Arabian Nights. For the training scenes, Jackie Chan's Drunken Master served as a reference. The author said that Muscle Tower in the Red Ribbon Army storyline was inspired by the beat 'em up video game Spartan X (called Kung-Fu Master in the West), in which enemies appear very fast as the player ascends a tower (the game was in turn inspired by Jackie Chan's Wheels on Meals and Bruce Lee's Game of Death), and that the fights were similar to the ones in the Tenkaichi Budōkai, just not in a tournament setting.

Toriyama proceeded to create names for all the techniques, except for the series' signature which his wife came up with when he was indecisive about what it should be called.
