[[Dabura]] comes from and is a king of the [[Demon Realm]]. It is a dimension separate from the main universe, located on the opposite side of their dimension, like the bottom side of a coin (more specifically, ''Daizenshuu 7'' and the ''Super Exciting Guide'' books show it as being in the little pointy tip at the bottom of the snow globe that is the cosmos).

In ''Dragon Ball'', '''Devils''' (悪魔 ''Akuma'') are a race indigenous to [[Hell]] and the most notable being [[Spike the Devil Man]], the strongest of [[Fortuneteller Baba]]'s fighters before Grandpa Gohan appears. ''Daizenshuu 7'' slightly expands on this by noting that "devil" is not a general term for Hell's life-forms, but just designates Devilman's specific hellish race.

King Piccolo was also able to [[Birthing an Egg|birth mutant offspring]], and Lord Slug and his clan were shown to have developed a weakness to sunlight. However, if someone loses their pure evil attribute, they will cease to be a Demon Clansman, as displayed by [[Piccolo]], who loses his Demon Clan status by the time of the battle with [[Raditz]].

In ''[[Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2]]'', it is confirmed by both Elder Kai and Slug himself that Slug leads a Demon Clan and he teams up with Towa and Mira, though does not get along with Mira due to perceiving him as a rival for galactic conquest as Mira is the current King of Demon Realm whom Lord Slug likely seeks to overthrow presumably in the hopes of gaining control over Demon Realm itself to expand his army. Additionally Majins are referred to as demons and the Majin Future Warrior can become a Pure Majin with Good Buu's help, though Good Buu reveals their is a risk of Majins losing their "heart" and becoming pure evil essentially turning them into another incarnation of Kid Buu. However the Warrior avoids this fate and manages to retain their "heart" in Pure Majin form allowing them to utilize Kid Buu's abilities while retaining their original personality.

While training them as an Instructor Lord Slug is at first unable to tell the Majin Future Warrior's race and fails to recognize their demonic origin. However after watching them fight he notes their fighting style is close to that of a demon and realizes they are a Majin whom he states are legendary creatures of demonic origin. He had heard stories of all the planets destroyed by the original Majin Buu (whom Lord Slug mistakenly believes is the Majin Future Warrior unaware they are a descendant of the Good Majin Buu who inherited the power of Kid Buu which they can access via their Pure Majin form) and states he never thought he would ever encounter a Majin. Pleased by this revelation, he welcomes them to join his army pleased to add their legendary demonic power to its ranks.

{{Quote2|Worlds the demons control are dictated by one rule, and one rule alone-only the strong survive! Fwa ha ha ha ha! That's the only true way of life! The weak must be culled from the herd while the strong live on! That's how you build a world with only the strongest warriors!|Lord Slug explaining how demons rule planets in ''[[Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2]]''}}
  
⚫
He notes that worlds that demons control are dictated by one rule, and one rule alone-only the strong survive as the weak must be culled from the herd while the strong live on which is how one builds a world with only the strongest warriors. This explains why denizens of demonic worlds like [[Demon Realm]] and [[Makyo Star]] are such powerful fighters as weaker demons are presumably weeded out by the stronger ones (it would also explain why demons like Garlic Jr. hoped to make someone like the pure hearted Gohan his subordinate in ''Dead Zone'' as he only spared Gohan as he was strong and had great potential, likely believing that the boys pure heart could be corrupted at least before he recognized Gohan as a threat). Lord Slug also notes that weaker demons cannot survive in the light without helmet and armor which he notes almost brings sympathy to his cold, dead heart presumably referring to his army as Lord Slug himself can handle being on both Namek, Earth, and Conton City without bring effected negatively by sunlight (as he does not wear his helmet in ''Xenoverse 2''). However he notes that his Demon Clan has to plunge worlds in darkness as apparently most of his army are too weak to handle it (though this seems counter to demon philosophy of survival of the fittest presumably they are strong warriors when a world is plunged into darkness and Lord Slug prefers darkness due to his demonic nature as he considers darkness to be fundamentally stronger than light thus explaining this apparent contradiction) unlike himself (though this may be due to his Namekian physiology as Planet Namek has three suns which likely grants even the weakest demotic Namekians immunity from being weakened by sunlight as all known demonic Namekians are shown to be unaffected by it as it is likely an evolutionary adaptation, though Namekian have also have a strong tolerance for cold which may also explain Lord Slug's preference for cold dark worlds) and other powerful demons. Lord Slug mentions that demons tend to thrive in darkness indicating while some can handle it demons tend to prefer darkness which is shown by the Time Breaker's conquest of Earth in Age ??? which has dark skies.

