Marron

Marron (マーロン) is the human daughter of Kuririn, and Android 18. She makes her debut in the 205th episode of Dragon Ball Z.

Background
Marron is the daughter of Kuririn, and Android 18. She is not identified by her actual name at all until the very final manga installments, when a lot of time has passed since then, and she has gotten much older. However, in the anime, she is referred by her name numerous times throughout the Buu saga. Like her father Kuririn, she was named after chestnuts; as Marron is a French word for chestnuts. She was born three years before the Majin Buu Saga and four years after the events of the Cell Games in Dragon Ball Z.

Personality
Marron mostly cheers on for her mom at the 25th World Martial Arts Tournament, and proves to be one of the few people who can make Android 18 happily smile in person. Their heartwarming relationship lasts through Dragon Ball GT, when Marron is much older. Marron has a good friendship with the other children of the Z Fighters; looking up to Trunks and Son Goten as older brothers, and spending time with Bra and Pan. Marron may seem shallow to some, as she usually finds herself longing after the finer things in life like brand new designer clothes, similar to how her mother is.

However, when a surprise attack finds her mother and father fighting for their very lives, Marron realizes that nothing is as important as family. In Dragon Ball Super, she serves as motivation for her parents, especially her father when he decides to come out of retirement. She also seems to have an admiration for her parent's extraordinary abilities, even being hinted at by 18 to possessing something similar.

Appearance
As a baby and little girl, she resembles her father: she has his eye shape and lack of a nose. Her hair is blonde like her mother. In Dragon Ball Super, Marron's appearance remains largely the same but her hairstyle was changed from pigtails to a mushroom style haircut.

However, she does indeed have a nose. Though it is small, and as she grows older Marron begins to look more like her mother.

Abilities
Unlike most the other Z Fighters' children, Marron was never trained by her mother or father, which means that she has never shown any special abilities or martial arts skills of her own. It is unknown if she has even learned how to fly or not. In Dragon Ball GT, when 18 suggests flying, Marron responds "But I hate flying". This may be that one of her parents carries her though, rather than her having the ability herself. In the Japanese version, she just responds "That will be scary".

The World Tournament arc
Marron's first appearance in the series is when Son Gohan arrives to tell Krillin, Android 18, and Master Roshi about the upcoming 25th World Martial Arts Tournament. She is 3 years old at that time. At the 25th World Martial Arts Tournament, Marron cheers on both of her parents as they fight in their matches.

Piccolo destroyed the door but Super Buu found a way out and turned everyone including Marron into candy and ate them. Dende was the only one to escape, but only because of Mr. Popo, who launched him out of the lookout as a last minute act to keep Dende alive so the Dragon Balls could be used to revive the people Majin Buu killed.

Kid Buu & Uub arc
Later during the battle, Marron, along with the rest of Earth is wished back to life. Each individual helped, thinking that they were giving their energy to their hero Mr. Satan, this allowed Goku to collect enough energy for his Super Spirit Bomb, which ultimately killed Kid Buu. Marron is later seen at a BBQ at Bulma's house.

Later on, she and her mother were at Kuririn's work station where Marron was drawing and 18 decided to shop for dinner when they realize that Frieza is blowing up the Earth and were killed until Whis undid the event with his Temporal Do-Over so that Goku can kill Frieza once more.

She observes Krillin's sparring match with Gohan, cheering him on, which distracts Gohan enough for Krillin to begin attacking him. When her mother expresses her concerns about Krillin sparring with Goku, Marron asks if he is okay and if he will lose. 18 quickly reassures her, saying that her father will never lose.

Three hours before the Tournament of Power begins, Maron arrives at Capsule Corp with her parents and asks Trunks to let her see his newborn sister, Bulla.

Marron later accompanies her mother and father along with Goten and Trunks to the island preserve where her uncle Android 17 works to pick 17 up for the tournament and to take the boys to the island to protect it while he was away at the tournament as Goku had promised 17 they would to convince him to enter the Tournament of Power.

However her mother and uncle greet each other coldly, while Krillin attempts friendly conversation, but 18 tells him not too. 17 however kindly greets Marron, but mispronounces her name as "Maron" causing 18 to threaten her brother. Surprisingly Marron asks to stay on the island with Goten and Trunks, though Krillin is reluctant to leave Marron on the island as she is not strong like Goten and Trunks, but 18 points out to Krillin that Marron is tougher than he thinks. As her parents and uncle leave for the tournament, a pair of poachers watch from inside a submarine and think it's safe but one of the poachers sense that the kids are not ordinary kids.

At the end of the saga, Marron, Goten, and Trunks are shown standing over a pile of beaten up and tied up poachers.

Android 17 quickly dispenses of Kuririn. After beating up 17, 18 tells Marron to run. 17 then tries to kill Marron, but her mother stops him.
