Summary
Ran Fuan competes in the 21st Martial Arts Tournament, leveraging her appearance as a defenseless woman to her advantage. She employs a tactic of shrieking when an opponent is about to strike, causing them to hesitate, which allows her to counter with a devastating punch or kick. Should this strategy fail, she resorts to stripping naked to shock or embarrass her adversary. She is eventually defeated by Namu, who closes his eyes to attack without looking at her body. In the manga, she appears briefly on an image roster as one of Tambourine’s targets during the King Piccolo Saga, although her ultimate fate remains unknown. Given her absence from subsequent chapters and episodes, it is likely Tambourine was stopped before he could kill her. The American dub excludes the stripping scene, replacing it with a shot of Namu’s failed attack and her twitching foot to indicate she was knocked out, though unedited recaps still show her in her underwear. Her name is a play on Japanese words for lingerie and foundation garments.
