Videl

Videl is the daughter of Mr. Satan and Miguel, the wife of Gohan and the mother of Pan. Videl is a beautiful fair-skinned (pale-skinned color in the anime series) young child and young woman of very slim figure build and below average height with straight black hair that has side bangs with five loose short strands over her forehead, light-blue eyes and a slender frame yet athletic physique. Over the course of the series, Videl has had five different hairstyles. In her first appearances, Videl usually wears a long white shirt that went past her waist with tight black spandex compression shorts that reach her upper thighs, black fingerless gloves, purple socks, green shoes, and gold hair clips for her pigtails. In "Gohan's First Date", she wears a white T-shirt with purple sleeves, light blue short jeans, black fingerless gloves, purple socks, and green shoes. After she learned how to fly, she wears a white sleeveless loose shirt, a pink T-shirt, black spandex short shorts, black fingerless gloves, purple socks, and yellow boots. In the beginning in both "Gather for the Tournament" episode and Broly - Second Coming, she retains this outfit only her black spandex short shorts are replaced with a black capris pants and white boots with pink tips. However, in the anime, she briefly wears a white Gi with a black undershirt, black pants, black sash, dark blue socks and blue boots. After Videl was healed with a Senzu Bean—and for the majority of the Buu Saga, she wears white pants, a blue and orange "FIGHT" T-shirt with an orange long-sleeved shirt underneath (white in the original manga), orange shoes and retains her short hair. During Broly - Second Coming, she wears a bright maroon dress with a green cloth wrapping around the waist, with a large hat and grey tights. In Fusion Reborn, she wears clothes similar to her Buu Saga outfit only with alternate colors. In Wrath of the Dragon, she wears a yellow long-sleeved shirt and a white mini skirt that reached her upper thighs. The final attire she ever wore as a teen, before the 28th World Tournament, was a blue dress with a pink vest, blue thigh-high stockings, and pink loafers. She also wore this during the dance party that Bulma hosted to celebrate Majin Buu's defeat. At the end of the series, she wears a red dress and a red mini skirt with her hair grown back. Between the end of Dragon Ball Z to Dragon Ball GT, Videl's hair grows back to its length, reaching her hips and is done up in a long braid. In Dragon Ball Super, Videl is first seen with her current chin-length hair, and she has had it ever since. She originally sported a pink sweater-dress that reached her upper thighs, with a red stripe around the chest area, along with black tights and bright pink shoes with darker pink soles. For Bulma's party throughout the God of Destruction Beerus Saga, she changed her style to a red dress with a devil face mark on the chest, black leggings, and white boots. There is one scene in an episode of Dragon Ball Super where Videl isn't wearing her leggings. This is most likely because of an animation mistake. For the Golden Frieza Saga, she sports a plain red dress with her normal current hairstyle, black tights and white high heel shoes. Her design changed drastically from a teenage tomboy style to a typical house-wife style, indicating how much Videl has mellowed out to becoming a more domestic character. In the Black Star Dragon Ball Saga, Videl wears an outfit similar to Android 18's first outfit; a light teal denim jacket and skirt with a yellow shirt sleeve undershirt, dark gray leggings with white folded sleeves at the edge, brown belt and her yellow boots from her second outfit. Later in the Baby saga, her outfit has been changed to a new color. both denim jacket and skirt are light blue with a pink shirt sleeve undershirt from her main. In Xenoverse 2, Videl's Special Costume is a Swimsuit based on the Trendy Bikini which in her case consists of a pink bikini. The bikini top features a Turtle School kanji symbol 亀 (Kame lit. Turtle) on the top's left breast and she wears a frilled bikini bottom. When wearing her swimsuit Videl sports her pigtail hairstyle. Initially, Videl is a headstrong, independent, fierce, tough and tomboyish girl who was raised with fame all around her where she is also feisty and stubborn, much like Chi-Chi. Videl is quite perceptive as she had doubts about her father's claims of defeating Cell and correctly deduced that Gohan was both the mysterious "Golden Fighter" and Great Saiyaman, as well as ultimately coming to suspect that Gohan was the boy who fought Cell Games. She was also crafty enough to get Gohan to accidentally reveal he was Great Saiyaman, which she uses to blackmail him. She is also a competitive fighter as she blackmailed Gohan in order to get him to enter the tournament as she wanted to fight him after seeing his abilities and deduced he was the son of the 23rd World Martial Arts Tournament champion due to sharing the same surname, though she also demanded he teach her how to fly to ensure it would be a fair fight, which also shows she was not fooled by her father's claims that such techniques were