through knowledge is the way to go. However, as seen in his {{Hypocrite}} entry, forcing Gas, his main enforcer, to do all his dirty work, demonstrates that he doesn't practice what he preaches.
* TheStoic: Outside of being a bit of a SmugSmiler and having moments of mild surprise, Elec doesn't really emote in contrast to his siblings or his enemies. Starts to become subverted over time as his plans for Gas starts falling apart, all the way to his death.
* ThisCannotBe: Elec's face is screaming this as Gas is finally defeated, despite him being the "strongest" in the universe. Chapter 87 enforces this harder, as Frieza reveals that he always knew Elec as the scheming little weakling that he is and is blasted to hell by the tyrant.
* UnwittingPawn: While he sees Frieza and his army as this, it's actually the other way around. Frieza had already caught on to Elec's ambitions but chose to let him do as he pleased as he was no real threat at the time and still proved himself useful.
* VillainousBreakdown: Breaks down from his calm behavior to manic ranting when it becomes clear that Gas is going to lose, foregoing all pretense of caring about him at all.
* WalkingSpoiler: The revelation that he is not only the real BigBad of the saga, but also that he's responsible for killing Granolah's mother, are major spoilers.
* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: Turns out that Frieza had long since caught on to Elec's schemes to overthrow him, but chose not to do anything since Elec was still useful. But once he's not...
* YouKilledMyFather: Elec, ''not'' a Saiyan, killed Granolah's mother Muezli, and framed Bardock for it.

Elec's chief enforcer.
----
* AlasPoorVillain: Gas would do anything for the sake of his siblings, especially Elec. Which makes it all the more frustrating and heartbreaking when Elec shouts out loud that he only ever saw Gas as a means to an end, not an equal. As Gas decays away, Elec is callously screaming at him to at least kill Goku and Vegeta before he dies, citing that Gas is "worthless scum" for wasting time having a breakdown at his current state. Gas himself is shaking from despair all the while.
* ArchEnemy: To Goku and Granolah. The former for his father sharing the same face and beating him in the past. The latter for "taking" Elec's attention away from him.
* BerserkButton: Beneath his stoic demeanour, he has a few. Since he was originally the weakest of the Heeters, he resents any implication that he is in any way not up to the task, resulting in a one-sided rivalry with Granolah. Similarly, any reminders of the time he was nothing but a scared, powerless runt get under his skin (reminiscent of Jiren). Since Elec believed in him when nobody else would, he has complete UndyingLoyalty to his brother and Goku rattles him by implying that Elec may not have Gas's best interests at heart, indirectly comparing him to [[CainAndAbel Raditz]] to prove the point.
* BlackEyesOfEvil: His final decayed form has this trope as a demonstration of how far his sanity has fallen. It's implied that it's not that his eyes turned black, but rather his body has decayed so much that his eyes have shrunk and what we're seeing are his ''eye sockets''.
* BlessedWithSuck: Gas becomes the "strongest" in the universe thanks to the Cerealian Dragonballs but in exchange for all that power, he had to give up a majority of his lifespan. The longer he does battle and the more he is pushed beyond his limits, the more powerful he becomes. However, his life burns out even faster as a result and eventually, this starts taking a physical toll on his body, aging and looking more emaciated, until he becomes a walking zombie that ignores grievous wounds. Vegeta denounces this as a curse rather than a blessing.
--> '''Vegeta''': ''It's like a curse...Cursed to be the universe's strongest...''
* BloodKnight: Starts developing into this after Elec forces Gas to master his true full power. Compared to before where he tries to murder his enemies as quickly as possible, he starts ''prolonging'' his battle with Goku in order to test his new abilities, preferring to torture Goku by hitting him with debris from the environment or holding him underwater in an attempt to drown the Saiyan.
* BodyHorror: As his battle with the heroes nears its end, Gas's appearance becomes more and more twisted and corpse-like, with visible bits of decayed muscles and bones appearing as he takes more and more damage, until he inevitably falls apart after Frieza impales him.
* ButtMonkey: During their cat-and-mouse chase across the universe with Instant Transmission, Goku inadvertently makes a complete laughing stock out of Gas. Over the course of a chapter, Gas just happens to teleport into the path where Monaka was dumping the contents of his dump truck, then he just happens to teleport into the Galactic King's bathtub, then Goku just happens to teleport to the Galactic Prison where Gas is mocked by the inmates for having pissed himself once, and finally Gas is then stranded on a faraway planet with only Whis and Oracle Fish for company by Goku. Being TheComicallySerious, Gas takes none of this humiliation gracefully.
* CarFu: As Gas engages Goku in their final battle, Gas telekinetically throws trains in Goku's path, forcing the Saiyan to dodge or endure the locomotives barrelling towards him. They even fight atop the vehicles for a while.
* CastFromHitPoints: As Gas approaches his peak, his body visibly ages from the stress. The previously bloodthirsty Granolah actually takes pity on him once he's defeated and tells Elec to take care of his brother. At his absolute peak, well, [[BodyHorror it's not pretty.]]
* CrazyJealousGuy: Platonic example. He views himself as all the muscle the Heeters need and he dislikes Granolah for stealing Elec's attention. Once he becomes the new Strongest in the Universe, he dismisses Granolah as unnecessary.
* CruelAndUnusualDeath: Gas does not notice his aging appearance and mangled body until he overhears Elec point out his impending death. Frieza then shows up and then ''drives his arm through the Heeter's torso''. From the look of shock and pain on Gas's face, he suffered in complete agony until he finally decays to nothing but bones and dust.
* DavidVersusGoliath: He battled Bardock, an unremarkable low-class Saiyan warrior on Planet Cereal in the past. Despite being the stronger combatant, Gas somehow lost and the defeat still haunts him, though we do not know the full circumstances yet. HistoryRepeats as the heroes find themselves up against him in the present, now as the Strongest in the Universe, with no clear hope of victory.
* DentedIron: By the end of his fight against Goku, Vegeta and Granolah, Gas is mummified and parts of him are breaking off. The heroes are freaked out that he's able to throw a punch despite having lost a chunk of tissue from his arm.
* DesecratingTheDead: After Gas dissolves to nothing but his skeleton, Frieza heartlessly stomps and crushes the Heeter's skull beneath his feet.
* DragonInChief: Elec is their leader, but Gas is far stronger than him. Particularly after Elec wishes Gas was the strongest in the universe.
* DropTheHammer: He generates a comically huge mallet to thwack Goku from behind at one point.
* EvilCounterpart:
** From his appearance to his hatred of an underdog that could rival his power, Gas is easily one to Vegeta. Remember that when Vegeta was at his most villainous, he tried to gain power through unearned means (Saiyan physiology and Babidi's magic), much like Gas does when he decides to deal with Granolah and the remaining Saiyans. His ultimate power coming at the expense of his physical wellbeing is also akin to Vegeta's Ultra Ego. Finally, both die undignified deaths at the hands of Frieza.
** His PowerLimiter being removed reveals he could be considered one for Broly, as both have immense natural power that sends him into a bulked up berserker state.
* EvilMakesYouUgly: Gas started out with a cute appearance (mildly offset by his perpetual scowling) and upon gaining a power-up he looks semi-handsome. Then Elec removes his restraints and he turns into a raging mass of muscle with horns erupting from his head before overexerting himself to the point where he ages prematurely and becomes emaciated. His last moments has him as a decaying, shambling zombie.
* EyeBeams: Of a sort. Gas' first action after mastering his full power as the strongest in the universe is to glare at Goku and Vegeta while they are weakened. Gravity suddenly increases for the two Saiyans and if they were to lose concentration for an instant, they would be crushed by the technique's sheer power. Luckily, Goku was able to break free after Vegeta shares the last of his energy with him.
* FromNobodyToNightmare: He used to be the weakest of the Heeters and was implied to be rather wimpy and cowardly. By modern day, he's the strongest by a huge margin even before becoming the WorldsStrongestMan. Turns out that he was gaslighted by his own brother; Elec was actually the ''weakest''.
* HeroKiller: He killed Monaito by surprise with a energy beam.
* HornedHumanoid: After Elec removes his power limiter, he grows horns on the side of his head which resemble his headband, which he retains once he fully masters his power.
* InstantExpert: {{Averted}}. Like Granolah, Gas gains a plethora of new techniques once he is wished to be the strongest in the universe, including Hakai and Instant Transmission, but they are less refined due to his lack of experience. Even Granolah, who only had these powers slightly longer, already has more finesse with these moves than Gas, which turns the tide of their battle. Goku also flexes his superior mastery of Instant Transmission by leading Gas on a teleporting chase across the universe before leaving him stranded on a distant planet.
* ImplacableMan: Keep coming for the lives of Granolah, Goku, Vegeta and Monaito even as an almost mummified zombie. He ''does'' take damage from their attacks, enough to expose his decaying muscles and bones, but he simply doesn't even care and keep attacking them anyway, diving through his own beam or ''punching Goku with his broken arm''.
* LeanAndMean: Elec's wish for Gas to become the strongest also causes the boy to spontaneously grow to adult size. In his new form, Gas is tall, lanky and exceptionally cruel with his newfound powers. He briefly bulks up massively when his PowerLimiter is removed, once he regains his sense of self he condenses back down and reverts to his adult form, now with all the power he had in that form. His final moments see him becoming a horrifying variant of this trope, relentlessly attacking even as he's decayed into a zombie-like withered state.
* MarathonBoss: It takes a long, hard fought battle through many transformations with the combined forces of Vegeta, Goku, Granolah, Oatmeel and Monaito to finally take down Gas after the former three fought him multiple times. Until they don't and he get back up a little while longer to ultimately be put down by Frieza.
* MindOverMatter: Another one of Gas' techniques is to grab objects, whether existing or generated, and hurl them at his opponents. They fly at such high speeds that it's hard to dodge.
* NoNonsenseNemesis: After Goku, Vegeta, and Granolah nearly beat each other to death, Elec orders the newly empowered Gas to kill them before they can recover because they're a major threat. Gas also shows this, trying to finish the trio as quickly as possible.
* NotSoStoic: Beneath his emotionless exterior, Gas is very insecure about his strength and his "stoic badass" attitude is his way of overcompensating for his past failures.
* PerpetualFrowner: He always has a serious scowl on his face and never smiles, unlike his more affable siblings. This starts to become subverted over time, as he starts to revel in his newfound status as the "strongest in the universe" and sadistically tortures Goku, all with a smug smile. And as he is reduced to skin and bones, he always has a deranged grin on his face.
* PintSizedPowerhouse: According to Elec, Gas is the strongest warrior among them. He's also the shortest of the band, even shorter than his sister Macki. He rapidly grows in height after Elec's wish to Toronbo.
* PowerLimiter: That headband on his head controls his power and sanity, meaning that its removal will drive him insane and more powerful as well. Since the wish to become the Strongest in the universe was made with the headband ''on'', this allows Gas to tap into further heights of power once it's removed and he's properly controlled himself.
* PowerAtAPrice: Like Granolah, Gas becomes the strongest in the universe in exchange for a majority of his lifespan. Unlike Granolah, he ends paying the ultimate price. And sadly for Gas, he doesn't know that his newfound power will end up killing him until it's revealed accidentally by Elec.
* TheQuietOne: Gas is the least talkative of his siblings. This changes after his power-up and he becomes more of a boastful SmugSuper.
* RapidAging: After losing to True Ultra Instinct Goku and tapping into his full reserves, Gas's body becomes decrepit but no less dangerous. Tapping into more and more burns away his very life force until he is essentially a walking corpse. Chapter 87 has him decay to dust after Frieza deals a mighty blow.
* SpontaneousWeaponCreation: Gas showcases the ability to spawn meticulous ki weapons after Elec wishes him to be the strongest in the universe. His arsenal includes a morningstar mace, a four-pronged trident, an axe, a shield, a rope-dart, and a large mallet. According to Monaito, Gas always had these powers, even before the wish.
* SquishyWizard:
** In his "final transformed state", Gas becomes even more powerful than he was before, being able to overpower Ultra Instinct Omen Goku when he previously wasn't able to. He also has new powers such as being able to generate giant energy constructs of his arms and legs. But thanks to the toll the power-up took on his body, he doesn't seem to be anywhere near as durable as he was before, such that a kick to the gut by Goku was enough to keel him over.
** It's even worse once his body's reduced to an emaciated, zombie-like state. While he's still as powerful as ever, Goku and Vegeta's hits are literally causing his body to fall apart.
* StrippedToTheBone: After Frieza kills him, Gas's body starts to decay until all that's left is a skeleton, which then proceeds to turn to dust.
* SuperSpeed: As expected for the new strongest in the universe, he demonstrates ridiculous speed and reflexes. His best feat of speed, however, is crossing an entire galaxy in only 20 minutes without teleportation, just blasting at full throttle through the vacuum of space.
* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: It's fair to say that his weak retorts to the Galactic Bandits' heckling [[BadLiar convinced absolutely nobody]].
-->'''Gas:''' I DID NOT WET MYSELF! It was only a few drops because I had been holding it in for so long!
* ThisCannotBe: During the final stages of his battle with Goku and Vegeta, he overhears the ''price'' that comes with being the "strongest" in the universe. He stops to contemplate his incoming death and as he's dealing with the shock, he's yelled at by Elec to at least go down fighting before he kicks the bucket, citing him as "worthless". This causes Gas to realize that Goku was right: his brother really ''didn't'' care about him.
* TorsoWithAView: How an empowered Frieza eventually does him in.
* UndyingLoyalty: Gas is unshakably loyal to Elec and serves his will unquestioningly. This starts to waver towards the final days of his life but before anything else can happen, Frieza shows up and kills him.
* UngratefulBastard: After he is spared from death by Granolah as detailed above, Gas returns his kindness by mortally wounding Monaito and gleefully asks Granolah if he's still willing to stick to his "soft-hearted claim".
* TheUnreveal: Gas is the only one who doesn't fight Granolah, which leaves his capabilities in the dark. We do eventually see him take action after becoming the new Strongest in the Universe, but we still have yet to see his natural battle power. And with his death, we never will.
* UnskilledButStrong: His ascension to the strongest mortal in Universe 7 has given Gas an arsenal of powers that he doesn't fully grasp because of his inexperience with them, giving Granolah the edge in their bout because of his longer experience with them comparatively. While Gas is quick to start becoming StrongAndSkilled, he still loses his first round with Granolah because of this, at least until Elec removes his PowerLimiter. He goes completely berserk at first, but once he regains his sanity, he now has access to his full power on top of having learned to become more skilled.
** This trope comes back to bite him once again in his battle against Goku, who is much weaker and unable to even tap into his full power. Thanks to having ''years'' to hone Instant Transmission, Goku leads Gas across the universe in a wild goose chase before dumping him on a random planet and heading back to Cereal by repeatedly using Instant Transmission fast enough that Gas is unable to lock-on to his Ki before he’s out of his range. Gas's lacking mastery of the technique forces him to fly back across the galaxy to return, giving the heroes time to gather and find a way to beat him. In fact, Gas would not even have been able to guess where Goku ''was'' without Whis's directions.
* VillainousBreakdown: As the fight between Gas and the Saiyans approaches its climax, Gas hears about his impending death from Elec. Noticing his haggard appearance in a nearby lake, Gas is shocked to his core, as he now wrestles with his ''very short'' and ''rapidly dwindling'' mortality. Gas is rocked even further when Elec callously demonstrates that he ''never'' loved him. The final straw is Frieza showing up and this drives Gas to full despair as he tries attacking the tyrant, only to die instantly.
* WalkingSpoiler: The revelation that ''he'' - not Granolah - is the antagonist Goku and Vegeta have to defeat, is a major spoiler.
* WithGreatPowerComesGreatInsanity: Throughout the battle, Gas becomes more bloodthirsty as he draws on more and more power. Chapter 87 has him grinning like a demented demon as he starts decaying like a zombie and ignores his wounds. He only comes back to sanity when Elec reveals that he's ''dying''.
* WorldsStrongestMan: Elec wishes for Gas to be the strongest in the universe and Gas proves it by dominating Granolah and Goku. Since this wish came after Granolah's, Gas is far stronger than Granolah. Even after Goku and Vegeta power up to Ultra Instinct and Ultra Ego respectively, he can still keep up with them despite the power of their strongest divine forms. This power is not without a cost; drawing on own his life force ages Gas considerably and eventually, he'll die. Not that he knew about this. Or have it be told to him...
* YourDaysAreNumbered: It's strongly implied that Gas sacrificed even more life span than Granolah to gain a power that can surpass him. In Chapter 85, his "final transformation" made him look like an old man. Confirmed in Chapter 87, as drawing on more power has Gas hanging on by a thread; Elec reveals that the wish will essentially kill him in time. Gas is shocked to hear this, not knowing that he was aging and decaying away until he pauses to take a good look at himself.

