Unlike any others who serve the galactic empire, they are merely freelancers greatly favored by the tyrant rather than forcefully subdued slaves or servants. The Ginyu Force is a team of super-elite and powerful warriors. Former member Bonyu also follows this tradition as Bonyu is derived from "breast milk" (母乳) which is also a double pun as it is also a pun referencing Bonyu's gender and status as the only named female member.īonyu was the first member recruited by Captain Ginyu to the Ginyu Force and was tasked with reconnaissance duties, followed by Jeice (who eventually became sub-captain), then Recoome, then Burter and finally Guldo. The Ginyu Force members follow the tradition of Dragon Ball characters being named for puns in this case, all manner of dairy products: Guldo is derived from "yogurt", Recoome from "creme", Burter from "butter", Jeice from "cheese", and Ginyu is derived from the Japanese word for "milk" (牛乳, gyūnyū). This resemblance to Super Sentai may be due to Toriyama's son being interested in Super Sentai shows as stated by Toriyama in an interview. Some of the recent references to the Ginyu Force's stylistic forms of poses and colorful display comes from Super Sentai series. However, because Akira Toriyama's works usually feature parody, the stances used by the Ginyu Force may be a parody of the stances seen in Super Sentai. The Ginyu Force has some resemblances and references to Super Sentai teams (and by extension, Power Rangers teams): five color-coded warriors, tendencies to pose during battle, roll calls and supernatural powers.
