![]() ![]() In an interview, Akira Toriyama stated that the reason why he draws animal-type characters so often, is because he likes animals, but basically, it is because it is easy to do a greater number of variations. This is likely due to the more serious tone the series began taking. Slump, the Dragon Ball manga, and Dragon Ball Online, humanoid animals were very common, but they do not appear as much in Dragon Ball Z. Some animals are capable of speaking Human dialect without even being anthropomorphic, such as Turtle or the dolphin who gives Goku and Chi-Chi directions to Kame House. Man-Wolf, one of the eight finalists of the 22nd World Martial Arts Tournament, is part animal as well as part Human. Other significant anthropomorphic animals in the franchise include Captain Yellow (a high-ranking member of the Red Ribbon Army who is a tiger), Korin (a cat deity who lives atop Korin Tower), and King Furry (the King of the Earth, who is a dog). It is common to see anthropomorphic animals living among humans as city residents the two most recurring animal characters being Puar and Oolong. In the Dragon Ball series, 17% of sapient Earthlings are animal-type. ![]()
