Daizenshuu 7: Character Dictionary
Right, so I translated this years ago for Kanzentai, and it didn't make the move over to Kanzenshuu for one reason or another. Since my other Daizenshuu 7 translations are posted on the forum already (see my Guide Guide), I might as well post this back up for completion's sake. I haven't updated or revised this translation at all, so there might be some mistakes, and the naming conventions match what was used back on Kanzentai, rather than Kanzenshuu's current standard character name spellings or the ones I use personally. All entries have been re-organized from the original Japanese alphabetical order into English alphabetical order.

Anime: A run-of-the-mill low-level warrior, born on Planet Vegeta. Since Paragus mentioned Bardock’s name in “Burn Up!! A Close—Intense—Super-Fierce Battle”, it seems that his bravery was well-known among the Saiyan warriors. Despite being a lowest-level warrior, his battle power is close to 10 thousand. His battle power increased each time he invaded planets and came back on the blink of death. Still, he has little love towards his son, and insulted the new-born Kakarot for his low battle power. The blood-stained bandana wrapped around his head is a memento of his comrade Toma.
Techniques:The Kanassaian Tooro gave him the ability to predict the future. With this ability, he knew of the Saiyans’ extermination, Freeza’s betrayal, and the eventual confrontation between Goku and Freeza. He also uses the same techniques as a normal Saiyan warrior, such as the Oozaru transformation, energy bullets, etc.
Battles: When he took control of Planet Kanassa, he was struck by Tooro’s counterattack, and gained the ability to see the future. He also defeated Dodoria’s men, after Dodoria killed his comrades.

Then in his battle with Freeza, he single-handedly challenged Freeza in order to change the future, but was sucked up by Freeza’s super gigantic energy ball, and was scattered through space along with Planet Vegeta. (Daizenshuu 6, p.162)

From then on, he harbored a grudge against Satan, and used his financial assets to develop bio-warriors, but created Bio-Broli at the same time. Perhaps because of his privilege, he is surprisingly fat for someone who used to want to be a martial artist. One of his faults is that he gets common sayings and adages wrong?! (Daizenshuu 6, p.132)

A god who supervises the North Galaxy
History:For a long time now he has continued to watch over the North Area’s galaxy. In Age 767 he was caught up in Cell’s self-destruction and died. However, since he was originally a resident of the afterlife anyway, his life hasn’t really changed too much.
First Appearance: chapter 210
Special Characteristics: Using the antennas on his head, he can check out the positions of the planets scattered throughout the vast universe. He has the ability to instantly create anything, and once made Goku a Kaio-mark dougi.

His greatest hobby is telling puns, and continues to think up new puns day and night. A master of the martial arts, he only trains those who cross the Serpent Road. Also, as a second test, those who want his training must make him laugh with a joke. This is a rather eccentric test, but also a very harsh one for any true martial artist. He is also the one who taught Goku the Kaio-ken and Genki-Dama. Goku wasn’t the last person he trained either: Piccolo and the other mighty warriors who live on Earth visited him to receive his training. (Daizenshuu 2, p.175/Daizenshuu 4, p.55)

First Appearance: chapter 437
Special Characteristics: Despite his small and weak appearance, he gives off the sense that he is concealing great power. He has an overly serious personality, and is excessively self-conscious. He also has telepathic powers, and can communicate with people over long distances. He supervised the East Area, and though originally there were 5 Kaioshins, he and his attendant Kibito are all that are left now, and so are the grand gods who stand over all. (Daizenshuu 2, p.176)
Techniques:Kiai cannon, paralysis, etc
Battles: His strength is far superior to the Super Namekian Piccolo, but he was still the weakest out of the 5 Kaioshins who used to exist. He was beaten up to the verge of death by Majin Buu both before and after Buu’s revival.

A person who will help you out with anything, he gives out numerous items including the Super God Water, Senzu, and Kinto-un. Having lived for over 800 years, he is very patient, enough so to spend 3 years on a single pupil. His hobbies are to watch things in the lower world, and to raise Senzu. There are some cute aspects to him as well, such as how he hates dogs. (Daizenshuu 2, p.174)
Battles: Most of his battles are training, such as when he trained Kame-sennin for 3 years, Goku for 3 days, or Krillin and co. for an unknown number of days. Rather than battle enemies, he’s a master who trains those who become his pupil.

