“	You have only seen what I have allowed. But now you shall see nothing. I am invisible. Yes. Feel my power. I am as transparent as cellophane. Tremble. For I am as the warm wind blows. Silent, but deadly.	„
	~ Murasaki

Sergeant-Major Murasaki, also known as Ninja Murasaki, is an antagonist in the Dragon Ball anime series, serving as a supporting antagonist in the Red Ribbon Army Saga. He was a member of the Red Ribbon Army, and General White's second-in-command of Muscle Tower. He is a very skilled ninja, but also a pervert prone to bad luck.

In Japanese, he has been voiced by the late Takeshi Aono and currently by Nobuo Tobita. In English, he has been voiced by Duncan Brannan (who also voiced the Murasaki Brothers and Monster Carrot in the same series, Babidi and Smitty in Dragon Ball Z, Dr. Myuu in Dragon Ball GT, Galdino in One Piece and Sugarboy in Fairy Tail) in Funimation's dub and Zane Sampson in Blue Water's dub.

Biography

Murasaki first appeared along with General White while Son Goku was fighting White's soldiers before facing Sergeant Metallic. After Goku defeats the robot, Murasaki is then assigned to stop him. He then fights with Goku who outwitted his mind tricks and broke his ninjato. Murasaki then summoned four of his brothers, each carrying a different weapon (ninjato, pistol, blowgun and kusarigama). Goku then defeated the Murasaki brothers so the ninja then resorted to summoning Android 8 who then went renegade and joined Goku's side.

Later after White's defeat and the collapse of Muscle Tower, Murasaki survived and returned for revenge, as well as to steal Goku's Dragon Balls. Murasaki goes after Goku and Android 8 on the ice, but falls in and nearly drowned, but uses his head to get out of the ice. Murasaki then swore vengeance before finally meeting his end when the bomb that was removed from Android 8's body landed on his face, comically killing him in the explosion.

Trivia

• Murasaki is one of the two manga characters to be killed off completely differently in filler (the other being Captain Ginyu). According to a special Jump, he resides in the world of the dead, so he is confirmed deceased.
