Every Dragon Ball Kanji And What They Mean (Gi Symbols)

Dragon Ball Gi Symbols And Kanji Explained
SUBSCRIBE NOW to CBR! Click here: bit.ly/Subscribe-to-CBR
There are a lot of consistent elements in the world of Dragon Ball, from transformations to energy attacks with crazy names and lots of villains becoming good guys. Another consistent part of the franchise that perhaps some fans overlook is Kanji. Specifically, characters wearing outfits with kanji on them, be it of their own name, their teacher’s name or their family name.
The first kanji to be introduced was, strangely enough, Emperor Pilaf’s, since Goku’s signature orange gi would not come until the second saga of the series. After Pilaf, we were introduced to the kanji of Yamcha and Monster Carrot, both of whom came in the Pilaf Saga. Fast forward a bit and we were eventually introduced to the kanji of the turtle school, a symbol that Goku, Krillin and Yamcha would go on to wear for quite some time, brandishing the character at the World Martial Arts Tournament in the World Tournament saga.
Kanji are mostly used to show respect to one’s martial arts master, at least when it comes to the warriors of Earth, but regardless every kanji in the series has a meaning, meanings that not every fan may know. So, we decided to explain them all in this video, from the King Piccolo Saga to the Saiyan Saga. Which characters wear the same Kanji? Who goes around wearing clothes with their names on them? Check the video out to learn all about Dragon Ball Kanji and don’t forget to subscribe to CBR for more Dragon Ball videos. Thanks for watching!

    This is a great video and as a Chinese I didn't realize how helpful this would be and how hard it is for westerners to get the background knowledge. Since Journey To The West is a well known story for almost every kids in China. Here are something I think worth sharing: 2:21 孫 is Goku and Gohan's familiy name, "Son" is a transliteration, BTW it means Grandson in Chinese, and it is also a common family name. Goku's family name It was originally comes From Journey To The West, where the Monkey-King given the family name by his first Sensei, 猢猻 is a kind of monkey. 12:56 Chiaotzu is not based on vampires, but Chinese zombies 13:17 Just some background adding for Ox-King. In Journey To The West, Ox-King and Monkey-King (孫悟空, whom Goku was based on) were sworn brothers before the monkey was punished by the Buddha. When the monkey became a monk 500 years later, they put on a fight for the Monkey tricking Ox-Queen for the Bansho Fan, which is used to put off the fire at Fire Mountain. The pig (whom Oolong was based on) is also part of that fight. 16:38 天 has nothing to do with he can fly. Tien Shinhan 天津飯 is a Japanese-Chinese food, where 天津 is a city/port in china bordering Beijing and 飯 literally means food/meal/rice, the same as Gohan's name. His third eye also based a Character in Journey To The West, Er Lang Shen Unrelated, Master Roshi(武天老師 むてんろうし Muten Roshi) is a bad translation IMO, since Roshi is the transliteration of 老師 which means teacher/Sensei. Master Muten is more appropriate. Also Kamehameha is the family name of the first ruler of the Kingdom of Hawaii, Toriyama's wife suggested this name when he was trying to accommodate "Kame" into this name of this technique. That happens to be Turtle Destruction Wave in Japanese

    You neglect to mention one very important aspect of these kanji. When they wear, is also important. For example the Z fighters wear certain kanji to represent their teacher. Goku wears the turtle symbol after he trains with Roshi. He then wears King Kai’s symbol next because King Kai was his next teacher. Who was Goku’s next teacher? Well it was Goku in 100 times normal gravity. Thus he wears the Goku symbol next while on Namek. As you mention Gohan wears Piccolos symbol. And later in the series Goku and Vegetable wear Whis’s symbol next so... there you have it. Most of the symbol represent who they are in the show and they also represent a badge of respect representing their teachers. Which is pretty cool!

    I think it makes more sense for the comfort/ease kanji, on Yamcha, to symbolize his goal of wanting to be comfortable around girls. It would also be a reference, and play on words, to his “cool-guy” attitude.

    So that's why King Kai was smiling at the back of Goku's GI Top! That was his symbol and he secretly gave Goku a new one since he trained under him and Became one of his Finest students also. Man, What an Honor! Also for Beerus on DB Super, I've never seen him "Breakdance!" Breakdancing is Wayyyy Past Cool, and Sonic the Hedgehog can do this. Apparently, myself being a Mobian Badger from Sonic Boom, my Mobian form can breakdance. But my human form really can't. I'm too heavyset, and I'd probably Break my own neck doing that. Mobians were always Professionals at breakdancing Because they have very low Bodily Weight, and they're very small people.

    7:05 except it's not exactly the case. Toriyama himself said that Kamehameha was not a Japanese pun/phrase or something, it's just a reference directly to the Hawaiian king Kamehameha. Not to mention that, Master Roshi himself often wears Hawaiian shirt and his island resembles one of Hawaiian islands.

    You can find other Kanji Characters in the dragonball games. such as 怒, 必, 惑, 造. 怒 usually associated with Chichi because it means rage. 必 - usually associated with characters using special abilities like Kamehameha, can mean "hisatsu waza" or "Deadly technique". 惑 - usually associated with freeza and his men because they are space pirates, so likely the character has a meaning of "space". 造 - means build so it is associated with the Androids.
