Ranking the Most Annoying Characters in Dragon Ball Super

by Hazel

Dragon Ball Super has expanded the universe of Akira Toriyama’s iconic franchise by introducing a multitude of new characters, divine beings, and the concept of a multiverse. While many newcomers have resonated with fans—like Universe 6’s Hit and God of Destruction Beerus—others have proven to be frustrating additions to the series. Here, we rank the ten most annoying characters from Dragon Ball Super.

10. Goku: A Backward Step for the Hero

Despite being the series’ main protagonist, Goku is often viewed as a regression of his character from previous installments. While he maintains moments of heroism and strength, many fans criticize his portrayal as naive and oblivious, particularly in scenarios like recruiting Frieza for the Tournament of Power. Goku’s comedic elements, combined with a lack of growth, contribute to his frustrating characterization in this series.

9. Frost: A Derivative Villain

Manga Debut: Dragon Ball Super, Chapter 7

Frost, Universe 6’s counterpart to Frieza, initially appears to be a noble warrior, but soon reveals his true, malevolent nature. His character quickly loses appeal, especially after Frieza returns. With ineffective battle strategies and a lack of depth, Frost comes across as a mere imitation of a much more compelling villain.

8. Champa: The Ineffectual God of Destruction

Anime Debut: Dragon Ball Super, Episode 18

Manga Debut: Dragon Ball Super, Chapter 2

As Beerus’s twin brother, Champa’s character is marked by petty rivalry and constant bickering. His attempts to one-up Beerus lack substance, and he ultimately fails to evolve beyond a frustrating comic foil, which detracts from the interesting potential of Universe 6.

7. Arale Norimaki: Disruptive Gag Character

Anime Debut: Dragon Ball Super, Episode 69

Manga Debut: N/A

Though not originally part of the Dragon Ball universe, Arale from Dr. Slump makes an overpowering entrance in Dragon Ball Super. Her antics overshadow the main characters and undermine their strength, especially during her battles against Goku and Vegeta, resulting in a chaotic and unsatisfying viewing experience for fans.

6. Jaco: The Cowardly Galactic Patrolman

Anime Debut: Dragon Ball Super, Episode 20

Manga Debut: Jaco The Galactic Patrolman, Chapter 1

Jaco, the Galactic Patrol’s representative, often serves as comic relief but is characterized by cowardice. His tendency to hide in dangerous situations and his lack of reliability make him a less than impressive ally in Dragon Ball Super.

5. Quitela: The Unlikable God of Destruction

Anime Debut: Dragon Ball Super, Episode 78

Manga Debut: Dragon Ball Super, Chapter 28

Representing Universe 4, Quitela stands out as an unremarkable and lazy God of Destruction. His lack of compassion and inability to take responsibility diminish any potential for character growth, making him one of the series’ least appealing divine figures.

4. The Pilaf Gang: Annoying Antagonists Turned Allies

Anime Debut: Dragon Ball Super, Episode 4

Manga Debut: Dragon Ball Super, Chapter 7

The Pilaf Gang, once notable adversaries of Goku, return in Dragon Ball Super as comedic allies after a wish turns them into children. Their antics feel unnecessary, and their presence often detracts from the narrative’s depth, ultimately serving as an unwelcome distraction.

3. Zeno: The Immature Omni-King

Anime Debut: Dragon Ball Super, Episode 40

Manga Debut: Dragon Ball Super, Chapter 13

Zeno, the ruler of all universes, presents a dichotomy with his childish demeanor and immense power. While he shares a playful bond with Goku, his repetitive and immature behavior can be grating, raising concerns about his capacity to wield such authority responsibly.

2. Barry Kahn: The Egotistical Actor

Anime Debut: Dragon Ball Super, Episode 73

Manga Debut: N/A

Barry Kahn, introduced in a filler arc, embodies the archetypal egotistical celebrity. His attempts to sabotage Gohan’s marriage to Videl are desperate and sad, making his character a tiresome addition to the series.

1. Ribrianne: A Gag That Outstays Its Welcome

Anime Debut: Dragon Ball Super, Episode 91

Manga Debut: Dragon Ball Super, Chapter 33

Ribrianne, a parody of magical girl tropes, serves as one of the most divisive figures in Dragon Ball Super. While her character attempts to add comedic flair to the Tournament of Power, her overly extended presence and repetitive catchphrases detract from the overall experience, culminating in a sigh of relief when she is finally eliminated.

Dragon Ball Super continues to evolve with new characters, but not all of them resonate positively with fans. While some enrich the narrative, others frustrate audiences, making for a varied reception of this latest installment in the Dragon Ball saga.