{{Quote2|Your heart may not be forged from pure evil, but you possess unusual strength for a Namekian. Even if your a warrior-type, I would not expect such power! You could have endless potential! Oh, you are a very interesting case indeed! I dare say I like you!|Lord Slug noting the Namekian Future Warrior is not pure evil in ''[[Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2]]''}}
  
⚫
Lord Slug notes that the Namekian Future Warrior is not pure evil like himself and that they possess unusual power even for a Warrior-type and even suspects they have endless potential (which is potentially true as Guru draws out the warrior's potential several times and the warrior can also acquire [[Potential Unleashed]] through completing the final Advancement Test under Elder Kai) and he finds them to be an interesting case.

{{Quote2|Seems to me Namekians and Majin fight pretty well together. Are you sure you're not part Majin? You cannot master what I have taught you unless evil resides within you! Fwa ha ha ha! There is no need to act righteous! Not all Namekians have to be good, you know!|Lord Slug talking to the Namekian Future Warrior in ''[[Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2]]''}}
  
⚫
Lord Slug claims that most of his techniques are demonic in nature (though this is debatable as one of the Super Skills he teaches is [[Evil Eyes]] can be utilized by Goku) and that one cannot master them unless evil resides within them. He also notes Majin and Namekians fight pretty well together and even wonders if the Namekian Future Warrior is part Majin.

However he is disappointed that they are not a demon if they are any race except for Majin, though believes that if they stick with his army then the darkness inside them with come forth soon enough and then they will set out for the stars.
  
−  
⚫
After completing his training Lord Slug believes that darkness has taken root in their heart (which he refers to as the seeds of a powerful dark force) or they at least have a strong enough constitution to prevent their body from being torn to shreds, thus indicating it is possible for one to utilize demonic techniques if one is strong enough (which is likely the case as the Warrior is implied to be pure good and Earthling Future Warrior can ride a [[Flying Nimbus]] even after completing Lord Slug's training).

In the Unknown History Saga, it is revealed that Towa rescued her brother Dabura from death at the hands of Majin Buu using the time scroll for Age 774 during her infiltration of the Time Nest shortly before her own death in Age ??? which results in Dabura seeking revenge on the Time Patrol. He gathers damage energy to power himself and his artificially created nephew [[Fu]], the genetic son of Towa and Mira whom Dabura sees as his rightful heir as King of Demon Realm.

He notes that worlds that demons control are dictated by one rule, and one rule alone-only the strong survive as the weak must be culled from the herd while the strong live on which is how one builds a world with only the strongest warriors. This explains why denizens of demonic worlds like [[Demon Realm]] and [[Makyo Star]] are such powerful fighters as weaker demons are presumably weeded out by the stronger ones (it would also explain why demons like Garlic Jr. hoped to make someone like the pure hearted Gohan his subordinate in ''Dead Zone'' as he only spared Gohan as he was strong and had great potential, likely believing that the boys pure heart could be corrupted at least before he recognized Gohan as a threat). Lord Slug also notes that weaker demons cannot survive in the light without helmet and armor which he notes almost brings sympathy to his cold, dead heart presumably referring to his army as Lord Slug himself can handle being on both Namek, Earth, and Conton City without bring effected negatively by sunlight (as he does not wear his helmet in ''Xenoverse 2'').

After completing his training Lord Slug believes that darkness has taken root in their heart (which he refers to as the seeds of a powerful dark force) or they at least have a strong enough constitution to prevent their body from being torn to shreds, thus indicating it is possible for one to utilize demonic techniques if one is strong enough (which is likely the case as the Warrior is implied to be pure good and Earthling Future Warrior can ride a [[Flying Nimbus]] even after completing Lord Slug's training).

Revision as of 20:45, 1 August 2020


Demons (鬼 Oni) are evil creatures who enjoy using their power to torment, torture, and/or kill those who are weaker than themselves. In the Dragon Ball series, demons usually are humanoid-shaped, bulky, gray/green/blue, and have three toes on each foot. Many of them live in the Demon Realm. In Dragon Ball Fusions, they are considered part of the Offworlder race.

Overview

Demon Realm Race

Main article: Demon Realm Race Dabura comes from and is a king of the Demon Realm. It is a dimension separate from the main universe, located on the opposite side of their dimension, like the bottom side of a coin (more specifically, Daizenshuu 7 and the Super Exciting Guide books show it as being in the little pointy tip at the bottom of the snow globe that is the cosmos).

