	When Bora and Upa reach the empire's capital, they go to a restaurant where [[Goku]] and his friends happen to be eating. Soldiers soon arrive, demanding Bora's Dragon Ball. Upa hides under Goku's table, and Goku easily overpowers the soldiers. Then Metallic enters the restaurant and attacks, knocking [[Kuririn]] out before Goku kicks Metallic over. He gets up, and Goku is impressed that he is unfazed. Metallic tries to stomp him, but Goku dodges. Then Goku is kicked into a wall, and when Metallic tries to stomp him again, Goku dodges and headbutts him under the chin, knocking off his head.

	As Goku grabs his head in pain, [[Tao Pai-~~Pai~~]] enters the restaurant, catching Metallic's head, just as Bora is attempting to escape with Upa. The soldiers inform Tao that these are the ones from Karin. Tao hands Metallic his head back, and as he reattaches it, Tao suggests he is fighting the wrong people.

	[[Shunsuke Kikuchi]] gave Sergeant Metallic his own leitmotif in [[Dragon Ball Movie 3]]. It is a very simple leitmotif (1-1-5, 5-1 in F Minor) that might have been based on the 5-5-1 timpani beats in [[K-103]] (also F Minor), which plays when Metallic battles [[Goku]] in [[Dragon Ball Episode 36]]. However, K-103 did not debut in that scene, so it was probably not originally intended to be a Metallic-themed BGM.

			Metallic guards the third floor of [[Muscle Tower]], a [[Red Ribbon Army]] fortress under the command of [[General White]]. Before [[Son Goku]] infiltrated Muscle Tower, Metallic had never been defeated.

			After Goku enters the tower and defeats the guards on the second floor, White informs Metallic that Goku is coming for him and jokes that he should go easy on him. When Goku arrives, Metallic welcomes him, pointing to the staircase leading to the fourth floor and telling Goku that he will have to go through him to reach it. Goku is in awe of Metallic's size and excited to fight him. [[Murasaki]], watching the security footage upstairs with White, surmises that it will only take about a minute for Metallic to defeat Goku.

			Metallic attacks, but Goku dodges his fist, jumping up to grab a chain hanging from the ceiling. Goku jumps down, landing on Metallic's shoulder, and then punches him in the head. Metallic falls over, so Goku heads for the staircase. However, Metallic comes up behind him and traps him between his hands, threatening to crush him. Goku uses his arms and legs to pry Metallic's hands apart and then informs Metallic that he will hit him for real now.

			Goku charges, kicking Metallic into a wall, but Metallic is unfazed, and Goku is astonished.<ref>{{Cite manga\|Chp=58}}</ref>{{efn\|In the anime, [[Goku]] briefly thinks he has won and heads for the staircase.<ref name="ep36">{{Cite episode\|Series=DB\|Eps=36}}</ref> This does not happen in the manga.}} Metallic tries to stomp on Goku, but Goku dodges his foot. Then Metallic punches Goku, knocking ''him'' into a wall. White thinks the fight is over, and Murasaki realizes it has been more than two minutes, which is longer than it usually takes Metallic to defeat an opponent.

			With Goku laid out on the floor, Metallic moves to stomp on him again, but Goku gets to his feet and jumps up, headbutting Metallic under the chin. This knocks Metallic over, but Goku flinches and grabs his head in pain. Murasaki and White are impressed that Goku is still fighting, but White observes that he has made Metallic angry now. Metallic gets up, telling Goku it is time to die. Goku is impressed and tells Metallic that he should have entered the ''[[Tenka'ichi Budōkai]]''.

			Metallic opens his mouth and fires a rocket from it, which Goku dodges.{{efn\|In the anime, [[Sno]] breaks her cup and seems to take it as a bad omen.<ref name="ep36"/> This does not happen in the manga.}} The rocket blasts a hole in the wall of the Tower, and Metallic thinks the job is done, flashing a peace sign at the hole. White thinks it's over too,{{efn\|In the anime, [[Murasaki]] expresses relief that he would not have to fight Goku, and [[General White]] says this is the first time Metallic has had to fight for real.<ref name="ep36"/> This does not happen in the manga.}} but Goku is hiding behind a pillar. He wonders what kind of technique that was; it was like Metallic was shooting a ''[[Kamehameha]]'' from his mouth. Goku figures that he can use one too, then.

			Goku jumps out from behind the pillar and gloats that he is not dead; Metallic is startled, while Murasaki and White think it should have been impossible to dodge that rocket. Goku tells Metallic that it is payback time, and begins charging a ''Kamehameha''. Metallic charges, but Goku fires before Metallic reaches him, blowing off Metallic's head and exposing his mechanical innards. Goku thinks he went too far and apologizes; meanwhile Murasaki wonders in terror what kind of power that was.

			Goku says a prayer for Metallic,{{efn\|A Buddhist chant: ''Nanmandabu, nanmandabu, nanmandabu...'' [[Viz]] translates this as "Rest in peace, ugly bad guy!" The [[Funimation]] dub has Goku say: "You were a really tough opponent."}} but Metallic is not dead. He shoots his forearm at Goku like a rocket, knocking Goku down. Metallic moves to punch again, but Goku dodges, realizing that Metallic is no ordinary bad guy. White gloats, happy that Goku finally realizes what he is up against: an indestructible robot.{{efn\|In the anime, Goku stabs Metallic with his ''[[Nyoi-bō]]'', alarming White and Murasaki. He also punches Goku good one more time, and Goku stops his fist with the ''Nyoi-bō'', destroying part of Metallic's arm. As he goes for the stairs, Metallic stomps him and kicks him into a wall, and Goku headbutts him in the chest. Then Goku prepares to fire another ''Kamehameha''.<ref name="ep36"/> None of this happens in the manga.}} Goku resolves to give Metallic everything he has got but then Metallic leans over and freezes. Goku wonders why he stopped moving. Murasaki realizes that Metallic's battery has died,{{efn\|In the anime, Murasaki adds that they have not changed the battery since last spring.<ref name="ep36"/> This does not happen in the manga.}} and Goku runs up the stairs, musing that there are a lot of weird guys out there. White orders Murasaki to go guard the fourth floor.<ref>{{Cite manga\|Chp=59}}</ref><ref name="ep36"/>

