The Dragon Ball manga and anime series feature an extensive cast of characters created by Akira Toriyama, shown compete in tournaments using various superhuman abilities. The series' storyline follows the adventures of martial artist Son Goku as he searches for the seven spheres known as the Dragon Balls, used to summon a wish-granting dragon. During the course of the story, he encounters rivals such as Tenshinhan, Piccolo, Vegeta, and Freeza; and allies such as , Kuririn, and Trunks.

During this period of the series, Toriyama placed less emphasis on the imagery, simplifying the lines and sometimes making things "too square"; found problems determining the colors; and sometimes altered them mid-story. For the female characters, Toriyama created women he deemed "beautiful and sexy", but also "strong".

Additional characters (such as and Kuririn) and martial arts tournaments were added to give the manga a greater emphasis on fighting. Knowing readers would expect Goku to win the tournaments, Toriyama had him lose the first two while continuing to plan an eventual victory. When having fights in the manga, Toriyama had the characters go to a place where nobody lived to avoid difficulties in drawing destroyed buildings. In order to advance the story quickly, he also gave most fighters the ability to fly, and later granted Goku Teleportation.

Protagonist of the Dragon Ball series, in that Goku, full name Son Goku, is immensely strong, pure of heart, and extremely competitive, but dedicated to defending the Earth from evil. Though he appears human, Goku is descended from an alien warrior race known as the Saiyans, who sent him, originally named Kakarrot, to the planet to prepare it for conquest. His wife is Chi-Chi, and he has two sons, Gohan and Goten, equal or greater to him in ability.

King Kai has not been a contender in any CBUB matches.