While Goku is training for the 22nd World Martial Arts Tournament, he visits a village located near the Demon Realm Gate, which is a portal to the Demon Realm. Evil beings from the Demon Realm come out of this gate and torment the village, and most recently Shula, the martial arts master of the Demon Realm, has kidnapped Princess Misa, so Goku goes to the Demon Realm and rescues her.

DBXV Demon Scientist Towa Sitting on her spear-staff Future Androids Saga Cell is Here?! Save Trunks! (Cutscene 1) 41629

Towa, a female member of the Demon Realm race

Towa is the sister of Dabura and is a brilliant scientist from Demon Realm. Her creation Mira is an artificial being who is primarily made up of DNA from the Demon Realm race, though is also known to possess DNA from several other species. They have a son named Fu, who will have a big influence on the world when he grows up.

There is no real name for Dabura and the other inhabitants of the Demon Realm. Daizenshuu 7's character dictionary simply lists Dabura and Shula as being of the "Demon Realm Race" (魔界の種族 Makai no Shuzoku).

Devils

Main article: Devil

DevilMan.Ep

Spike, the most notable Devil

In Dragon Ball, Devils (悪魔 Akuma) are a race indigenous to Hell and the most notable being Spike the Devil Man, the strongest of Fortuneteller Baba's fighters before Grandpa Gohan appears. Daizenshuu 7 slightly expands on this by noting that "devil" is not a general term for Hell's life-forms, but just designates Devilman's specific hellish race.

Devils appear as enemies in Dragon Ball Online and Dragon Ball Heroes. One specific Devil is named Psidevilman. They work for the Dark Empire, with Psidevilman as a high-ranking member.

Demon Clans

Main article: Demon Clan Demon Clans (魔ま族ぞく Mazoku)—alternatively referred to as Evil Tribes—refer to several groups of evil aliens that appear in the Dragon Ball series. To be a Demon Clansman you must be pure evil, and Demon Clansmen possess certain properties that their race does not normally have—notably King Piccolo and his offspring possessed abilities that other Namekians did not, such as the ability to completely destroy a Flying Nimbus and stop people's spirits from going to Other World by forcing them to remain to dwell in the living realm. King Piccolo was also able to birth mutant offspring, and Lord Slug and his clan were shown to have developed a weakness to sunlight. However, if someone loses their pure evil attribute, they will cease to be a Demon Clansman, as displayed by Piccolo, who loses his Demon Clan status by the time of the battle with Raditz.

Demon Gods

Demigra full

Demon God Demigra

The main antagonist of the movie Dragon Ball: Sleeping Princess in Devil's Castle, Lucifer, is given the title of Majin (魔神), though he is also mentioned to be a vampire in the English version,[3] and is also referred to as being a Devil. Note that this is a different kind of Majin from Buu's race, since the second kanji means "god", instead of "person".

Hirudegarn was once a Demon God before he was transformed into a Phantom Majin by the Kashvar wizards.

The main antagonist of Dragon Ball Xenoverse, Demigra, is also referred to as a Demon God (Majin). The Dragon Ball Heroes game reveals that he turned into this state after gathering enough kiri. Demigra is also noted to be the God of the Demon Realm. Mechikabura turns numerous members of the Demon Realm race into Demon Gods.

Majin

Main article: Majin

MajinMale&Female(DBO)

Majins from Buu's subspecies in Dragon Ball Online

The main Majin (魔人 Majin, lit. "Demon Person") in the series is Majin Buu and all of his forms. Buu is a being who exists since time immemorial and was awakened by the mage Bibidi. Buu is pink, can regenerate as long as even a single one of his molecules remain, and can absorb others to take on their powers and physical characteristics. In Dragon Ball Online, Buu creates himself a lover in the form of a female fission named Miss Buu some point after the events of the series, and by Age 1000 there is an entire subspecies of Majin descended from him and Miss Buu.

There are other types of Majin too, such as Ozotto, the final enemy in Dragon Ball Z V.R.V.S., whose English name is "Ozotto the Super Monster", or the Phantom Majin Hirudegarn, who was originally a benevolent Demon God.

With the exception of Ghastel, Lucifer's demons usually use machine guns and Rocket Launchers to attack their opponents.

Demons in Dragon Ball Online

Demons are spectators in the Devil's Toilet battle stage in Dragon Ball Z 2: Super Battle. Fire Demons, Miniature Demons, and Majins (Gogyo Majin/Ensei Majin/Spring Majin) are enemies in Dragon Ball Z: Attack of the Saiyans.

A "Master of the Demon World" is mentioned by Dabura in his pre-fight dialogue with Super Janemba in Dragon Ball Z: Shin Budokai, saying that Super Janemba appears similar to this master.

