Karin is a Senbyou (Immortal Cat) who has resided at the summit of Karin Tower for over 800 years. The tower stands directly beneath Kami's Lookout, which sits a few hundred meters higher and is accessible via Son Goku's nyoi-bō. Karin holds the status of a deity just below Kami's rank and plays a significant part in Dragon Ball by training Goku during the Commander Red Saga to overcome Tao Pai Pai. In subsequent parts of the series and in Dragon Ball Z, Karin periodically assists Goku and other characters by cultivating Senzu beans, which grow exclusively on a tree within his tower. He is voiced in the original Japanese version by Ichirō Nagai and later by Naoki Tatsuta.
