"Yeah, that's what I'm talking about! My power just keeps rising, it's incredible! I gotta say, it's a real privilege to be born a Saiyan!"
— Kefla facing Goku in "Signs of a Turnabout! The Autonomous Ultra Instinct Erupts!"


Kefla (ケフラ Kefura) is the Potara Fusion of Kale and Caulifla.

Appearance[]

Kefla is a young, slender woman of Kale's average height. Kefla's hairstyle is a mixture of both of those owned by the female Saiyans, being spiky like Caulifla's with bangs framing both sides of her face while the majority of her hair is held up in a ponytail like Kale's. Her facial features and eye shape are more reminiscent of Caulifla's, but her complexion is a middle between both of their skin-types complexions. She wears Kale's golden armbands however they are now the same shape as Caulifla's wristbands, boots though the red part of them is replaced with the black of Caulifla's, and a purple belly shirt with form-fitting purple pants (being a mixture of both of their pants) from Caulifla's color scheme. On her ears, she has two green Potara.

In the manga, due to fusing while Kale and Caulifla were Super Saiyan, she's stuck in a permanent Super Saiyan state and does not hold her hair up in a ponytail, which remains held up in a ponytail while Super Saiyan in the anime.

Personality[]

Despite being a fusion of Caulifla and Kale, Kefla's personality is seemingly only identical to Caulifla's, likely because Kale is shy and subservient to Caulifla in general. After being born, Kefla remarks she feels great, displaying Caulifla's overbearing confidence. She also appears to be possessing the Universe 7 Saiyans' desires to fight even stronger opponents and becoming stronger herself. During her initial scuffle with Goku, Kefla also displays Caulifla's cocky attitude, calling Super Saiyan God Goku's attacks "lame". Her overall confidence in such abilities also has Kefla believe she can beat Goku, even if he is in his blue form.

However, despite her immense confidence in her power, Kefla does seem to retain some of Caulifla's respect towards Goku. Outright calling him a "worthy opponent", being delighted when Goku reciprocated by going Super Saiyan Blue and seeming almost saddened when she thought she had defeated him easily and smiled when he stood up after having taken a powerful blow. Also, Kefla did seem to be even more eager and excited when Goku managed to reactivate his Ultra Instinct Sign against her and the realization of being potentially defeated by him seemed to have made Kefla develop a strong determination towards defeating Goku to the point it appeared she was deliberately trying to destroy him in a fit of rage. In the manga, she displays an almost defeatist outlook when fighting Gohan, realizing there was no measuring up to his "almighty universe" and it was their fate to get obliterated.

Biography[]

Dragon Ball Super[]

Universe Survival Saga[]

In the anime, with the Potara earrings given to Caulifla and Kale as a last resort, they assume the Potara fusion right before they are eliminated by Super Saiyan God Goku.

Kefla is born

As Kefla is born, she jumps back in the ring, and after displaying her power, Goku shows extreme concern on his face, remarking that Kefla has a seemingly limitless supply of energy. Wanting to test her new power, Kefla shows her immense speed, enough to catch Super Saiyan God Goku completely off guard. During a brief scuffle, Kefla shrugs off Goku's attacks, completely, calling them "lame", and knocking the Saiyan down. Kefla further pressures Super Saiyan God Goku, forcing Goku to no longer prioritize his stamina and transform into Super Saiyan Blue. To combat this, Kefla herself becomes a Super Saiyan. The two fight an even battle, however one of Kefla's attacks forces Goku to go Super Saiyan Blue Kaio-ken. Kefla then defeats Goku with a surprise attack, and prepares to eliminate him, however she is cornered when Goku suddenly regains his Ultra Instinct Sign state.

Kefla is surprised by Goku's Divine Kamehameha

Kefla answers by further powering up, turning into Super Saiyan 2, her power impressing everyone, to the point she claims she could destroy an entire universe in a single shot, and proceeds to attack Goku, who dodges all of her attacks and lands a hit on her, with Kefla claiming that he can still do better than that. Goku then surprises Kefla with a barrage of punches and throws her away. Kefla then proceeds block Goku's punch, only to be kicked away after trying to attack him, she then becomes enraged and starts further powering up and generating an onslaught of ki blasts and lightning bolts that covered most of the arena. Goku manages to dodge all of her attacks, though he was grazed twice by her energy, he then starts to charge a Kamehameha while dodging Kefla's attacks. He then jumps in the air towards her, and she says he will not be able to dodge in mid-air and charges a powerful ki blast and fires it at Goku, who dodges it much to Kefla's surprise, and hits her at point-blank range with his Divine Kamehameha, which throws her out of the arena and breaks her potara earrings, ending the fusion.

