Planet Sharts is a fictional celestial body that appears in the Dragon Ball franchise, one of an unknown number of planets under Freeza's control in Universe 7. The planet was initiually conquered by the Saiyan trio of Raditz, Nappa, and Vegeta. It is first seen in episode 104 of the Dragon Ball Z television series, which originally aired 21 August 1991 on Fuji TV.

Name

The planet "Sharts" likely takes its name from the Japanese approximation of the English word "shirts" (シャツ shatsu) and elongating the vowel sound (シャーツ shātsu). As such, some kind of alteration from the English word "shirts" as-is makes sense for a translation/adaptation of the name. In this case, the long vowel mark (called a chōonpu) extending the preceding vowel sound is typically adapted back to English as an "-ar" or "-er" sound, leading us at Kanzenshuu to decide on "Sharts" for a spelling.

Steven J. Simmons uses "Shatts" as a spelling in the official English subtitle translation for FUNimation's DVDs of the Dragon Ball Z television series.

FUNimation's English dub of the Dragon Ball Z series uses "Shik" as a name change (as directly seen in the subtitle / closed caption track associated with the English dub specifically), first appearing in the company's dub of the episode on the "Frieza - Fall of a Tyrant" VHS/DVD release. This name change/misspelling is often itself further misspelled as "Shikk" in other documentation sources online.
