Oob is a fictional character in the Dragon Ball manga series by Akira Toriyama. Oob makes his debut in chapter 518, published in the 1995 #24 issue of Shueisha's Weekly Shōnen Jump, as a young competitor at the 28th Tenka'ichi Budōkai and the human reincarnation of Majin Boo.
Biography
Dragon Ball (Manga) and Dragon Ball Z (Anime)

Oob, a poor villager from a southern island, is ten years old, and the oldest of five siblings.[1] Since the bad version of Boo was pure evil, he was easily purified in the afterlife, and was able to be reincarnated right away; this reincarnation is Oob.[2]
Oob arrives at the 28th Tenka'ichi Budōkai and is present as the lottery drawing for opponents begins. When it is Son Goku's turn to draw, Goku asks Boo to use his magic to make him draw #3. Following Kirano is Oob; Goku tells Boo to make him draw #4, after which point he will not need to use magic for any more drawings. Goku explains to Vegeta that, ten years ago when the evil Boo was defeated, he wished for Boo to be reborn as a good guy for him to fight against. Enma apparently heard his wish, as Oob is this reincarnation; even his name is "Boo" spelled backward! Oob looks around nervously, realizing just how many strong people there are and how he will possibly be able to win the prize money to pay for his village's food.
Goku faces Oob in the second match as planned. Goku cuts off the fight midway, deciding that Oob needs more training before he can give him a proper fight; Oob is too nervous to put up a proper fight, though Goku's light verbal abuse is enough to give a glimpse at the untapped power within Oob (including a fierce kiai which knocks Goku up into the air). Goku offers to train Oob, who is still concerned about supporting his village; Goku says that they can borrow plenty of money from Mr. Satan. The two set off to train, with Goku passing Kinto-un on to Oob.[3]
Dragon Ball GT

Oob wraps up with training with Son Goku at God's palace in Age 789, five years after their first meeting at the 28th Tenka'ichi Budōkai.[4]
Later that year, as Baby invades Earth and infects the population, Oob takes his siblings deep into the mountains to hide away and train. Oob feels Goku's ki fighting against Baby, but when Goku's ki mysteriously disappears, he rushes in to investigate. He rescues Pan from her Baby-infected parents, officially joining the battle[5]. Oob and Baby clash as Boo, Satan, and Pan watch. After bringing Satan and Pan to safety, Boo returns to the battlefield and inhales Baby's Revenge Death Ball. Oob is saved, though Boo appears to be ripped apart, surrounding Oob as pink particles raining down. Boo unites with him to create "Merged" or "Super" Oob[6]. Oob returns to fight Baby, but his chocolate attack is reflected back at him. Baby eats the resulting snack, eliminating Oob.[7]
Oob enters the 31st Tenka'ichi Budōkai disguised as "Papayaman"... defeats Ebitchiri to win the adult division... Boo convinces him to throw the fight against Mr. Satan...[8]
When villains escape from Hell, Oob fights against the Saibaimen and Rild. He later joins the battle against Super 17 alongside Goten, Trunks, Vegeta, and Gohan until he is defeated.
(Evil Dragon arc needed)
Dragon Ball Super

Oob is mentioned, though not by name, as Goku and the others attempt to form a team to compete against Universe 6. Goku mentions that the evil Boo has been reincarnated as a human, but says that this reincarnation is still too young to compete.[9]
Prior to the Tournament of Power, as Goku once again attempts to form a team, he and Dende fly toward No. 17's island in an attempt to recruit him. Along the way, Dende mentions a powerful young boy in a village that Goku should train. Unfortunately, since he is still a child, Goku cannot bring him along. Dende remarks that once he is older, Goku should teach him to use his power, because he is the reincarnation of the evil Boo. Goku says he is looking forward to meeting the boy some day.[10] The manga version of this scene provides an actual brief glimpse at Oob himself, carrying supplies and one of his siblings on his back.[11]
Name
Oob's name, written out as ウーブ (Ūbu) in katakana, is Boo's name, written as ブウ (Bū), approximated and spelled backward.[12]
Dragon Ball GT's united version of Oob and Boo is named "Merged Oob" (合体ウーブ Gattai Ūbu) in the first Dragon Ball GT Perfect File volume.[13] Beginning with 2004's Dragon Ball Z: Sparking! NEO, video games occasionally refer to the merged version as "Super Oob" (スーパーウーブ Sūpā Ūbu).[14] FUNimation's English dub fabricates the name "Majuub" to refer to this merged version.
