Summary[]
Muten Rōshi (武天老師, Muten Rōshi, lit. "Old Heavenly Martial Arts Master"), also known as the Turtle Hermit (亀仙人, Kame Sen'nin), or simply Turtle (亀, Kame) in his youth, and the God of Martial Arts (武道の神様, Budō no Kami-sama), is a perverted hermit and a master of martial arts. He lives on his own isolated island called Kame House, where he may be willing to train students who travel to his doorstep. He is also the originator of the Kamehameha.
Despite his lecherous tendencies and his old age, Roshi is an extremely respected and capable warrior, serving as the master of Son Gohan, Gyumao, Son Goku, Krillin, and Yamcha. His drive to push his students to new heights and support them on their martial arts journeys makes him one of the most notable supporting characters in the series.
