Background

Mr. Satan, also known as Hercule Satan in the Funimation dub, is the World Martial Arts Champion and the Earth's protector. His real name is Mark.

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

Legend of Mr. Satan (Legend of Hercule in the North American versions) is an optional mode unlocked through capsules. In this mode, players control Hercule as he defeats several opponents, arcade-style. Some fights have special conditions, such as only using Ki to attack, or defeating the opponent within a time limit. The final opponent is Perfect Cell.

In this alternate reality, Hercule actually fights and defeats all of the Z fighters, and Perfect Cell, saving the world.

Powers and Abilities

Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Genius Intelligence, Weapon Mastery (Can utilize bombs for explosions along with using guns to fire at enemies), Martial Arts, Acrobatics, Social Influencing (Convinced Majin Buu to stop killing people, convinced everyone on Earth to give their energy for the spirit bomb. Though this Hercules boasts are true, he should still have his canon counterpart's mastery of lying and cheating, convincing the entire world that he is their savior on two seperate occassions), Preparation (Mr. Satan comes to fights prepared with different ways of harming or killing the opponent outside of his brute strength), Transformation (Can enter a state known as "high tension" where he is far more powerful), Chi Manipulation & Ki Manipulation (Noted that Mr. Satan can use ki. All beings in Dragon Ball have ki, the very life force energy of all characters, ki allows a fighter to extend beyond their bodies limits, allowing them to even block attacks that would otherwise kill them from raising their guard, higher level users can lower their own durability to allow people far below them to fatally wound them. A users ki aura can exert itself as a weapon to attack), Attack Reflection (All Ki users are able to reflect attacks just by being stronger than their opponent. Examples include, Nappa deflecting a masenko from Son Gohan, Son Gohan being able to bounce back the spirit bomb, Son Goku deflecting a crusher ball from Jeice, Frieza deflecting a Final Burst Cannon from Vegeta, Son Goku reflecting multiple death beams back to back from Frieza, and Future Trunks being able to completely repel an energy blast with his hand from a Frieza Soldier just by being much stronger than them), Homing Attack (Ki users can create attacks that will home in and chase a target forever), Power Absorption & Transferal (Ki users can transfer their ki to others and absorb the ki given to them from others), Aura (He can surround himself in an aura of Ki. Has an aura of ki surrounding him whenever he exerts ki), Vibration Manipulation (Powerful ki users can cause the very ground itself to shake when they power up), Pseudo-Fear Manipulation, Limited Soul Manipulation & Pain Manipulation (Ki is the manifestation of one’s lifeforce, along with the aura giving one the feeling of being crushed, exerting fear into the target, sometimes making them incapable of moving as their body is instinctively stuck due to the sheer difference in power), Forcefield Creation (Ki users such as Cell can generate forcefields around themselves. These forcefields can be expanded, and used to protect others and defend against attacks far higher then the user), Self-Destruction (Ki users in Dragon Ball are able to release all of the energy within them to cause a massive self-destruction of energy that normally kills the user and turns them into dust though one can control it to surviving but having no stamina or energy left), Light Manipulation (Ki can be used as a flash of light), Non-Physical Interaction (Those with Ki were able to harm the Ghost Warriors), Healing (Ki can be used to heal beings, allowing them to survive even with half their torso, it can also heal from near death), Fusionism (Like other characters, Hercule can perform the Fusion Dance), Explosion Manipulation (With Dynamite Kick, causes explosions with each kick. With "Present for You", gives a fake video game console that has an explosive in it, has enough tnt to disintegrate a tank), Poison Manipulation (Can put poisons in food)


