“ Before any creation must come destruction! „
~ Beerus

Lord Beerus is an anti-villain in the Dragon Ball anime/manga series.

Background[]

Considered to be one of the most feared gods by Kais, Supreme Kais, and even Shenron, Beeurs is given the mission to make sure balance is maintained in the universe. Beerus often slumbered for many years, spending the couple years he'd stay awake destroying planets so new ones could be created. However, Beerus finds destroying planets uninteresting and boring. Beerus was also the one who sealed Old Kai inside the Z Sword, and he's the reason why King Kai's planet is so small. After hearing a prophecy that, in thirty-nine years, Beerus would finally face an opponent that would excite him, he went to sleep for thirty-nine years. When Beerus and his master, Whis, arrived on Earth, they asked for the Super Saiyan God to come out. However, things keep angering him on the planet, and he threatens to blow it up. Finally, Goku asked Shenron how to find the Super Saiyan God. After managing to unlock the Super Saiyan God form, Goku finally gave Beerus the fight he came for. Since then, Goku and Vegeta have been training with Whis, on the condition that they keep bringing food from Earth for Beerus to taste.

Powers & Abilities[]

  • Unique Supernatural Physiology:
    • Possession Immunity & Mimicry: As a god, Beerus is immune to the effects of Demigra's Dark Magic, though it is shown that he is also able to mimic the technique's visual effects (glowing red eyes and aura) in order to give the appearance that he is under its control, allowing him to deceive the technique's user.
    • Poison Immunity: Shown only in the Dragon Ball Super manga's first chapter, Beerus is shown to have immunity to poisons. However in Xenoverse 2 he is shown to be susceptible to being poisoned by certain attacks.
    • Normal Ki Immunity: In Battle of Gods, Beerus claims that normal ki has absolutely no effect on a deity like himself.
    • Dark Magic Immunity: Beerus is immune to dark magic possession by characters such as Demigara, who is able to posses Mira, Cell, Majin Buu, and many others.
    • Strong Digestive System: Thanks to his physiology, Beerus is capable of consuming even Chronoa's horrible cooking without becoming debilitated afterwards. Shown in Xenoverse 2 when Beerus ate some of Chronoa's Pudding which she tried to use to calm Beerus after the Future Warrior, Masked Saiyan, and Mira interrupted his fight with Goku. Beerus was only extremely displeased by its foul taste and could continue to fight, while Goku was put out of commission after consuming some. However, he was not able to tolerate the taste of wasabi, and he overreacted, requiring Whis to stop him and knock him out for a period of time, showing that his digestive tolerance has a limit. Also, despite initially being overjoyed with the chocolate-colored orb that the Reality Machine #2 created shortly after Goku and Arale fought, his stomach convulsed afterwards, showing again that his digestive tolerance has a limit.
    • Enhanced Hearing: Thanks to his long ears, Beerus is able to overhear people even if they are far away from him and whispering. In Battle of Gods, it allows Beerus to overhear Yamcha and Oolong's plan on how Oolong will beat Beerus at Rock-Paper-Scissors, allowing Beerus to beat Oolong at the game, which Beerus points out after winning against Oolong.
    • Powerful Lungs: Thanks to his physiology, Beerus possesses powerful lungs, being even able to breathe in the stratosphere while fighting Super Saiyan God Goku.

    • Longevity: Beerus possess extreme longevity, being, at the time of his encounter with Goku, over 200 million years old. In Xenoverse 2, Beerus even asserts to the Majin Future Warrior that he is older than the original Majin though it is unclear if he is under the impression Majin Buu was created by Bibidi 5 Million years ago or if he is aware Buu has existed since Time Immemorial.

    • Energy Nullification: Beerus is able to void out energy and energy-using attacks by cancelling out their effects and rendering them harmless. Beerus used this ability during his fight with Goku, in which he negated a burst of energy created from a clash between the tremendous ki output of Goku and his own, which possessed enough energy to destroy the entire universe.
    • Attack Altercation and Redirection: A technique where the user uses their ki to catch an opponent's attack, then alters it and fires it again as their own attack.

In Dragon Ball Super, Beerus' sneezes a Cataclysmic Orb that destroys a nearby planet.
    • Power Suppression Wave Immunity & Sensing: As a god, Beerus is immune to having his power sealed by the waves produced by the power suppression wave machine invented by Dr. Gero and activated by Android 21 in FighterZ. He however can also sense the waves despite them having no effect on him.