simple tricks. After blackmailing Gohan to enter the tournament and teach her the flight technique (using ki energy to fly), she gradually starts to fall in love with him, for his kind and honest heart. Despite her and Chi-Chi's similar personalities, she did not get along with Gohan's mother at first, which was made worse by Chi-Chi's assumption that Videl and Gohan were dating, to both her and Gohan's embarrassment and denial, though after spending time with him she started to take a liking to him and his family. When Gohan suggests she cut her hair short, Videl blushes a bit, thinking Gohan prefers girls with short hair, but Gohan obliviously states that it's for practical reasons, since short hair would be better in a fight, she screams that her hair is her business and flies off, though she ultimately decides to follow his sound advice, much to Gohan's utter confusion. Due to being unaware of Goku's death, she mistakenly assumed that his father was estranged from his family until Gohan explained the fact that his father was dead and had returned to life for the tournament, which ironically was the result of her convincing Gohan to enter. Videl herself was understandably shocked by this and various other odd occurrences during the tournament, though she eventually became used to these things over the course of the Majin Buu conflict. She later becomes the wife of Gohan and mother of Pan. As Gohan's wife, she is very caring and motherly to everyone. She has a calmer tone to her voice and seldom displays her rough, fiery vibe anymore save for if provoked, as in the case of Barry Kahn. She also proves to have extreme faith in Gohan, such as when Barry Kahn showed her pictures of Gohan being kissed by Cocoa Amaguri and pretended to console her, Videl lashed out at him, saying that Barry was pathetic, and stating that Gohan must've had a reason to do what he did. Later, after Gohan defeats the infected Barry Khan, Videl hugs Gohan and exclaims that she loved him. This also shows that she knows her husband's character well enough to know he would never cheat on her and it is implied that she was able to see right through Barry Kahn's consoling act (she likely realized the movie star was just "acting" concerned) which is likely another example of her intelligence (she is also likely not easily fooled give she has a father who is well known as a gifted liar capable of deceiving a large number of Earth's population, presumably having learned to see through such deception). Videl enjoys Caesar salad and Okonomiyaki, a type of Japanese pancake. She is left-handed, as seen when she pitches a baseball, and writes with her left hand, however in Take Flight, Videl and in manga chapter 428, she holds chopsticks while eating rice with her right hand, so it seems she's ambidextrous. Notably, Videl's facial features and new short pixie haircut have changed as her personality changed a lot during in the Majin Buu Saga arc, becoming less harsh, and more soft, sweet, kind and gentle person to her friends and family like her late mother, Miguel, to her daughter, Pan, as a mother. Videl shares her frustrations over her father's arrogance and overprotective nature of her from boys to become stronger than him after the death of her loving mother since she was young as a baby to Gohan in the anime episode, whose mother, Chi-Chi, very overprotective of him to stopped him from fighting training with his father as a child and made him study for long periods of time. She later admits that she's falling in love with Gohan, as she sees him as a shy and strong person after he turns Super Saiyan 2 form at the 25th World Martial Arts Tournament. She is the one of the strongest fighters of the Earth from the outside Goku's circle of friends and one of the Z Fighters supporters alongside with Bulma and Chi-Chi. She slowly falls in love with Gohan, even more when she learns that he is the one who defeated evil Perfect Cell from seven years ago as a 11-year-old preteen in his Super Saiyan 2 form. Despite being a honest person, Videl is quick to forgive those she considers her friends and family, like forgiving Gohan, Good Buu and her father Mr. Satan for deceiving her for so long. Videl has been highlighted various leadership skills in her methods of handling affairs with other adults. As a trusted crime-fighting, vigilante fighter in the new christened Satan City, sheltered under the belief that her father was the hero of the planet (Videl finds out the truth about her father took Gohan's credit of defeating Cell seven years ago, but she's learned that Gohan defeated Perfect Cell), thus increasing her to have a heightened assertion in her martial arts skills. She fancies herself a hero of justice in Satan City, and works of her own accord with the police force to take down criminals, showing an intolerance to crime and corruption. Selflessly enough to place herself into danger, even though it doesn't involve her, the woman was well acclimated to the status of "celebrity", and earned the respect of the people who knew her and her father. In the anime episodes, Empty Planet and Time Struggle of the Fusion Saga, Videl says in big bad