Standard Equipment

  • 45-Calibre Gun: Mr. Satan used his handgun in attempt to stop Super Buu's Finger Beam, and believed he did so when Tien Shinhan obliterated the ball with his Tri-Beam technique without Satan noticing this. He also uses it against Merus in self-defense when trying to stop the Galactic Patrol from taking Good Buu, but Merus shoots the bullets down with his Ray Gun. He also uses it in Dragon Ball Z: Shin Butōden to cheat in the Satan Mode, and in the Legacy of Goku series to replace the Ki Blasts the other playable characters can use. Appears in Dragon Ball Fusions as one of Mr. Satan's Special Moves under the name .45 Gun.
  • Poison: Among the various items Mr. Satan utilized in his attempts to kill Innocent Buu.
    • Fancy Chocolates! Help yourself!: A box of high quality gourmet chocolate which Mr. Satan secretly laced with poison. Given to Innocent Buu during one of Mr. Satan's covert attempts to kill the Majin. Unfortunately, Majin Buu's digestive system is easily able to handle the toxin, resulting in Innocent Buu suffering no ill effects.
  • Present For You: Mr. Satan dashes towards his opponent, stops at the last second, hands his opponent a giftwrapped box (which contains a handheld video game console and game), and then he runs off as his opponent is distractedly playing the portable game. Satan then pushes a remote-control button to make the handheld game explode.
  • Jetpack: A piece of equipment used by Mr. Satan to fly without the use of ki.

Notable Techniques

*Hikou: Mr. Satan can "fly" by utilizing a jetpack.

  • Dynamite Kick: Mr. Satan used this against Perfect Cell, with no effect outside of video games.
  • Hercule Critical Attack: Mr. Satan kicks the opponent up in the air, then he kicks and punches them down back.
  • Hercule Miracle Bomber: Mr. Satan attacks the opponent with weak punches, and then tries to kick them, but the opponent hits Satan up in the air. When Mr. Satan comes falling down, he lands on the opponent for damage.
  • Rolling Hercule Punch: Mr. Satan rolls towards the opponent, only to make a punch that slams the opponent away. White and blue stars, along with funny sounds emits when he successfully hit the opponent.
  • Present For You: Mr. Satan dashes towards his opponent, stops at the last second, hands his opponent a giftwrapped box (which contains a handheld video game console and game), and then he runs off as his opponent is distractedly playing the portable game. Satan then pushes a remote-control button to make the handheld game explode.

*High Tension: Mr. Satan can use High Tension as a transformation in the Budokai series. Once activated, white aura seeps out through his skin and radiates in a flame-like manner. Mr. Satan's daughter, Videl, has the same type of aura.


Other

Standard Tactics: Mr. Satan will use martial arts techniques along with his dynamite kick attack or "Present for You!".

Weaknesses: Due to the nature of ki draining stamina and energy, Dragon Ball characters ki usage requires them to usually use their higher levels of energy in short bursts, allowing them to not be able to tank or die to far lower attacks such as attacks that have destroyed the planets of several worlds.

Note: Some clips used on the profile come from an anime or movie due to the fact that some abilities from ki use shouldn't function much differently from how they can in canon, along with this sometimes the anime version/video game version of a scene will be used for cleaner visuals. Toriyama himself directly overlooks scenes in the anime and movies and gives Toei the thumbs up[2].

Note 2: The speed scaling for PLs are taken with a grain of salt as there are noticeable times where someone's speed isn't equal to their power, such as Burter being faster then Recoome and Jeice, along with Super Saiyan Grade 3 Trunks having his power greatly increased but his speed decreased.

Trivia

  • In Dragon Ball Z: Budokai, during The Legend of Mr. Satan mode, he remarks that Piccolo resembles the evil King Piccolo, indicating that he was present during his attempts of world domination, or is at least aware of him.

  1. "Q4: Is “Mister Satan” his real name?
    It’s a ring name!
    I gave him a ring name that was reminiscent of a pro grappler. His real name is “Mark”1. Since the region where Satan lives doesn’t split up names into given names and family names, his name is simply “Mark”."

    I check the plot and script that gets sent to me from Toei Animation. I also do some character designs and touch-ups, as well as altering the names and such."
