I believe the regular series only gave us androids 8 and 16-20, though I could be forgetting some from the Dragon Ball era.
Gero himself, without listing every android between 1 and 20 it left Toei with a lot of room to make new characters following that numeric assignment. Since the anime gave us an Android 20, the inventor Dr. And since this film came out during the heart of the Androids/Cell Saga, it’s probably not surprising that the villain is going that route. Well, what’s better than two Super Saiyans? Three, obviously! Even the Japanese title for this film goes right for that little tidbit, while the English version is once again content to just tell us who the villain is going to be. The last film brought in his father, Vegeta, which kind of played up the notion of there being two Super Saiyans. The 7th Dragon Ball Z feature film boasts another famous debut, that of Future Trunks, to the world of DBZ films. Japanese Title: Extreme Battle! The Three Great Super Saiyans
