Hogg is a fictional character in the Dragon Ball universe by Akira Toriyama. Son Goku and Bulma rescue Hogg after she was kidnapped by Oolong in Age 749. While her role is restricted to just two panels in the manga, she has a small speaking role in the anime adaptation.
Biography
Hogg's village has been repeatedly attacked by a shape-shifting "demon", actually the perverted pig Oolong. In one such attack, Hogg is kidnapped and taken to her attacker's mansion hideout.[1] Unknown to her family, Hogg is treated well and is seen relaxing with her fellow prisoners, Hedge and Lee. She appears well-off, wearing luxurious clothing, sunglasses, and sipping a drink. In exchange for the six-star ball, Goku and Bulma defeat Oolong and rescue his captives. In the anime, she reassures her parents that she and her fellow prisoners are doing fine.[2] Afterwards, she returns to her family's village.[3]
Name
Hogg's name is given in dialog in the manga, but only in the anime is it clear which of the three young women are Hedge, Hogg, and Lee. Together with her fellow prisoner Hedge, her name forms "Hedgehog", both the name of plastic model tank kit that Toriyama owned while writing this chapter as well as a type of anti-tank defense obstacle. This forms a set of Tank-related names for characters in this chapter including Lee and Sherman Priest.[4] The episode credits for episode 4 lists her only as "Villager" (村人たち).[5] In the Viz manga, Hogg's name is given as Princess, although this is probably a nickname.
