If I spoiled Super for anybody, i'm REALLY REALLY sorry! I completely just stupidly assumed that everybody knew! My bad my bad my bad!

[cherryblossom]

Arale is one of my favorite animated characters. She's just such a fun character. I'm happy she's going to be Super. I've missed her wackiness.

[JCgelion]

Looks like some fans haven't seen the original Dragon Ball

[yotsubafanfan]

I cosplayed as Arale at several cons to much success. (Being that people would ask to take my pictures and I finally found a popular anime character that HAS to wear glasses like I do. She also has blue eyes so no contacts needed!) Everyone knew Arale from Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z and we’re super excited to see me as Arale from DBZ. But some super special people (much to my joy) would know me as Arale from Dr. Slump and we’d totally geek out about Dr. Slump.

So glad that here, in France, Dr. Slump was aired on French television the same year as Dragon Ball (1988).

It's an awesome moment when you know everything Geekdom/Danny said in a video but yet you enjoyed the video anyways.

Great Job Bro!

Arale would smack Black Goku easily no questions asked.

R.I.P. to the author Akira Toriyama 🥰🥰🥰 this is how i know him before Dragon Ball

[darkuser]

In the 80s, I was a toddler and preschooler. Arale was one of my earliest animes. I always knew it predated dB and dbz. Super old memories!

[unlimitedst]

I read Dr. Slump series before Dragon Ball exist so I really know Arale. Kid these days have no idea how goddam powerful she is.

[Deutungshoheit]

Wow, that’s been 7 years already. Anyway RIP Toriyama Sensei and thanks for all those great stories.

I really enjoy Dr. Slump and all of the Dragon Ball series for different reasons. Dr. Slump is a fantasy based, gag series with no rules. The cool thing to me is that in her universe, Arale is absolutely as strong as Toriyama wants her to be. There are no limitations on her powers given the logic of her universe (or lack there of ;-) ) . I love comedy too and Toriyama is a true master of comedy. All of the Dragon Ball series are awesome for some of the same reasons. The characters continuously find new ways to increase their powers and access new transformations in various forms. There are always new heights to be reached. And in Super we're being introduced to new universes, new gods, and even new planets and life forms, albeit the ones that Gowasu and Zamasu observed briefly and others like them are probably still like insects compared to Saiyans lol.

Dr. Slump is the funniest shit in anime history! and yes, she is more powerful than goku.

[JuskiiMentality]

I cant even possibly think how Arale is so important and I have watched every episode of the series to ever exist.

[ConquerJS]

For some of the older DBZ fans who started following dragonball in the early/mid-90's and would read the mangas, Arale is familiar enough because short stories and random pinups of Dr.Slump would be included in the mangas, and in various marketing/licensed materials like fanzines, toys, posters, etc.

[milquetoast]

When my Dad was about 14 he collected manga alot, and was a huge Akira Toriyama fan. I read the whole Dragon Ball series, and I really liked it! So I asked my Dad if he had anything else by Toriyama, so he showed me Dr Slump! I've almost finished reading the Dr Slump manga, and I'll be doing One Piece!

[ProdigiesNation]

I saw her once in Dragon Ball a really long time ago, but dam! Never thought that she was that powerful. Can Goku even do that? Destroy the planet with One Punch, Man? See what I did there lol.

P.S. I was thinking about the time that SSJ3 Goku fought Kid Buu on the Old Kai planet. Didn't really look like he could destroy the planet with one punch. I don't see why he would even hold back either. And SSJ3 Goku against Beerus in King Kai planet. Is she stronger than a SSJ3?

[Sansankoneko]

I'm so glad that I wasn't the only one who had to explain this to people. Back in the day, when anime cons were still rare, I used to cosplay Arale and no one knew who she was hahaha. When dragonball first did their crossover, I was over the moon! It was such a huge deal! So old. Lol

[oefarmyvet.ipconflict]

Arale is a character from Toryama’s original success manga called “Dr Slump”
She’s an android DR Slump made and she’s incredibly powerful.
The series never got licensing to come officially to the US so most don’t know of her or this series.
But she has made a few appearances in DB in the past. Even once fighting Goku when he was in his “Great Ape” form and mollywhopping him BAD.
Because that series is considered a “comedy” the power scaling can’t really be compared but it’s sufficient to say she could absolutely destroy pretty much anyone in the DB universe based on her feats from her original universe.
Hope this helps anyone who didn’t know who she is!

Arale's power level scales based on how adorable she is.
