Description

Personality

Garlic Jr. is a resentful and vengeful character driven by his father's past defeat at the hands of Kami. His acquisition of immortality fuels an extreme arrogance and belief in his invincibility. He emulates his father's ambition to conquer Earth and enslave humanity, demonstrating a loyalty to his father's legacy while also harboring a significant rage and fear towards Gohan, whom he sees as a major threat. His inability to learn from his mistakes and repeated failures highlight a stubborn and inflexible personality. Despite his villainous nature, Garlic Jr. displays a certain level of strategic thinking, albeit often undermined by his impulsive actions and overconfidence. His interactions with his henchmen, the Spice Boys, reveal a degree of leadership, though he often leaves the dirty work to them. His use of baseball terminology in the English dub adds a layer of unexpected quirkiness to his otherwise menacing persona.

Abilities

Garlic Jr. possesses a range of abilities stemming from his demonic nature and amplified by the Makyo Star. His core abilities include flight, ki blasts (including variations like Continuous Energy Bullets and Death Impact), and the ability to magically materialize objects. His most notable power is his immortality, granting him regeneration from even grievous wounds. He also utilizes the Sealed Light Beam to shrink and paralyze opponents and the Dead Zone technique to trap enemies in a void. In his transformed "Super Garlic Jr." state, his strength and power significantly increase, though his speed decreases. He also employs the Black Water Mist to turn his enemies into mindless vampire-like slaves. In the *Dragon Ball Heroes* game, he gains a "King of Destruction" form with enhanced power and an electric aura.
