In the opening sequence of Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 2, the entire Ginyu Force strikes their famous team poses however, only Recoome and Captain Ginyu appear in-game. In most of the video games they appear, only Ginyu and Recoome are playable, though the first Dragon Ball Z arcade game also featured Burter. Continuous Crasher Cannon (Jeice & Burter).Purple Comet Hurricane (Jeice & Burter).In the 1995 film Dragon Ball Z: Fusion Reborn and Dragon Ball GT episode " A Dangerous Union", the members of the Ginyu Force made their escape from Hell and were eventually defeated and sent back. Ginyu has a few cameo appearances as a frog on Earth throughout the series, until Buu kills him by blowing up the earth. They later team up with Frieza, King Cold, and Cell in the episode Warriors of the Dead, but are all beaten by Goku, falling into the Bloody Pond, and are later impaled on spikes by Pikkon, and are locked up. Powered up from their training with King Kai, the dead members of Earth's Special Forces (which will later be expanded to the Z Fighters) are easily able to overpower the dead Ginyus, sending all of them into Hell where they are unable to escape. Recoome fights Yamcha, Burter and Jeice fight Tien Shinhan, and Guldo fights Chiaotzu. In the following episode, " Trump Card", Recoome, Burter, Jeice, and Guldo (who are all dead) arrive at King Kai's planet. Captain Ginyu (currently in the body of a frog) switches bodies with Bulma in the episode " Frieza's Boast", but inadvertently switches back with her while going after Piccolo in " Embodiment of Fire". All but Ginyu are killed by Vegeta, with Ginyu having the unfortunate mishap of body-switching with a Namekian Frog (and Vegeta deciding to be merciful for once).Īll the members of the Ginyu Force reappear (in the anime only) during the Frieza Saga from their current positions of defeat. The strongest of them all is Captain Ginyu himself, who, for a majority of his appearances in the series, occupies the body of a horned, purple-skinned extraterrestrial, though he is capable of changing bodies at will.
Recoome - high-endurance, Burter - incredible speed, Jeice - specialized Ki blasts/techniques, Guldo - psionic abilities, Captain Ginyu - consciousness transferring). The interesting thing about the Ginyu Force is that they have their own individual special or gifted abilities into which they can supplement their own ki. The overall embarrassment Frieza displayed when they perform their strange poses when arrived on Namek seems to imply that he had never met them in person before, or he had never gotten used to their goofy attitude. Though physically some of the strongest in the universe, the Ginyu Force's arrogant members delight in coming up with strange poses, betting candy on fights, and playing Rock-Paper-Scissors to decide the order they should fight. They are called upon by Frieza to assist in the defeat of Vegeta and obtainment of the Dragon Balls on Planet Namek during the course of the Namek Saga and Captain Ginyu Saga in an attempt to regroup from Zarbon and Dodoria's previous failure, which caused their deaths. The Ginyu Force is a team of super-elite and powerful warriors. The name Gi'nyu Tokusentai itself translates to "Special Corps. The Ginyu Force members follow the tradition of Dragon Ball characters being named for puns in this case, all manner of dairy products: Guldo is derived from "yogurt", Recoome from "creme", Burter from "butter", Jeice from "cheese", and Ginyu is derived from "milk". This resemblance to Super Sentai may be due to Toriyama's son interested in Super Sentai shows as stated by Toriyama in an interview.
DRAGON BALL Z LEGEND OF Z GINYU SERIES
Some of the recent references to the Ginyu Force's stylistic forms of poses and colorful display comes from Super Sentai series and even Sailor Moon. However, because Akira Toriyama's works usually feature parody, the stances used by the Ginyu Force may be a parody of the stances seen in magical girl animes of the time. The Ginyu Force has some resemblances and references to Super Sentai teams (like the Power Rangers): five color-coded warriors, tendencies to pose during battle, role calls and supernatural powers.
