Background

Gine (ギネ Gine) is a female Saiyan whom was formerly a low-class Saiyan warrior, the wife of Bardock, and the mother of Raditz and Son Goku.

This dropdown contains the synopsis of Gine's story. Read at your own risk as you may be spoiled otherwise!

Appearance Gine is a woman of average height and slender build. She has a lighter-pale skin complexion, onyx eyes, and shaggy black hair reaching her shoulders. Her hair bears a resemblance to her eldest son Raditz, except much shorter and with bangs. Her eyes also resemble in a certain way her youngest son Kakarot before growing up. She wore a sleeveless black bodysuit and dark green combat armor highlighted with bronze and outlined by white, in addition to purple armbands and white boots. Her armor also had a thigh-length hoop. Like all Saiyans in her respective universe, she naturally possesses a tail, which unlike most adult Saiyans, she lets sway freely rather than securing it around her waist, however this is due to it being common practice for Saiyans to let their tails loose while at home on Planet Vegeta, as wrapping it around the waist is primarily a battlefield practice as even Bardock is known to let his hang loose when at home in Dragon Ball Minus, Broly, and Dragon Ball Super. In Dragon Ball Z: Extreme Butōden, she wears pink battle armor with blue armbands. Personality Gine had a gentle, kindhearted, pure heart, loving, cheerful, energetic and caring personality similar to her youngest son and both her grandsons, and because of that, she was not cut out for fighting. Even more, she developed a genuine union of companionship with Bardock; a rare case for Saiyans, who normally do not develop male-female relationships except for breeding purposes. However, despite her gentleness, she is shown to be protective of her youngest son, as she briefly argues with Bardock about sending Kakarot to Earth as an infiltration baby, knowing it is dangerous. She is also shown to be proud of Raditz for being assigned to invade a planet with the Saiyan Prince Vegeta, showing that she loves both of her sons. In Dragon Ball Fusions, she nearly reveals herself to be Kid Goku's mother when she encounters him in the Timespace Rift, though reconsiders and decides to keep their relationship as mother and son from him much like her husband does when he meets Kid Goku. She is shown to stand up for her fellow Saiyans when she overhears some fighters plotting to crush a Saiyan before they can transform into a Super Saiyan and become a threat, however she ends up being badly injured. Her refusal to stand by while these men were plotting to kill a fellow Saiyan is quite similar to her son Goku, who is well known for his willingness to protect innocent people and animals. After Goku comes to her rescue, she worries about him when he is attacked by Yamma while asking if she is alright, though she is shocked when Goku stops the attack. Seeing how strong he has become, Gine decides she wants to do something to help her son while noting that Bardock would probably tease her for being overly sentimental. Like her husband, she has no problem referring to her son by his adopted name, Goku, though she does call him by his birth name when she first meets him. Biography Background Gine used to be a member of Team Bardock. While she was a part of that team, Bardock routinely saved her from many dangers on the battlefield. This caused her to develop romantic feelings for him, which Bardock eventually began to return and the two grew to have a special bond. As she was not cut out for fighting, Gine went on to work at the meat distribution center on Planet Vegeta. She bears Bardock two sons, the first named Raditz, and the second named Kakarot. Granolah the Survivor Saga Main articles: Granolah the Survivor Saga and Bardock, Father of GokuGine makes an appearance in the flashback that shows the events that lead her husband to save the lives of the young Cerealian Granolah and the Namekian Dragon Clansman Monaito during the invasion of Cereal by Team Bardock (consisting of Bardock, Leek, Taro). It is revealed that Bardock found Granolah and his mother Muezli but couldn't bring himself to slaughter them due to being reminded of his wife and their newborn son, Kakarot which spurred him into helping them find shelter with another survivor, Monaito. Unfortunately, Muezli was killed by the Heeters leaving Granolah an orphan who grew up to hate the Saiyans for their part in the invasion. During the brief flashback to when Gine introduced Bardock to their newborn son, Gine wonders if Raditz will be jealous he has a younger brother, and it is revealed Bardock was the one who named him Kakarot. Bardock is also shown to share his youngest son's ignorance to concepts unrelated to fighting as Bardock notes how Gine's belly was smaller indicating he doesn't fully understand how pregnancy works. It is also during said saga that Goku finally hears Monaito utter his father's name causing Vegeta to confirm that Bardock is the name of his father, with Vegeta noting that Goku's softheartedness apparently runs in his family, indicating he may be aware of Gine's gentle-hearted nature in addition to her husband's act of compassion on Cereal (presumably through Raditz and/or due Gine's gentle nature ultimately leading her to leave the Saiyan Army). When Goku later listens to the audio on Bardock's scouter, his memories of his parents - previously lost due to his head injury as a child - were restored; him remembering Gine on the night he was sent away, as well as seeing other memories of her back when he was still growing in the nursing capsule. Broly film and Dragon Ball Minus On Planet Vegeta, Gine is butchering meat when Bardock returns from a mission and both greet each other in a hug. She tells Bardock that Raditz is already a fighter, and is working with Prince Vegeta. Since they are far away, though, they have not returned yet. When Bardock asks if Kakarot is still in the incubator, she replies affirmatively and tells that it took three years. Gine then says that she will take Kakarot out soon. A while later, Bardock tells Gine that he will steal an Attack Ball in the night so that they can send Kakarot to another planet. Gine questions Bardock, who reassures her that it is for Kakarot's sake. Gine remarks that it is not like a Saiyan (specifically Bardock) to worry about his children. Bardock shoots back that her uncharacteristic softness rubbed off on him. When Bardock brings the Attack Ball at night, he and Gine put the little and distraught Kakarot inside. Gine suggests they all flee, but Bardock says it is no use since they would immediately be found through the scouters. Gine nervously reassures her son that if his father is just overthinking this, they will come after him right away. Bardock warns Kakarot not to look at the full moon; they will tell Raditz about this too and Kakarot's whereabouts. Bardock also warns Kakarot to watch out for the Galactic Patrolmen as the pod rockets Bardock puts his arm around Gine and both watch their son leaving Planet Vegeta. Gine is presumed to be killed along with most of the other Saiyans when Frieza destroys Planet Vegeta. No account details her survival.