* BigOlEyebrows: Macki has quite prominent eyebrows, contrasted against Gas and Oil, who have bald Neanderthal ridges.
* DarkChick: Macki is the only female member of the Heeters and plays the damsel in distress without drawing suspicion.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Macki truly cares about the well-being of her brothers; especially Gas. She would sometimes protest against Elec's ideas of putting Gas' life in danger just to make him the "strongest" fighter. Macki seems to be the closest to Oil as they love hanging out together and are very supportive and protective of each other. It is subverted with Elec, as Macki questions her loyalty to him from time to time and hates his cruelty and abuse towards her, Gas and Oil. [[spoiler:When Frieza kills Elec, she's more terrified of the tyrant than she is horrified by her brother's death.]]
* EvenEvilHasStandards: Macki doesn't agree with Elec's insane methods and is the only one who is against the idea of using the Cerealian Dragon Balls to make Gas stronger that could endanger his life, like Granolah did with his wish. Macki also gets disgusted by Zuno's lecherous tendencies and hates Elec's lack of empathy and abuse towards Gas.
* GenkiGirl: She's cute, flamboyant and excitable, which would almost make her likeable if she wasn't a leading member of a powerful criminal organisation.
* OnlySaneMan: She is this to the Heeters and the only one to have a caring side and redeemable traits.
* RedemptionRejection: Macki and Oil eventually realize that Elec is a horrible brother and turn against him, but instead of parting on friendly terms with the heroes, they [[spoiler: opt to work for Frieza]].

* TheSmurfettePrinciple: Macki is the only woman in the group.
* TrademarkFavouriteFood: Grubrolls. She's excited to ask Zuno where the tastiest in the universe can be found.
* WoundedGazelleGambit: As part of Elec's plan to lure the surviving Saiyans to Planet Cereal, Macki deceives Chi-Chi and Bulma with a ruse that she and Oil are being terrorised by Granolah, and beg for their husbands' help in defeating the monster. Despite their suspicions, Goku and Vegeta agree to accompany Macki to the planet in order to face the man claiming to be the Strongest in the Universe.

[[folder:Monaka]]
!!'''Monaka (モナカ)'''
[[quoteright:186:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/monaka_dbs.png]]
->'''Voiced by (Japanese):''' Creator/MasamiKikuchi\\
'''Voiced by (English):''' Creator/DamanMills\\
'''Voiced by (Latin American Spanish):''' Roberto Mendiola

Monaka is a deliveryman whom the God of Destruction Beerus uses as motivation for Goku and Vegeta to get stronger. Beerus claims that he is the strongest fighter of Universe 7. During the Champa saga, he was chosen as the last member to fight in the tournament.

* AccidentalHero:
** At the conclusion of the Potaufeu Saga, [[spoiler: Monaka accidentally steps on the core of Comméson just as he wakes up from his coma, which acts as a catalyst for Copy-Vegeta's defeat and gives Goku the opportunity to finish him off.]]
** At the end of the Champa Arc, [[spoiler:while his punch didn't even phase Hit, it gave Hit the opportunity to throw the fight out of respect for Goku. Because of that, he technically won the tournament for Universe 7]].
* TheAce: Beerus claims that Monaka is this, citing him as the strongest mortal in Universe 7 who gave him a much better fight than Goku. He tells members of his team to do rock-paper-scissors to chose who will fight in what order, but says that Monaka will go last since is the 'ace'. [[TheDreaded Beerus also seems to be afraid of him]], going out of his way to keep Monaka happy. [[spoiler: It's revealed by Whis that Monaka isn't that strong and is actually an amateur fighter who Beerus builds up to [[MotivationalLie motivate]] Goku and Vegeta into becoming stronger]].
* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: According to Beerus, Goku is the second strongest opponent he's fought. This guy is [[spoiler:just an amateur brought in to motivate Goku and Vegeta to get stronger]].
* AsskickingLeadsToLeadership: Monaka is officially the team captain for U7 during the Champa Saga since he is the strongest fighter in U7 according to Beerus. [[spoiler: It's all a big MotivationalLie. He's actually quite weak and faints at the sight of fighting]].
* BerserkButton: Beerus claims that anyone who interrupts his concentration whether friend or foe gets annihilated in an instant, even going as far as saying he destroyed a whole planet because of this. [[spoiler: This was just a lie to prevent Goku from finding out that Monaka is actually really weak]].
* BewareTheSillyOnes: He's Krillin's size with giant nipples and wears a leotard, yet Whis claims even Beerus would have a hard time stopping him if he chooses to go all out. It's saying something when [[TheDreaded Beerus]], [[PhysicalGod God of Destruction]], tries not to anger Monaka, and beats Goku when the latter tries to test Monaka's strength by punching him. [[spoiler: Subverted when it's revealed that he isn't strong and is a coward who faints at anything that surprises him.]]
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Whis describes the people of Planet Wagashi, Monaka's home planet, as this. They are kind and docile, but their true power is such that even Beerus could have a hard time with them. [[spoiler: Whis is lying, they are probably just as weak as him.]]
* {{Courier}}: This is his occupation. [[spoiler:Beerus puts a huge pile of gold in his truck as thanks for being the MotivationalLie for Goku]]. Chi-Chi is impressed that Monaka works on top of being very powerful. That is before [[spoiler: she learns, along with everyone else minus Goku, that Monaka isn't strong]].
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: Goku tried testing his "power" by sucker-punching him in the face (which resulted in Monaka not evading the attack along with showing signs of physical damage and putting Monaka close to tears). Piccolo states that he can't even sense his power level as well. Additionally, according to Whis, Monaka mentally "fainted after seeing Goku's Kamehameha in the first battle", but with all of this, Beerus still states that he's the team ace and will incinerate anyone, friend or foe, who interrupts him while "meditating". [[spoiler:This ends up all being false, since Monaka is actually a weakling who faints at anything that remotely surprises him.]]
* DullSurprise: When it isn't related to fighting, this tends to be Monaka's default expression towards everything.
* {{Foil}}: Is one to Dr. Rota from Universe 6. Both are [[JokeCharacter Joke Characters]] who oddly stand out for their respective universes [[spoiler:and aren't really that powerful]]. However, while Dr. Rota was able to at least grapple with Prum, Monaka is [[spoiler:barely able to lay a dent on anybody]]. Plus, both are somewhat [[AccidentalHero Accidental Heroes]] in a way, while Monaka [[spoiler:has accidentally won the Universe 6 & 7 Tournament (due to Hit's disinterest in the prize)]], Dr. Rota indirectly helped Vegeta beat Prum, as he was able to NoSell almost all Ki attacks. Plus, Monaka showed up for the first tournament and didn't show up for the second one, while Dr. Rota showed up for the second one and not the first one. Lastly, both characters are voiced by the same voice actor.
* EdibleThemeNaming: Besides its in-universe meaning, his name is also the name of a Japanese dessert similar to a sandwich cookie.
* {{Gonk}}: Just ''look'' at him!
* JokeCharacter: [[spoiler: He's not as strong as is claimed,]] and he's only there just as a way to motivate Goku and Vegeta to become stronger and to win the tournament. He may or may not be strong in his own right, unlike most examples of this trope.
* KarmicJackpot: [[spoiler:He's actually a JokeCharacter, and him going against Hit was akin to an ant fighting a steamroller. That said, he still fought, gave Hit a chance to throw the fight, and, to reward his services, Beerus pays him a literal truckload of treasure]].
* LovableCoward: While he's very nervous and rather cowardly during the tournament and when Goku expresses his desire to fight him, it's very hard to blame him for being so nervous considering that [[spoiler: he's just a delivery man with no powers who just got dragged in a game between gods and who finds himself forced to face PhysicalGods infinitely stronger than him]].
* MeaningfulName: His name translates to "He of Great Ponta (He with the big nipples)."
* MotivationalLie: His true purpose. Beerus [[spoiler:made up the story about him being the strongest fighter he ever met]] to motivate Goku and Vegeta into becoming stronger and better able to win the tournament. [[spoiler:The lie ends up backfiring since Buu fails the written test, leaving Beerus with only three capable fighters.]] Later, [[spoiler:Beerus in a]] Monaka [[spoiler:costume]] fights Goku and hilariously, [[spoiler:when Goku sees the Monaka costume and Monaka himself, he believes]] that Monaka has splitting abilities similar to Majin Buu.
* MrExposition: Brings up the fact to see the Unnamed Planet and the surrounding Super Dragon Balls from a 3D perspective, [[spoiler:allowing Whis to figure out that the planet was indeed the final Super Dragon Ball]].
* NervousWreck: He's so nervous he passes out by the sight of Goku's Kamehameha and Vegeta's Super Saiyan Blue aura. When it was his turn fighting Hit, he nervously walked into the arena (and dropped on the ground as well). He [[spoiler:only won against Hit because Hit was returning the favor of Goku withdrawing ... if Hit didn't find Goku that much of a worthy opponent, Monaka would have most probably been utterly obliterated. Monaka also gets very nervous when Beerus tells him that he still wants to use him to motivate Goku further after the tournament]]. Additionally, [[spoiler:Monaka had a panic attack when Goku was dragging him to go spar with him]].
* NiceGuy: He's a pretty good sport about Goku sucker punching him in the face for no reason. In the manga, Whis states that he is polite and gentle in general. When it doesn't involve fighting strong opponents [[spoiler:that he knows he would lose against]], Monaka is pretty nice to the other characters.
* NoodleIncident: As of right now, we don't know what caused Beerus to have trouble with Monaka. [[spoiler:Although this is probably just a story Beerus made up to motivate Goku]].
* OvershadowedByAwesome: [[spoiler: He's a lot weaker than Beerus claims]], but he still manages to take a punch from Saiyan Beyond God Goku to the face without flinching, which has to count for something. Krillin was sent flying across the countryside and broke his leg taking such a punch, and Goku was ''weaker'' since that was before he trained with Whis. However, Trunks elbowed Monaka on accident and he ended up crying, so his power tier compared to the lower tiered Z-Fighters is unknown.
* PintSizedPowerhouse: Only goes up to Goku's waist, but Beerus claims that he gave a much better fight than Goku ever did, [[spoiler: which isn't true. Beerus only made that up to motivate Goku and Vegeta. But that he managed to tank a punch from a PhysicalGod with Nothing other than a few scrapes shows that while he may not be the strongest, he's not the weakest either.]]
* PeoplePuppets: After Goku [[spoiler: tears up the Monaka costume during his sparring match with Beerus, Vegeta and Piccolo rushes to fix it. When Goku asked what is going on]], Vegeta and Piccolo [[spoiler: pretend]] that Monaka is controlling their bodies.
* PutOnABus: Monaka hasn't been seen since the defeat of Copy Vegeta. He was mentioned during the Universal Survival Saga, but due to the nature of the tournament and the consequences, Beerus quickly stated that he was sick.
* QuakingWithFear: He was so terrified of fighting Hit that his teeth chattered and his knees trembled.
* TheQuietOne: Around strong fighters, he usually just stares into blankness and sits/stands there. This is actually because he's passed out ... however, he talks normally whenever it doesn't involve [[spoiler:Beerus's lie]].
* RunningGag: He always faints when something even slightly surprising happens.
* ShooOutTheClowns: Guess who isn't a fighter for the Universal Survival Saga? This is probably in fear of the consequences, [[spoiler:as the Universe is in stake as opposed to Earth]]. He and Jaco didn't make an appearance or mention in the Future Trunks Saga either, which was far darker than the series has been so far.
* SleepsWithBothEyesOpen: Whenever he passes out, he keeps both of his eyes wide open.
* SpaceTrucker: Well more like space delivery man, but close enough.
* WalkingSpoiler: After his buildup through the Champa Saga, [[spoiler:it's safe to assume that most of the spoilers on this page are about how weak Monaka is.]]
* WealthyEverAfter: [[spoiler:At the end of the Champa Arc, as a reward for his services, Beerus pays him a small fortune worth of treasure.]]
* WorldsStrongestMan: Beerus claims that he is the strongest mortal in Universe 7 since he gave him a better fight than Super Saiyan God Goku and forces him to fight last at the tournament since he is TheAce. [[spoiler: This is a lie Beerus created to give Goku and Vegeta motivation to keep growing stronger and to win him the tournament. To keep Goku from finding out the truth, Beerus dressed in a Monaka costume and sparred with Goku]].

