Goku means aware of emptiness (The Go syllable means enlightenment, and the Ku
syllable means Sky or Emptiness). Goku's full name (Son Goku) is the
Japanese name for Sun Wukong, the main protagonist in the Chinese legend
Journey to the West, off of whom Goku is loosely based. Goku
himself started off as more or less a parody of Sun Wukong, and as the
manga continued its run he was able to develop differently, eventually
turning out to have "similar origins." Goku's design was based off of
Tanton, of Toriyama's prototype manga Dragon Boy and Tongpoo, from his
other manga The Adventures of Tongpoo. When Akira Toriyama started his
first draft of Dragon Ball he originally plannedAkira Toriyama's first draft of Goku
on making Goku full monkey to make it faithful to Journey to the West.
During Toriyama's second draft he wanted to make Goku a full human
dressed in sailor clothes that rode a flight mecha instead of the Flying
Nimbus. Toriyama's 3rd and final draft of Goku was to have him human
looking with a monkey tail.
Salza is from the same star system as Jeice, from a planet named Coola No. 98 (formerly planet Brench).[1] He is an alien with blue skin and blonde hair which sticks to the right. His planet's very high gravity helped him develop into a very fast and agile fighter.
Salza is very intelligent; he is capable of speaking 7,000 languages and is stated to be the genius of his planet.[1][2] He has a special maneuver called the Salza Blade, which is an energy blade and a forcefield that resembles a lightsaber from the Star Wars franchise. He also has a technique where he fires a blast from each finger, the Scatter Finger Beam.
To become leader of the Armored Squad, Salza was in competition with Ginyu. He is also among the few people who have seen Ginyu's true form.[1][3]
On Earth with Cooler, Salza successfully takes down Gohan and Krillin. After his comrades Neiz and Doore are executed by Piccolo, he fights against the Namekian himself. Salza decides to attack Piccolo with his Salza Blade Technique, but the Namek quickly gains advantage over him. Luckily for Salza, Cooler shows up and defeats Piccolo, ordering Salza to go after Gohan. Salza follows Gohan and destroys the bag containing the Senzu Beans. He then battles Krillin and Gohan and defeats them with ease. When Goku
recovers from his injuries and witnesses Cooler blasting Piccolo, Salza
takes the opportunity to punch a stunned Goku in the face, but to no
effect, as Goku does not even flinch and sends Salza crashing against a
mountain, simply by expelling his power's aura.
After Cooler is defeated, Salza emerges from the rubble, having
survived Goku's earlier retaliation, ready to exterminate what remained
of the surprised and battle-weary Goku, Gohan, and Krillin, but from
afar, Piccolo shoots a Special Beam Cannon straight through him, finally killing Salza.
Along with countless other Dragon Ball antagonists, Salza makes a cameo appearance in the film Fusion Reborn when the residents of Hell make their escape to Earth.
The color of Salza's spandex is slightly different in this movie, it is changed from purple to yellow.
