Roasie is a fictional character in the Japanese animated television series Dragon Ball Super and its companion manga series written by Toyotarō. Roasie makes her debut in Dragon Ball Super Episode 96, broadcast on 25 June 2017 on Fuji TV, as a member of the Universe 2 team.

Biography

Roasie transforms into a Chinese-style magical warrior, a master of the Yacchaina Fist that becomes stronger and sharper the more she attacks.[1]

Tournament of Power

Sous-Roas is one of the ten warriors chosen to represent Universe 2 in the Tournament of Power. She is first seen when the Great Priest transports the Universe 2 team to the World of Void and they are introduced to the other teams.[2] When the tournament begins, Narirama of Universe 3 goes into his Super Survival Mode and knocks Sous and the other members of the Maiden Squadron flying. Helles is offended; it is not beautiful to attack the maidens before they transform.[3] After this, Roasie lays low and is not seen again until Brianne de Chateau decides it is time for the Maiden Squadron to transform.[4]

Roasie's character design for the Tournament of Power.[1]

Brianne calls for Sous and Sanka-Ku, telling them it is time to show their power. Then she calls for the attention of the other warriors, and Jimizu, Zirloin, Bikal, Rabanra, and Zarbuto stop what they are doing to attend her. (It is unknown why the other Universe 2 fighters, Prum and Harmira, did not join them.) As Sanka and Sous join Brianne on a high rock, Goku, who was looking for Jiren, stops to see what is happening. They also have the attention of Kuririn, who is in the stands. Brianne asks the girls if they are ready, and they are; Sanka approves of the high ground for their performance. Peru roots in anticipation, and Helles stands to announce that it is time for lovely flowers to bloom on the battlefield. Beerus and Champa wonder what is going on. Vegeta asks them what this is all about.

Brianne introduces herself, followed by Sanka and Sous, and their Universe 2 teammates join them in a call-and-response ritual. "Let it bloom. Let it ring. The song of love and victory!"/"The song of love and victory!" Brianne calls "Formation!" and begins her transformation sequence, but before her actual transformation begins, Sanka and Sous begin their sequences as well. Sous chants: "Su-su! Suro-suro! Su-su-rosuron!" as she prepares to transform.

Goku wonders if they are going to power up, but Beerus thinks it looks more like a recital than powering up. Helles tells him to be silent; this ritual represents the fighting spirit of the Universe 2 warriors. The maidens all drift, eyes closed, as they gather their power, and the Omni-Kings are enthralled, but then suddenly they are interrupted by a blast from No. 17. Peru is horrified; Helles demands to know who has done this. Goku asks No. 17 if he did it; No. 17 says they were wide open, and asks if there is a problem. Goku explains that they were going to transform.

The disheveled maidens rush in to angrily confront No. 17; Brianne tells him that the entire process of their transformation has meaning; how could he interrupt it? Toppo chimes in to support the maidens; a warrior's pose is justice, and No. 17's interruption was disrespectful. Goku pleads with No. 17 to allow them to transform, so he concedes and walks away. Brianne thanks Toppo for his understanding, but warns him that they will not hold back. Toppo says that is fine, and Goku tells them to show their full power. No. 17 takes a seat on a rock to watch, and the girls jump back up on their high rock. Beerus is frustrated with Goku; he is supposed to eliminate enemies before they reach full power. Kuririn says that is just how Goku is.

The Maiden Squadron transformation is interrupted by No. 17.[4]

Helles announces the ritual again, and Beerus and Champa cannot believe they are starting over from the beginning. Everything is repeated exactly as it was before, except that this time they successfully transform into Ribrianne, Kakunsa, and Roasie. Roasie concludes her transformation with the words: "The strike of love through dreams and magic!"

Helles proclaims that this is the highest form of Universe 2's warriors; their mortal level might not be high enough, but their love level is the highest in all the universes. The Omni-Kings, the participating Universe 2 members, and Peru all celebrate; Peru thinks they are beautiful, but Kuririn thinks they were cuter before. Whis explains that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and each universe is different; indeed, the male Universe 10 warriors on the sidelines are enjoying the spectacle, and from Universe 11, Tupper, Zoire, Toppo, and Dispo are blushing. Goku adopts a battle stance, and Vegeta demands to see their power.