In addition to Mira and Towa, demons similar to Spike the Devil Man are enemies in Dragon Ball Online.

In Dragon Ball Fusions, both Demons, Devils, and Majins are all classified under Offworlder along with the Core Person, for example Dabura, Towa, and Mira are all classified as Offworlder in Dragon Ball Fusions. The game also introduces original Demon characters such as former Demon Queen Mirayo, Demon Realm Idol Pipila, and the Devil Butor.

In Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2, it is confirmed by both Elder Kai and Slug himself that Slug leads a Demon Clan and he teams up with Towa and Mira, though does not get along with Mira due to perceiving him as a rival for galactic conquest as Mira is the current King of Demon Realm whom Lord Slug likely seeks to overthrow presumably in the hopes of gaining control over Demon Realm itself to expand his army. Additionally Majins are referred to as demons and the Majin Future Warrior can become a Pure Majin with Good Buu's help, though Good Buu reveals their is a risk of Majins losing their "heart" and becoming pure evil essentially turning them into another incarnation of Kid Buu. However the Warrior avoids this fate and manages to retain their "heart" in Pure Majin form allowing them to utilize Kid Buu's abilities while retaining their original personality.

— Lord Slug welcoming the Majin Future Warrior into his army in Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2

While training them as an Instructor Lord Slug is at first unable to tell the Majin Future Warrior's race and fails to recognize their demonic origin. However after watching them fight he notes their fighting style is close to that of a demon and realizes they are a Majin whom he states are legendary creatures of demonic origin. He had heard stories of all the planets destroyed by the original Majin Buu (whom Lord Slug mistakenly believes is the Majin Future Warrior unaware they are a descendant of the Good Majin Buu who inherited the power of Kid Buu which they can access via their Pure Majin form) and states he never thought he would ever encounter a Majin. Pleased by this revelation, he welcomes them to join his army pleased to add their legendary demonic power to its ranks.

He notes that worlds that demons control are dictated by one rule, and one rule alone-only the strong survive as the weak must be culled from the herd while the strong live on which is how one builds a world with only the strongest warriors. This explains why denizens of demonic worlds like Demon Realm and Makyo Star are such powerful fighters as weaker demons are presumably weeded out by the stronger ones (it would also explain why demons like Garlic Jr. hoped to make someone like the pure hearted Gohan his subordinate in Dead Zone as he only spared Gohan as he was strong and had great potential, likely believing that the boys pure heart could be corrupted at least before he recognized Gohan as a threat).

Lord Slug mentions that demons tend to thrive in darkness indicating while some can handle it demons tend to prefer darkness which is shown by the Time Breaker's conquest of Earth in Age ??? which has dark skies.

"Seems to me Namekians and Majin fight pretty well together. Are you sure you're not part Majin? You cannot master what I have taught you unless evil resides within you! Fwa ha ha ha! There is no need to act righteous! Not all Namekians have to be good, you know!"
— Lord Slug talking to the Namekian Future Warrior in Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2

Lord Slug claims that most of his techniques are demonic in nature (though this is debatable as one of the Super Skills he teaches is Evil Eyes can be utilized by Goku) and that one cannot master them unless evil resides within them. He also notes Majin and Namekians fight pretty well together and even wonders if the Namekian Future Warrior is part Majin.

"I can hardly believe you managed to learn all of my techniques! Heh heh heh... Hahhh ha ha ha ha! The seeds of a powerful dark force were planted in you after all! Or, you at least have a strong enough constitution to prevent the power of demons from tearing your body to shreds!"
— Lord Slug talking to the Future Warrior in Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2

However he is disappointed that they are not a demon if they are any race except for Majin, though believes that if they stick with his army then the darkness inside them with come forth soon enough and then they will set out for the stars.

After completing his training Lord Slug believes that darkness has taken root in their heart (which he refers to as the seeds of a powerful dark force) or they at least have a strong enough constitution to prevent their body from being torn to shreds, thus indicating it is possible for one to utilize demonic techniques if one is strong enough (which is likely the case as the Warrior is implied to be pure good and Earthling Future Warrior can ride a Flying Nimbus even after completing Lord Slug's training).

In the Unknown History Saga, it is revealed that Towa rescued her brother Dabura from death at the hands of Majin Buu using the time scroll for Age 774 during her infiltration of the Time Nest shortly before her own death in Age ??? which results in Dabura seeking revenge on the Time Patrol. He gathers damage energy to power himself and his artificially created nephew Fu, the genetic son of Towa and Mira whom Dabura sees as his rightful heir as King of Demon Realm.