			===Dragon Ball Movie 3===
			In [[Dragon Ball Movie 3]], Metallic works for the [[Mifan Empire]]. [[Chiaotzu]] is the emperor, but the [[Crane Hermit]] is the power behind the throne, and various characters associated with the [[Red Ribbon Army]] in the original story are in their employ. As they seek to gather the [[Dragon Balls]], they come into conflict with [[Bora]] and [[Upa]] who are in the possession of the [[Four-Star Ball]]. They flee the [[Karin Holy Land]] and go to Mifan.

			When Bora and Upa reach the empire's capital, they go to a restaurant where [[Goku]] and his friends happen to be eating. Soldiers soon arrive, demanding Bora's Dragon Ball. Upa hides under Goku's table, and Goku easily overpowers the soldiers. Then Metallic enters the restaurant and attacks, knocking [[Kuririn]] out before Goku kicks Metallic over. He gets up, and Goku is impressed that he is unfazed. Metallic tries to stomp him, but Goku dodges. Then Goku is kicked into a wall, and when Metallic tries to stomp him again, Goku dodges and headbutts him under the chin, knocking off his head.

			As Goku grabs his head in pain, [[Tao Pai-Pai]] enters the restaurant, catching Metallic's head, just as Bora is attempting to escape with Upa. The soldiers inform Tao that these are the ones from Karin. Tao hands Metallic his head back, and as he reattaches it, Tao suggests he is fighting the wrong people. Metallic explains that the others were interfering. Tao asks who they are, and Goku tells him they are there to participate in the [[Mifan Tournament]]. As Tao attempts to apprehend Bora, the [[Turtle Hermit]] suggests they all fight at the tournament instead.

			While Goku fights Tao, [[Bulma]], [[Lunch]], [[Yamcha]], [[Oolong]], and [[Pu'er]] go inside the palace to steal the other Dragon Balls. When the alarm goes off, the [[Kuririn]] attacks the soldiers outside while the Turtle Hermit attacks Metallic, severing his forearm. Metallic is knocked down, but then the Crane Hermit orders him to take Upa as a hostage. As Metallic grabs Upa, [[Tenshinhan]] knocks out the Turtle Hermit temporarily. The Crane Hermit then orders him to kill the emperor. This creates a moral crisis for Tenshinhan. He tries to do his duty to his master, but he cannot. The Crane Hermit decides to do it himself, telling Metallic to kill Upa if the Turtle Hermit tries to interfere. Before he can do the deed, Tenshinhan takes out the Crane Hermit with a ''[[Kikōhō]]''. Metallic moves to kill Upa, but then Goku flies in through Metallic's chest, immobilizing him. Upa climbs out of his hand unharmed.<ref>{{Cite features\|Number=dbmovie3}}</ref>

	==Name==		==Name==
			Sergeant Metallic's name (メタリック軍曹 ''Metarikku-gunsō'') is taken from the direct transliteration of the English word "metallic" ([https://jisho.org/search/メタリックメタリック] ''metarikku''), and the Japanese word [https://jisho.org/search/軍曹軍曹] (ぐんそう ''gunsō''), a rank equivalent to sergeant.

	==Production==		==Production==
			[[Akira Toriyama]] very likely designed Sergeant Metallic based on the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terminator_(character) Terminator] as played by [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arnold_Schwarzenegger Arnold Schwarzenegger] in the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Terminator film] of the same name. The film premiered on '''26 October 1984''', and Metallic's manga debut was on '''21 January 1986'''.

			Series anime director [[Daisuke Nishio]] had the following to say about Metallic:<ref>"DRAGON CALL". ''Jump Gold Selection: Dragon Ball Z Anime Special''. Japan: Shueisha, 04 October 1989. (pp. 124-125)<br>——{{Cite web\|URL=https://www.kanzenshuu.com/translations/dragon-ball-z-anime-special-dragon-call/\|Website=Kanzenshuu\|Title="Dragon Call"\|AccessDate=05 February 2021}}</ref>
			{{Quotation\|I like relatively large characters, like Sergeant Metallic, or Hacchan. That’s because there's an atmosphere where they can just naturally exist in Toriyama-''sensei''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s world.\|[[Daisuke Nishio]]}}

			Sergeant Metallic is voiced by [[Shin Aomori]], the voice of [[Kibito]], among others. In the [[Funimation]] dub, "Major Metallitron" is voiced by [[Chris Rager]], best known as the voice of [[Mister Satan]]. In the Canadian [[Blue Water]] dub, Metallic is voiced by [[Lucas Gilbertson]], who also voiced [[Yajirobe]] and [[Bora]].

			==Music==
			[[Shunsuke Kikuchi]] gave Sergeant Metallic his own leitmotif in [[Dragon Ball Movie 3]]. It is a very simple leitmotif (1-1-5, 5-1 in F Minor) that might have been based on the 5-5-1 timpani beats in [[K-103]] (also F Minor), which plays when Metallic battles [[Goku]] in [[Dragon Ball Episode 36]]. However, K-103 did not debut in that scene, so it was probably not originally intended to be a Metallic-themed BGM.
