The Weekly ☆ Character Showcase is an article series where we introduce one character from the Dragon Ball universe each week. This week, we're taking a look at the adorable Pan from Dragon Ball GT.
Pan is the daughter of Gohan and Videl, and the granddaughter of Goku and Mr. Satan. She's a spirited yet innocent girl who laughs a lot, cries easily, and shows her emotions openly. She takes pride in having inherited her parents' strength and masters the Buku-jutsu (Levitation Technique) and Kikoha (Ki Blast).
Learning of Goku and Trunks' plan to journey out into the universe in search of the Ultimate Dragon Balls, she sneakily boards their spaceship uninvited.
While on the quest for the Ultimate Dragon Balls, Pan meets the Machine Mutant Gill on Planet Imegga. Despite their squabbles, these two develop a close bond.
Pan is mistaken for a queen bee on Planet Monmars and is held captive in their hive.
On Planet Ruudo, Pan is transformed into a doll by the Dolltucky, whose pastime is playing with dolls. After being absorbed by the God of Destruction Luud, Pan launches a well-coordinated attack alongside Goku, chanting, "Pepper Pot! Pickle Pot! Purple Pot!” After this, the two are able to successfully escape.
On Planet Ruudeze, Pan is frustrated with being treated as a burden, so she decides to "run away from home". However, Gill intervenes and comes to her rescue just as she's about to be attacked by a monster.
Pan often finds herself in trouble due to her uncontrollable enthusiasm backfiring. Despite facing several dire situations, she manages to overcome them with her innate strength and with the help of Goku and friends, eventually collecting all seven Ultimate Dragon Balls and returning to Earth.

She's always getting dumped for being too strong?
In the middle of a date, Pan easily stops some bank robbers. But when the boy she's with is shocked by her strength and runs away, she cries out, "It's not... It's not fair!" It seems being too strong has cost her a few dates.
