Dragon Ball has a whole roster of iconic fighters under its belt, and the franchise keeps adding on notches. Over the years, fans have found plenty of characters to pick as their favorite, and most of them have been turned into memes at some point.

Over on Instagram, fans let out a good laugh when Snoop Dogg hit up social media to share a post. The rapper posted a meme involving a caricature version of himself as the one and only Mercenary Tao from Dragon Ball.
And yes, the character’s flying pillar is intact in the meme. It is just a bit – well – higher than usual.

As you can see above, the Instagram meme puts Snoop Dogg’s head on top. The figure is flying fast on Tao’s usual pillar, but the concrete structure has been replaced with a giant joint. Of course, you can imagine all of the hilarious comments this meme has gotten all thanks to its druggy origins, and fans are glad Dragon Ball could be part of it.
Of course, Dragon Ball fans are wondering if Snoop Dogg is a fan of the franchise, and it seems the rapper knows of the anime. In the past, the artist did a Reddit AMA under the name Snoop Lion where he told one fan “Gogeta is a g.” Clearly, the rapper has some interest in the show, but the word is out on whether his favorite villain is actually Tao Pai Pai.
