Biography

Mark (Japanese: マーク, Hepburn: Māku)

Mr. Satan (Japanese: ミスター・サタン, Hepburn: Misutā Satan)

An arrogant braggart, Mr. Satan challenged Cell to battle during the Cell Games, and was swatted away like a fly. As the battles against Cell escalated, Hercule was vocally critical of the reality of the Z Warriors' power, but showed his kinder core nature when he helped the head of Android 16 communicate with Gohan (by throwing it into range). Mr. Satan claimed credit for the defeat of Cell, and became known as the world's foremost hero as a result.

However, as the years passed, Hercule became increasingly nervous over the prospect of possibly fighting the Z Warriors, as shown by his hair falling out. He retained his title as world champion only through pay-offs (such as those to Android 18) or kindness (such as given by Mister Buu). His daughter, Videl, eventually surpassed him in fighting skill. Despite his self-centered nature, Mr. Satan became friends with Mr. Buu, helping catalyze the split that formed Evil Buu. He also helped save the universe when he psychically asked the people of Earth to donate their energy (to Goku, but they thought he was asking for it himself) for the Spirit Bomb that finally destroyed Buu.

Overview

Personality and attributes

In appearance, Mr. Satan Mr. was a tall man of a rather muscular and hairy physique and tends to adopt an imposing appearance when seen in public. His black curly Afro, mustache, and well-trimmed sideburns are among his most recognizable traits, as well as his cleft chin. Mr. Satan typically is seen in his martial arts uniform or in fitted suits, but has been known to wear more luxurious clothing when resting or making public appearances. His gi is often accented with either a red or white cape depending on which gi he dons, and his notably hairy chest and arms are usually displayed openly.

Although one of the weakest of Earth's champions, Hercule Satan continued to be the world's favorite hero for many more years.
