By my understanding the default race in anime is Japanese, no matter the hair or eye color.

Pretty sure Whis and the angels are white. No one else immediately comes to mind.

Are there any other races represented that you're aware of?

I thought of her, but her twin brother looks very Japanese.

Maybe Bulma's mom? That would make Bulma mixed race.

Tbh I would just say all the brief family is white tbh. I'm not looking at a pic of her dad right now but iirc he looked fairly white.

They look exactly like Dragon Quest characters, which generally have a very European aesthetic.

Popo is white. It's the ultimate irony.

Of the main cast

Bulma is white, the Jaco manga makes a statement about Tights where she's described as European or Western or something like that.

17 wears clothes with Russian words, so him and 18 are probably meant to be Slavic.

Tien and Chiaotzu are Chinese.

I'd say the majority are supposed to be Japanese.

The only black character in Dragon Ball that's actually notable is General Black.

The American Southwest is pretty much the only match for DB's overall look, give or take dinosaurs.
