The Weekly ☆ Character Showcase is an article series where we introduce one character from the Dragon Ball universe each week. This time we're running an analysis on Android 15 from the "Dragon Ball Z: Super Android 13!" movie!
After the death of Dr. Gero, his vengeful endeavors against Goku were taken up by his supercomputer, which put the finishing touches on a new line of Android menaces with even more hate for the Saiyan hero hardcoded into their systems!
One such creation was Android 15, who's unique design includes an oversized hat and stylish sunglasses.
His databanks are loaded up with Goku's data, meaning he can calculate and predict all of his moves with deadly precision.
Together with his hulking counterpart, Android 14, he attacked Goku and his friends while they were having lunch at a department store.
The two Androids were certainly on the same wavelength judging by their extreme synergy in battle, which they used to devastating effect against Goku and Trunks.
Vegeta showed up to lend a hand and ended up in a one-on-one duel against Android 15, who even alone was powerful enough to give the Saiyan prince a run for his Zeni. However, 15 was ultimately destroyed when Vegeta turned Super Saiyan and delivered the final blow.
Turned to scrap metal by Vegeta, Android 15's battle data and reactor were then absorbed by the movie's eponymous antagonist, Android 13.

Analysis
Thanks to his direct link with Dr. Gero's supercomputer, Android 15 is able to analyze Goku and the others' battle data in real time. He used this capability to predict his opponents' next moves and keep them on the back foot in their fight.
Barrier
Android 15 is able to produce a defensive barrier that he used to nullify attacks from Trunks.
If you want to check out 15's hardware, just lift up his hat!
Android 15's hat was blown off by the torrent of Ki released when Vegeta transformed into a Super Saiyan during their battle, exposing a clear dome full of mechanical and electronic parts!
→Preview: Next week's character will be Android 15's partner-in-programming from the movie!
