Revision as of 05:17, 6 February 2007
Template:DB Character Tullece (ターレス Tāresu) is a character from the anime series Dragon Ball Z, known in the FUNimation English-dub version as "Turles", and "Tarles" in the Spanish dub. His first appearance was in the third Dragon Ball Z movie, The Tree of Might. His second was in the two-volume VHS OVA released as a "Official Visual Guide" for the Bandai NES game, Plan to Eradicate the Saiyans. Tullece's original seiyu is Masako Nozawa. Chris Patton voiced him in the new American versions The Tree of Might and Budokai Tenkaichi 2.
Tullece's name is, however, a pun on the English word "lettuce." With the name written out as ターレス Tāresu, if one rearranges the first two syllables, it becomes レタース, retāsu. Ignoring the elongated "a" sound, it becomes the accurate Japanese spelling of "lettuce," レタス retasu.
Tullece looks very similar to Goku. The French dub of the film claimed that Tullece was actually Goku's long-lost twin brother. Nothing is actually stated in the movie or official Japanese publications to this extent. In the Dragon Ball Z: Anime Film Comics, it was stated that the reason why Tullece and Goku looked alike is because within the low-rank Saiyans, the facial patterns of each warrior were similar, thus making it easy to mark which Saiyans were low-castes.
DBZ Movie 3: The Tree of Might
The seed of the Shinseiju ("Tree of Godly Might," simply called the "Tree of Might" by FUNimation) has come into possession of the Saiyan Turles. When the tree is planted, it saps the energy of the world in which the tree has taken root. Therefore, he seeks out a planet that he would be able to plant the seed on, so he can eat the Fruit of the Gods, and become exponentially stronger than before. With him, he has gathered a medley of ragtag thugs, all of whom are quite strong (stronger than the average Z-Senshi). Eventually, Tullece grabs a piece of fruit from the tree. This makes his strength dramatically increase. Even with a Kaioken at ten-times its normal strength and a Genki-Dama formed from what little remained of the planet's energy, Goku is unable to topple Tullece. It is only with a newly formed Genki Dama that Goku is able to defeat Tullece.
Tullece also appears in the Plan to Eradicate the Saiyans OVA as a "ghost warrior", but is eventually killed again[1].
Other appearances
He made his first appearance as a playable character in Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 2, featuring a never before seen Oozaru transformation. His Oozaru form in the game is typical of untrained lower-class soldiers, and cannot contol his mind.
Special techniques
Tulluce's unique attacks include shooting multiple blasts from his hand, shooting a flaming ring of ki and creating a ball of energy that replicates the moon. The ball emits Bruits Waves which allow a saiyan to transform into an Oozaru. He avoids this when fighting for some reason. His ring attack is called "Kill Driver" in Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 2.
