Dragon Ball features some of the most iconic characters in anime and manga history. Goku and Vegeta have more or less become unofficial mascots of the art forms over the last several decades, while even its side characters, like Krillin and Yamcha, are well known outside the incredibly large and ever-growing Dragon Ball fan base. Ultimately, however, the series' Saiyans will always lead the way in terms of popularity. One of which, oddly enough, has remained popular among fans and even the creator of the series since his debut, despite having little screen time.
