Editing Dragon Ball (section)

==References from the {{Main Series}} series==
*The splitting of Malroth into good and bad halves in {{Builders 2}} is reminiscent of the characters Kami and Piccolo. The two were originally an unnamed being whose expelled inner darkness manifested as a violent doppelganger.
*[[Baramos]]' design bears a slight similarity to the character Piano, one of Demon King Piccolo's henchmen.
*[[Xenlon]] from the remakes of {{III}} is likely a tribute to the Dragon God [http://dragonball.wikia.com/wiki/Shenron Shenron].  Not only do they (Along with [[Ethereal serpent]], [[Boreal serpent]] and [[Infernal serpent]]) look extremely similar (the only differences being say Shenron's glowing red eyes and Xenlon's purple accents), they also grant wishes. In addition, the kanji for Shenron's name is 神龍 (meaning "god dragon"), which can be read as "''shen long''" in Mandarin Chinese (which, when the Chinese reading is said aloud by a Japanese person, becomes "シェンロン ''Shenron''" - the same as his name in ''Dragon Ball''), whereas it is read as "しんりゅう ''shinryū''" in Japanese, the same as Xenlon's name in the Japanese version of {{Main Series}}.
*[[Jackanape]], [[Whackanape]] and [[Smackanape]] bear a striking similarity to the Oozaru transformations.
*{{Parry}}'s hair style is the same as Son Gohan in his super saiyan form. [[Akira Toriyama]] was in the middle of drawing the Cell saga of the manga when {{V}} was developed and released, and likely used the cameo as a hint towards the lad's capability.
*{{Conkerer R}}'s last default name, Marron is shared by the daughter of Kuririn/Krillen.
*[[Carver]] bears a strong resemblance to the Southern Daikaioshin/South Kai. Appropriately, said character is the physically strongest of his group.
*The [[Demonrider]]'s outfit bears a resemblance to that of Emperor Pilaf's henchman Shu.
*[[Grody Gumpdrops]] is very similar in appearance to Majin Buu. The two have rotund, amorphous bodies with antenna-like structures on top of their heads and possess a variety of different magical powers. His name evokes gumdrops, a type of candy which [[Grody Gumpdrops]]'s body somewhat resembles, similar to how Majin Buu's body is similar to chewing gum.
*In the {{PS2}} version of {{VIII}}, when The {{Hero 8}}'s [[Tension]] is maxed, his appearance changes drastically. His bandana flies off and his hair spikes up, making him resemble Super Saiyan Son Goku. This little feature was added to the Western release of the game, as a shoutout to fans of ''DB''
*[[Morrie]]'s appearance is loosely based on [[Akira Toriyama]]'s own Mr. Satan/Hercule character from the famous ''Dragon Ball'' series.
*Many hairstyles available for character customization in {{IX}} pay homage to prior character designs created by [[Akira Toriyama]]:
**One of the available hairstyles for the male {{Hero 9}} is identical that of the {{Hero 6}} of {{Dragon Quest VI}}, and to Super Saiyan 2 Gohan's.
**Another hairstyle for a male is a mohawk similar to that of [[Carver]] from {{Dragon Quest VI}}, or of Android 16 or Uub.
*[[Nelgel]]'s (From {{X}}) humanoid appearance is similar to [[Orgodemir]]'s, as well as Whis from the revival of ''DB'' other characters designed by [[Akira Toriyama]], like [http://chrono.wikia.com/wiki/Magus Magus] from ''[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chrono_Trigger Chrono Trigger]''
*[[Nadraga]]'s (From {{X}}) design is a combination of [[Rhapthorne]] (From {{VIII}}) and Cell.
*The stock art of the male {{Elf}} in {{X}} greatly resembles the Eastern Kaioshin (Supreme Kai), with only the clothing and hair being different.
*The {{Luminary}} has the same hairstyle as Android 17, as well as a similar physique.
