Goku transformation has also been achieved Super Saiyan God bringing Mr. Monkey to a completely different level of power than what fans imagine the strength of humans. Saiyan can reach.
In the style of Toriyama the character names are all based on puns from Japanese, revolving around very everyday things such as vegetables, fruits, cows, milk… mainly food, animals, plants.
Such as family members Frieza has names related to ice and cold things ( Frieza, Cold, Frost …) and people Saiyan are vegetables ( Vegeta, Kakarotto, Nappa, Raditz.. .).
The name Beerus and Whis is also played with words in this way. Initially, it was thought that Beerus and Whis is a pun on virus, but it’s not. In fact, Beerus and Whis Inspired by alcoholic beverages.
While Whis named by the author Akira Toriyama then Beerus again named by the assistant Yusuke Watanabe scriptwriter for The Battle of Gods . Beerus clearly comes from Beer, i.e. beer in English, also name Whis from Whiskey an alcoholic beverage.
During his creative process, Toriyama often write in general terms about how the story will develop and create the characters. It’s up to his team of assistants to fill in the gaps. That’s why most of the characters aren’t Toriyama to name.
