Giru (ギル, Giru), originally known as T2006, is a Machine Mutant that accompanies Goku, Pan and Trunks on their quest to find the Black Star Dragon Balls. He is best friends with Pan; however, he is frequently the recipient of a lot of abuse (both verbal and physical) at the hands of Pan, which makes him somewhat fearful of her.

[edit] Black Star Dragon Ball Saga
Main article: Black Star Dragon Ball Saga The three first met him on a Imecka, while he was on the brink of death.

Upon arriving on the Planet M2, he betrays them but is actually pretending as ordered by Trunks.
Giru was initially programmed to find and lure the Saiyans to the planet in order to use their DNA but due to a memory failure, he forgot the entire thing until the team nears Planet M2. He tells Trunks the truth of his mission and together, they decide to make the 'inhabitants' of the planet believe that Giru is acting according to their programming, by giving them data to capture Goku, Pan and Trunks.
After he sets the trio free, they find Dr. Myu's evil creation 'Baby' and seemingly destroy him. Then Trunks and Goku finish off General Rilldo, an unstoppable mutant who can control metal, and leave the planet for good.
