Not long after, Goku contracts a rare Heart Virus— of which there is no cure in his era— dying a rather morbid and realistic death. PIccolo is the first to fall, with Vegeta dying soon after. Without Goku alive, Vegeta likely stagnated in his training especially since the Cell arc is what really developers their rivalry. With Goku dead, Vegeta spends seven years allowing himself to acclimate to Earthling culture.
The moment he catches wind that Goku is stronger than him, Vegeta allows himself to be possessed by Bobbidi. These moments come in-between story arcs, usually as a means of allowing the supporting cast to stretch their legs.
Between the Goku Black and Universe Survival arcs, Goku hires Hit to assassinate him so that the two can have a proper rematch. While Hit does end up killing Goku, this is all according to plan and Goku had a workaround to revive himself. Resurrection F kicks off with an interesting enough premise and does a decent job at putting the focus on the oft forgotten martial artists, but things fall apart fast once Goku and Vegeta show up.
These are Naruto, Bleach, and One Piece. They are clubbed together for their popularity, their very Shonen characters, their length, and how they influenced the manga and anime industry. The term was meant to describe the 3 anime that were dominating the anime world at that time which were One Piece, Naruto, and you guessed it Bleach.
The Big Three are the top three selling Shonen Jump series for a prolonged period of time. There have been others, but the most well-known example is the period of time where One Piece, Bleach, and Naruto were all on top. Skip to content April 22, Joe Ford. Though he often serves as comic relief, Master Roshi has demonstrated his willingness to sacrifice himself for the great good on two occasions.
And he was rewarded by being revived both times! Master Roshi is very old but will never die of old age or natural causes due to the Immortal Phoenix.
However, he dies while trying to take down King Piccolo with the Evil Containment Wave, a technique that traps demons. The technique is very dangerous and difficult and Roshi failed in the process, thereby dying. He is later resurrected thanks to a Dragon Ball wish. Roshi is another of the good people from the Dragon Ball franchise who was transformed into chocolate and then consumed by Super Buu during the Fusion Saga.
Master Roshi, and many of his friends, were brought back to life when the Namekian Dragon Balls were used to revive everyone killed after the martial arts tournament in Kid Buu Saga.
This arrogant prince has died more times than he'd care to admit. He first died at the hand of Frieza, who beat him up and then gave him a Death Beam through the chest when he wouldn't shut up about Frieza losing to Goku. But he came back when the Dragon Balls revived him. Vegeta's second death was even more noble. He blows himself up when he tries to destroy Majin Buu. However, this sacrifice turned out to be in vain as the bitty Buu simply reformed and went back to his destruction.
Vegeta wasn't as lucky, becoming stone and disintegrating. This time he was brought back by the Namekian Dragon Balls. In the future, like many other characters on this list, Vegeta was killed by Android 17 in the Future Trunks' timeline. So Vegeta died three times, and was revived twice, but thankfully still lives on in the series, thanks to alternate timelines.
The twin of Android 18, Android 17 has faced death a lot more times: four specifically, with only two resurrections. The first time he gets killed is when Cell self-destructs on King Kai's planet.
At the time he self-destructs, Android 17 was trapped inside of Cell. But he gets revived, along with everyone on Earth killed who was killed by Cell, due to a wish made on the Dragon Balls.
He also dies when Kid Buu blows up the Earth but gets resurrected by the Namekian Dragon Balls along with the rest of the population. Android 17 also died two times in alternate realities at the hands of Future Trunks. When Trunks returns, he knocks Android 17 down and blows him up using his energy wave.
Gero's old plans. Remember Yamcha? Yeah, he's died three times over the course of Dragon Ball and managed to come back twice. Two out of three ain't bad, right? He first dies when one of the Saibaimen, the creatures created by a Saiyan scientist and released by Nappa, jumps on him and then self-destructs. He is eventually brought back with the Namekian Dragon Balls. The next time Yamcha dies is on Kami's Lookout.
He is one of several characters there who are turned into chocolate and eaten by Majin Buu. Everyone, including Yamcha, returns later thanks to the Namekian Dragon Balls. Gotta love those.
Future Yamcha apparently died two different ways thanks to inconsistencies between the anime and the History of Trunks special. In the anime, he gets killed by an energy wave to his stomach from the Androids. However, the History of Trunks special instead shows him dying from a kick to the neck. A skillful fighter, Tien still manages to die three times over the course of the series. He first dies when he tries to avenge his best friend Chiaotzu's death to Nappa.
He uses all his energy in a Tri-Beam attack that he fires at Nappa. This blast unfortunately fails to kill Nappa, just like Chiaotzu's self-destruction, and even worse, it results in Tien's death since he has no energy left.
He is later revived at the same time as Chiaotzu thanks to the Namekian Dragon Balls. Tien is later killed, along with everyone else on Earth, when Kid Buu blows the planet up. He is again revived because of the Namekian Dragon Balls.
Tien dies two different ways in the future. Both times he dies by the hand of Android The anime shows him getting killed with an energy wave hitting him in the chest. However, the History of Trunks special shows him die by a punch to his stomach. For the 1 guy people usually associate with power in this show, Goku dies a few more times than you would expect-- three times, to be exact. He first sacrifices his life by holding Raditz in place so he can be killed by Piccolo with a Special Beam Cannon.
