Description

Son Goku, born Kakarot, is the protagonist of Akira Toriyama's Dragon Ball manga series, first published in Weekly Shonen Jump in 1984. A Saiyan sent to Earth as an infant, he was raised without knowledge of his origins and grew into a martial artist of extraordinary ability. Defined by an insatiable drive to test his limits against stronger opponents rather than by duty or fear, he has repeatedly defended Earth and the wider universe from threats on a cosmic scale across the series' decades-long run.