* TheBusCameBack: He returns in the Granolah arc after a fairly long absence, [[UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom where he once again provides vital information to a group of villains.]]
* ChekhovsGunman: In his initial appearance, he gives Bulma information on the Super Dragon Balls and isn't mentioned again. [[spoiler: In the Future Trunks Saga, Zamasu breaks into his temple to gain information about the Super Dragon Balls and Goku.]] He also appears in the Granolah Arc, [[spoiler:giving the Heeters information on the Dragon Balls.]]
* HasAType: Turns out he has a thing for feisty women like Bulma and Macki, which is why he'll answer more than one question for them if they kiss him.
* JackassGenie: Counts any rhetorical question as one of the questions he will answer, will only make one appointment every seven years, [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking and insults Bulma's age]]. [[spoiler:Zamasu won't take any of that though, and forcefully barges in his temple.]]
* LivingMacGuffin: The Heeters seek him out so they can pry him for information. They convince him to answer ten questions, including one regarding the weaknesses of the Saiyans.
* MeaningfulName: "Zunô" means "Brain" in Japanese, appropriately.
* TheOmniscient: He knows about ''everything'' in the universe. He knew exactly what Bulma's breast size was, even before they began to drop. He's even more knowledgeable than Whis.
* SmallRoleBigImpact: Despite him showing up for only two scenes in the Future Trunks Saga, it's him telling Zamasu about the Super Dragon Balls and Goku that gives Zamasu the information needed to begin his plans, [[spoiler: first by killing his master to become a Supreme Kai and taking the Time Ring, using it to go a year into the future, and making a wish on the Super Dragon Balls to take Goku's body, creating Goku Black]].
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: It's him giving information to Zamasu about the Super Dragon Balls and Goku, that kick starts the major events of the Future Trunks Saga and creates the StableTimeLoop.

[[folder:Bah]]
!!Bah
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bah_bro.png]]

On Planet Vampa, there is a race of giant snake-dog creatures. Although Paragus thought they were all AlwaysChaoticEvil, in truth some of them are capable of bonding with something not belonging to its kin. One of these creatures was Broly's training partner, and he named him "Bah" after the sounds he made.

* AllegoricalCharacter: He represents what the audience believes Broly is: an AlwaysChaoticEvil beast with no redeeming qualities, with Paragus serving as a AudienceSurrogate about it. The fact Bah was able to bond with Broly mirrors his CharacterDevelopment with Cheelai, Lemo [[spoiler:and Goku at the end of the film]].
* AlwaysChaoticEvil: Paragus thought all the snake-dogs were feral uncontrollable beasts, yet Bah subverted this notion, as he was capable of bonding with Broly.
* FirstFriend: To Broly. Meeting and playing with Bah had remained one of Broly's fondest memories, to the point he keeps the ear Paragus shot off as a pelt and becomes quite protective of it.
* OnlyFriend: Bah was Broly's only friend. Quite tragic, they didn't even knew each other for that long.
* PetTheDog: In both ways. The Snake-dog creatures are known feral monsters, yet one of them managed to bond with a young Broly. This also works in-universe, as its friendship with the creature shows Broly is a pure-hearted Saiyan instead of the psychopath of old, as he retains Bah's memory with him all the time.
* SmallRoleBigImpact: He only appears for less than a minute in the film in the form of flashbacks, yet he gives a much more complete insight of Broly's as a character.

'''Voiced by (Latin American Spanish):''' Jerry Velázquez

An actor for the "''Great Saiyaman vs. Mr. Satan''" movie, he is quite the charmer. However, he's not as nice as he seems.

* AerithAndBob: In a world where people can be named Goku and Videl and Tien Shinhan, this guy is named "Barry".
* AscendedExtra: He appeared in a magazine in ''Anime/DragonBallZ'' (chapter 476 of the manga). He was the supermodel Fat Buu copied the face of in order to receive a kiss from a girl before he killed her for rejecting him. Also counts as an example of a ContinuityNod.
* AttentionWhore: He can't stand the thought of ''not'' being the center of attention, and it's clear the "''Great Saiyaman vs. Mr. Satan''" is just a VanityProject made for him to plaster his face in every nook and cranny imaginable. Gohan standing out and getting more attention than him sets him off ''big-time''.
* AxCrazy: He goes nuts when he is [[spoiler:taken over by Watagash, kidnaps Pan, and lures Gohan out to kill him in front of the public in a crazed rage]].
* BeautyIsBad: He's a very good-looking man and acts nice in public, but behind closed doors, he's an egomaniacal asshole who belittles others and throws tantrums when he doesn't get his way.
* BitchInSheepsClothing: He acts charming and nice, but it's soon made clear that Barry is a major {{Jerkass}} and SpoiledBrat who only puts up said charming and nice act to get people to do what he wants. The point is driven home when [[spoiler:he's possessed by Watagash, who's specifically noted to only [[MoreThanMindControl draw out hatred and evil that's already present in his host's heart]], not create it]].
* BodyHorror: In Episode 74, [[spoiler:Watagash uses him as his host and beats down Gohan, and he turns into outright terrifying forms as he grows stronger]].
* BreakTheHaughty: After getting [[spoiler: taken over by Watagash and going DrunkWithPower, Gohan beats him down with ease after he becomes Super Great Saiyaman]] and then Cocoa blackmails him with threatening to tell the public about his time as Watagash's host if he even thinks about outing Gohan's secret to the world.
* BullyingADragon: Despite knowing Gohan is the Great Saiyaman, a superhero famous for beating up dozens of guys with machine guns, Barry starts threatening to expose Gohan and shouting threats of sending {{paparazzi}} after Gohan and his family after Videl rejects him a second time. In response, Gohan ''politely'' tells him to stop or he will [[PapaWolf wake up Pan]]. Barry refuses to take the hint, snapping that Gohan's just a stuntman and can't tell him what to do, Gohan grabs onto him, rushes him at hypersonic-speed, and stops just before a wall, scaring the living daylights out of him, before once more ''[[TranquilFury politely]]'' telling him to leave.
* TheCharmer: Tries to charm Videl right next to Gohan. However, Videl doesn't buy it, outright telling Gohan that "he is cooler".
* DisproportionateRetribution: He didn't know Gohan was superhuman so he fully intended to have him hurt/killed doing a stunt as revenge for his wife's rejection.
* DrunkOnTheDarkSide: [[spoiler:He ''really'' enjoys the power boost he gets from Watagash.]]
* EvilIsPetty: He allows Gohan to be a stuntman and hopes for him to be seriously hurt or killed because Videl snubbed him when he tried hitting on her. He then tries to ruin Gohan's marriage by setting him up with Cocoa, taking pictures of her kissing Gohan, and then showing those pictures to Videl. Videl isn't fooled for a minute and shreds the pictures before shooting Barry down with a TheReasonYouSuckSpeech, remarking how pathetic it is that Barry [[SpoiledBrat is treated like royalty and still acts like an insecure little brat]].
* FaceOfAnAngelMindOfADemon: He's a handsome, charming man, and an absolute SpoiledBrat who will resort to trickery, blackmail, and even [[spoiler:kidnapping babies]] the very ''instant'' something doesn't go his way or he isn't [[AttentionWhore the center of attention]]. When he's [[spoiler:possessed by Watagash, all of his inner evil and darkness is brought to the surface]].
* FatalMethodActing: {{Invoked}}. Barry has no problem with risking the life of his stuntman just to make a scene look cooler. He is eager to see Gohan get hurt or killed when he takes the stuntman's place.
* FauxAffablyEvil: He's willing to act charming, polite, and nice when it suits him, as seen with his interactions with Mr. Satan; the second something ''doesn't'' go his way, Barry drops the act and is perfectly willing to resort to such lows as trickery, blackmail, and even [[spoiler:kidnapping babies]].
* {{Foil}}: Arguably to ''Zamasu'' of all people. Both of them are ''insanely'' petty, prone to DisproportionateRetribution over the most minor of slights, and have a ''massive'' InferioritySuperiorityComplex. The biggest difference between them is that Zamasu has the strength to be a universal threat while Barry's only 'power' is his social influence.
* FrameUp: Tries to frame Gohan and make it look like he's cheating on Videl with Cocoa so he can have her all to himself. Videl, however, knows her husband and throws Barry out of the house.
* GreenEyedMonster: He really didn't like Gohan getting more attention than him after he successfully pulled his stunt of jumping on a moving tank, pulling out the driver, and changing the pose that he came up with. He's also jealous that Gohan is married to Videl and actually tries to ruin their marriage in revenge. [[spoiler:It gets to the point where after being taken over by Watagash, he fully intends to murder Gohan out of simple envy and spite.]]
* GrandTheftMe: He is [[spoiler:taken over by Watagash because he has so much darkness in his heart]].
* HateSink: The audience is clearly not supposed to like Barry since he is an insufferable {{Jerkass}} who will risk the life of his stunt double just to make a scene look cooler and wishes harm to others because they snub him.
* HeroWorshipper: {{Subverted}}. He wants a movie about the Great Saiyaman not because he's any fan of the guy, but because he figures it would be an interesting contrast if a popular star like him plays a dorky, forgotten figure. Unlike most civilians and people who aren't in the know, he's not really a fan of Mr. Satan either, having only read the first page of his autobiography to quote so he can appeal to the man's ego when pitching the movie to him, and likely only approached Mr. Satan so the movie could ride off of his fame and popularity.
* HopelessSuitor: Tries to flirt with Videl, who is absolutely not interested and HappilyMarried to Gohan, who she considers much cooler. He doesn't take the rejection well.
* HumansAreTheRealMonsters: He's easily one of the biggest, most evil bastards in the series, which is saying something given the monsters the franchise is known for, and was already that way even before [[spoiler:Watagash hijacked his body and gave him superpowers. To drive the point home, it's established that Watagash doesn't induce any evil or hatred in his host's heart, he merely brings it to the surface; when Barry is possessed, he becomes strong enough to overpower base Gohan, something a violent bank robber was unable to do, which goes to show just how evil and heartless Barry really is]].
* ItsAllAboutMe: He only wants to star in a movie about the Great Saiyaman because he wants to plaster his face in every nook and cranny imaginable. He also doesn't take rejection well, since he hopes Gohan will be seriously hurt doing a highly dangerous stunt. Videl actually calls him out on this in her TheReasonYouSuckSpeech, saying how Barry is treated like a prince, yet is so insecure that he would resort to trickery and blackmail when he isn't the center of attention.
* {{Jerkass}}: Is a jerk to almost everyone, including the director of the Great Saiyaman film, the intended stunt double for the Great Saiyaman (until Gohan took his place), and Gohan himself. He acts nice to Mr. Satan, but that's all a facade to get him to do what he wants. He's also polite to the ladies, for all the wrong reasons.
* JerkJock: He ''tries'' to invoke the "bad boy biker in a leather jacket" persona that {{Chick Magnet}}s like Creator/JamesDean are famous for being. Unlike James Dean, who as a rule played JerkWithAHeartOfGold characters, Barry is just a plain old jerk with no gold in sight.
* KarmaHoudini: He gets off ''very'' lightly for [[spoiler:setting Gohan up so he can ruin his marriage and kidnapping baby Pan to spite Videl and Gohan. The worst punishment he gets is him getting blackmailed by Cocoa in case he ever exposed Gohan's identity as the Great Saiyaman]].
* KickTheDog: Barry proves what a {{Jerkass}} he is by forcing a stuntman to jump on top of a speeding tank without wires, not caring if the man gets hurt or killed. He also lets Gohan do the stunt out of spite for Videl's rejection, hoping that Gohan gets injured.
* ManipulativeBastard: He manipulates Cocoa into [[spoiler:framing Gohan for infidelity]].
* {{Narcissist}}: He displays some of the traits of genuine narcissism, being an extremely self-absorbed man as his VanityProject lays out quite well and essentially goes into a narcissistic rage when [[spoiler:Videl snubs him the first and second time]].
* NiceCharacterMeanActor: He plays the protagonist in his movies, yet in real life, he is a major jerkass and HateSink.
* NotGoodWithRejection: Everything he does, [[spoiler:both before and after he's possessed by Watagash]], is purely because Videl, a ''married'' woman, shot him down when he tried hitting on her.
* PlayingAgainstType: {{Invoked}} in-universe. The Great Saiyaman is considered by the public to be an uncool hero who made the headlines for a while then vanished, and Barry thinks it'll be amusing to play someone so different from (how he sees) himself.
* ThePowerOfHate: Watagashi becomes more powerful the eviler the heart of its current host is; [[spoiler: the fact that Barry becomes stronger than base form Gohan when possessed, something even a violent bank robber couldn't do, reveals just how horrible a person he is]].
* PsychopathicManchild: All of his actions are motivated by the fact that someone said "no" to him. This trait is made all the more clearer in his VillainousBreakdown when Videl snubs him again; he throws a screaming tantrum, ranting about how much of a big deal he is while pounding on his car with his fists and sulking like a child who didn't get what he wanted.
* PrimaDonnaDirector: He has creative and executive power over the Great Saiyaman movie, and will treat the film crew like dirt while making unreasonable demands on them. He even threatens a stuntman's life by changing a scene so that the stuntman will have to jump on top of a moving tank that's speeding at him ''without wirework''. If the Gohan hadn't substituted for the guy, it would've been FatalMethodActing.
* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Gets one from Videl after he tries to break up her marriage with Gohan by taking pictures of Cocoa kissing him:
--> '''Videl''': I feel bad for you. [''tears up the pictures''] I can't believe you'd go through all of this just because I turned down your autograph! And does it really bother you so much that Gohan gets a moment to shine? You're the most famous guy around, but you're also the most insecure. ''That's'' why I feel bad for you.
* SecretKeeper: During an attempt to frame Gohan for infidelity, he discovers Great Saiyaman's SecretIdentity is Gohan. [[spoiler:He is blackmailed into keeping quiet by Cocoa, who threatens to reveal his actions under the influence of Watagash if he spills the beans.]]
* SignatureStyle: He mentions that his films are famous for having stunts without wires and insists on maintaining this even when he changes a scene so that a stuntman will have to jump on top of a moving tank.
* {{Slimeball}}: Uses his fame, money, and good looks to sleaze and bully his way up the social ladder and coerce women into sleeping with him. Put him in a business suit and he will not be out of place in ''Film/TheWolfOfWallStreet.''
* TheSociopath: A high-functioning example; Barry possesses a superficial charm and charisma that masks a total inability to feel empathy for others; takes amusement in watching those less fortunate than himself cower in fear by threatening their livelihoods and futures, an utter lack of conscience, to the extent of being willing to ruin marriages and [[spoiler:kidnap innocent children]] over jilted love. Barry would be ''just'' as dangerous as Frieza if only he was more powerful [[spoiler:and Watagashi possessing him made him just that]].
* SpoiledBrat: He expects to be given everything and anything, and if he doesn't he flips his shit. Videl [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech calls him out on this]], remarking that he's so insecure despite being treated like royalty. His VillainousBreakdown over Videl snubbing him a second time takes the form of a blatant temper tantrum.
-->'''Barry:''' I don't care if he's a superhero, you ''don't'' disrespect me! I'm superstar Barry Khan! I'm rich! I'm famous! I still read for under 20! He should worship me!
* UriahGambit: Sort of. He approves Gohan's request to substitute for the stuntman in a very dangerous action scene that he thought would've invoked some FatalMethodActing. Reminiscent of the biblical TropeNamer, he tries to pull this on a man whose wife he tried to hit on.
* VanityProject: It's clear that "''Great Saiyaman vs. Mr. Satan''" is one of these for him. He acts like a PrimaDonnaDirector to his film crew, tries to make the assistant director rename the movie to "Barry Kahn in ''Great Saiyaman vs. Mr. Satan''", cast a famous idol as his character's love interest, only chose to play the Great Saiyaman because he thought there'd be an interesting contrast between a famous star like him to play a washed-up has-been, and he doesn't actually respect his costar, only approaching Mr. Satan to ride off of his popularity.
* VillainousBreakdown: Has a massive tantrum when Videl catches on about his FrameUp attempt on Gohan, thumping his car and yelling to himself about how much of a big deal he is. This ultimately culminates in him [[spoiler:kidnapping Pan and challenging Gohan to a fight after he is taken over by Watagash]].
* VillainousCrush: On Videl, to the point of trying to falsely accuse Gohan of cheating - though it's less that he has a thing for her and more that [[ItsAllAboutMe he's outraged that]] ''[[ItsAllAboutMe she]]'' [[ItsAllAboutMe didn't fall for]] ''[[ItsAllAboutMe him]]''.
* WagTheDirector: {{Invoked}} routinely by Barry. He uses his fame to bully film crews and directors to make stupid and dangerous alterations to productions to better inflate his self-image. However, when faced with a director with ''genuine'' force of will, he will hastily back off.
* WouldHurtAChild: Watagashi only amplifies the evil within his host; he doesn't induce it. [[spoiler:Barry's status as human garbage is therefore confirmed when he kidnaps and endangers the life of baby Pan, and holds her hostage as a final gesture of petty spite for Videl's rejection.]]

