Icarus is a young purple dragon who is one of Gohan's closest animal friends. He is the only non-supernatural dragon to appear in the series.
[edit] Overview
Icarus and Gohan first meet in movie 3, The Tree of Might, when Gohan saved him from being smashed by a falling tree. Later, when Shenron is summoned to restore the forest back to normal, Icarus is scared and attacks him. He also later calmed Gohan down even after being turned into his Great Ape form by Turles. He is then blasted away by Turles which infuriates Great Ape Gohan.
In the Garlic Jr. Saga, he caught wind of the Black Water Mist's arrival and manages to find a cave and blocks the entrance to save Gohan from the Mist. Icarus saves Maron after she is almost killed by the infected Bulma and Chi-Chi.
He also appears in the final episode of the Trunks Saga, in movie 4, Lord Slug, movie 5, Cooler's Revenge and in movie 6, Return of Cooler. He did not appear again after this, although he is mentioned during the Great Saiyaman Saga when Goten is playing with a dinosaur, and Gohan says that the dinosaur reminds him of Icarus.
[edit] Trivia
- Icarus never appears in the original manga, and its appearances in the anime are all during anime-only sequences.
