Dragon Ball Launches New Funko with Funimation 2021 Exclusive The vast majority of brawlers in the Dragon Ball franchise have been brought to life using the popular figurines known as Funko Pops, with more hitting the shelves as time marches on, and Funimation, the company partly responsible for the Shonen franchise's elevation throughout the years has revealed a brand new exclusive figure. The figure itself, marking the first time that the smart-mouthed feline Karin is hitting the Funko scene, is currently available on Funimation's website, giving fans the opportunity to add one of the oldest characters of the anime to Karin was originally instrumental in the development of Goku as a fighter, being introduced as an eight hundred-year-old martial artist who lived atop a tower that was nearly impossible to scale. Following his training with Karin, Goku would then go on to meet Kami, the "God of Earth" who also happened to be the good side of the Demon King Piccolo, who would eventually merge with his other half during the Cell Saga. Of course, as power levels increased, Karin's effectiveness as a trainer decreased, and he is perhaps most well known now for being the Z Fighters' dealer when it comes to Senzu Beans, the food that can heal any wound and bring back any lost stamina caused by a battle.