Shenlong
A dragon created by the Earth’s God

He was killed once by Piccolo Daimao, but for Goku’s sake God and Mister Popo revived him. When God and Piccolo merged and Dende became God, he became able to grant up to 3 wishes, though only 2 when reviving dead people.
First Appearance: chapter 20
Special Characteristics: He’s created by God breathing a soul into the dragon model which Mister Popo created. When the 7 dragonballs are gathered and you recite the chant “Come forth Shenlong, and grant my wish!”, the sky will suddenly become pitch black even if it’s noon. A giant Oriental dragon will then appear amidst a flash of lightning, and grant any wish, though only one. Even if you wish is to bring a person back to life, or to become a billionaire, he will treat it just the same. He will always grant the wish, no matter how evil the person making it is, but it is impossible for him to grant a wish that exceeds God’s power, or to revive a person who has died twice. Also, if you make him wait a long time after summoning him without making any wish, he will sometimes disappear without granting any wish. Furthermore, because the dragonballs’ life is shared with their creator, if their creator God dies or vanishes, the dragonballs will become ordinary stones, like they do after granting a wish. They will regain their effectiveness again until a Dragon Clansman with the power to create a new Shenlong breathes their power into them. (Daizenshuu 4, p.32)
Shenlong (Porunga)
A dragon created by the Eldest of Planet Namek
History:Because the old Eldest reached the end of his lifespan and died, they became stone balls. However, the Eldest was temporarily revived by the Earth Shenlong’s power, and he charged Muuri, one of the seven elders of old Planet Nameki, to become the new Eldest, and in this way the dragonballs regained their light. After the people of old Planet Namek migrated to the new Planet Namek, they were powered up through Muuri’s power, becoming able to restore multiple dead people.
First Appearance: chapter 292
Special Characteristics: He boasts size over ten times greater than the Earth’s Shenlong, and his appearance is extremely bizarre. He has the form not so much of a dragon, but rather more like that of a demonic god. He is much more generous than the Earth’s Shenlong, in that he can grant up to 3 wishes, and revive the same person multiple times. However, when summoning him he will only respond if the chant is in the Namekian language, and so you must use a Namekian to tell him your wishes. He’s prudent in comparison to the Earth’s Shenlong, since he makes the conditional announcement that he will “grant any wish that I am capable of”. He also has some human traits, such as being shy, or making jokes. Like the Earth’s Shenlong, he will disappear if he has to wait a long time without any wishes being made. The title “Porunga” means “the god of dreams” in Namekian. (Daizenshuu 4, p.34)

When Vegeta and Nappa came to Earth, and when Freeza and his men attacked Planet Namek, he always put up a good fight. Then during the battle with Cell, No.16’s destruction caused him to transform into a Super Saiyan 2.

Shenlong
A dragon created by the Earth’s God

He was killed once by Piccolo Daimao, but for Goku’s sake God and Mister Popo revived him. When God and Piccolo merged and Dende became God, he became able to grant up to 3 wishes, though only 2 when reviving dead people.
First Appearance: chapter 20
Special Characteristics: He’s created by God breathing a soul into the dragon model which Mister Popo created. When the 7 dragonballs are gathered and you recite the chant “Come forth Shenlong, and grant my wish!”, the sky will suddenly become pitch black even if it’s noon. A giant Oriental dragon will then appear amidst a flash of lightning, and grant any wish, though only one. Even if you wish is to bring a person back to life, or to become a billionaire, he will treat it just the same. He will always grant the wish, no matter how evil the person making it is, but it is impossible for him to grant a wish that exceeds God’s power, or to revive a person who has died twice. Also, if you make him wait a long time after summoning him without making any wish, he will sometimes disappear without granting any wish. Furthermore, because the dragonballs’ life is shared with their creator, if their creator God dies or vanishes, the dragonballs will become ordinary stones, like they do after granting a wish. They will regain their effectiveness again until a Dragon Clansman with the power to create a new Shenlong breathes their power into them. (Daizenshuu 4, p.32)
Shenlong (Porunga)
A dragon created by the Eldest of Planet Namek
History:Because the old Eldest reached the end of his lifespan and died, they became stone balls. However, the Eldest was temporarily revived by the Earth Shenlong’s power, and he charged Muuri, one of the seven elders of old Planet Nameki, to become the new Eldest, and in this way the dragonballs regained their light. After the people of old Planet Namek migrated to the new Planet Namek, they were powered up through Muuri’s power, becoming able to restore multiple dead people.
First Appearance: chapter 292
Special Characteristics: He boasts size over ten times greater than the Earth’s Shenlong, and his appearance is extremely bizarre. He has the form not so much of a dragon, but rather more like that of a demonic god. He is much more generous than the Earth’s Shenlong, in that he can grant up to 3 wishes, and revive the same person multiple times. However, when summoning him he will only respond if the chant is in the Namekian language, and so you must use a Namekian to tell him your wishes. He’s prudent in comparison to the Earth’s Shenlong, since he makes the conditional announcement that he will “grant any wish that I am capable of”. He also has some human traits, such as being shy, or making jokes. Like the Earth’s Shenlong, he will disappear if he has to wait a long time without any wishes being made. The title “Porunga” means “the god of dreams” in Namekian. (Daizenshuu 4, p.34)

What she likes most is money and to watch fights, and she normally floats on her crystal ball. However, she’s not a mere libertine, but also works under Enma Daio’s orders as an intermediary between this world and the afterlife.