Kefla vs Gohan

Kefla battles Gohan

In the manga, Caulifla and Kale fuse to stop Kale's rampage and as a result of both being Super Saiyans, Kefla is automatically born a Super Saiyan. She then battles Team Universe 11 and eliminates Kunshi, Tupper, Zoire, Cocotte, Kettle, and Vewon. Kefla then fires a ki blast at Goku and Jiren, but is intercepted by Gohan, who challenges her instead. As they battle, Kefla gains an advantage over Gohan and mocks him by asking if he is sure that he doesn't need to go Super Saiyan but Gohan claims that he doesn't need to and has chosen to evolve as a human rather than a Saiyan. Kefla and Gohan battle to the point of exhaustion with Kefla laughing and accepting her fate of being erased. She and Gohan, at their limit, rush towards each other for one final attack, throwing a punch that lands on both sides and sends them off the arena, eliminating them in the process.

Anime
Kefura18

Kefla easily dispels Goku's attack

According to Vados, Kefla's power consists of Caulifla and Kale's combined power multiplied tens of times. When she is first born, Kefla herself says she feels infinite power bubbling inside of her, and Goku remarks that her power is so high that he cannot sense a limit to it. Vegeta also notices Kefla's strength during his fight with Top, saying that he felt "an incredible energy". On the sidelines, Kefla's power was enough to make even Jiren twitch during his meditation.

After Kefla is formed, Champa states that she is Universe 6's true trump card. When attacking Super Saiyan God Goku, Kefla, in her base form, moved so fast that Goku did not notice her movements until after she appeared behind him. During a brief scuffle, Kefla easily shrugged off Super Saiyan God Goku's attacks, calling them "lame", before easily slamming him to the ground. However, Goku was still tired from his fight with Jiren during the entirety of his battle with Kefla, and he was able to dodge and react to Kefla's attacks for the most part.

Kefla67

Kefla turns Super Saiyan to combat Super Saiyan Blue Goku's power

When transforming into a Super Saiyan, her power is enough to force Goku to go Super Saiyan Blue, and Champa also notes that he did not expect Kefla's energy as a Super Saiyan would be so high, while Whis notes her power to be "terrifying". Vados, on the other hand, is not sure if she could defeat Super Saiyan Blue Goku when he is at his full power, but Champa believes she can win due to his lack of stamina. Super Saiyan Blue Goku and Super Saiyan Kefla then go on to fight evenly. Goku then goes Super Saiyan Blue Kaio-ken in an attempt to defeat Kefla. In this state, Goku completely overwhelms her, with the fusion being unable to track his movements. After attacking her with a clean blow from him, severely damaging her and causing the spectators to believe she may be down. However, Kefla goes beyond her limit and gets back up, although she admits his attack really hurt. At this stage, it is noted that he only has enough energy left for one more attack - which misses. Kefla was then able to knock him out of his Super Saiyan Blue Kaio-ken state with a single kick to the neck, doing so by attacking Goku from behind while he was firing his attack, and due to his weakened stamina, Goku was immediately taken out of his Super Saiyan Blue Kaio-ken and back to his base form. Kefla finds it unfortunate that she was not able to fight Goku longer and prepares to knock him off the arena. Once the tired Goku activated Ultra Instinct Sign a second time, Whis stated that her power as a Super Saiyan rivaled that of the Spirit Bomb, which is what allowed Goku to retake his Ultra Instinct Sign form.

