Yamucha (ヤムチャ Yamucha?, Yamcha in most English adaptations) is a fictional character from the Dragon Ball universe created by Akira Toriyama as a main figure for the media franchise, which consists of a series of manga, anime, soundtracks, movies, television specials, video games, and other collectibles. He is introduced as a thief and started out as an antagonist of Son Goku but quickly reformed and became an ally and Z Fighter. His constant companion is Pu'ar. His seiyū is Tōru Furuya.[1] In the English dub, he is voiced by Ted Cole and later Christopher Sabat.[2] His name is a play on "Yum cha" (literally "drinking tea"), referring to a gathering to drink tea and eat dim sum.[3][4][5]
