Aliases & name spellings

• Hades; “the young elder god” (ep 0186 00:10:55–00:13:22; see names); “Elder God Hades. A god usually linked to the underworld” (narration, ep 0225 00:36:31–00:36:48).

Overview

The youngest-seeming of the Elder Gods: studious, talks in odds and data, and doubts any of them can beat Zeus (ep 0186 00:13:03–00:13:22; ep 0188 00:09:39–00:09:47). In the Tournament of Elders his first team is three ordinary-looking men, all lost to Ultra Vegito, so he fills his slots with fighters who are secretly the servants of the princes of hell: Hades is in league with them and bows to Demigra, whom he passes off as “Vegeta” (ep 0214 00:11:14–00:11:35; ep 0225 00:34:12–00:36:48; ep 0226 00:01:49–00:02:12; ep 0230 00:15:27–00:15:39). He beats Ares in Round 7 but is eliminated in Round 10 (ep 0227 00:11:49–00:12:10; ep 0239 00:20:25–00:20:35).

As of his last mention (ep 0256): eliminated, and called Demigra’s “elder god pawn” by a prince of hell (ep 0256 00:26:15–00:26:33).

Affiliations & relationships

• Elder Gods: one of the eight (ep 0206 00:24:08–00:24:19); joins Poseidon and Castiel to face Akobel (ep 0186 00:10:55–00:13:22).
• Demigra and the princes of hell: Hades shows Demigra the stage, nearly calling him by his name before correcting himself to “Vegeta” (ep 0226 00:01:49–00:02:12); bows under Demigra’s foot (ep 0230 00:15:27–00:15:39); warns him not to show too much or Zeus will work it out (ep 0236 00:36:09–00:36:21); a prince calls Hades Demigra’s pawn (ep 0256 00:26:15–00:26:33). See hades-princes.
• Akobel: Hades saw through his tournament idea as a decoy (ep 0186 00:11:37–00:12:03).
• Ultra Vegito: “that guy from Hera’s multiverse”, the reason it all began, who absorbs every slain fighter’s power and wiped out Hades’s team (ep 0215 00:01:37–00:02:31; ep 0225 00:34:12–00:34:44).
• Chronoa: Round 4 is Hades against Chronoa (ep 0213 00:32:20–00:32:28); she says he couldn’t have made his new fighters himself (ep 0226 00:19:00–00:19:09).
• Ares: Hades beats him in Round 7 (ep 0227 00:11:49–00:12:10).

• Eager to please — “like an excitable puppy” with Demigra (ep 0226 00:01:49–00:02:12).
