![]() Master Shen's students Tien Shinhan and Chiaotzu enter The World Tournament while Master Shen watches. Master Shen with his brother, Mercenary Tao Later in the last episode of the saga, " Which Way to Papaya Island?", he appears with his two students. Master Shen must have gained immortality in some sort of way causing him to live for over two hundred years like Master Roshi and Mercenary Tao.ĭragon Ball Fortuneteller Baba Saga Ī photo of Master Roshi and Master Shen as teenagers (with a baby InoShikaCho)Ĭrane Hermit is mentioned in the episode, " The Last Dragon Ball", and later appears in an old photograph of Master Roshi and himself. He eventually started the Crane School, whilst Roshi started the Turtle School, and their rivalry continued. His heart became dark, and his master's failure and eventual death weighed heavily on his mind. ![]() Mutaito returned and sealed King Piccolo with the Evil Containment Wave but died in the process. Roshi believes that on that day, Shen changed for the worse. Master Roshi states that when King Piccolo defeated Mutaito, he could not deal with the shame of losing in front of his pupils. Roshi and the time-travelling Goku arrived and Goku manages to stop Shen's plan, with Shen being forced to start his training from the start by Mutaito. When Fanfan rejected Shen's advances, he knocked her out and took her hostage with his two friends. In anime filler it was shown that Shen and Roshi competed over a girl named Fanfan. Shen and Roshi later became friends and in the anime only, for a time, the creature known as InoShikaCho was their pet. Shen and Roshi were both students of Master Mutaito, and they quickly became rivals. Shen does have some redeeming features, however he wanted to avenge his brother, and Roshi stated that he had enough standards to not free King Piccolo, knowing full well just what he would do to the world. It is implied that his negative personality traits stemmed from disillusionment with his master during the events of King Piccolo's first reign of terror. He also attempts to boast his superiority any chance he can especially toward Roshi, claiming his students are far superior to Roshi's, simply because he taught them.

No amount of Super Saiyan God Ultra Instinct powers had the ability to save him. ![]() Goku is one of the quintessential indestructible anime heroes and he was killed by a disease, which is almost unheard of.Īll of Goku's training was essentially meaningless in the face of something that could be engineered in a lab. Goku's heart virus is one of the most curious aspects of the series, as it is never mentioned again after he is cured. This changed with the introduction of Future Trunks, who offed the previous alien enemies as if they were nothing, so as to introduce the latest villain: science.įuture Trunks brought news of threats that were related to science and technology, as he had to use time travel to come back from a world where robots had destroyed everything, as Goku had died due to a mysterious illness.
