“ | It does, sir. | „ |
~ Yamu's last words before getting killed by Babidi. |
Yamu is one of Babidi's henchmen. He is Spopovich's partner, and is much smaller than him, and much more intelligent as well as less sadistic. He is one of the two main antagonists (the other being Spopovich) of the World Tournament Saga and a minor antagonist in the Babidi Saga.
He was voiced by Naoki Tatsuta in DBZ, and Yasuhiro Takato in DBZ Kai in Japanese and Brian Drummond in Ocean Dub, and John Burgmeier in Funimation Dub in English.
Appearance
Yamu is a smaller version of Spopovich. He's bald, muscular, and wears black pants. Like Spopovich, Yamu has a mark of a dark letter "M" on his forehead.
History
Past
Though it was never mentioned, it is likely that Yamu easily lost during one of the Worlds Martial Arts Tournament and was granted by Babidi the powers of Majin.
25th World Martial Arts Tournament
Yamu and Spopovich entered the 25th World Martial Arts Tournament to find energy to give to Majin Buu. When Spopovich was beating up Videl, Yamu stopped him from killing Videl, as gathering energy was more important than fighting in the tournament.
Stealing Gohan's Power
When Gohan powered up to Super Saiyan 2, Yamu used an energy absorbing device to drain Gohan's energy. He and Spopovich left to take the energy to Babidi.
Yamu's Death
After Babidi killed Spopovich, Yamu tried to escape, but Pui Pui destroyed him with an energy wave.
Personality
Yamu is far more intelligent than Spopovich. He has also shown some sense of honor when he told Spopovich not to kill Videl and that he already won the match. He even gave Videl a look of pity after seen how badly his partner beat her. However, Yamu is also a cheater. When Spopovich and Gohan were fighting each other, Yamu steps in, joins Spopovich, and drains Gohan's power when he was in his Super Saiyan 2 form. While doing so, he shows as much delight as his partner.
Powers
Like nearly every villain in the Dragon Ball Series, Yamu can fly, generate Ki energy attacks, and has superhuman strength. He also wields a weapon that drains opponent's Power Level called the Energy Absorber. That said, since Babidi was the one who gave it to him, it's not a regular part of Yamu's arsenal.