Ribrianne starts off with an attack called Love; all three maidens contribute, and they send hearts crashing all around the arena; Goku sniffs the air, and Freeza thinks the odor is foul. Obni is overcome by emotions, and Toppo warns Dispo not to inhale. Helles explains that this is the light of love; warriors ensnared by its aroma will be consumed. Rumoosh frantically tries to smack his warriors in the stands out of their stupor; only Rylibeu seems unaffected. Shin wonders whether Goku and the others will be okay, but Whis says they are all stoic and they seem to be holding up, even the Turtle Hermit, who was the one they would have had to worry about the most. Muten Rōshi says that his training with Pu'er is paying off, and Tenshinhan is proud of him. The Universe 7 defensive group scatters to fight independently.

The entire arena is covered in the fog of the Love attack. Beerus thinks Universe 2 was hiding a real nuisance; Champa says that, despite their bizarre appearances, they have shaken up the entire tournament. Helles declares that this is the point. Jiren moves in to put an end to the attack, but Vegeta beats him to the punch. Ribrianne then commands Universe 2 to fight.

Roasie attacks Goku with her Yacchaina Fist, and Helles warns that her attacks become sharper and more powerful as she strikes. She assaults Goku with multiple small, guided ki blasts, and a seemingly stray one gets him in the face. Helles explains that her technique changes constantly, just like the heart of a young girl. When No. 17 eliminates Kakunsa, Roasie rushes away from Goku in distress.[4]

As Ribrianne attacks No. 17, Roasie attacks Goku again with rapid-fire blasts, vowing revenge against Universe 7 for the elimination of Kakunsa. Beerus wonders why Goku is having trouble, and Shin explains that Roasie is using feints to throw him off. She eventually surrounds him with blasts, guiding them all to hit Goku at once, but No. 17 steps in to protect Goku with a barrier. No. 17 asks Goku if he needs help, but Goku says he is fine. He tells Roasie that he is starting to get the hang of how she fights. He gets behind her and pins her in with his own blasts, telling her that her fighting method was instructive. Roasie is knocked aside, and she concedes that Goku is a good fighter.

Ribrianne drops in to check on Roasie, telling Goku that she will not allow him to do any more. No. 17 tells them that it would save them some trouble if they would eliminate themselves. Helles is worried that this is the end for the Maiden Squadron, but Peru tells her not to worry; maidens have knights! Jimizu appears and uses his teleportation technique to help them retreat. He later eliminates Zircor to protect them, promising that no one shall harm the hopes of Universe 2, and assuring them that love and hope will never die.[5]

Later, as Ribrianne fights Goku, Roasie and Kakunsa hold up glowsticks to send love to Ribrianne, which helps her transform into Super Ribrianne.[6] After Goku abandons Ribrianne to fight Jiren, Roasie is seen having trouble standing up while Goku pushes his Genki-Dama attack. When Goku falls, Roasie backs up Ribrianne as she and other warriors approach Jiren, the greatest remaining threat.[7]

After Jiren's fight against Goku concludes, Ribrianne takes on Vegeta, and as Vegeta closes in to finish her, Roasie steps in to protect her. Infuriated, Vegeta attacks them both with rapid fire blasts, but they escape, hiding underneath a rock, and Vegeta goes off to search for them. Ribrianne worriedly asks Roasie if they can win this; Universe 2 is losing more members than other universes. Roasie slaps her, asking her if this is the extent of her love and reminding her that love is stronger and bigger than everything. Ribrianne wipes away her tears, and says Roasie is right; if she cannot believe in love, then who can? She gives Roasie her thanks.[8]

When Goku is exhausted after defeating Kafla, fights break out all over the arena, and Ribrianne and Roasie are eager to join in. Helles speaks to them telepathically, telling them she has a secret strategy for Universe 2. Elsewhere, No. 17 and No. 18 observe Roasie balancing atop Ribrianne's Ball of Fire technique, headed toward Goku. They are joined by Zirloin, Rabanra, and Zarbuto. Goku remarks that they are ganging up on him, but Ribrianne tells him that love is always a surprise attack. Helles tells them to put the exhausted man out of his misery, and Sanka cheers them on. Beerus objects; that is unfair! But Helles knows they must do whatever it takes to eliminate Goku.

Ribrianne and Roasie decide it is time to show Goku their love. They jump on on a rock and begin the ritual; the men join them, posing and praising the maidens' beauty. Ribrianne and Roasie attack with a Love Symphony, but their attack is interrupted by a combination blast from Nos. 17 and 18, cheered by Kuririn. Goku thanks them for coming to his rescue. Ribrianne chides them; they were trying to send Goku their love! But Nos. 17 and 18 cannot allow Goku to be eliminated. Roasie is frustrated, but Ribrianne reminds her that love always has obstacles, and true love can overcome them all. They will send their love to the interlopers instead. She tells the men to watch Goku and make sure that he does not escape; he is hers to defeat. Roasie asks Ribrianne if she can have No. 17 to avenge Kakunsa, and Ribrianne agrees.