A popular IdolSinger who got cast as the love interest in "''Great Saiyaman vs. Mr. Satan''".

* AllLoveIsUnrequited: For Gohan, who is completely loyal to his wife Videl. Although, she doesn't mind.
* BecomingTheMask: Though she is manipulated by Barry into [[spoiler:making it look like she and Gohan are having a secret love affair]], after a heart-to-heart talk with Gohan, she genuinely falls for him and refuses to continue with the plan, [[spoiler:although Barry still ends up getting the incriminating "evidence" he wanted from her anyway]].
* TheDogBitesBack: [[spoiler: After Barry blackmails her into trying to frame Gohan as cheating on his wife]], she one-ups him by blackmailing him into keeping quiet about Gohan's superhero identity by threatening to tell the public about his time as [[spoiler: Watagash's host if he spills the beans.]]
* HeroWorshipper: Like most of the rest of the world, she's a fan of Mr. Satan. She also gets pretty excited about [[spoiler:spending time with Gohan after learning he's the Great Saiyaman]]. However, this is all a ploy since she was [[spoiler: bullied by Barry into setting up Gohan to make it appear that she's having a love affair with him]]. She doesn't follow through with it after Gohan shows her real compassion and warmth, and truly does see Gohan as a hero.
* HiddenDepths: She opens up to Gohan about some insecurities of hers and how worthless she feels compared to him, a superhero who's friends with aliens.
* HopelessSuitor: Her ShipTease with [[HappilyMarried Gohan]] is obviously never going to progress beyond being a [[AllLoveIsUnrequited one-sided crush]].
* MomentOfWeakness: Even though she knows Gohan is HappilyMarried, she can't help but give him a ''genuine'' parting kiss as appreciation for how kind he was to her. [[spoiler: Videl does not hold it against her when she is shown the photos of them kissing by Barry.]]
* NiceGirl: Probably one of the nicer characters in the show, despite [[spoiler:knowing the Great Saiyaman's identity]] and using it to blackmail him. Although, the blackmail is extremely mild (compared to Videl's). She only wants [[spoiler: Gohan to fly her home and work on her lines, and even that was because she was set up by Barry. [[BewareTheNiceOnes She later blackmails Barry into keeping Gohan's identity a secret]].]]
* SecretKeeper: She ends up finding out the [[spoiler:Great Saiyaman's SecretIdentity]] after eavesdropping on a conversation between Gohan and Bulma. She promises to keep it a secret though. She also makes sure Barry never tells anyone about the Great Saiyaman by threatening to reveal that he was the [[spoiler: the monster who wrecked the city]].
* ShipTease: She plays the Great Saiyaman's love interest in the movie, and ironically enough, [[spoiler:she meets and develops genuine romantic feelings for the real Great Saiyaman]].

'''Voiced by (English):''' Creator/LuciChristian\\
'''Voiced by (Latin American Spanish):''' Ana Lobo

A girl from Tien's past who was a member of the Crane School along with Tien and Chiaotzu and after Tien left vowed once she grew up to find and defeat him.

* ButtMonkey: She tries to be threatening but spends a majority of the episode having to deal with Roshi ogling her. Twice she unintentionally flashes him to her displeasure.
* ChineseVampire: With her spells, she can mind control anyone and make them into a sort of ''jiang-shi.'' Thanks to this, she could control Master Roshi and give Goku a good impression of what Roshi true power really is like.
* EasilyForgiven: After her plan is foiled, Tien offers to let her enroll in his dojo so she can become stronger. She does apologize and ask for forgiveness though for what she did.
* EdibleThemeNaming: Her name comes from ''Yūrinchī'', a chinese fried chicken.
* {{Expy}}: Fanservice version of Chichi.
* EvilCounterpart: She seems almost like a more vengeful version of teen Chichi in both appearance and personality.
* EvilIsPetty: Her reason for using witchcraft on Tien's students and trashing his dojo is basically to one-up Tien after he ignored her pleas to fight him, left the school to go traveling, and then forgot about her. Tien even calls her out on how trivial it is. Although it is also heavily implied that her real reason was a crush on him, making this a different trope.
* HeelFaceTurn: Ends up stopping her plans for vengeance against Tien and joining his dojo.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: She's a petty villain that has no relevance past her episode ever again, but instead of being punished for her crimes and disappearing/dying like most one-off villains, she apologizes to Tien and the townsfolk and ends up one of his new dojo students. Judging by TheCameo in the finale, she's definitely pulled a bit of a HeelFaceTurn as a full-time student aiding the others.
* MaleGaze: Her debut (and only) episode emphasizes her rear and legs shortly after her introduction.
* NotSoHarmlessVillain: While Yurin's fighting power is low in of itself, she knows witchcraft and using paper talismans applied to a person's face, puts them under her control as she does with Tien's students and Roshi.
* OlderThanTheyLook: Appears to be in her late teens to early 20s. Since she was in training when Tenshinhan left the Crane school, she'd have to be in her thirties or forties based on her apparent age in the flashback.
* ReluctantFanserviceGirl: First appears wearing a traditional outfit but is dragged into wearing a more revealing outfit by Roshi complete with her shoulders bared and a miniskirt, which she does not like at all.
* RememberTheNewGuy: Apparently she was a student at the Crane School like Tien and Chiaotzu, but was never even mentioned once until her debut episode.
* {{Revenge}}: For a bit of a [[EvilIsPetty petty and selfish reason]] in that she held a vendetta for a ridiculous amount of time for [[DisproportionateRetribution Tien leaving the Crane School]]. Somehow it's ''this'' that she hangs onto, and not the shaming of Master Shen, the death of Shen's brother Tao or the like. Then again, see {{Tsundere}} below.
* {{Tsundere}}: Yurin leaps between being excited to find Tien again, and wanting revenge. Considering how easily she pulls a HeelFaceTurn when he asks her to join his dojo, and the fact that her entire spiel of vengeance focused entirely around Tien leaving the Crane School rather than anything else, odds are she might have had a crush on him when she was younger and just exhibited it as violent rage. Tien accepting her as a student brings out the "dere" side afterward, albeit with a weak claim that it was because he was pestering her about it.
* UnknownRival: Tien forgot about her after he left The Crane School and it wasn't until she called him a "three-eyed baldy" that he remembers who she is.
* WomanChild: She acts like a teenage girl despite being in her thirties or forties.

----
* BeastMan: As stated, he is a red frog-like alien.
* TheCameo: Appears along with Jaco in the seventh ending, "Angels and Demons".
* KeepItForeign: Generally, the Funimation dub keeps his name as Geppuman.
* MeaningfulName: He eats food at restaurants and leaves without paying, and it's not uncommon to "burp" after eating at a restaurant.
* TheScapegoat: He's one for Jaco when the latter accidentally blows up a valuable monument.
* StupidCrooks: Repeat offender or not, leaving diners without paying would only be a misdemeanor. When he sees a member of the Galactic Patrol, he freaks out and holds a hostage at gunpoint, upgrading his status to "felon".
* VillainousGlutton: Zigzagged. Going from restaurant to restaurant, leaving without paying for your meals is clearly a criminal offense, but nothing serious. When he grabs a hostage and holds him at gunpoint, he establishes himself as a villain.

The sole inhabitant of Planet Potaufeu who guards over the Comméson Water. A friend of Monaka's who he orders magazines from.
----
* EdibleThemeNaming: "Potage" is an old French name for thick soups, stews, or porridges. In fact, the name Potage's planet, Potaufeu, seems to come from "Pot-au-feu", a French stew.
* FunnyForeigner: In keeping with the French name-theming for Potage and his planet, he has a very thick French/German accent in the English dub.
* LastOfHisKind: The sole remaining survivor of his race who sacrificed themselves to seal the Comméson.
* MrExposition: Serves this role, explaining what the Comméson water is and its powers.

Leader of a galactic crime gang who searches Planet Potafu to obtain the power of the Comméson Water.

* BigBadWannabe: {{Downplayed}}. Gryll is described by Jaco to be a top target for the Galactic Elite and is played out to be the antagonist of the Potaufeu arc even though the heroes vastly outclass him and his minions. Except, they end up dead halfway through his debut episode, with his role being taken over by Copy-Vegeta.[[note]]His death is not pointed out until the following episode, however.[[/note]]
* CombatPragmatist: When Gryll's men attack an old man, the man responds by taking a fighting stance that impresses Goten and Trunks. Gryll's men respond by taking out their guns. When that fails, they retreat and notice that the old man dropped the item they are after and come back for it while Goten and Trunks search for it in the wrong direction. When Goten and Trunks try to attack them again, they take Monaka hostage.

'''Voiced by (English):''' Brian Olvera\\
'''Voiced by (Latin American Spanish):''' Raúl Anaya

Special water that was made by planet Potafu's natives to defend against invaders. However, it turned evil and absorbed the natives, so it ended up being locked up. Rumors had it that the water would make others powerful, but this is false, and the result of people misidentifying its true power. This water also controls Copy-Gryll and Copy-Vegeta.

* ArcVillain: It is the primary villain of a story arc that has no connections to any previous villain or story.
* AssimilationBackfire: He finds out the hard way that Copy-Vegeta doesn't take orders any better than the original.
* BullyingADragon: After [[spoiler:Copy-Vegeta]] refuses to absorb Goku, Copy-Gryll electrocutes him so he will obey. This ends horribly for Copy-Gryll.
* CombatPragmatist: While Vegeta is prepared to fight Copy-Gryll directly, Copy-Gryll simply has the special liquid he and his men are made out of drain Vegeta of his energy from behind, making an evil copy of Vegeta. [[spoiler:Copy-Gryll orders Copy-Vegeta to do this to Goku, but Copy-Vegeta has Vegeta's pride, so he isn't going to resort to such a dirty tactic.]]
* DisappearsIntoLight: All victims of the Comméson Water have their strength drained and disappear within 3-5 minutes. However, Vegeta is able to endure for a significantly longer time.
* EdibleThemeNaming: An anagram of consommé, a type of French soup.
* ElementalShapeshifter: The copies it produces can shapeshift into water.
* GoodColorsEvilColors: Anyone who gets touched by the water gets their strength drained and has a purple clone made out of them, with the original eventually disappearing if the water isn't defeated.
* GoneHorriblyRight:
** The people of Planet Potaufeu created it as a powerful weapon that can absorb people and steal their powers. It was created to [[PowerNullifier neutralize the enemies]] of the Potaufeu. However, the Comméson not only takes the [[PowerCopy power of the people it absorbs]], but also their will and spirit. So when the Comméson absorbs the power of an evil person, it too becomes evil. It soon became so powerful that it threatened the universe, so the people of Potaufeu [[HeroicSacrifice sacrificed]] themselves to seal it within the planet.
** By absorbing Vegeta, it copies his personality and will. Since the real Vegeta is far too prideful to fight using dirty tactics or relying on the strength of others to get ahead, the Comméson can't control Copy-Vegeta.
* PowerCopy: The Comméson can take the power and abilities of the people it absorbs, creating a perfect copy. This can be a bad thing if the Comméson absorbs someone as headstrong and as powerful as Vegeta, which it unfortunately does.
* PowerNullifier: The original intention of the Comméson. It was created by the people of Potaufeu to nullify their enemies by stealing their strength. Unfortunately, the Comméson also absorbs its victims' will and spirit, turning it evil since it took the power of evil people.
* SealedEvilInACan: It was sealed in [[ItMakesSenseInContext a pot, which was locked in a fridge, and locked by a padlock that uses a binky as a key]].

