~ Launch in her mean personality |
Lunch (ランチ Ranchi), known as Launch in the English dub, is a character from Dragon Ball. She is a woman that will change into two different personalities when she sneezes. While in her good personality she is a kind girl, in her mean personality she is a famous wanted criminal for robbing banks succesfully.
She was voiced by Mami Koyama and by Meredith McCoy in the Funimation English dub.
Personality[]
Good Form[]
This version of Launch has blue hair and big, blue eyes. The innocent persona of Launch is pure of heart as she is quite capable of riding the Flying Nimbus with Goku in the anime. Her personality in her good form is similar to Bulma.
Bad Form[]
In her bad form, Launch has blonde hair and thin, green eyes. Goku, Master Roshi, and Krillin are all deeply afraid of her bad side after she shoots them all with a machine gun despite all of them being strong enough to resist such an assault with little damage, a testament to her terrifying demeanor. Afterwards, all of them run behind a boulder several meters away in fear, after being victims of her first assault, when it seemed like she would sneeze, and carefully observing her during dinner, ready to run away at the first sign of a sneeze. Somehow, she always appears to have a machine gun on her, as a component of the transformation. Her personality in her bad form is tough, arrogant and serious. She often antagonizes Goku and Krillin and bullies them, but she is never explicitly evil with them.
Biography[]
Launch was escaping from the police when after she commited a massive theft. She was going to escape succesfuly when she had the misfortune of sneezing and change into her good personality. At this moment she was saved by Goku and Krillin, both took her to Kame House so Kame-Sen'nin will train both of them. While Good Launch works as a housekeeper, her mean personality is mad with the group for retaning them and shoots them always that she has a chance or tries to steal their values while she tries to escape, but always is stopped in the last moment whenshe change to her good personality.
