Sortrumpon

Sortrumpon is a fictional character from the *Dragon Ball* franchise, created by Akira Toriyama. Introduced in the *Dragon Ball GT* anime series, Sortrumpon is a small, blue, humanoid creature resembling a cross between a frog and a human. He is one of the many minor characters that appear in the series, which expands on the original *Dragon Ball* manga and anime with fantastical elements.

Sortrumpon first appears in the episode titled "The Dragon Ball of Destruction," where he is part of a group of creatures summoned by the villainous Dr. Myuu to retrieve the Dragon Balls. His role is largely comedic, as he often speaks in a high-pitched, exaggerated manner and is easily frightened by larger or more powerful beings. Despite his small size, he plays a minor but memorable part in the story, contributing to the lighthearted tone of *Dragon Ball GT*.

The character’s design is simple, with a round body, large eyes, and a broad smile, giving him a friendly yet somewhat silly appearance. Sortrumpon’s inclusion in the series reflects the anime’s blend of action, humor, and fantasy, offering a contrast to the more serious and heroic characters of the original *Dragon Ball* saga. His brief appearances do not significantly impact the plot but add to the series’ whimsical atmosphere.

Sortrumpon’s name is a playful combination of words, likely inspired by the character’s frog-like features and the series’ tendency to create whimsical, nonsensical names for minor characters. While he does not have a substantial backstory or development, his presence remains a fun detail for fans of the franchise.
