He's a cat. Rumor has it that Toriyama loves his pet so much that he used it to draw Lord Karin

What d'ya think about him? His role & impact towards Goku & the series in general

I actually admire him along the lines of Holy Sennins.

He sits waay up there observing events of Earth via 3 Pots: Past, Present & Future

The fact he provides Super Holy Water, Sacred Water, supplies Senzu & has vast knowledge about stuff (Roshi being Goku's Master, Piccolo defeating Goku & the latter's attempt to meet Kami Sama to ressurect dead friends) makes him distinct.

In Z, his character was practically non-existant. But I was cool with that.

Had sporadic appearances in Saiyan, Garlic Jr, Cell & Boo Sagas. His shtick with Yajirobe were ROFL as well

Thoughts?

He served his role, and served it well. He was basically Kami before Kami. A prototype of sorts. He was supposed to be a very wise sage-type being, knowing much about martial arts. But once Goku surpassed him, much like Roshi and Kami, it was hard to keep him relevant. Being that the main focal point is power instead of legacy, godlike entities serve little more than aids and measuring sticks.

Karin is one of my favorite characters from the entire DB universe. I think he's witty and intelligent.

Rumor? I thought Toriyama said Karin was based on his cat in the manga. Right before the chapter with King Piccolo destroying that city.
I've always liked Karin, mostly because he was very intelligent and sassy, while also being really adorable. Though he's never really been one of my favourites. He's still a great character, though.

Piccolo: Just how many people have you sacrificed?!

Cell: Sacrifice? Hmph, rubbish! On the contrary, it is an honor to become a fraction of my power.

Said rumor cuz I couldnt say 100% sure if I actually came across Toriyama's words on Karin being based on his pet

Even if he does, AT himself has said that most of the stuffs written before each volume/chapter to be made out by his editors. I couldnt be 100% sure of a guy who's not 100% sure whats written or stated to be real/actual event. Hence, my term "rumor"