->'''Voiced by (Japanese):''' Creator/MasakazuMorita\\
'''Voiced by (English):''' Creator/BrianDrummond\\
'''Voiced by (Latin American Spanish):''' Creator/ReneGarcia

A copy of Vegeta made that was created after the Super Water absorbed him. Along with sharing the appearance of the real Vegeta, he also shares his power, personality, and spirit.

* AntiVillain: [[SlidingScaleOfAntiVillains Of the Noble Villain variety]]. He doesn't like to gain more power by stealing it from others and prefers to fight Goku head-on rather than absorb him from behind like Copy-Gryll.
* CastingGag: The English dub has one of the most impressive examples of these to date, with Creator/BrianDrummond, the voice of Vegeta in the Ocean dub playing him. So for the first time ever, both Vegetas face off in-series!
* CurbStompBattle: Defeats Gotenks with no effort, acting as if the whole fight's a simple training session for Gotenks.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Toyed with. Due to being a copy of Vegeta, he genuinely cares for Trunks and hesitates when Copy-Gryll tells him to absorb Trunks. He later praises Trunks for his efforts in fighting him. [[WouldHurtAChild Not enough to stop him from trying to kill Trunks and Goten however.]]
* EvilKnockOff / EvilCounterpart: Copy-Vegeta is a purple copy of Vegeta created by the Comméson after it absorbs Vegeta's power and personality. Because the Comméson also absorbs Vegeta's will and spirit on top of his power, he doesn't like others telling him what to do, taking the power of others' to boast his own strength, and has a fondness for Trunks.
* FillerVillain: His arc is one of many Toei-original bits of the ''Super'' anime that wasn't in Toriyama's outline and has no effect on anything else. However, his appearance does somewhat foreshadow the succeeding arc's introduction of a certain other, much less noble body-snatching villain by the name of Goku Black.
* HonorBeforeReason: He wants to fight Goku in a fair match, despite having the ability to absorb Goku's power and become stronger. This puts him at odds with Copy-Gryll who is a CombatPragmatist.
* {{Pride}}: He inherits Vegeta's massive ego, and in a scene mirroring what Majin Vegeta did in the Buu saga, he defies his alleged master's orders and decides to fight Kakarot.
* RootingForTheEmpire: [[invoked]] InUniverse, the real Vegeta sees Copy-Vegeta as an extension of himself and occasionally roots for his doppelganger in his fight against Goku. Of course, since Copy-Vegeta's victory would ensure his template's erasure, Vegeta is content with Goku winning but at least wants his duplicate to give Goku a real challenge for the sake of his own pride. Goku and Copy-Vegeta wonder aloud whose side Vegeta is even on.
* TooSpicyForYogSothoth: Although copied by the "Superhuman Water" of planet Potofu, Copy-Vegeta has the original's indomitable will and refuses to be controlled by the Comméson. However, the clone also has Vegeta's stubbornness and desire for power, so it's still bad news for everyone else.
* TheWorfEffect: As mentioned above in CurbStompBattle, he destroyed Super Saiyan 3 Gotenks in his base form. Copy-Vegeta nonchalantly tanks several strong attacks but sustains no damage whatsoever.

* BodySurf: It chooses hosts depending on their power. Jaco suspects that Gohan was his host.
* {{Expy}}: Of [[Anime/DragonBallGT Baby]], the original [[BodySnatcher body stealing]] [[PuppeteerParasite parasite]].
* HereWeGoAgain: Jaco [[spoiler:lets him loose again after eating ramen]].
* MoreThanMindControl: Upon stealing the body of one of the bank robbers, it's implied that he used the host's hatred of Great Saiyaman in order to goad him into fighting him. The same seems to be true for [[spoiler:Barry Kahn]].
* ThePowerOfHate: The more evil the heart of its host is, the more powerful Watagashi becomes. [[spoiler:Barry]] is a host ''so'' vile and black-hearted that he became more powerful than base-form Gohan.
* PuppeteerParasite: Can attach onto people, greatly increasing their strength, making them actually catch Gohan off-guard (he quickly turned the tables though).
* TransformationOfThePossessed: He's able to possess others and shift their forms, the transformation depending on how much evil and hatred the host has in their heart. [[spoiler:When he possesses Barry Khan, Barry turns out to be such a [[HumansAreTheRealMonsters horrible person]] that he first shifts into a large ape-like form, and then a {{Kaiju}}-sized reptilian beast that no longer resembles Barry at all.]]

!!! Manga-Exclusive Characters
[[AC:Cerealians]]
[[folder:The Cerealians]]
An alien race native to the planet Cereal that were wiped out by the Saiyans shortly before Kakarot/Son Goku was sent to Earth. Despite resembling humans, they have lifespans of up to 200 years and various powers based on their keen sight.

* CharlesAtlasSuperpower: If a Cerealian were to undergo intense training for their entire lives, they could give even the strongest Saiyan a run for their money.
* EdibleThemeNaming: They're named after various grain-based breakfasts.
* {{Foil}}: To the Saiyans. The Saiyans are known for being {{Blood Knight}}s who charge headfirst into a fight and gleefully wipe out populations, while the Cerealians are sociable beings who share their planet with non-native races and their combat abilities are based around sniping rather than brawling. The Saiyans are named after vegetables, while the Cerealians are named after grains.
* HumanAlien: Just like the Saiyans and certain members of Frieza's empire, they look just like regular humans, the only difference being their mismatched eyes.
* LongLived: Cerealians have a lifespan of 200 years.
* OlderThanTheyLook: Just like with the Saiyans, Cerealians age at a slower rate than humans, being able to pass for 20-somethings well into their 50s. Given their extended lifespans, this is to be expected.
* SuperSenses: Their right eye is "evolved" in structure to grant them incredible eyesight, looking like the pupil and iris are fused together into a red spot. Under certain conditions, they can temporarily transform their left eye to match.

[[folder:Granolah]]
!!Granolah (グラノラKan, Guranora)
[[quoteright:286:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/granolah.png]]

A bounty hunter, and the titular main antagonist-turned-protagonist of the Granolah the Survivor Saga. Granolah is the only remaining member of the Cerealians, a race wiped out by the Saiyans long ago. He is introduced stealing OG-73, the infamous android used by Moro, for a bounty offered by the information broker Elec.

He is aided by an AI in his headset called Oatmeel.

* ActuallyADoombot: [[spoiler:As it turns out, Granolah had sent a split copy of him after the Saiyans, since he wished to conserve some of his power for the eventual showdown with Frieza. When it turns out that the copy can't handle Goku's Mastered Ultra Instinct, he dispels it and take down Goku while the latter is still surprised.]]
* AntiVillain: At first, his only goal is to avenge his race's destruction by killing Frieza, but his wish to become the strongest in the universe leads him into conflict with Goku and Vegeta as all three of them are played into the Heeters' hands.
* AwesomenessByAnalysis: [[spoiler:Thanks to his eye, Granolah manages to deduce the nature of Ultra Instinct, and by observing Goku's blood flow and muscle movements, he's able to land a blow on his vitals, allowing him to drop the Saiyan to his knees. He also understood that Goku was still not at full power.]]
* BenevolentAlienInvasion: He bears no ill will towards the Sugarians, the naïve alien race that purchased the barren planet Cereal from the Heeters in order to rebuild their own civilisation. However, their existence serves as a painful reminder of Granola's own lost race and he's uncomfortable seeing their glass-domed citadels replace the original cities of the Cerealians on the very same land ruined by the Saiyans years prior. [[spoiler:He has no qualms about stealing the second Dragon Ball from them, but he cannot bear to cause collateral damage to their cities during his battles against the Saiyan duo, showing that he does care for them.]]
* BigBadEnsemble: He shares the spotlight with Elec, while Granolah's major grudge against Frieza and the Saiyans are the driving force of the arc, Elec's mechanizations and plans are as much of a driving force of the conflict.
* BloodKnight: He relishes the opportunity to fight Frieza and the last remaining Saiyans.
* BountyHunter: How Granolah earns his living.
* CastFromLifespan:
** [[spoiler:His wish to become the strongest in the universe would normally not be grantable, but the Cerealian Dragon is able to achieve a similar effect... for a price. Namely, all but three years left of the lifespan he would have originally had, under the logic that he then receives all the power he could have gathered during those years all at once.]]
** [[spoiler: His ultimate attack also drains his life-force, to the point that he was prepared to die by firing it to kill Vegeta, until he was interrupted. When he does fire it at Gas later on, he comments that doing so probably shortened his lifespan even more.]]
* CharacterDevelopment: Granolah starts out as a bounty hunter and assassin with a mind full of vengeance. After defeating Gas he turns pacifist and tells Macki and Oil to look after their brother. Granolah has finally learned his lesson that revenge only leads to more pain and grudges and finally lets go of his grudge against Frieza and the Saiyans and retires from being a bounty hunter so he can start a new life of with Monaito of living in peace and having normal lives with no fighting.
* CombatPragmatist: [[spoiler:When Goku and Vegeta come looking for him, Granolah begins the fight by hurling several deadly projectiles from afar, using his newfound might, special eye, and expertise as a sniper to overwhelm the two Saiyans. Had it not been for a timely Senzu Bean, that opening move alone would've been enough to kill even Goku.]]
* DeathSeeker: [[spoiler:As his battle with Vegeta rages on with no clear victory in sight for either party, Granolah charges up a huge, self-destructive ki blast and declares his willingness to burn his remaining life away just to put the stubborn Saiyan prince down, completely losing sight of his true mission to kill Frieza. His HeroicBSOD moment in the Sugarian city may have influenced his suicidal decision.]]
* DidntThinkThisThrough: Argued by Monaito who tells him that while he may be [[spoiler:the strongest in the universe]] today, he does not think about the dangers in the future. [[spoiler:True enough, the Heeters wish for Gas to be the strongest.]]
* DubNameChange: Oatmeel is renamed Automil in the Spanish translation.
* EdibleThemeNaming: The Cerealians are named after different types of breakfast. In Granolah and Oatmeel's cases, they're named after '''granola''' and '''oatmeal''', respectively. The Cerealian race itself is named after '''cereal'''.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Granolah's eager reaction to Frieza's revival. That he responds positively to this because of the opportunity to kill the tyrant himself, [[{{Hypocrite}} without any regard for the further harm Frieza will cause]], shows just how consumed by the desire for revenge he is.
* EveryoneHasStandards: When Vegeta brings their fight to an evacuated Sugarian city, Granolah puts aside all of his bravado and outright begs Vegeta to take the fight somewhere else. He may be consumed by vengeance, but Granolah doesn't want to damage the Sugarians' home the same way the Saiyans ruined his. This is especially notable as he was willing to brawl in the Cerealian city ruins, albeit reluctantly. [[spoiler:When he sees a lone mother and child cowering from the battle, he has a full-blown HeroicBSOD moment.]]
* EvilIsEasy: Not necessarily evil in action or intent, but resorting to wishing for ultimate power from a dragon is directly at odds with the natural self-improvement philosophies of the protagonists. It's also worth noting that none of the series' antagonists have used the Dragon Balls to directly increase their own power.
* ExpositionFairy: Oatmeel functions as this and TheWatson, questioning and relaying details about Granola's own past to him, creating a few awkward AsYouKnow situations. This raises some questions about why Oatmeel lacks so much information about his own friend/master's history...
* {{Expy}}: Granolah shares many similarities from Toki, the main protagonist of Toriyama's one-shot manga, ''Manga/{{Kintoki}}''. Examples:
** Like Toki, Granolah also has spiked hair, sports a scarf and an outfit with a green-brown aesthetic.
** Toki is a member of the Kinme, a clan who possess golden eyes which make them gifted marksmen, similar to Granolah being a Cerealian - who possess a special red eye that makes them good marksmen.
** Granolah and Toki are amongst the last of their kind.
** Toki has a short lifespan like the rest of his race and is on a quest due to this fact. Granolah is impatiently on a quest due to his short lifespan, due to wishing for power rather than natural reasons.
** Granolah is a bounty hunter who makes money by selling targets to the Heeters, similarly Toki is a hunter who kills Thundras and then sells them to make a living.
* EyeScream: Granolah ends up [[spoiler:having his precious eyes shot out by Gas after being weakened enough.]]
* FatalFlaw: His thirst for revenge on Frieza. While no one would shed a tear for the tyrant, Granolah's first reaction to his resurrection is a rather unhinged glee at the prospect he can finally have revenge rather than horror, and it's the reason he makes a wish that costs most of his lifespan. It also makes him easily manipulated by the Heeters.
* FromNobodyToNightmare: He quickly ascends from a highly skilled but relatively weak mercenary from an almost extinct species to [[spoiler:the mightiest warrior in the universe thanks to a wish made on the Cerealian Dragon Balls.]]
* HeroicBSOD: Flashes back to his own traumatic past after seeing a Sugarian mother and child cowering from him during his fierce battle against Vegeta, realising that he has become no better than the Saiyans that attacked his planet. Unfortunately, it becomes an IgnoredEpiphany as Vegeta goads him over it.
* HeWhoFightsMonsters: Granolah's fight with Vegeta leads to them brawling in a populated city. When Granolah sees a mother and child cowering in fear of him, he's reminded of his own childhood when he and his mother were terrorised by the Saiyans.
* HumanAliens: The Cerealians, and by default Granolah, look no different from regular Earthlings, barring their right eyes which can be used to see from great distances.
* IgnoredEpiphany: When Granolah sees two innocent bystanders giving him the same terrified look he and his mother gave the Saiyans all those years ago, Granolah's reaction is to take it out on Vegeta, blaming the Saiyans for dragging him down to their level, [[NeverMyFault when the whole fight was his idea]].
* LastOfHisKind: Granolah is the last survivor of the Cerealian race, which was wiped out by the Saiyans.
* LockedOutOfTheLoop: Granolah believes the false story that the Saiyans were wiped out by a meteor. He's also unaware of Frieza's revival -- at least, until Elec reveals that to him.
* LongRangeFighter: Granolah's species are natural snipers with a right eye specifically tailored for it. Thus, while knowing how to fight in melee, he prefers to fight at range where he's more comfortable.
* MagicalEye: As a Cerealian, his right eye looks different than normal and can be used to see across great distances. Oatmeel notes that Granolah's ability in particular is a cut above the rest of his kind and makes him an incredible sniper. [[spoiler:After being on the receiving end of a beatdown from a newly-awakened Ultra Ego Vegeta, Granolah's left eye awakens into a second red eye, echoing Vegeta's own newfound strength as he destroys a planet-destroying attack launched his way.]]
* MadeOfIron: He's durable enough to go toe-to-toe with beings that have achieved Ultra Instinct and Ultra Ego. While Goku and Vegeta weren't trying to kill him, the fact that he can take a punch from beings who are on par with gods and angels is a testament to his power.
* NoNonsenseNemesis: When he finally does run into Goku and Vegeta, he tries to take them out as fast as possible. Downplayed, as he does spend a little time talking to them and telling them he's the strongest in the universe, but then immediately tries to kill Goku twice on the grounds that he only needs one of them alive to give him the information he thinks they have.
* OlderThanTheyLook: Granolah witnessed his race being exterminated by Bardock before the events of the story, with the heeters noting that he's currently 50 years old. Despite this, he looks to be in his 20s or early 30s. Chapter 70 of the DBS manga reveals his race can live up to 2 centuries.
* PintSizedPowerhouse: He's been a working as a bounty hunter since he was a young child and he had already earned a fearsome reputation back then.
* PowerAtAPrice: The price being several decades of his expected lifespan.
* PressurePoint: While he has plenty of power in his regular punches, Granolah specializes in hitting vital points, which he can locate through the use of his special eye. It's effective enough to severely rattle Goku and dispels his god-forms whenever he's hit.
* {{Revenge}}: Granolah is consumed by his need to avenge his people.
* RevengeByProxy: He doesn't care a bit that Goku and Vegeta were only children at the time the Cerealians were wiped out and thus had nothing to do with it.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: His name has been alternatively spelt as "Granolah", "Granolla" or simply "Granola".
* SteamPunk: His design was inspired by this aesthetic movement, to emphasise the fact that he is a relic from an old civilisation.
* TookALevelInKindness: After hearing the truth regarding the death of his people, Granolah apologizes to Goku and Vegeta for taking his wrath out on them. He also takes pity on Gas once he's defeated and lets him live.
* TheUnfettered: There's no risk he's unwilling to take in his mission to become the strongest in the universe.
* UnskilledButStrong: As said by Vegeta, Granolah has immense raw power, and does fight with finesse, but he lacks the Saiyans's considerable battle experience, which Vegeta demonstrates when he rattles Granolah with an attack of his own despite being weaker than him.
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: Back when the Cerealians were wiped out, Granolah was unconscious when Bardock rescued him and his mother, only to wake up right when they were hiding from the Heeters. As soon as Granolah saw Bardock's tail, he cried out in surprise, blowing their cover and attracting the Heeters to their hiding place. This moment of shortsightedness led to Muezli being killed.
* VillainHasAPoint: Despite being an antagonist, he has every reason to hate the Saiyans and Frieza, since the former were wiping out entire populations for fun while the latter is a racist, sadistic ego-maniac. His only flaw is taking his wrath out on Goku and Vegeta, who had nothing to do with his race's demise and also see Frieza as an enemy.
* WellIntentionedExtremist: He wishes to exterminate Frieza from the face of the universe, but carelessly throws away his life and friendship with Monaito in exchange for the power boost necessary to defeat the intergalactic tyrant.
* WorldsStrongestMan: He makes a wish using the Cerealian Dragon Balls to become the strongest in the universe so he can get revenge on both Frieza and the Saiyans. Despite lacking both the battle experience and [[spoiler:sacrificing his lifespan to achieve his wish]], he's still powerful enough to go toe-to-toe with Goku and Vegeta.
* YourDaysAreNumbered: [[spoiler:When he makes his wish to be the strongest in the universe, the dragon Toronbo tells him he will have to sacrifice his lifespan by 150 years. This means he now has 3 years left to live]].

