'''Piroshki''' is a fictional character in the ''Dragon Ball'' universe by Akira Toriyama. He was one of two anime-only contestants introduced for the [[Cell Games]] and a pupil of [[Mister Satan]], with his major contributions in an episode scripted by [[Sumio Uetake]]. Piroshki is a martial artist but lost quickly to [[Cell]] during his Cell Games.

==Biography==
Little is documented about Piroshki. By [[Age 767]], he had come to train with [[Mister Satan]] and became his #2 pupil behind [[Karoni]]. He, like Mister Satan and Karoni came to have their martial arts career managed by [[Pizza]]. In this time he also became famous, won many martial arts tournaments, and even shared a helicopter with his name on it.

At the Cell Games, Piroshki made a surprise appearance with his comrade Karoni and volunteered to be second to face the Artificial Human. He attempted to charge at Cell, but could not even break through a wall of Cell's ''ki''. He is eventually pushed back and disqualified by ring-out. Piroshki remains to watch the remainder of the Games and even participates in Mister Satan's victory parade. During the battle, Piroshki comes to understand ''ki''-based fighting and realizes how little he knows, compared to Mister Satan who continued to delude himself even as the battle raged beyond human limits.<ref>{{Cite episode|Series=Z|Eps=176}}</ref>

After the Cell games, Piroshki is not seen fighting again. He is not seen to participate in the [[25th World Martial Arts Tournament]], although he remains by Satan's side and is seen occasionally in the background of scenes involving his sensei.

==Name==
Piroshki is one of three members of Mister Satan's entourage to get food names. In his case, he is named for a variety of Eastern European/Russian filled bun. Karoni is named for "macaroni", while [[Pizza]]'s name is self-explanatory.

==Production==
Due to the production schedule inherent in producing a weekly anime series based on a weekly comic, the writers of ''[[Dragon Ball Z]]'' interjected anime-only material both as a means of extending the runtime and to flesh out the ''Dragon Ball'' universe. Piroshki and the rest of Mister Satan's entourage were developed initially in an episode by [[Sumio Uetake]] and used to provide additional point-of-view characters to comment on the Cell Games, as well as to underscore just how powerful Cell was compared to the greatest "regular" martial artists on Earth.

==Notable Skills==
Piroshki, despite being below Mister Satan's level, is likely a formidable martial artist by human standards. He is particularly gifted at strength-based attacks and wears a costume resuming an elephant. He is capable of crushing metal with his bare hands and even eating it, but his strength is nowhere near a match for Cell.

==Performance==
Piroshki is played by [[Hisao Egawa]] in all of his appearances to date. Egawa played many bit roles throughout the series but may be best known as the voice of [[Spopovitch]].

==Notable Appearances==
* [[Dragon Ball Z Episode 176]] - Piroshki is introduced and fights against Cell.
