The following characters appear in Akira Toriyama's ''[[Dragon Ball]]'' manga series. | '''Artificial Humans''' (人造人間; ''jinzōningen'') are beings created to resemble or act like humans, but the term itself does not specifically distinguish between either "Android" or "Cyborg" types. [[Akira Toriyama]] uses this term to describe all such beings seen throughout the series created by the scientist [[Doctor Gero]]. Each artificial human created has been assigned a specific development number by Doctor Gero, with the exception of [[Cell]], which is typically how they are referred to (i.e. [[Artificial Human No. 17|No. 17]] & [[Artificial Human No. 18|No. 18]]). The "Technology" section of ''[[Dragon Ball Daizenshuu 4|Daizenshuu 4]]'' further divides the artificial humans up into two separate groups, a "Biotechnological-type"<ref>{{Cite guidebook|Title="Technology"|Book=8|Page=p. 160}}</ref> (バイオタイプ; ''baio-taipu'') and "Mechanical-type" (メカタイプ; ''meka-taipu''). | ||

The following artificial human characters appear in Akira Toriyama's ''[[Dragon Ball]]'' manga series. [[Dragon Ball Chapter 367]] clarified that Doctor Gero created and ultimately discarded models for all of the numbers through 20, including those not seen in the series itself.<ref>{{cite manga|Chp=367}}</ref> While the first eight models were designed to aid the [[Red Ribbon Army]] in their world conquest, the models after that point were designed explicitly to take revenge on [[Son Goku]].<ref>{{cite guidebook|Title="Who are the artificial humans?!"|Book=11|Page=p. 98}}</ref> | |||

This page is incomplete. Kanzenshuu wiki team members are aware that they must edit this page to add missing information and complete it. Reason: What else do we want to add here? How in-depth? Are we listing Dr. Slump characters? Probably, right? What about the Super characters from Universe 3? Need to check and see what terms are used to refer to them. Add images, check/verify voice credits.. |
Artificial Humans (人造人間; jinzōningen) are beings created to resemble or act like humans, but the term itself does not specifically distinguish between either "Android" or "Cyborg" types. Akira Toriyama uses this term to describe all such beings seen throughout the series created by the scientist Doctor Gero. Each artificial human created has been assigned a specific development number by Doctor Gero, with the exception of Cell, which is typically how they are referred to (i.e. No. 17 & No. 18). The "Technology" section of Daizenshuu 4 further divides the artificial humans up into two separate groups, a "Biotechnological-type"[1] (バイオタイプ; baio-taipu) and "Mechanical-type" (メカタイプ; meka-taipu).
Original Serialization / Manga Characters
The following artificial human characters appear in Akira Toriyama's Dragon Ball manga series. Dragon Ball Chapter 367 clarified that Doctor Gero created and ultimately discarded models for all of the numbers through 20, including those not seen in the series itself.[2] While the first eight models were designed to aid the Red Ribbon Army in their world conquest, the models after that point were designed explicitly to take revenge on Son Goku.[3]
As described in the manga, Artificial Humans Nos. 1-7 and 9-12 were problem-ridden failures,[4] while Artificial Humans Nos. 13-15 were closer to the final form. Toriyama did not provide designs in the manga for these models, instead using only a placeholder image.[5]
Biotechnological-type
 |
Artificial Human No. 8 (人造人間８号)
A fully artificial human created by Doctor Gero.[a] Murasaki unleashes him as his secret weapon to defeat Goku, but the kindhearted No. 8 quickly befriends him instead. Goku nicknames him "Hatchan", a combination of the word "hachi" (Japanese for "eight") and the honorific "chan". |
 |
Artificial Human No. 17 (人造人間１７号)
No. 17 is a cruel artificial human who is equipped with an eternal energy engine and thinks of battles as fun games. Along with his twin sister, No. 18, they are both built from modified human bases with the sole purpose of being food to allow Cell to reach his perfect form. |
 |
Artificial Human No. 18 (人造人間１８号)
An eternal model type artificial human, No. 18 is a beautiful girl with a harsh personality who hates unfashionable things. She is the twin sister of No. 17, and together they were both designed as food to allow Cell to reach his perfect form. She eventually settles down, marrying Kuririn and giving birth to their daughter, Marron. |
 |
Cell (セル)
Cell is a biotechnological being created by Doctor Gero from the cells of Son Goku and other powerful warriors that were collected during their battles on Earth. Following Doctor Gero's death, Cell's development is overseen and completed by his laboratory computer. However, by the time he is fully developed No. 17 and No. 18 have been defeated by Trunks. In order to achieve his perfect form, Cell steals Trunks' time machine and travels to the present where No. 17 and No. 18 can still be absorbed. |
Mechanical-type
 |
Artificial Human No. 16 (人造人間１６号)
With the exception of Cell, No. 16 is the strongest artificial human. However, he has a gentle heart and does not like to hurt things. Because of this, Doctor Gero regarded him as a failed creation. He gives the impression of a taciturn, silent giant, but is forever faithful to his duty to kill Son Goku. |
 |
Artificial Human No. 19 (人造人間１９号)
Doctor Gero's nineteenth creation, he comes packaged with a cruel personality and is based on Gero's old energy-absorbing model, making his battle power inferior to No. 17 and No. 18. He oversaw Doctor Gero's restructuring into an artificial human. |
 |
Artificial Human No. 20 / Doctor Gero (人造人間２０号 / ドクター・ゲロ)
Doctor Gero, known to many as a mad scientist, committed his life's work to developing the perfect artificial human. He began creating artificial humans as weapons for his employer, the Red Ribbon Army, but most of them were deemed defective. After the army's destruction, he immersed himself in creating artificial humans with the sole purpose of getting revenge on Son Goku, evening going so far as to turn himself into one. |
