Sno is a fictional character in the Dragon Ball manga series by Akira Toriyama. Sno makes her debut in chapter 56, published in the 1986 #06 issue of Shueisha's Weekly Shōnen Jump.
Biography
Sno is a resident of Jingle Village. In Age 750[1], White Company of the Red Ribbon Army invades this village to search for a Dragon Ball. They force the men of the village to help them with this, by taking the mayor hostage within their stronghold Muscle Tower.[2]
One day, a plane crashes nearby and Sno finds a young boy lying frozen in the snow.[3] She brings him back to her house to help him recover, and learns his name is Son Goku. This boy is also looking for a Dragon Ball, which scares Sno and her mother, but Goku is not with the Red Ribbon Army. Goku explains to them what the Dragon Balls are, and they explain to him who the Red Ribbon Army are. Learning that the mayor is being held hostage, Goku offers to go beat up the bad guys as thanks for helping him. Sno and her mother think it is impossible for one kid to take on a whole army, but two soldiers enter the house and Goku knocks them out so quickly that Sno does not even see him move.[2]
Goku storms Muscle Tower and eventually makes it to the top, where he rescues the mayor from General White's clutches. The two of them return to Jingle Village along with a friendly artificial human called Hacchan. Sno's father also returns, no longer having to do the Red Ribbon Army's bidding. Hacchan, it turns out, has been holding on to the missing Dragon Ball this whole time, because he knew all the villagers would be killed as soon as General White found it. This amazes the mayor so much that he wants Hacchan to come live with him, despite him being an artificial human. Hacchan asks Goku if he will stay with them too, but the Dragon Ball Hacchan found was the Two-Star Ball, and Goku wants to keep looking for the Four-Star Ball, his grandfather's keepsake. Sno and the other villagers bid Goku goodbye as he flies off on Kinto'un.[4]
In an expansion to the story exclusive to the anime, before Goku departs from Jingle Village, he accompanies Sno and Hacchan to Doctor Frappe's house. They hope to have the explosive device within Hacchan's body removed, but Master Sergeant Murasaki shows up and threatens to kill Sno unless Doctor Frappe cooperates with him to take Goku's Dragon Balls. Sno screams and the others come to her aid, and Doctor Frappe successfully removes Hacchan's explosive device. Goku tosses it off into the distance, where it explodes after happening to land on the escaped Murasaki's face.[5]
Many years later, in Age 774[6], everyone on Earth hears voices asking them to donate ki to the Genki-Dama Goku is employing to defeat Majin Boo. The residents of Jingle Village are skeptical at first, but contribute willingly when they recognize Goku's voice.[7]
In Dragon Ball GT, Sno and everyone else on Earth get evacuated to Planet Tsufru before the Earth explodes from the aftereffects of the Ultimate Dragon Balls. They return to Earth when it is wished back with the Namekian Dragon Balls.[8]
Name
Sno's name (スノ Suno) is a pun on the word "snow" (スノー sunoo) and first appears in the title of Dragon Ball Episode 35. She is not named in the manga until Chapter 515, when Hacchan enthusiastically tells her that the voice they are hearing is Son Goku's.