Invoking Kakunsa's name, Rozie attacks No. 17 with her Yatchaina-ken. After harrying him with rapid punches, she sends two guided attacks toward him, which he deflects. The Omni-Kings love her style, and imitate her rapid punches. No. 17 notices his sister in trouble in her fight against Ribrianne, and he abandons Roasie to save No. 18. Roasie attacks them both with a Yatchaina Hidden Technique Heavy Light Shatter Burst, but they dodge, and the attack hits Ribrianne instead. Roasie apologizes profusely, and then No. 17 attacks her again. No. 18 baits Ribrianne into attacking her; she dodges at the last minute and the attack goes toward No. 17 and Roasie. No. 17 jumps and lets the attack hit Roasie. Ribrianne tries to help her, but No. 18 blasts her out of the way. While Roasie aims an attack, No. 17 hits her from behind, eliminating her.

Brianne de Chateau falls to the ground and traps No. 18 with Big Amour. Sous-Roas, the gods of Universe 2, and their other eliminated warriors use their glowsticks to give Brianne more power until she transforms into a giant Super Ribrianne. When Ribrianne is eliminated by No. 18, Sous and Sanka comfort her. Brianne sees No. 18 smiling at Kuririn, and a tear falls from her eye. She acknowledges with a smile that there might be a love out there that they don't yet understand, and the other maidens agree.[9]

Back in Universe 2, the female-presenting warriors from Brianne's audition—one with her arm in a sling, the other with a bandage on her face—are watching the tournament in a large crowd where people are wearing t-shirts featuring their favorite members of the team, including Roasie. They are distressed that their goddess Ribrianne has fallen, and worry that their universe is finished. Brianne assures them that it is not over yet, and they call out to her. The Elder Kaiōshin and Whis are surprised that Universe 2 was so bold as to broadcast the tournament back home, when normally it would cause mass hysteria. Brianne tells them that even though she was defeated, the light of love has not yet been lost, and she encourages everyone to cheer on the remaining warriors all the way to the end.

Zirloin, Rabanra, and Zarbuto surround Goku, while Brianne rallies the Universe 2 people to raise their glowsticks in support. The warriors absorb the love of their universe, and Brianne tells the men to recite the incantation of love. The men mimic the transformation ritual of the Maiden Squadron; Zirloin transforms in the aspect of Ribrianne, Rabanra as Kakunsa, and Zarbuto as Roasie. Helles pronounces a miracle; here, a new beauty has been born. Nos. 17 and 18 join Goku, and the fight begins. The men have actually taken on the maidens' power; Zirloin explains to Goku that this is the power of love. Eventually, they create a Pretty Black Hole, an attack that not even the Maiden Squadron could handle. Under its weight, Goku finally gets the "power of love", but he powers up to Super Saiyan Blue and dispels the attack with a Kamehameha.

The last Universe 2 members are eliminated, and the Great Priest announces that they will be erased. Peru congratulates the men for a job well done, and back home, the inhabitants of Universe 2 wave their glowsticks. Helles tells them to accept their fate gracefully and beautifully. Brianne calls "Formation!", and as Ribrianne, she thanks everyone for cheering them on. Kakunsa tells them that even if Universe 2 is erased, their love will live on inside of them. Roasie tells them to finish it off with the usual: Love! Ribrianne tells everyone "Bye-Bye!", and they all disappear. No. 18 is amazed they were like that until the end, and thinks that after everything, they were cool.[10]

When No. 17 uses the Super Dragon Balls to restore all of the destroyed universes, Sous-Roas is seen with Helles, Peru, and the rest of the team back at home in Universe 2.[11]

Name

Roasie's name (Sous-Roas) is likely derived from "sous" (スー) and "roast" (ロース). The former refers to the sous-vide low-temperature cooking technique. The latter term, fully adopted from the English word "roast", indicates lean cuts of meat from around the shoulder and back, typically referring to what is considered the loin or sirloin in traditional American cuts. In some cases, rōsu is translated as "loin".[12]

Performance

Roasie is voiced by Yuka Saitō whose Dragon Ball roles include several minor parts in Dragon Ball Kai. In the FUNimation dub, Roasie is voiced by Kristi Rothrock in her first role for the franchise.[13]