Kefla201

Super Saiyan 2 Kefla blocks Ultra Instinct Sign Goku's attack

When powering up to Super Saiyan 2, Kefla's ki rivaled that of the tired Goku's Ultra Instinct Sign state in pressure and size, which destroyed the arena around her and sent people flying away. Piccolo also states that she may have surpassed Goku's "earlier level" (presumably referring to his Super Saiyan Blue Kaio-ken)[1]. In this form, Kefla claimed she could destroy an entire universe with a single shot with her immense power. Vados assures though that while Kefla's attacks are very strong and fast, Goku's reflexes are still superior. In this stage, she could block a punch from Ultra Instinct Sign Goku but was unable to avoid a barrage of solid hits. Once feeling pressured, Kefla was able to intensify her power further - awakening an "unpleasant power", generating an onslaught of ki blasts and lightning bolts that covered most of the arena. Her ki control in this form is also very refined, able to control the path of her blasts and bolts to track Goku, which ultimately allowed her to nick his arm and cut some hair, which shocked everyone. Her energy was so strong that Roshi stated that if one of the blasts were to hit Goku, not even he would survive. However, even with her advantage in raw power, she was still unable to hit Goku in his Ultra Instinct Sign form as he unconsciously dodged, evaded and countered almost all of Kefla's attacks - even her last-ditch, final attack, using the Divine Kamehameha, which broke her Potara Earrings - defusing her - and threw her out of the arena.

Manga

When fused from Super Saiyan Caulifla (who was injured) and Legendary Super Saiyan Kale (whom had been weakened to the point where the weaker Pride Troopers could overwhelm her), Super Saiyan Kefla is said to be as strong as Kale - but with the added bonus of having Caulifla's fighting skill, due to these traits, Vados notes Kefla may be unmatched on the battlefield (however she is presumably not at her full potential, due to her weakened fusees).[2]

She is able to easily overwhelm every member of Team Universe 11 at once (aside from Jiren and Top) despite them being known for their incredible teamwork. After taking a punch from her, Dyspo is not sure if he and Kahseral together will be able to beat her - and is proven right as they are quickly overwhelmed and thrown to Jiren's feet. Jiren has no interest in Kefla and thinks fighting her is unnecessary. Ultimate Gohan is confident in facing Kefla and is able to easily deflect a charged energy wave from her. Ultimately, as Gohan fought Kefla he grew stronger than ever before and became Kefla's equal, in the end leaving both battered and ultimately led to a mutual elimination.

Super Dragon Ball Heroes

During the Universal Conflict Saga Super Saiyan Kefla is shown able to fight Fused Zamasu (as a Core Area warrior) in both the anime opening and the game, though she is at a disadvantage in the opening. In the game she is evenly matched with Fused Zamasu, until he gets serious and outmatches her.

In the manga, Super Saiyan Kefla is able to fight Oren and Kamin at the same time, albeit she is at a slight disadvantage.

Video Games

In Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2, if Kefla faces Champa, she is confident in her power to the point she thinks she is strong enough to challenge and defeat her own Universe's God of Destruction, though her this may be a result of her arrogance. She also notes Ultra Instinct Goku is incredibly tough but refuses to back down against him despite his power which is suggested to be above Kefla's. It is implied during a parallel quest that the Future Warrior is stronger than Kefla. She does however react negatively upon encountering Vegito Blue during a Parallel Quest and briefly complains upon realizing Goku and Vegeta have Potara earrings too, though this is primarily due to their resulting fusion Vegito possessing Super Saiyan Blue. However, she decides to embrace the challenge and manages to defeat him along with the revived Hit (Awoken) with help from the Time Patrol. If she is above 50% health, a change occurs in the Time Fragment timeline triggering an Ultimate Finish scenario where she and her Time Patrol allies face off against Beerus, Champa, and Ultra Instinct Goku. Additionally, Hit implies she can grow stronger as she fights through Saiyan Power.

Super Saiyan
TLSSJKefla

Kefla as a Super Saiyan

Kefla's Super Saiyan form is a mixture between Caulifla's Super Saiyan form and Kale's Legendary Super Saiyan form, gaining a slight increase in muscle mass and noticeable increase definition while growing noticeably taller, almost as tall as Goku. Her hair sticks out while turning bright green, and and also still remains in a ponytail. In the manga however, she doesn't have a ponytail, due to already being in the form. Her eyes also become bright green and, uniquely for a Saiyan in a transformed state, her eyes become wider.