mouth at Super Buu for to wait an one hour, then Piccolo told him that she's Mr. Satan's daughter from prevent him try to kill her and Super Buu recognized sense her scent like her father. She asks Piccolo about Super Buu know her father, Piccolo explained to her shockingly understand about her father has successfully changed Good Buu's error ways and crimes from Wizard Babidi and make a best friendship before he's transforming into evil super form, but he's still has memories that a man have kind heart to a monster. In the anime parts of the Great Saiyaman Saga, she had an obsession to discover Gohan’s secret identity as the Great Saiyaman. The booklet for the Season 7 Funimation DVD Boxset says that she hates being outdone. This may imply that while she did fight crime in Satan City to protect the people, she also enjoyed the attention that she received and might have become jealous when Great Saiyaman first arrived. Her obsession to find out his secret identity is shown in Gohan Goes to High School, after Gohan as the Golden Warrior defeated the bank robbers, she claimed that someone was stealing her thunder. Also in Rescue Videl, when she saw him flying through the skies, she chased him recklessly through the streets of Satan City in her plane and didn’t help Gohan until after he got punched in the face by the Red Shark Gang to see how strong he was. Also in Blackmail, when Great Saiyaman was returning Chobi to his parents after he had been kidnapped by Mr. Musuka, she refused to listen to his side of the story, mockingly laughed at him for his misfortune, and proceeded to fight him. But she finally listened to him when Chobi’s parents, Toh Toh and Toh Toh's mate, arrived upon hearing Chobi’s crying. When Gohan almost blurted out his name while he was trying to calm Toh Toh down, she did briefly give in to her obsession by grabbing his shoulders, shaking him, and demanding to repeat what he was about to say. She was no longer jealous once she started growing closer to Gohan. In the Xenoverse series, Videl and her future husband aid the Time Patrol by working as Instructors though unlike other Instructors they train Time Patrollers together as a team. In Xenoverse 2, it is implied that Videl and Gohan are in the early stages of their romantic relationship. However, she is occasionally exasperated by Gohan's pure hearted obliviousness which frustrates her similar to how she reacted when he asked her to cut her hair short showing that her temper gets the better of her at times. This is shown when she attempts to ask Gohan to go to the movies (with the intention of it being just the two of them), but Gohan obliviously asks the Future Warrior to come along (unaware that Videl just wanted to spend quality time with Gohan), causing a frustrated Videl to get angry at him (like she had when she learned Gohan wanted her to cut her hair for practical reasons) causing her to un-invite him, saying she and the Future Warrior would go without him leaving Gohan once again dumbfounded wondering what he did to upset her. She also enlists the Future Warrior's in covertly help her learn more about what Gohan likes which she privately hopes to use to getting Gohan to notice her more though plays it off as part of their training showing that she tends to hide her true feelings out of embarrassment. In fact when the Future Warrior gives her Gift (Videl) which contains her swimsuit costume though finding the idea of fighting in a bikini embarrassing and suspecting they are up to something, she becomes intrigued by the possibility that Gohan might notice her if she wears it, though is a little hesitant due to her embarrassment at the thought of wearing it (especially in front of Gohan). However it is implied that she eventually came to better understand that Gohan did indeed care about her and that his obliviousness was simply due to his pure heart and not a sign of disinterest (Gohan himself was also a bit shy as well). This may explain her faith in her husband in Dragon Ball Super, knowing that him cheating on her was incredibly unlikely if not impossible due to his pure heart, as it would be incredible out of character for her husband given his devotion to his family. Additionally being the daughter of Mr. Satan, she has probably dealt with her share of male admirers in past like Barry Kahn who's interest in her was superficial due to her looks and status as Mr. Satan's daughter which he sought to increase his own fame by using the evidence of an affair and feigning concern in an attempt to woo her while in an emotionally vulnerable state, though Videl was not fooled and considered Barry pathetic (as Gohan unlike Barry loved Videl as a person and not because of status as her father's fame was the result of Gohan's defeat of Cell, though he never sought to refute it preferring to defend the Earth from the shadows with the Z Fighters and as Great Saiyaman, thus by comparison she was correct as Barry wanted more fame and attention despite already being a famous A-list actor yet deep down was a cruel evil shallow person who was jealous of Gohan's marriage with Videl) showing she has become a good judge of character.