Battles: According to the Famicom game walkthrough video “Plan to Exterminate the Saiyan”, it seems that King Vegeta was the one who wiped out the Tsufuru. With that kind of power, he ultimately carried out an uprising against Freeza but was defeated. (Daizenshuu 5, p.18)
Vegetto
An individual formed through Vegeta and Goku merging together

As Goku tried in vain to think of something, Vegeta appeared. Goku pleaded that they merge, and so Vegetto was born. Achieving a power-up so great that he can make disparaging remarks about Majin Buu, he demonstrates his strength. He displays overwhelming strength, and even after being turned into a candy ball, his attack power remains the same. By attacking in his small candy ball state and piercing through Buu’s mouth, he drives Buu to the wall. Then when he entered Buu’s body, he split back into Goku and Vegeta, even though this was supposedly impossible. Afterwards, the two never became Vegetto again.
First Appearance: 503
Special Characteristics: Being a combination of two Saiyans, his appearance hasn’t changed all that much, and feels like a combination of Goku’s face and Vegeta’s hairstyle.

He is capable of transforming from his normal state into a Super Saiyan form. He has certain Special Characteristics: , including that his strength doesn’t change even if his shape does.

Anime: In the original story, after Goku and Vegeta merge they transform into Super Vegetto straight away. However, in the anime version a fierce battle unfolds between Buu and normal Vegetto as well. Furthermore, after transforming into Super Vegetto, he uses Vegeta’s Big Bang Attack against Buu. Incidentally, merged characters such as Vegetto are performed by having both voice actors perform at the same time. This was the original creator’s idea.
*Veku

After being healed with senzu, she follows after Gohan and the others, but stayed behind when she became a burden. It seems that by this time her feelings for Gohan had already budded.

Since he longed to get married, he tried to use the dragonballs to cure his weakness towards women. Though he ultimately didn’t get his wish granted, he befriended Bulma. After the destruction of the Red Ribbon Army, he followed in Goku and Krillin’s footsteps and entered the Kame-sen School, polishing his skill as a martial artist. When Vegeta and Nappa attacked Earth, he died when a Saibaiman self-destructed. He trained under Kaio, but was never given an opportunity to shine.

What she likes most is money and to watch fights, and she normally floats on her crystal ball. However, she’s not a mere libertine, but also works under Enma Daio’s orders as an intermediary between this world and the afterlife. Perhaps because of this, her underlings are all some variety of ghost or monster. (Daizenshuu 2, p.173/Daizenshuu 4, p.69)

On Planet Namek, Freeza’s attack caused him to shed tears for the first time, and he died. After being revived, he ended up together with Bulma for some reason. When Cell attacked, he fought as a warrior of Earth along with Goku and the others.

After his revival, like always he trains every day in order to become stronger.
First Appearance: chapter 204
Special Characteristics: He is extremely proud, and as a Saiyan elite his personality was such that he couldn’t stand not being number one.

Tenkaichi Budoukai: At the 25th Tenkaichi Budoukai, he abandoned his first match. He participated in the 28th Tenkaichi Budoukai.
Anime: He is more rough-mannered than in the original story, and while on his way to Earth he wipes out Planet Arlia together with its dictator. After the battle with Freeza, he followed Goku’s ki into space, and singlehandedly wiped out Planet Litt. After that he returned to Earth, and a shower scene of him was even shown. When he met the family of intestinal worms while inside Buu’s body, it is revealed that he hates worms. In the movies, he performs Fusion with Goku and becomes the super warrior Gogeta.

