Dragon Ball fans finally got the news they've been waiting to hear for what feels like forever. Not only does the God of Destruction Beerus Saga get a much needed enhanced rework, but we also see Super The anime returns with new content, with the anime set to adapt the Galactic Patrol Prisoner Saga.
It still shouldn't come for a while, but fans are still excited to see what many consider to be one of Super's best fairy tales become animated. In the meantime, it's never too late to familiarize yourself with some of the newer faces you'll get to know throughout the Galactic Patrol Prisoner Saga.
Dragon Ball Super: The Strongest Characters in the Galactic Patrol Prisoner Saga, ranked
These characters will make the biggest difference during the Galactic Patrol Prisoner Saga anime.
Escape
Esca was probably introduced in the Kid Buu Saga, but was never named and was part of a large group of Namekians shown in the manga. But in Galactic Patrol Prisoner Saga we finally get to know him a little better. Esca is the successor of Elder Moori, although he is still very young.
In the Galactic Patrol Prisoner Saga, Esca gets caught up in the confrontation between Goku, Vegeta and Moro. He is almost consumed by Moro, but is thankfully saved by Vegeta. Esca uses her healing abilities to restore Goku and Vegeta to fighting form and forms a bond with the two Saiyans. He is also forced to summon Porunga thanks to Cranberry, but ends up being saved once again, this time by Good Buu.
Goichi
Goichi isn't introduced until the end of the arc, and even then he's a minor player. Introduced in the transition between the Galactic Patrol Prisoner Saga and the Granolah the Survivor Saga, Goichi is the leader of Goichi's army, and is the one who procures the Seven-Three and the OG soldiers.
He doesn't do much, but if we see Goichi in the anime adaptation, it could very well serve as a teaser for the Granolah arc. Think; the last episode of Galactic Patrol Saga anime with Goichi on his ship, an alarm sounds and his guards wiped out by a mysterious green-eyed fighter with wavy hair.
The Macareni gang
Another group of small-timers, the Macareni Gang, consists of Pasta Macareni, the oldest sibling and leader of the gang, as well as Penne and Ghetti Macareni. Pasta-themed names aside, there's not much special about this bunch.
They are known opponents of the Galactic Patrol, having crossed paths with them and been captured by Merus in the past. The group is freed as part of Noro's wishes with Parunga, and joins his Moro Corps. The group heads to Earth in search of Sky Gold. When captured and defeated by Piccolo, they send out a distress signal that draws other members of the Corps to Earth.
The Galactic Bandit Brigade
We've seen world-threatening villains pop up in Dragon Ball, so a group of thieves isn't going to impress anyone. The Galactic Bandit Brigade is a major thorn in the Galactic Patrol's side, proving to be a somewhat competent group of criminals strong enough to give most Galactic Patrol members outside of Meru trouble.
They help set off the events of the Galactic Patrol Prisoner Saga, with their capture and their leader's subsequent interaction with Moro serving as the catalyst for Moro's escape. The gang members are all incredibly weak compared to Goku and Vegeta, serving mainly as fodder while Moro thrives.
Fairy tale dweller
The leader of the Galactic Bandit Brigade, Saganbo is just as unremarkable as his crew. The only thing worth noting about him is that he is quite durable, more so than most at his skill level. But even with that in mind, he's nothing special.
However, Saganbo gets a huge power-up thanks to Moro's magic. This makes him a much tougher fight than he should be, and he manages to hold his own against Androids 17 & 18, Piccolo, and Gohan. Unfortunately for him, it all comes at a devastating price.
Seven-three
Seven-Three is not a very interesting character, but he has a special technique that will make him a tough opponent to deal with. One of the OG soldiers, Seven-Three's Copy Ability is incredibly useful, making him one of the most versatile opponents in the saga.
The ability allows him to copy an opponent's powers and techniques for up to 30 minutes. All he has to do is touch their necks. However, it comes with a caveat; he can only store up to three people's powers at once. Yet this technology makes Seven-Three, and later Moro, one of the greatest challenges our heroes face.
Merus
A member of the Galactic Patrol and their number one operative, Merus is a mysterious but incredibly skilled patrolman. He plays a huge role throughout the arc, working alongside Goku and Vegeta in their fight against Moro.
Merus ends up being a great asset outside of battle as well, helping Goku with his training and playing a large role in Goku improving his mastery of Ultra Instinct. While Goku and Vegeta predictably play the biggest role in taking down Moro, Meru's contributions are invaluable.
Fun
The main villain of the saga, Moro is a major antagonist and stands out as one of the most unique challenges Goku and Vegeta have faced, not only in Superbut in the series overall. After being imprisoned for millions of years, Moro is one of the greatest threats in the universe, and he shows why in the story.
A magic user, Moro's skills are unique compared to most other villains. He's been given the epithet “Planet-Eater” due to his ability to absorb energy from living things, and that will prove to be a problem for both our heroes and the planets they're on throughout the arc. Many consider Moro to be the best villain Super has to offer, and we'll all see why when he's introduced in the anime.
