Rou is a fictional character in the Japanese animated television series Dragon Ball Super and its companion manga series written by Toyotarō. Rou makes his debut in Dragon Ball Super Episode 78, broadcast on 12 February 2017 on Fuji TV, as the Kaiōshin of Universe 9.
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]
Zen Exhibition Match
When the Great Priest informs the gods of each universe about the upcoming Tournament of Power, he invites them to attend the Zen Exhibition Match to sate the curiosity of the Omni-King from the future, who has never seen a martial arts tournament. Universe 9 is asked to participate in the tournament and bring three fighters to compete against warriors from Universe 7. The gods of Universe 9 bring the Trio de Dangers to the Omni-King's palace, where they encounter the representatives of Universe 7 in the corridor. Shin greets them, noting that they have not seen each other in some time, and Rou smiles.
With everyone present, the Great Priest creates an arena in a void that appears to be located beneath the Omni-King's palace, and the Universe 9 representatives fall onto a platform situated on one side of the fighting stage, across from the Universe 7 platform. Then the Great Priest brings in the gods from all the other universes to observe the match. When Goku speaks casually to the Omni-Kings, calling them "Zen-chan", Sidra says that he never would have believed Universe 7 would have someone so disrespectful, and Rou says he has never seen the like.[3]
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.[4] "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.[5]
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 credited role for the Dragon Ball franchise.