[[folder:Muezli]]
!!Muezli
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/granolahs_mom.jpg]]

Granolah's mother who died decades before the events of the Granolah arc.

* ActionMom: She does everything she can to protect her son when Freeza's forces arrive to take the planet.
* EdibleThemeNaming: [[FamilyThemeNaming Like her son]], she is named after a breakfast grain, muesli.
* MoralityPet: Her determination to protect her son reminds Bardock of his own wife and son, which inspires a rare moment of compassion in the Saiyan warrior. In spite of himself, Bardock goes to extraordinary lengths to keep Muezli, Granolah and Monaito safe from the other Saiyans.
* PosthumousCharacter: Died during the Saiyan invasion forty years ago, alongside every other Cerealian besides Granolah. [[spoiler:However, she was not murdered by a Saiyan as Granolah was led to believe all his life. In fact, she was saved by none other than Bardock and was actually killed by Elec.]]
* StrongFamilyResemblance: Muezli looks like a [[DistaffCounterpart female version]] of Granolah.

[[AC:Heeters]]
[[folder:In General]]
A [[SiblingsinCrime family of criminals]] led by Elec who employ Granolah as a bounty hunter and have their own plans.

* AllForNothing: [[spoiler:Chapter 87 has their ambitions brought to an end. Gas and Elec are killed by Frieza and then Oil and Macki are then conscripted to become Frieza's new cook and waiter.]]
* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: They have blue skin with purple dreadlocks.
* BigBadEnsemble: While Granolah's grudge is a major driving force of the arc, Elec's mechanizations are as much of a driving force of the conflict and he has far bigger plans. [[spoiler:After Granolah realized that Elec was his mother's murderer, Elec becomes the sole BigBad.]]
* BigEater: All four of them can be seen enjoying a large banquet for themselves, showing that they indulge in their vast wealth. Macki, in particular, has a great love for grubrolls.
* BigThinShortTrio: Aside from Elec, the other three siblings fit this mold: Oil is the Big, the only woman Macki is the Thin and the diminutive but powerful Gas is the Short.
* BrainsAndBrawn: Macki, Oil, and Gas are seemingly the brawn to Elec's brain. The former three appear to be enforcers while the latter formulates for them.
* CantKillYouStillNeedYou: While they may loathe Frieza and want to overthrow him, they don't want him ''dead'' due to his status as TheDreaded helping their business remain under their control. [[spoiler:When Granolah reveals he's wished to become the strongest in the universe via Dragon Balls and therefore can potentially kill Frieza and destroy his army, they scheme to have Goku and Vegeta kill him instead.]]
* DreadlockWarrior: They all have dreadlocked hair and are crafty enough to overpower Granolah and the Saiyans.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: Macki and Oil are both shocked and disgusted by Granolah's growing insanity and for using the [[spoiler:Cerealian Dragon Balls to become the strongest fighter]] by giving up most of his lifespan, which they mostly consider to be cheating and downright crazy. Later, Macki and Oil are horrified by Granolah's lack of empathy, the amount of destruction he is causing on Planet Cereal and not caring about the Sugarians and their lives in the process. Macki also disapproves of Elec's methods and becomes more horrified when he removes Gas' headband that causes him to lose control of his senses and starts destroying everything in sight; including them. Macki and Oil are shocked by Elec's harsh words and abuse of Gas and get more disgusted by Elec's lack of care for their brother.
* FamilyThemeNaming: According to Toyotaro, they're siblings. All of them are named after fuel sources.
* FangsAreEvil: The Heeters all wear sharp teeth as jewellery.
* {{Foil}}: In contrast to the Frieza Force's military might, the Heeters gain strength through intelligence and knowledge.
* OlderThanTheyLook: They were in business when Goku was a baby and Vegeta and Granolah were children and all four of them haven't aged since then. Even child-sized Gas hasn't had a growth spurt.
* RememberTheNewGuy: Apparently they have been long time business partners with Frieza, dating back to since the Saiyans were under his employ. However, this is a justified example, as the buying/selling aspect of Frieza's business has never been touched upon until now.
* SiblingsInCrime: They are all siblings who run a powerful criminal syndicate.
* SigilSpam: All of them wear golden emblems with a large 'H' logo somewhere on their outfits. As it turns out, these emblems function as communicators.
* SmugSnake: All four of them are overconfident and elitist.
* TheStarscream: They plot to overthrow their business partner Frieza and take control of his army and resources. [[spoiler: Frieza kills two of them and forces the others to either be his servants or die.]]

[[folder:Elec ('''Spoilers''')]]
!! Elec
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20211120_204148_samsung_internet.jpg]]
%% [[caption-width-right:350:some caption text]]
Leader of the Heeters.

