6 Piccolo
Age: 25 Height: 7'5" (226 cm) Birthday: May 9th
This bone-crushing character is a Namekien and a part of the Dragon Clan, the original creators of the Dragon Balls. Piccolo was introduced in the franchise as an antagonist, out to defeat Goku.

Master Roshi is a master of martial arts and taught multiple of the main characters in the Dragon Team all they know about fighting. He is a hermit that has lived for over three hundred years due to his impressive health.
Master Roshi also acts immaturely and inappropriately a lot of the time. He may not be the most respected character, and he could definitely use a personality change, but he is undeniably a dangerous force to mess with.
4 Beerus
Age: Over 200 Million Height: 5'9" (175 cm) Birthday: Unknown
This menacing God of Destruction wants the total destruction of Earth and will fight anyone on the Dragon Team to make that happen. He desires to be respected as a god and has a very mean yet lazy personality.

3 Whis
Age: Over 200 Million Height: 7'7" (230 cm) Birthday: Unknown
Whis is an Angel that serves as Beerus’ mentor, a fact that surprised many when it was revealed at the end of the Battle of the Gods arc. He’s a charming character whose love for food never gets tiring to watch.
He’s also one of the strongest beings in the show and the most powerful deity in Universe 7. It’s easy to see why he has made such a strong and lasting impression, with his training of Goku and Vegeta allowing both Saiyans to heighten their powers to a level that is simply incredible.
2 Broly
Age: 48 Height: 9'0" (274 cm) Birthday: Age 737
Broly is the first-ever Legendary Super Saiyan that was shown in the series, making a lasting impression despite being a non-canon character for the longest time. With his appearance in Dragon Ball Super: Broly, this character has finally become a part of the main Dragon Ball narrative.
This Saiyan’s isolation caused him a lot of pain, making him fly into a rage whenever his emotions reach a peak. His fight against Gogeta is a thing of beauty and shows just how much power this character houses.
1 Frieza
Age: Over 50 Height: 5'2" (158 cm) Birthday: Unknown
Frieza is one of the most iconic Dragon Ball villains of all time. The fact that he was brought back in Dragon Ball Super shows just how much of a lasting impact this character really has.
Frieza’s new form has allowed him to stand toe-to-toe with the best in Dragon Ball Super. Of course, there are times when he gets the short end of the stick… but that is to be expected, given the sheer wealth of power characters possess nowadays in Dragon Ball Super.
