Biography
Rou is known for using vulgar language unfitting of a Kaiōshin, but he thinks himself clever[1] and tends to make fun of other universes.[2]
Name
Rou's name pun is unknown, but many Kaiōshin appear to have been named after deities, and Louhi (ロウヒ/Rouhi), a wicked queen and witch of Finnish mythology, is a likely source for his name.[3] "Rō" (老 meaning "old" or "elder") has been used before in the series in reference to the Elder Kaiōshin who had been locked away in the Z-Sword several generations prior.[4]
Performance
Rou is voiced by Yasunori Masutani, who also voices Huwa, the Kaiōshin of Universe 6. Masutani has voiced several minor roles in Dragon Ball GT, Dragon Ball Kai, and Dragon Ball Super. In the FUNimation English dub, Rou is voiced by Derick Snow in his first role for the Dragon Ball franchise.
