'''Master Roshi''', known in Japan as {{nihongo|'''Kame Sennin'''|亀仙人||lit. "Turtle Sage"}}<ref name=Advice>{{Cite web|url=https://comicbook.com/anime/news/dragon-ball-super-master-roshi-surprising-advice-to-krillin-manga-56/|title=Dragon Ball Super Reveals Roshi's Surprising Advice to Krillin|date=24 January 2020 }}</ref> as well as {{nihongo|'''Muten Rōshi'''|武天老師||lit. "Old Master of Martial Arts"}}, is a fictional character in the Japanese [[manga]] series ''[[Dragon Ball (manga)|Dragon Ball]]'' and its [[anime]] adaptations created by [[Akira Toriyama]].

Within the series, he is an elderly [[martial arts]] master, born on March 20, who is the creator of the {{nihongo|''Kamehameha''|カメハメ波}} technique. His students include [[List of Dragon Ball characters#Grandpa Gohan|Grandpa Son Gohan]], [[List of Dragon Ball characters#Ox-King|The Ox-King]], [[Son Goku (Dragon Ball)|Son Goku]], [[Krillin]] and [[Yamcha]]. He is bald, sports a thick [[van dyke beard]], and wears sunglasses, beach clothes, or martial arts suits. He usually wields a walking stick and, in early appearances, wears a turtle's shell on his back. In spite of his [[Lascivious behavior|lechery]], cantankerousness and occasional whimsy or foolishness, he is often depicted as wise and perceptive. While a popular character with ''Dragon Ball'' fans, the depiction of some of his antics has been met with criticism or deemed highly controversial.
