Aliases & name spellings
Overview
Formerly an angel candidate (mentioned, ep 0009) who “once showed” Vegito the Pyramid of Power (ep 0028 00:26:06); his fighting stance is shared by Whis and Z (ep 0061). Now Whis’s successor as angel of Universe 7, “in his full angel attire”, attending and training Broly (ep 0065 00:06:07–00:06:32, 00:41:27). He calls himself the teacher who “finally taught you to enter your mastered ultra instinct at will” (ep 0065 00:44:43–00:44:54), and fuses with Broly into Legendary Angel Broly (ep 0065 00:48:31–00:49:19). Absorbed with Broly by Vegito (ep 0068 00:39:05), he lives on as a voice inside Broly, coaching him after Broly is freed (ep 0077 00:24:41–00:27:22; ep 0081 00:29:08–00:29:17); that is the last time he is heard.
