Nappa is a fictional character in the Dragon Ball manga series by Akira Toriyama. Nappa makes his debut in chapter 204, published in the 1989 #01/02 issue of Shueisha's Weekly Shōnen Jump, as one of the few survivors of the Saiyan race.
Biography
Nappa was one of the few Saiyans to survive the destruction of Planet Vegeta. Continuing to serve under Freeza, Nappa discovers a potential planet to sell at a high price with Vegeta and Raditz. However, the job may prove to be difficult for even the three of them and decide to recruit Raditz's lost brother Kakarot, presumably alive on Earth after being sent shortly before Planet Vegeta's destruction. Nappa later listens in on Raditz's scouter as he is subsequently killed on Earth by his brother and the namekian Piccolo, and discovers the existence of the Dragon Balls. Nappa and Vegeta then depart for a year-long journey to Earth, choosing to not resurrect Raditz and instead wish for eternal life.
Name
The name Nappa comes from 菜っ葉 (nappa), referring to leafy vegetables.
