Pure Majin (真魔人 Shin Majin, lit. "Pure Demon Person")[7] is the true form taken on by Majins after the process of purification. The form first appeared in Dragon Ball Online and since then, has become a prominent transformation for the members of the Majin race.

Overview[]

In this state, a Majin takes on the appearance and mannerisms of Kid Buu, the pure form of the Majin race's progenitor Majin Buu. However, some Pure Majin retain certain traits from their base form, such as their voice and skin color.

Usage and power[]

In the past, Majin Buu existed in his Pure Majin form until absorbing the South Supreme Kai.

During the Kid Buu Saga, Super Buu is forced to return to his Pure Majin form: Kid Buu, by Vegeta after he separated Good Buu from him - however he is technically different from his prior pure state due to retaining the majority of the Grand Supreme Kai's god power.

The Majin Fin created by Demon Goddess Towa has his own version of the Pure Majin form unrelated to Kid Buu or his genetic progeny though like the normal Pure Majin form, Fin's Pure Majin form is short in stature and acts as Fin's base form.

Other Dragon Ball stories[]

In Dragon Ball Heroes: Victory Mission, the Earthling Salaga can use a Dragon Ball Heroes machine to take on the form of his Majin Berserker Hero Avatar which appears in his Pure Majin form.

Video Game Appearances[]

In Dragon Ball Online, This transformation makes its debut appearance. The Majin race has weakened over the generations and can only transform into their Pure Majin forms after a wish from Shenron. When a Majin takes their true form, their dormant power that was lost over the generations is released and they become much stronger. Android Majins in their Pure Majin form wear Time Breaker Masks similar to those under Time Breaker Mind Control.

In Shin Budokai - Another Road, Future Super Buu eats and absorbing Future Babidi, who's power allows Future Super Buu to achieve his Pure Majin form, Future Kid Buu. Like his main timeline counterpart, Future Kid Buu becomes pure evil after spitting out Future Good Buu.

In Dragon Ball Heroes, the Majin Berserker Salaga has similar traits of a Pure Majin, but this is not explicitly stated in the game.

In Xenoverse 2, Majins can take this form using the "Purification" Awoken Skill. The skill is taught to the Majin Future Warrior by Mr. Buu in the Majin Buu's house Time Rift anomaly after assisting him in creating three children via Fission. While in this form, they inherit all of Kid Buu's abilities along with some new attacks not used by the playable Kid Buu. With the exception of their voice, female Majins lose most of their feminine traits while in their Pure Majin form. However, it is shown that this form drains a Majin's stamina and causes them to revert to their original form when their stamina runs out, leaving them temporarily vulnerable. As a result, Majins can only remain in the form as long as they have stamina. Before helping them achieve the form, Mr. Buu warns the Future Warrior that turning into a Pure Majin is dangerous and could potentially cause them to lose their heart, effectively turning into another version of Kid Buu altogether. The Future Warrior, however, manages to avoid this fate, being able to shift between forms at will. As a result, attempting this transformation comes with the additional risk of potentially unleashing another Kid Buu on the universe. As of the 1.16 version update, the form drain has been removed, though they cannot regain stamina by attacking, only being able to recover through the Quick Sleep skill. Majins in this form retain their voice, regardless of gender, as well as the color of their skin and eyes.

As part of the Super Pack 3 DLC, there is a new Super Soul called "Eehee hee hee heee!" (which is described as one of Kid Buu's Super Souls in its description) which activates when Purification is used. This Super Soul can be obtained by the Future Warrior as a reward in New Parallel Quest 108: "Doppelganger Dispute!".

Clone Kid Buu

Pure Majin Buu Clone in FighterZ

In FighterZ, Android 21's attempt to create Clone Buus results in the creation of Pure Majin clones whose behavior and personality are identical to the original Kid Buu to the point other characters refer to them and treat them as incarnations of Kid Buu. This differs from the other cloned fighters which are little more than mindless drones that only know how to fight and have no real personality to speak of. This is implied to be due to the uncontrollable nature of Majin cells which is implied to be the source of Android 21's insatiable hunger and destructive evil split personality. Interestingly no other cloned incarnations of Buu are encountered implying the process used to create them purified them. Alternatively, the heartless nature of the clones may have contributed to them becoming Pure Majins given that natural Majins risk losing their "heart" and become another incarnation of Kid Buu while acquiring their Pure Majin form thus conversely the Kid Buu clones may have automatically become Pure Majins as they are essentially artificially created heartless clones of Majin Buu, which essentially turns them into incarnations of Kid Buu.

In a Special Event with Good Buu and Clone Buu, Adult Gohan notes that it should be impossible to clone Kid Buu from his cells as he would have been able to survive and regenerate if that were the case, so presumably Android 21 used Good Buu's cells which are known to possess Kid Buu's latent power given the fact that Good Buu's genetic offspring can acquire the Pure Majin form. This implies that cloning Majins with Earth-based technology and science is dangerous presumably due to their demonic and magical nature of their cells being beyond the understanding of mortal science, thus resulting in uncontrollable Pure Majin clones instead of obedient mindless drones.

In Dokkan Battle, Clone Buus appear as non-playable enemies in the Story Event that adapts the Super Warrior Arc of FighterZ.

In World Mission, Clone Buu appears as an enemy in the Frieza Path Four-Star Boss Mission - "Defeat Clone Frieza and his allies" in Arcade Mode Universe Mission Age "Android 21 Saga: Activation". This Clone Buu can be captured via Super Hero Robo Capture Module allowing Beat to create a Clone Kid Buu Summon Module to summon Clone Buu's VR Card to make Clone Buu temporarily playable during the Round he is summoned in. Additionally Beat can choose to play as a Majin Berserker if his Hero Avatar's selected race is Majin.

Trivia[]

  • In Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2, it is implied that this transformation is risky for Majins as they may lose their heart in the process, causing them to become pure evil and essentially becoming another incarnation of Kid Buu.
    • This may explain why some Pure Majins join the Time Breakers in Dragon Ball Online as they may have lost their hearts in the process of transforming, leading them to become evil Pure Majins (while others may have simply been evil Majins who obtained their Pure Majin form).
      • This also likely explains why the Android Majins that obtain their Pure Majin form are equipped with Time Breaker Masks, as it makes sense as at the very least a precautionary measure to insure their Pure Majin Bio-Androids remain under the control of the Time Breaker leadership as were they to become incarnations of Kid Buu, they would be as hard to control as rampaging Great Apes due to Kid Buu's personality which is why they utilize the masks which is similar to Time Breakers' practice of using mind control gems to control Great Apes with Time Breaker Mind Control.
