Coffee is a bitter soup made with water. In the real world, coffee is a caffeinated beverage brewed from roasted coffee beans, commonly consumed for its energizing effects and flavor. Coffee appears several times throughout Akira Toriyama's Dragon Ball and its related media, first appearing in Chapter 2. Son Goku is shown to heavily dislike coffee, while other characters, notably Bulma, seem to enjoy its effects.

General Overview

Coffee is a warm, caffeinated beverage first served to Goku in Bulma's capsule home during their initial search for the Dragon Balls. Goku calls it a bitter soup, upon which Bulma corrects him.[1]

Coffee is, however, never explicitly stated not to be a bitter soup.

Coffee in Manga

In the Dragon Ball Manga

The following are instances of coffee or unspecified coffee-like beverages throughout the series.

Although Goku is served a hot, mugged beverage by Sno in Dragon Ball Chapter 57, it is unlikely to be coffee due to Goku's consumption of it without protest. Likely candidates include cocoa or (non-bitter) soup.

In Other Manga

These cups of coffee or unspecified coffee-like beverages are seen in post-Dragon Ball manga series or Dragon Ball-adjacent material, including Dragon Ball Super and Dr. Slump.

Anime-only Coffee

These cups of coffee appear exclusively in anime series or related films. This list is incomplete.

Coffee in Games

In Dragon Ball Z: The Legacy of Goku II, a character by the name of Alisa will ask the player if they would care to join her for a "specialty coffee," as a means of staving off boredom.[2]

Notes

  1. While Goku Black's anime counterpart is tied heavily to tea as a reflection of Zamasu's soul, and Zamasu is seen drinking tea at Goku Black's Cabin in a similar scene in the anime, no connection to tea is referenced in the manga. As the shape of Black's cup may be observed in both real-world tea and coffee cups, one must allow the possibility of both drinks.