Battles: According to the Famicom game walkthrough video “Plan to Exterminate the Saiyan”, it seems that King Vegeta was the one who wiped out the Tsufuru. With that kind of power, he ultimately carried out an uprising against Freeza but was defeated. (Daizenshuu 5, p.18)
Vegetto
An individual formed through Vegeta and Goku merging together
History:In order to oppose Majin Buu, who had displayed overwhelming power by absorbing Gotenks and Piccolo, Goku tried to merge with Gohan using the Potara which he received from the Elder Kaioshin, but Gohan himself ended up being absorbed. As Goku tried in vain to think of something, Vegeta appeared. Goku pleaded that they merge, and so Vegetto was born. Achieving a power-up so great that he can make disparaging remarks about Majin Buu, he demonstrates his strength. He displays overwhelming strength, and even after being turned into a candy ball, his attack power remains the same. By attacking in his small candy ball state and piercing through Buu’s mouth, he drives Buu to the wall. Then when he entered Buu’s body, he split back into Goku and Vegeta, even though this was supposedly impossible. Afterwards, the two never became Vegetto again.
First Appearance: 503
Special Characteristics: Being a combination of two Saiyans, his appearance hasn’t changed all that much, and feels like a combination of Goku’s face and Vegeta’s hairstyle.

He is capable of transforming from his normal state into a Super Saiyan form. He has certain Special Characteristics: , including that his strength doesn’t change even if his shape does. He was born only once, and battled Majin Buu (Daizenshuu 2, p.113).
Techniques:ki blade, barrier, etc
Battles: He squares off against Majin Buu, who had absorbed Gohan and Piccolo, and demonstrates overwhelming strength.
Anime: In the original story, after Goku and Vegeta merge they transform into Super Vegetto straight away. However, in the anime version a fierce battle unfolds between Buu and normal Vegetto as well. Furthermore, after transforming into Super Vegetto, he uses Vegeta’s Big Bang Attack against Buu. Incidentally, merged characters such as Vegetto are performed by having both voice actors perform at the same time. This was the original creator’s idea.

Fusion warrior

Yakon
Babidi’s underling
First Appearance: chapter 450
Special Characteristics: Called a demonic beast, he’s a monster which even Kaioshin is afraid of. He prefers pitch-black darkness, and so can see even in the dark. Though he tried to eat Goku and co., his most favorite meal is light.
Battles: He squared off against Goku on Stage 2. On the Planet of Darkness, which Babidi prepared for them, he used the darkness to his own advantage. What’s more, he sucked up Super Saiyan Goku’s light energy, but Goku then put out an overwhelming amount of energy. Yakon was unable to suck it all up, and so he ruptured and died.
Yamcha
A martial artist
History:Born in the year Age 733. Height: 183 cm, Weight: 68 kilos. Calling himself “Hyena Yamcha”, he was a bandit who made his living carrying off the money and capsules of anyone who crossed his territory, a desert region. He first met Goku, Bulma, and Oolong when he attacked them in this way, and this is also when he learned about the dragonballs. Since he longed to get married, he tried to use the dragonballs to cure his weakness towards women. Though he ultimately didn’t get his wish granted, he befriended Bulma. After the destruction of the Red Ribbon Army, he followed in Goku and Krillin’s footsteps and entered the Kame-sen School, polishing his skill as a martial artist. When Vegeta and Nappa attacked Earth, he died when a Saibaiman self-destructed. He trained under Kaio, but was never given an opportunity to shine.
First Appearance: chapter 7
Special Characteristics: At first he was so weak around women that he couldn’t even stand to look at them, but this was cured as he spent time with Bulma. He’s something of a pathetic character, always getting done-in during battles. (Daizenshuu 2, p.128, p.129, p.152)
Techniques:Roga-FuFu-Ken, Sokidan, etc

In the first round of the 22nd tournament, he lost when Tenshinhan broke his leg, rendering him unable to continue the match.

Anime: He also had a part-time job as a professional baseball player. He acted like a real slugger, hitting 3 consecutive home runs (Daizenshuu 3, p.162). In “”The Legend of Shenlong”, he was commonly known as Hyena Yamcha. It seems that at the time he was quite the scoundrel (Daizenshuu 6, p.16).

He declared that it would take Goku 3 years to get his license. He was deeply moved by Goku and Piccolo’s power when they flew through the air to save a kindergarten school bus that was caught in a landside.

Re: Daizenshuu 7: Character Dictionary
OK, that should be everything.
In retrospect, there was probably some perfectly rational reason for why General Blue is alphabetized under "B" as "Blue, General", while Satan and Popo are under "M" as "Mister Satan" and "Mister Popo"...but it's been lost to the mists of time.

Re: Daizenshuu 7: Character Dictionary
Cool, I've been reading this on the defunct site but this makes it easier to find now.
Blue's hobby being karaoke is just really random and amusing to me.
I also thought TPP was really short like the same height as vegeta but he's 5 foot 10.

Re: Daizenshuu 7: Character Dictionary
Well, most of the people he stands next to are pretty tiny(Goku, Upa, Karin, Red). It's hard to say.Son Edo wrote:I also thought TPP was really short like the same height as vegeta but he's 5 foot 10.