In the anime, Kefla assumes this form in order to combat Super Saiyan Blue Goku and manages to fight an even battle with him. Her ki attacks forced Goku to use Super Saiyan Blue Kaio-ken, even defeating the Saiyan after a surprised attack. However, she is pushed back when Goku once again acquires his Ultra Instinct Sign state. It is speculated by Whis that Kefla's power in this form rivaled the Spirit Bomb that caused Goku to break his limits and enter Ultra Instinct.

In the manga, due to fusing when both the fusees are in Super Saiyan form, she is permanently stuck in this state and could not power down to base form during this merger's time frame. Unlike Kale, she does not progress into a Powerhouse state - presumably due to the control granted by Caulifla.

Super Saiyan 2
Kefla SS2

Kefla as a Super Saiyan 2

In the anime, Kefla possess the Super Saiyan 2 form, but once again appearing as a hybrid between Caulifla and Kale's Super Saiyan 2 forms.

When Goku takes on his Ultra Instinct Sign state, Kefla responds by becoming a Super Saiyan 2. For as powerful as her Super Saiyan 2 form is, she is still unable to land any hits on Goku.

SS2 Kefla

The powered-up Super Saiyan 2 Kefla charging a Gigantic Burst

When cornered by Goku, Kefla went through a fight or flight response and awakened a new unpleasant power, which Vados referred to as her "final weapon", and she became surrounded by ki that fired in all directions and was fast enough to graze Goku with her attacks. Master Roshi even remarked that even Goku couldn't survive taking one of these attacks head on. When using this power, her hair changed to a darker green color. However, she is defeated, as Goku dodged almost all of her attacks, no matter how swift and powerful they were.

Villainous Mode
During the Raid Quest event The Battle to End All Battles", Kefla (Super Saiyan) is granted Saiyan Power! state. She can be encountered by Time Patrollers who end up getting knocked into the Open Field stage after being hit by Jiren (Full Power)'s Scatter Attack. The rock-like crystal blocking the Wasteland's Gate to Open Field is tied to Kefla (and presumably the source of her Villainous Mode) thus any Patroller remaining in the Wasteland where Jiren is fought can damage Kefla by attacking the crystal while any damage to Kefla will damage the crystal.

Trivia[]

  • Kefla is the first female fusion to appear in the Dragon Ball anime series.
  • Kefla is the first known warrior to fuse with Potara in Universe 6.
  • Kefla is the first Potara Fusion character in the Dragon Ball anime series to fight in the Super Saiyan 2 form.
  • Kefla's is the first known fusion to ever participate in a tournament, seeing as she was made during the Tournament of Power.
  • Kefla is the first canon Legendary Saiyan Fusion.
  • Strangely enough, when Caulifla and Kale fuse in both the anime and manga they are both Super Saiyans, but when Kefla first appears in the anime she is in her base form. Unless the two quickly reverted to their normal forms before the fusion was complete (which was not shown), this should not be possible since fused characters take the state or states of their fusees meaning Kefla should've been in Super Saiyan form and been unable to power down from that form.
  • In Dragon Ball FighterZ, Kefla's intro shows Caulifla and Kale (both in base form) fuse into Super Saiyan Kefla.
  • In the manga, Kefla was the last remaining female fighter in the Tournament of Power.
  • In her Xenoverse 2 scan, Kefla is titled "the strongest fusion". She was also the only fusion in the game to not have her base components (Caulifla and Kale) as playable characters until the Legendary Pack 2 DLC. Before this they did make a minor vocal appearance unfused on the new Conton City Radio which occasionally plays over the city's PA system after the 1.10.00. Update.
  • In Xenoverse 2, Kefla encounters Broly in a Parallel Quest and notes he seems familiar which is a reference to her fusee Kale's similarities to Broly, as Kale's creation was inspired by Broly.
  • Despite being depicted as a Super Saiyan only in Xenoverse 2, she exhibits a unique visual effect when using Maximum Charge that features wind currents and a bio-electric aura, referencing her base and Super Saiyan 2 forms.
  • In Sparking! Zero, during Girl Talk about Kefla, Videl and the others wonder what her name would be like if Caulifla and Kale used the Fusion Dance instead of the Potara Earrings, coming up with "Cauliflail" before agreeing it sounds less intimidating.