  • Master Martial Artist:
    • Pressure Point Attack: Beerus uses Pressure Point Attacks to render his opponents unconscious. He uses this on Super Saiyan 3 Goku during their confrontation of King Kai's planet, using chopsticks on Piccolo, and later on Vegeta.
    • Autonomous Ultra Instinct: While training Goku and Vegeta, Whis has stated that Beerus has been learning how to automatically react to any threat without the need to acknowledge it and defend himself. This is the working mechanism of Ultra Instinct. However, Whis has stated that Beerus hasn’t fully mastered the technique. This is shown in the Dragon Ball Super manga when Beerus was in a battle royale with the other Gods of Destruction. Ultra Instinct is similar to the real life martial art concept known as Mushin, or Empty Mind. Mushin is a mental state that can be reached by Zen and Daoist meditators as well as highly trained martial artists during combat. Essentially, the user experiences a moment in which their body reacts without the need of any specific intentions or plans in mind, refined only to their instincts and intuition up to the point where they can respond to any threat without the need for thought. Hence Mushin’s full term being Mushin No Shin, or Mind Without Mind. In Dragon Ball, Ultra Instinct is no different than Mushin No Shin but is highly referred to as a very rare and highly advanced mental state that even the gods have difficulty obtaining. As stated earlier, users with this mental state can automatically react to any threat without the need to acknowledge it and defend themselves. Their bodies can also move and adapt on their own while in battle, allowing users to attack and defend simultaneously without thinking. There’s an offensive and defensive variant of Ultra Instinct. To truly master Ultra Instinct, both variants must be obtained and learned. While the defensive variant (dodging and moving) is easy to master, the offensive variant (attack without thinking) is much more difficult due to fighters being inclined to think about their attacks before making them, resulting in the fighters being slowed down and their attacks weakened when performing the move. Despite being highly regarded as a divine mental state, Ultra Instinct is achieved by mortals with Son Goku being the first mortal to enter this state as well as obtain the mastered version. However, mortals do receive a high drawback when it comes to obtaining Ultra Instinct. They can only sustain the sheer power of the ability for a short amount of time before their body breaks down from being pushed far beyond its limits, including a risk of death. However, deities such as Gods of Destruction and their angels receive no such drawback. Overall, while Beerus hasn’t mastered Ultra Instinct, he’s still capable of utilizing some of its properties. He has used it to dodge attacks from the likes of even other Gods of Destruction, but as Whis has stated, he still has more to learn.
  • Power of Destruction:
    • Hakai: As a God of Destruction, Beerus has direct access to Energy of Destruction, which is the power to... destroy (duh) given shape. With it, Beerus can literally “erase” anything from existence. The people affected by this do not go to hell or heaven or any of that, they simply cease to exist entirely. It works on pretty much everything, whether it be living beings, entire cities, to dissipate energy attacks, turn objects into dust, or even non-corporeal beings like ghosts. If destroying your body and soul wasn’t enough, as it turns out the Hakai will just erase you out of the timestream as well, effectively removing you from all possible timelines unless you possess special resistances (Like Goku Black’s time ring). If desired this energy can take the form of spheres which the user can create and manipulate at will, these destroy anything they come in contact with. Some users have even used it to surround themselves with it, kinda like a barrier that will erase anything that touches it. Although Beerus hasn’t displayed some of these abilities it’s very likely that he’s well acquainted with them due to his experience and power, he has even dissipated such attacks before. The only thing that the Energy of Destruction doesn’t seem to work on are immortals (he even states this himself in the manga), though this is a separate continuity, so take it with a grain of salt. Also, if the opponent is strong enough, they can survive or outright nullify the effects of the Hakai, even being able to control it and redirect it like Golden Frieza did once.
      • Energy of Destruction: The Power of Destruction manifested as energy.

Alternate Forms[]

Fury[]

A state where Beerus powers up in a rage, becoming surrounded by his Energy of Destruction at all times. In the film, Beerus displays this power due to anger at Buu eating all the pudding, in the anime he uses it when fighting Super Saiyan God Goku in the stratosphere, while in the manga he only uses it briefly in response to getting hit by Perfected Super Saiyan Blue Vegeta. This state is playable in Dragon Ball Heroes, introduced in the third mission of the God Mission series (GDM3). In World Mission, it appears as one of Beerus' playable forms under the name of Fury. The form is playable via Beerus' SH7-BCP15 card and he can transform into it via his SH2-CCP3 card. This form also appears as Beerus' power up in Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot where Beerus' pupils and irises vanish when he takes the form.

Fun Facts[]

  • Beerus was first referenced in the manga chapter "The Zeta Sword" and the episode "Out From the Broken Sword".
  • In accordance to the original concept for this character, his name in Japanese, Birusu, is a pun on "virus". However, the series' original author, Akira Toriyama, thought his name is a pun on the alcoholic beverage, "beer". The pun continues with Whis and the Universe 6 God of Destruction and Attendant.
  • Beerus' physical design also takes some inspiration from Ancient Egyptian deities, notably Seth and Sekhmet. Seth is a humanoid with a jackal-like head who is the god of desert, storms, darkness, evil, strength, winds, war, conflict and chaos in ancient Egyptian culture. Sekhmet is a humanoid with a lioness head who is the Egyptian Goddess of fire, vengeance, healing medicine, and she carried out divine punishment, such as destroying things, and sending out plagues. In addition to sharing the same position as Sekhmet, Beerus is a felid like her.
  • Beerus claimed he wiped the dinosaurs out on Earth, but in the Dragon Ball universe, dinosaurs still thrive on planet Earth.
