This iconic character in the Dragon Ball franchise has never tasted death, unlike many other characters.
The legendary Dragon Ball saga is well known for killing off its characters multiple times. Although in the first Dragonball manga only Krillin dies and is brought back to life, Dragonball Z went a little further (a lot further). Our favorite bald man died again 3 times, while Son Goku, Vegeta and Tenshinhan died twice during the work. But in the middle of this massacre, there is a character who survived all this hell, even though he is surely the worst fighter of the lot.
The strongest of all Earthlings
Considered the strongest fighter of all Earthlings, Mr. Satan, or Hercules in the kai version, is the reigning world champion of Tenkai Ichi Budokai, the martial arts championship. It owes its title to the fact that during previous editions, the heroes of our history were not on Earth. As a result, he is considered by everyone as “the strongest”. But even if next to Team Z, he pales in comparison, he is the only one who has not been killed throughout the manga. Not present during the Saiyan and Namek arcs, he survives the Cell Game, and even proclaims himself savior of humanity. In Buu’s final arc, he survives a shootout, and especially the destruction of the Earth by Majin Buu, being saved at the last minute by Son Goku.. In short, incredible luck which followed him throughout the work and allowed him to obtain the status of the only character to have survived.
Mr. Satan, the hero
Although he is not very strong in combat, Mr. Satan has had many bursts of bravery. He surely served more than many of our heroes combined. On the one hand, at the end of the Cell Game, when all hope is lost, he triggers Son Gohan’s fury by sending him the torn off head of C-16. Then, in the final arc, he becomes friends with Buu, which will allow him to join the good guys’ camp at the end of the manga. Finally, when Son Goku needs all of Earth’s energy to launch his final attack on his enemy, Mr. Satan convinces all Earthlings to support our hero. This has the effect of creating the strongest and most iconic technique in Dragonball Z, the legendary Genkidama. In short, Hercules is ultimately one of the saviors of the Earth, while never having tasted death.