* AssholeVictim: Finally gets his comeuppance in Chapter 87. His plans to kill Frieza by using Gas fails and, after being berated by the tyrant that he's always been seen as insignificant, is killed by Frieza with a blast to the face. No one is going to mourn his death. His remaining siblings are more terrified that Frieza might go after them rather than they are horrified by Elec's death.
* BeardOfEvil: Elec has a goatee. He was clean-shaven when Granolah was a child.
* BigBad: Of the "Granolah the Survivor" Saga. Elec had a hand in the genocide of the Cerealians, which galvanized Granolah into becoming an embittered killer. He would then steal the Dragon Balls and make the wish that turned Gas into the "strongest" being in the universe. And by his own admission, this isn't the end of his plan. His ultimate plan was to have Gas kill Frieza and then take his army for himself. If Gas dies in the attempt, an acceptable loss...
* BigBadWannabe: Although he's the main villain of the Granolah Saga, Elec is this in the grand scheme of things since he is a complete wimp compared to the powerhouses of everyone ''else'' in the universe. He doesn't have a backup plan in the event that Gas ''loses'', reduced to snivelly bartering for his own life or hightailing it out of the area. Frieza reveals that he always knew that Elec was going to try and usurp him at some point, letting him run about as the tyrant exploits Elec's resources instead. Once Elec loses his use, he's promptly fired, literally, courtesy of an energy blast to the face.
* BigBrotherBully: Elec is verbally abusive towards his siblings; especially Gas. Elec takes it further during the final battle against the Saiyans when he grabs an injured Gas by the neck and cruelly scolds him for his failure and forces Gas to push his power further even if it kills him. Chapter 87 ups the abuse; he slaps Macki in the face after she tries to stop Elec from pushing Gas and then callously reveals that Gas is going to die from the wish of being the "strongest in the universe". When Gas is understandably shocked, Elec screams at Gas to ''continue'' fighting, calling him "worthless". The rest of the Heeter siblings are devastated by Elec's lack of concern, finally seeing him as the monster he truly is.
* BreakingOldTrends: In stark contrast to previous series' [[BigBad Big Bads]], Elec is a collected individual who keeps his calm in even dire situations for him. Even the more calculated villains were prone to panic or concern or losing their temper when something didn't go their way, while Elec simply opts to regroup and come up with a new strategy when he runs into a road bump.
* ClassyCravat: Elec wears one to distinguish himself as the head of the organization.
* ContrastingSequelAntagonist: Compared to the previous Dragon Ball villains who are all fighters and warriors, that want to become stronger to rule the universe, as well as some of them leading their own armies. Elec is not much of a fighter and relies on intelligence and knowledge to gain power. While some past main villains have armies or groups who are just allies or pawns to them, Elec’s group, The Heeters, are a family of criminals who are named after fuel sources.
* ControlFreak: As the extreme narcissist that he is, Elec is obsessed with collecting infinite knowledge and intel and wants to be the only one who makes decisions about anything. He is also very bossy and controlling towards his siblings and prefers they only follow his orders and doesn't like anyone questioning his goals or ideals.
* DidntSeeThatComing: Just because someone is the "strongest" in the universe doesn't mean that they will ''remain'' the "strongest", as sheer grit and determination can sometimes overcome a seemingly "invincible" opponent. This is what happens to Gas as the Heeter takes on the combined might of Goku, Vegeta and Granolah and ends up losing. And it would have been all for naught anyway, since Frieza became ''many'' leagues stronger by training "outside" the universe in the Room of Spirit and Time, thus becoming exempt from the wish to make Gas the "strongest", allowing the tyrant to murder Gas in one blow.
* DirtyCoward: This is what Elec is deep down. He may boast that he has the smarts and is the leader of the group but he is too cowardly and lazy to do any of the heavy lifting himself, preferring that his siblings, especially Gas, enforce the muscle. The only time he attacks anyone with his ray gun is when they are too weak to properly defend themselves, like he did when he murders Granolah's mother by surprise or when he shoots Granolah from behind after he is disabled and weakened by Gas first. He even has the nerve to boast that powerful warriors like Goku, Vegeta and Granolah are nothing compared to the Heeters' power (he includes himself), when really, it's Gas that's the actual danger. In Chapter 87, Elec tries to run away after Gas's penultimate defeat and when the latter is killed by Frieza, tries talking his way out, to no avail. Frieza rightly calls him out on this, citing ''Elec'' as the "weakest" of the Heeters.
* TheDon: He's the boss of a vast criminal syndicate, both feared and respected by his subordinates. The respect soon goes away by his own doing.
* {{Gaslighting}}: Elec is actually the ''weakest'' of the Heeters but he's so emotionally abusive and manipulative towards his siblings that he managed to convince them, including the person in question, that ''Gas'' was the weakest instead. So it comes as a shock to Oil and Macki when Frieza reveals the truth, before he's blasted to oblivion.
* {{Guyliner}}: He wears it to emphasise his long, feminine eyelashes.
* HateSink: Elec is a heartless scumbag and easily the most despicable of the Heeters. He is a horrible excuse of a big brother who constantly gaslights and abuses his siblings into serving him, especially Gas by taking advantage of his loyalty and trust. He even manipulates Granolah into doing his dirty work and plans to kill him when he is no longer useful. Elec orchestrated the extinction of the Cerealian race and killed Granolah's mother Muezli in cold blood. He even goes as far to frame Bardock and Frieza for Muezli's murder just to corrupt Granolah and trick him into becoming a bounty hunter for him and take advantage of his trust. Elec also blackmails Monaito into keeping his mouth shut or he and Gas will kill him if he tells the truth to Granolah.
* HatedByAll: By the end of the arc Elec has alienated all of his allies. Granolah never liked him to begin with and finding out he was being targeted for assassination only made things worse. Oil and Macki were horrified to learn that Elec knowingly threw Gas under the bus. Gas likewise was shaken once he found out Elec had sent him to his death. Frieza knew all along that Elec wasn't trustworthy and blew him to bits after bringing him down a peg.
* {{Hypocrite}}: Elec claims that intel is superior to strength, but he still relies on enforcers to carry out his ambitions. Frieza points out that he's actually the weakest of his family, so Elec's whole philosophy casts a pretty unflattering light on him.
* InTheBack: After Granolah loses use of ''both'' his arms and is blinded by Gas, Elec shoots him in the back, with Granolah too weak to defend himself properly.
* {{Irony}}: He claims that intelligence vastly outweighs aspects such as strength, but all of his plans shown so far primarily rely on overpowering the opponent through the raw strength of others.
* ItsAllAboutMe: Beneath his claim of wanting Gas to be the "strongest" in the universe, Elec ultimately cares about only himself and his own goals to control everything. Chapter 87 shows how very little Elec thinks of his siblings, abandoning them to try and save his own skin.
* JerkWithAHeartOfJerk: Elec seems like he wants to make Gas the strongest in the universe so they can overthrow Frieza and rule the universe together. But Elec only sees his siblings as tools and shows no real love towards them and is willing to sacrifice them to achieve their dreams and secretly wants all the knowledge, intel and universe for himself.
* KnowledgeBroker: Elec is a firm believer that intelligence and knowledge are true power. His {{Hypocrite}} entry says otherwise...
** And in the end, it turns out that Frieza knew everything the Heeters were planning, so Elec's a failure in his own field.
* LackOfEmpathy: Elec has absolutely no love or care for anyone but himself. He doesn't care that using the Cerealian Dragon Balls could shorten Gas' lifespan and is willing to endanger the Sugarians and Planet Cereal just to kill Goku and the others. Elec cruelly brushes off Macki's warnings as he is willing to sacrifice Gas' life just to kill Granolah, Monaito, the saiyans and later Frieza just to achieve their goals. Elec forces Gas to push his limits further even if it ages him rapidly with no care for his well-being at all. When Gas starts losing the battle against Goku, Vegeta and Granolah, Elec plans to selfishly abandon him and leave him for dead if he fails. Seeing Gas literally decay before his eyes does nothing for him, as Elec callously screams at Gas go and kill for ''his'' sake.
* LazyBum: Elec claims that fighting is SoLastSeason and that gathering intelligence makes him superior, but he still relies on warriors to do his dirty work and is eventually revealed to be the weakest of the Heeters. What's more, it turns out Frieza has gathered more intel than Elec without drawing attention to himself.
* LoopholeAbuse:
** When Elec wished for Gas to become the Strongest in the universe, it was with his PowerLimiter on, meaning that Gas could grow ''even stronger than that'' with the headband out of the way. This allows the Heeters to regain the upper hand when Granolah initially defeats Gas.
** This ends up being his undoing as well. His wish does not take into account beings outside of Universe 7. When Frieza returns from his training in the Room of Space and Time, he's on a whole different level than Gas.
* ManipulativeBastard: He and his siblings had nothing against Granolah before, but when he starts plotting to kill Frieza and his army, Elec hatches a scheme to have Goku and Vegeta wipe him out. In particular, He successfully fooled all three into conflict.
* NiceJobFixingItVillain: It turns out he called Frieza over to Planet Cereal and planned to have Gas kill him, unaware that Frieza had been off-universe training and had become stronger than ever. When Frieza arrives, he effortlessly kills Gas and Elec.
* NoBodyLeftBehind: Frieza wipes him from existence with one energy blast to his face, after Elec futilely tries punching the former when the tyrant rightly calls out how much Elec ''sucks.''
* NonActionBigBad: As the brains behind the operation, he does not usually sully his own hands in battle. He only attacks with his ray gun when he's sure the victim can't defend themselves anymore, such as murdering Granolah's mother by surprise, attacking a tired Bardock after his battle with Gas and shooting Granolah in the back after he's weakened.
* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Has this deservedly given to him by Frieza, telling the arrogant scumbag that he's not as smart as he thinks he is, even calling him the "weakest" Heeter.
--> '''Frieza''': ''Let me guess, you meant to have Gas kill me. I have bad news for you then. It looks like Gas is dust in the wind. I've known all about your ambitions these past 40 years. I knew, and let you scurry around, all while exploiting you for my army's benefit. Why, there isn't a single thing in this universe I'm not privy to. For example, the fact that the weakest of the Heeters is'' '''you...'''
* TheReveal: Frieza reveals that since the very beginning, ''Elec'' was always the ''weakest'' of the Heeters, not Gas. This information takes Oil and Macki by surprise, before Elec is then killed.
* SmugSmiler: He always has a confident, assured smirk on his face. It's only wiped from his face when he's taken by surprise, like Goku teleporting Gas off planet, depriving Elec of his "muscle". He loses the smugness altogether when Goku, Vegeta and Granolah work together to finally take Gas down. Chapter 87 does away with this entirely, as his plans go up in smoke with Gas's murder at Frieza's hands, shortly before his ''own'' death.
* SmugSnake: He thinks he's smarter than everyone else and claims that his plans will drive him to run the universe, even from Frieza. Frieza reveals that he was only ever a pawn to exploit, killing him after having no further use for the arrogant Heeter.
* SoLastSeason: Elec declares that ruling people through might like Frieza is a method of the past, and ruling through knowledge is the way to go. However, as seen in his {{Hypocrite}} entry, forcing Gas, his main enforcer, to do all his dirty work, demonstrates that he doesn't practice what he preaches.
* TheStoic: Outside of being a bit of a SmugSmiler and having moments of mild surprise, Elec doesn't really emote in contrast to his siblings or his enemies. Starts to become subverted over time as his plans for Gas starts falling apart, all the way to his death.
* ThisCannotBe: Elec's face is screaming this as Gas is finally defeated, despite him being the "strongest" in the universe. Chapter 87 enforces this harder, as Frieza reveals that he always knew Elec as the scheming little weakling that he is and is blasted to hell by the tyrant.
* UnwittingPawn: While he sees Frieza and his army as this, it's actually the other way around. Frieza had already caught on to Elec's ambitions but chose to let him do as he pleased as he was no real threat at the time and still proved himself useful.
* VillainousBreakdown: Breaks down from his calm behavior to manic ranting when it becomes clear that Gas is going to lose, foregoing all pretense of caring about him at all.
* WalkingSpoiler: The revelation that he is not only the real BigBad of the saga, but also that he's responsible for killing Granolah's mother, are major spoilers.
* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: Turns out that Frieza had long since caught on to Elec's schemes to overthrow him, but chose not to do anything since Elec was still useful. But once he's not...
* YouKilledMyFather: Elec, ''not'' a Saiyan, killed Granolah's mother Muezli, and framed Bardock for it.

!! Gas
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_20211120_204212_samsung_internet.jpg]]
%% [[caption-width-right:350:"''"I seek power for Elec's sake alone. I follow his commands in order to make Heeters the supreme organization in the universe."''"]]
[[caption-width-right:350:[[labelnote: Click here to see him as the universe's strongest]]https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fymuxgcwyaaojru_9.jpg[[/labelnote]]]]
Elec's chief enforcer.

