Pan

Pan is a major character from the Dragon Ball franchise.
She is the only child of Human/Saiyan hybrid Son Gohan and the Human woman Videl, making her a quarter-blood Saiyan hybrid. Much like her grandfather Son Goku (and unlike her father and uncle Son Goten) Pan had a passion for the martial arts that was typical of a Saiyan. Even at a young age, Pan exhibited incredible potential that surpassed even that of her father's.
She regards the family of Bulma and Vegeta as a family as well and may sport a crush on Trunks. Her name derives from two traditions: Goku's family naming system, based on foods, and Videl's, based on mythological and religious tricksters. Like with Goten, Trunks and Bulla, it is unknown if she was born with a tail.
While her power level is formidable and should never be underestimated, she is also never shown to become a Super Saiyan. Akira Toriyama has said he struggled with what she would look like in that form, while fan speculation has placed Gohan's 'Mystic Saiyan' mode, which involved SSJ-like power without the physical transformation, as the cause for this. However, only a brief portion of her life is ever depicted in the series, and since her own descendants had this power, it remains possible she developed it later on.
She is voiced by in DBZ, DBGT and DBS and in DBZ Kai in Japanese, while in the various Funimation english dubs, she is voiced by as a toddler in DBZ, as a toddler in DBZ Kai, in DBGT, and Jeannie Tirado as a baby in DBS and DBZK.

===Powerful Legacy===
Pan, who was conceived by the Saiyan/Human hybrid Son Gohan and his Human wife Videl, hailed from two families made up of legendary fighters. Her father and paternal grandfather Son Goku belonged to the alien warrior race called the Saiyans and had protected Earth many times, and her maternal grandfather Mr. Satan was falsely considered the greatest martial artist in the world. While Videl was pregnant with Pan, the God of Destruction Lord Beerus threatened to destroy Earth.
The Saiyans that lived on Earth wanted to enact a ritual which would transform Goku into a "Super Saiyan God" capable of combating Beerus by passing the power of five Saiyans into another. As there was only four Saiyans available, Videl revealed her pregnancy and offered to partake in the ritual. Like they had hoped, the power of the unborn Pan and the other Saiyans passed into Goku and, although Beerus defeated him, he was able to fight the Destroyer on more equal footing as a Super Saiyan God.
===Resurrection 'F' Saga===
Pan was born in Age 779, a few months after Goku's battle with Lord Beerus, with her mother looking after her while her father is at work. her maternal grandfather often spends time with her and wants her to be his successor, both her father and maternal grandfather want her to be a martial artist.
One day while Mr Satan is visiting Gohan's house to see Pan. When he returns from his science conference, he changes to his Great Saiyaman person and spars with Mr. Satan, while holding Pan. Pan is amused, Chi-Chi scolds them, wanting her granddaughter Pan to grow up "lady-like". Chi-Chi, Bulma and Videl later talk about Pan's upbringing. Videl concludes that Pan should grow up the way she would want to, she doesn't mind Pan becoming a martial artist because Videl states that's how she met Gohan.
She was later babysat by Piccolo as her parents were out, she is amused by him making funny faces and peek-a-boo. He continues to play with her until her parents had returned, and Videl gently holds her.
Pan was seen crying with Videl comforting her, shortly before Frieza uses his Earth Breaker attack to destroy the entire planet, killing Pan and Videl along with most of Earth's inhabitants. Fortunately, Whis uses his Temporal Do-Over technique, allowing Goku to kill the self-proclaimed "Emperor of the Universe" with a God Kamehameha. Afterwards, Gohan returns home and wants to become stronger in order to protect his family. Pan smiles, happy to see her father again.

===Goku Black Saga===
Gohan invites Future Trunks to his house to meet his family. Pan greets Trunks by squirting milk at his face and does the same with Gohan and Mr. Satan, she happily flies around with Gohan (as the Great Saiyaman) playfully chasing behind her. Later on, after Mr. Satan leaves Pan with Future Trunks, the young infant becomes a handful, and playfully trashes the living room, almost pulling on Trunks' sword in a tug-of-war like a manner, until Gohan stops her. While outside, Pan was seen playing in the sand while Gohan and Trunks conversed. Pan and her family bid farewell to Future Trunks.
Pan later fell seriously ill with an incurable illness and Gohan used the Dragon Balls to cure her. She was later kidnapped and had her life threatened by Barry Kahn. She was rescued by her mother and watches as her father fights him. Pan is also present at the Universe 6 vs. Universe 7 baseball game, where she is seen sitting on Videl's lap.
=== End of 'Z' Saga===
An older Pan appears briefly in the last few episodes of Dragon Ball Z. She is only four-years-old at the time. Since ten years have passed since the defeat of Kid Buu, it seems she was born six years after that. She is shown to be utterly devoted to three things: Her grandfather, eating and training, and at this time, she wore a miniature version of Goku's Turtle School Gi. Perhaps as a sign of maturity and perhaps as a sign of surrender to the realities of her Saiyan family, Chi-Chi no longer even tries to restrain her as she did Gohan.