* AlasPoorVillain: Gas would do anything for the sake of his siblings, especially Elec. Which makes it all the more frustrating and heartbreaking when Elec shouts out loud that he only ever saw Gas as a means to an end, not an equal. As Gas decays away, Elec is callously screaming at him to at least kill Goku and Vegeta before he dies, citing that Gas is "worthless scum" for wasting time having a breakdown at his current state. Gas himself is shaking from despair all the while.
* ArchEnemy: To Goku and Granolah. The former for his father sharing the same face and beating him in the past. The latter for "taking" Elec's attention away from him.
* BerserkButton: Beneath his stoic demeanour, he has a few. Since he was originally the weakest of the Heeters, he resents any implication that he is in any way not up to the task, resulting in a one-sided rivalry with Granolah. Similarly, any reminders of the time he was nothing but a scared, powerless runt get under his skin (reminiscent of Jiren). Since Elec believed in him when nobody else would, he has complete UndyingLoyalty to his brother and Goku rattles him by implying that Elec may not have Gas's best interests at heart, indirectly comparing him to [[CainAndAbel Raditz]] to prove the point.
* BlackEyesOfEvil: His final decayed form has this trope as a demonstration of how far his sanity has fallen. It's implied that it's not that his eyes turned black, but rather his body has decayed so much that his eyes have shrunk and what we're seeing are his ''eye sockets''.
* BlessedWithSuck: Gas becomes the "strongest" in the universe thanks to the Cerealian Dragonballs but in exchange for all that power, he had to give up a majority of his lifespan. The longer he does battle and the more he is pushed beyond his limits, the more powerful he becomes. However, his life burns out even faster as a result and eventually, this starts taking a physical toll on his body, aging and looking more emaciated, until he becomes a walking zombie that ignores grievous wounds. Vegeta denounces this as a curse rather than a blessing.
--> '''Vegeta''': ''It's like a curse...Cursed to be the universe's strongest...''
* BloodKnight: Starts developing into this after Elec forces Gas to master his true full power. Compared to before where he tries to murder his enemies as quickly as possible, he starts ''prolonging'' his battle with Goku in order to test his new abilities, preferring to torture Goku by hitting him with debris from the environment or holding him underwater in an attempt to drown the Saiyan.
* BodyHorror: As his battle with the heroes nears its end, Gas's appearance becomes more and more twisted and corpse-like, with visible bits of decayed muscles and bones appearing as he takes more and more damage, until he inevitably falls apart after Frieza impales him.
* ButtMonkey: During their cat-and-mouse chase across the universe with Instant Transmission, Goku inadvertently makes a complete laughing stock out of Gas. Over the course of a chapter, Gas just happens to teleport into the path where Monaka was dumping the contents of his dump truck, then he just happens to teleport into the Galactic King's bathtub, then Goku just happens to teleport to the Galactic Prison where Gas is mocked by the inmates for having pissed himself once, and finally Gas is then stranded on a faraway planet with only Whis and Oracle Fish for company by Goku. Being TheComicallySerious, Gas takes none of this humiliation gracefully.
* CarFu: As Gas engages Goku in their final battle, Gas telekinetically throws trains in Goku's path, forcing the Saiyan to dodge or endure the locomotives barrelling towards him. They even fight atop the vehicles for a while.
* CastFromHitPoints: As Gas approaches his peak, his body visibly ages from the stress. The previously bloodthirsty Granolah actually takes pity on him once he's defeated and tells Elec to take care of his brother. At his absolute peak, well, [[BodyHorror it's not pretty.]]
* CrazyJealousGuy: Platonic example. He views himself as all the muscle the Heeters need and he dislikes Granolah for stealing Elec's attention. Once he becomes the new Strongest in the Universe, he dismisses Granolah as unnecessary.
* CruelAndUnusualDeath: Gas does not notice his aging appearance and mangled body until he overhears Elec point out his impending death. Frieza then shows up and then ''drives his arm through the Heeter's torso''. From the look of shock and pain on Gas's face, he suffered in complete agony until he finally decays to nothing but bones and dust.
* DavidVersusGoliath: He battled Bardock, an unremarkable low-class Saiyan warrior on Planet Cereal in the past. Despite being the stronger combatant, Gas somehow lost and the defeat still haunts him, though we do not know the full circumstances yet. HistoryRepeats as the heroes find themselves up against him in the present, now as the Strongest in the Universe, with no clear hope of victory.
* DentedIron: By the end of his fight against Goku, Vegeta and Granolah, Gas is mummified and parts of him are breaking off. The heroes are freaked out that he's able to throw a punch despite having lost a chunk of tissue from his arm.
* DesecratingTheDead: After Gas dissolves to nothing but his skeleton, Frieza heartlessly stomps and crushes the Heeter's skull beneath his feet.
* DragonInChief: Elec is their leader, but Gas is far stronger than him. Particularly after Elec wishes Gas was the strongest in the universe.
* DropTheHammer: He generates a comically huge mallet to thwack Goku from behind at one point.
* EvilCounterpart:
** From his appearance to his hatred of an underdog that could rival his power, Gas is easily one to Vegeta. Remember that when Vegeta was at his most villainous, he tried to gain power through unearned means (Saiyan physiology and Babidi's magic), much like Gas does when he decides to deal with Granolah and the remaining Saiyans. His ultimate power coming at the expense of his physical wellbeing is also akin to Vegeta's Ultra Ego. Finally, both die undignified deaths at the hands of Frieza.
** His PowerLimiter being removed reveals he could be considered one for Broly, as both have immense natural power that sends him into a bulked up berserker state.
* EvilMakesYouUgly: Gas started out with a cute appearance (mildly offset by his perpetual scowling) and upon gaining a power-up he looks semi-handsome. Then Elec removes his restraints and he turns into a raging mass of muscle with horns erupting from his head before overexerting himself to the point where he ages prematurely and becomes emaciated. His last moments has him as a decaying, shambling zombie.
* EyeBeams: Of a sort. Gas' first action after mastering his full power as the strongest in the universe is to glare at Goku and Vegeta while they are weakened. Gravity suddenly increases for the two Saiyans and if they were to lose concentration for an instant, they would be crushed by the technique's sheer power. Luckily, Goku was able to break free after Vegeta shares the last of his energy with him.
* FromNobodyToNightmare: He used to be the weakest of the Heeters and was implied to be rather wimpy and cowardly. By modern day, he's the strongest by a huge margin even before becoming the WorldsStrongestMan. Turns out that he was gaslighted by his own brother; Elec was actually the ''weakest''.
* HeroKiller: He killed Monaito by surprise with a energy beam.
* HornedHumanoid: After Elec removes his power limiter, he grows horns on the side of his head which resemble his headband, which he retains once he fully masters his power.
* InstantExpert: {{Averted}}. Like Granolah, Gas gains a plethora of new techniques once he is wished to be the strongest in the universe, including Hakai and Instant Transmission, but they are less refined due to his lack of experience. Even Granolah, who only had these powers slightly longer, already has more finesse with these moves than Gas, which turns the tide of their battle. Goku also flexes his superior mastery of Instant Transmission by leading Gas on a teleporting chase across the universe before leaving him stranded on a distant planet.
* ImplacableMan: Keep coming for the lives of Granolah, Goku, Vegeta and Monaito even as an almost mummified zombie. He ''does'' take damage from their attacks, enough to expose his decaying muscles and bones, but he simply doesn't even care and keep attacking them anyway, diving through his own beam or ''punching Goku with his broken arm''.
* LeanAndMean: Elec's wish for Gas to become the strongest also causes the boy to spontaneously grow to adult size. In his new form, Gas is tall, lanky and exceptionally cruel with his newfound powers. He briefly bulks up massively when his PowerLimiter is removed, once he regains his sense of self he condenses back down and reverts to his adult form, now with all the power he had in that form. His final moments see him becoming a horrifying variant of this trope, relentlessly attacking even as he's decayed into a zombie-like withered state.
* MarathonBoss: It takes a long, hard fought battle through many transformations with the combined forces of Vegeta, Goku, Granolah, Oatmeel and Monaito to finally take down Gas after the former three fought him multiple times. Until they don't and he get back up a little while longer to ultimately be put down by Frieza.
* MindOverMatter: Another one of Gas' techniques is to grab objects, whether existing or generated, and hurl them at his opponents. They fly at such high speeds that it's hard to dodge.
* NoNonsenseNemesis: After Goku, Vegeta, and Granolah nearly beat each other to death, Elec orders the newly empowered Gas to kill them before they can recover because they're a major threat. Gas also shows this, trying to finish the trio as quickly as possible.
* NotSoStoic: Beneath his emotionless exterior, Gas is very insecure about his strength and his "stoic badass" attitude is his way of overcompensating for his past failures.
* PerpetualFrowner: He always has a serious scowl on his face and never smiles, unlike his more affable siblings. This starts to become subverted over time, as he starts to revel in his newfound status as the "strongest in the universe" and sadistically tortures Goku, all with a smug smile. And as he is reduced to skin and bones, he always has a deranged grin on his face.
* PintSizedPowerhouse: According to Elec, Gas is the strongest warrior among them. He's also the shortest of the band, even shorter than his sister Macki. He rapidly grows in height after Elec's wish to Toronbo.
* PowerLimiter: That headband on his head controls his power and sanity, meaning that its removal will drive him insane and more powerful as well. Since the wish to become the Strongest in the universe was made with the headband ''on'', this allows Gas to tap into further heights of power once it's removed and he's properly controlled himself.
* PowerAtAPrice: Like Granolah, Gas becomes the strongest in the universe in exchange for a majority of his lifespan. Unlike Granolah, he ends paying the ultimate price. And sadly for Gas, he doesn't know that his newfound power will end up killing him until it's revealed accidentally by Elec.
* TheQuietOne: Gas is the least talkative of his siblings. This changes after his power-up and he becomes more of a boastful SmugSuper.
* RapidAging: After losing to True Ultra Instinct Goku and tapping into his full reserves, Gas's body becomes decrepit but no less dangerous. Tapping into more and more burns away his very life force until he is essentially a walking corpse. Chapter 87 has him decay to dust after Frieza deals a mighty blow.
* SpontaneousWeaponCreation: Gas showcases the ability to spawn meticulous ki weapons after Elec wishes him to be the strongest in the universe. His arsenal includes a morningstar mace, a four-pronged trident, an axe, a shield, a rope-dart, and a large mallet. According to Monaito, Gas always had these powers, even before the wish.
* SquishyWizard:
** In his "final transformed state", Gas becomes even more powerful than he was before, being able to overpower Ultra Instinct Omen Goku when he previously wasn't able to. He also has new powers such as being able to generate giant energy constructs of his arms and legs. But thanks to the toll the power-up took on his body, he doesn't seem to be anywhere near as durable as he was before, such that a kick to the gut by Goku was enough to keel him over.
** It's even worse once his body's reduced to an emaciated, zombie-like state. While he's still as powerful as ever, Goku and Vegeta's hits are literally causing his body to fall apart.
* StrippedToTheBone: After Frieza kills him, Gas's body starts to decay until all that's left is a skeleton, which then proceeds to turn to dust.
* SuperSpeed: As expected for the new strongest in the universe, he demonstrates ridiculous speed and reflexes. His best feat of speed, however, is crossing an entire galaxy in only 20 minutes without teleportation, just blasting at full throttle through the vacuum of space.
* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: It's fair to say that his weak retorts to the Galactic Bandits' heckling [[BadLiar convinced absolutely nobody]].
-->'''Gas:''' I DID NOT WET MYSELF! It was only a few drops because I had been holding it in for so long!
* ThisCannotBe: During the final stages of his battle with Goku and Vegeta, he overhears the ''price'' that comes with being the "strongest" in the universe. He stops to contemplate his incoming death and as he's dealing with the shock, he's yelled at by Elec to at least go down fighting before he kicks the bucket, citing him as "worthless". This causes Gas to realize that Goku was right: his brother really ''didn't'' care about him.
* TorsoWithAView: How an empowered Frieza eventually does him in.
* UndyingLoyalty: Gas is unshakably loyal to Elec and serves his will unquestioningly. This starts to waver towards the final days of his life but before anything else can happen, Frieza shows up and kills him.
* UngratefulBastard: After he is spared from death by Granolah as detailed above, Gas returns his kindness by mortally wounding Monaito and gleefully asks Granolah if he's still willing to stick to his "soft-hearted claim".
* TheUnreveal: Gas is the only one who doesn't fight Granolah, which leaves his capabilities in the dark. We do eventually see him take action after becoming the new Strongest in the Universe, but we still have yet to see his natural battle power. And with his death, we never will.
* UnskilledButStrong: His ascension to the strongest mortal in Universe 7 has given Gas an arsenal of powers that he doesn't fully grasp because of his inexperience with them, giving Granolah the edge in their bout because of his longer experience with them comparatively. While Gas is quick to start becoming StrongAndSkilled, he still loses his first round with Granolah because of this, at least until Elec removes his PowerLimiter. He goes completely berserk at first, but once he regains his sanity, he now has access to his full power on top of having learned to become more skilled.
** This trope comes back to bite him once again in his battle against Goku, who is much weaker and unable to even tap into his full power. Thanks to having ''years'' to hone Instant Transmission, Goku leads Gas across the universe in a wild goose chase before dumping him on a random planet and heading back to Cereal by repeatedly using Instant Transmission fast enough that Gas is unable to lock-on to his Ki before he’s out of his range. Gas's lacking mastery of the technique forces him to fly back across the galaxy to return, giving the heroes time to gather and find a way to beat him. In fact, Gas would not even have been able to guess where Goku ''was'' without Whis's directions.
* VillainousBreakdown: As the fight between Gas and the Saiyans approaches its climax, Gas hears about his impending death from Elec. Noticing his haggard appearance in a nearby lake, Gas is shocked to his core, as he now wrestles with his ''very short'' and ''rapidly dwindling'' mortality. Gas is rocked even further when Elec callously demonstrates that he ''never'' loved him. The final straw is Frieza showing up and this drives Gas to full despair as he tries attacking the tyrant, only to die instantly.
* WalkingSpoiler: The revelation that ''he'' - not Granolah - is the antagonist Goku and Vegeta have to defeat, is a major spoiler.
* WithGreatPowerComesGreatInsanity: Throughout the battle, Gas becomes more bloodthirsty as he draws on more and more power. Chapter 87 has him grinning like a demented demon as he starts decaying like a zombie and ignores his wounds. He only comes back to sanity when Elec reveals that he's ''dying''.
* WorldsStrongestMan: Elec wishes for Gas to be the strongest in the universe and Gas proves it by dominating Granolah and Goku. Since this wish came after Granolah's, Gas is far stronger than Granolah. Even after Goku and Vegeta power up to Ultra Instinct and Ultra Ego respectively, he can still keep up with them despite the power of their strongest divine forms. This power is not without a cost; drawing on own his life force ages Gas considerably and eventually, he'll die. Not that he knew about this. Or have it be told to him...
* YourDaysAreNumbered: It's strongly implied that Gas sacrificed even more life span than Granolah to gain a power that can surpass him. In Chapter 85, his "final transformation" made him look like an old man. Confirmed in Chapter 87, as drawing on more power has Gas hanging on by a thread; Elec reveals that the wish will essentially kill him in time. Gas is shocked to hear this, not knowing that he was aging and decaying away until he pauses to take a good look at himself.

%% [[caption-width-right:350:some caption text]]

* BigOlEyebrows: Macki has quite prominent eyebrows, contrasted against Gas and Oil, who have bald Neanderthal ridges.
* DarkChick: Macki is the only female member of the Heeters and plays the damsel in distress without drawing suspicion.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Macki truly cares about the well-being of her brothers; especially Gas. She would sometimes protest against Elec's ideas of putting Gas' life in danger just to make him the "strongest" fighter. Macki seems to be the closest to Oil as they love hanging out together and are very supportive and protective of each other. It is subverted with Elec, as Macki questions her loyalty to him from time to time and hates his cruelty and abuse towards her, Gas and Oil. [[spoiler:When Frieza kills Elec, she's more terrified of the tyrant than she is horrified by her brother's death.]]
* EvenEvilHasStandards: Macki doesn't agree with Elec's insane methods and is the only one who is against the idea of using the Cerealian Dragon Balls to make Gas stronger that could endanger his life, like Granolah did with his wish. Macki also gets disgusted by Zuno's lecherous tendencies and hates Elec's lack of empathy and abuse towards Gas.
* GenkiGirl: She's cute, flamboyant and excitable, which would almost make her likeable if she wasn't a leading member of a powerful criminal organisation.
* OnlySaneMan: She is this to the Heeters and the only one to have a caring side and redeemable traits.
* RedemptionRejection: Macki and Oil eventually realize that Elec is a horrible brother and turn against him, but instead of parting on friendly terms with the heroes, they [[spoiler: opt to work for Frieza]].
* SmugSmiler: Like her brother Elec, she's usually seen cockily grinning.
* TheSmurfettePrinciple: Macki is the only woman in the group.
* TrademarkFavouriteFood: Grubrolls. She's excited to ask Zuno where the tastiest in the universe can be found.
* WoundedGazelleGambit: As part of Elec's plan to lure the surviving Saiyans to Planet Cereal, Macki deceives Chi-Chi and Bulma with a ruse that she and Oil are being terrorised by Granolah, and beg for their husbands' help in defeating the monster. Despite their suspicions, Goku and Vegeta agree to accompany Macki to the planet in order to face the man claiming to be the Strongest in the Universe.

[[folder:Granolah]]
!!Granolah (グラノラKan, Guranora)
[[quoteright:286:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/granolah.png]]

A bounty hunter, and the titular main antagonist-turned-protagonist of the Granolah the Survivor Saga. Granolah is the only remaining member of the Cerealians, a race wiped out by the Saiyans long ago. He is introduced stealing OG-73, the infamous android used by Moro, for a bounty offered by the information broker Elec.

He is aided by an AI in his headset called Oatmeel.

* HasAType: Turns out he has a thing for feisty women like Bulma and Macki, which is why he'll answer more than one question for them if they kill him.

'''Voiced by (Latin American Spanish):''' Arturo Castañeda

* GagBoobs: Has huge nipples.

* MultinationalTeam: Notably, the team includes members of every prominent race featured in the series: Saiyan (Goku, Vegeta), Human (Krillin, Tien, Master Roshi, [[HalfHumanHybrid Gohan again]]), Namekian (Piccolo), Android (17, 18), Frieza's race, and Majin (Majin Buu).

* MultinationalTeam: Notably, the team includes members of every prominent race featured in the series: Saiyan (Goku, Vegeta, Gohan), Human (Krillin, Tien, Master Roshi, [[HalfHumanHybrid Gohan]]), Namekian (Piccolo), Android (17, 18), Frieza's race, and Majin (Majin Buu)

* MultinationalTeam: Notably, the team includes members of every prominent race featured in the series: Saiyan (Goku, Vegeta, Gohan), Human (Krillin, Tien, Master Roshi), Namekian (Piccolo), Android (17, 18), Frieza's race, and Majin (Majin Buu)

* AsskickingEqualsAuthority: Monaka is officially the team captain for U7 during the Champa Saga since he is the strongest fighter in U7 according to Beerus. [[spoiler: It's all a big MotivationalLie. He's actually quite weak and faints at the sight of fighting]].

* ManipulativeBastard: While they had nothing against Granolah before, when he starts plotting to kill Frieza and his army, they hatch a scheme to have Goku and Vegeta wipe him out. In particular, Elec and Macki succeed in fooling all three into conflict.

* WeakButSkilled: Anyone who isn't a Saiyan, Android, or Frieza falls into this category.

--> '''Beerus:''' It's astounding, My good Whis; Mr. Vegeta's singing is actually ''worse'' than yours.\\
'''Whis:''' (nervous laugh) Oh... that's quite hurtful, Lord Beerus.

* TheReveal: Frieza reveals that since the very beginning, ''Elec'' was always the ''weakest'' of the Heeters, not Gas. This information takes Oil and Machi by surprise, before Elec is then killed.

* {{Bishonen}}: Perhaps the most standard one in the entire franchise. [[WordOfGod Akira Toriyama]] said that he was specifically created to be a "good lookin' feller" in order to [[CastFullOfPrettyBoys keep up with modern tastes]].

* AnAxeToGrind: He almost decapitates Goku with a ki axe, after binding all four of his limbs with weighted blocks.

* BigBadEnsemble: While Granolah's grudge is a major driving force of the arc, Elec's mechanizations are as much of a driving force of the conflict and he has far bigger plans. [[spoiler:After Granolah realize Elec was his mother's murderer, Elec becomes the sole BigBad.]]

* MaleGaze: Her debut (and only) episode emphasizes her rear shortly after her introduction, as well as the fact ShesGotLegs.

* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Has this deservedly given to him by Frieza, telling the arrogant scumbag that he's not as smart as he thinks he is, even calling him the "weakest" Heeter.
--> '''Frieza''': ''Let me guess, you meant to have Gas kill me. I have bad news for you then. It looks like Gas is dust in the wind. I've known all about your ambitions these past 40 years. I knew, and let you scurry around, all while exploiting you for my army's benefit. Why, there isn't a single thing in this universe I'm not privy to. For example, the fact that the weakest of the Heeters is'' '''you...'''

* TheReveal: Frieza reveals that since the very beginning, ''Elec'' was always the ''weakest'' of the Heeters, not Gas. This information takes Oil and Machi by surprise, before Elec is then killed.
* TheStoic: Outside of being a bit of a SmugSmiler and having moments of mild surprise, Elec doesn't really emote in contrast to his siblings or his enemies. Starts to become subverted over time as his plans for Gas starts falling apart, all the way to his death.

[[folder:The Heeters]]

* RapidAging: After losing to Ultra Instinct Omen Goku and tapping into his full reserves, Gas's body becomes decrepit but no less dangerous. Tapping into more and more burns away his very life force until he is essentially a walking corpse. Chapter 87 has him decay to dust after Frieza deals a mighty blow.
