Background

Janemba is the main antagonist in Dragon Ball Z Shin Budokai, and he appears in several other Dragon Ball media. He is a powerful demon and the living definition of evil.

This dropdown contains the synopsis of Janemba’s story. Read at your own risk as you may be spoiled otherwise!
Janemba appears as the primary antagonist of Dragon Ball Z: Shin Budokai. Being formed by the evil energy clumping together in Hell, Janemba begins interfering with multiple dimensions and timelines in an attempt to throw the universe into chaos. Throughout the game, he does things like spread evil energy across Earth, revives many empowered dead villains, and attempt to turn Vegeta into another body for himself. At the end of the game, he faces off against Kid Buu (who challenges him in Hell after escaping the area that Supreme Kai imprisoned him in thanks to Janemba's havoc) and is eventually finally defeated at the hands of Super Gogeta once more.

Powers and Abilities

Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Weapon Mastery (Is a skilled user of his blade), Acrobatics, Flight, Immortality (Type 5; Due to the King Enma being sealed, the dead were allowed to be reborn, essentially making it where they can't die. Type 8; Janemba is formed from the evil energy, and will continously be reborn by it. The true Janemba is the barrier between Hell and the universe), Ki Manipulation (All beings in dragon ball have ki, the very life force energy of all characters, ki allows a fighter to extend beyond their bodies limits, allowing them to even block attacks that would otherwise kill them from raising their guard, higher level users can lower their own durability to allow people far below them to fatally wound them), Mind Manipulation (Characters can link their ki together and train within each other’s mind enacting in image training), Power Absorption & Transferal (Ki users can transfer their ki to others and absorb the ki given to them from others), Non-Physical Interaction (Those with Ki were able to harm the Ghost Warriors), Healing (Ki is shown to have healing properties), Fusionism (With the fusion dance, Bardock is able to fuse with another to amplify his strength to unimaginable levels), Aura (Has an aura of ki surrounding him whenever he transforms) Immortality Negation (Type 7; Gotenks can destroy the Dictator’s undead army with their Ki; others with Ki should thus be able to do the same), Unconventional Dream Manipulation (Characters in Shin Budokai can create physical bodies in alternate timelines through dreaming), Power Mimicry & Energy Manipulation (Janemba is able to shoot an energy blast that forms a copy of the person its fighting. Noted to make copies of all the Z-Fighters), Space-Time Manipulation (Characters can blast space-time distortions to close them), Forcefield Creation (Janemba is the barrier. Ki users are capable of creating energy barriers), Curtain Fire & Light Manipulation (With Lightning Shower Rain, Super Janemba traces his finger in the air and creates a streak of green energy light that breaks into sharp, glass-like needles then, he swings his arm back and fires the energy needles at his opponent, inflicting a high amount of damage)

All previous powers and abilities to a much greater extent, Enhanced Senses Negation (The evil energy makes it difficult to sense presences), Life Manipulation (The evil energy created Janemba), Power Nullification (The evil energy has repeatedly nullified the Z-Fighter's abilities to sense one's ki or telepathically talk with one another through setting up barriers between worlds), Sealing (One that gets caught in the barrier gets sealed within it), Power Bestowal (The evil energy amplifies villains to be far stronger then they were prior), Corruption & Hell Manipulation (Anyone that takes in the evil energy will become evil themselves, with even good people be affected), Omnipresence (The evil energy is present in multiple timelines and places), Space-Time Manipulation (The evil energy causes distortions in space and time, using these distortions to bring Cell back]), Portal Creation (The evil energy created portals across different timelines), Spatial Manipulation (The evil energy has been twisting space around), Power Mimicry (The evil energy creates fake copies of people)


Standard Equipment

  • Dimension Sword: An Ogre's club transformed into Janemba's personal sword via Matter Manipulation.

Notable Techniques

  • Flight: The ability to fly through magical prowess.
  • Ki Blast: Janemba is capable of firing destructive ki blasts or projectiles from either his hands or mouth.
  • Instant Transmission: Janemba teleports behind the opponent by locking onto their energy signature.
  • Cloning: Janemba is able to create small copies of himself and others, such as when he creates a clone of Goku to counter the latter's Kamehameha. Super Janemba also displays the ability to create clones of other people in the story of Shin Budokai, such as when he creates a perfect copy of Goku out of magic and later a clone of Majin Vegeta and when he creates clone of himself in the form of a sentient wall which surrounds King Yemma's castle.
  • Dimension Sword Attack: This technique is used in his final form when he stabs at his opponent through portals using his sword in similar manner to Illusion Smash.
  • Evil Energy: Janemba is born from and maintained by evil energy. Evil energy appears as purple clouds. When enough evil energy clumps together, or takes over a person, it takes on a physical body, becoming Janemba. As shown in the Shin Budokai games, if Janemba's physical body is destroyed, he will revert to his evil energy state until evil energy clumps together or a new host is found. Evil energy appears in places and planes of existence where Janemba goes, but if Janemba's physical form is destroyed by good energy, then all the released evil energy on that plane of existence will be destroyed.

Other

Standard Tactics: Janemba uses the help of the evil energy to either create clones, attack people with his sword, or use ki attacks.

Weaknesses: If Janemba uses up too much of his evil energy to absorb someone and they remove him he greatly weakens. Speaking ill of Janemba creates a reaction that weakens Janemba. Extinguishing all evil energy will permanently kill him.

Note: Dragon Ball Z Shin Budokai's english script is heavily mistranslated with characters going off on tangents that make no sense, replying to different conversations, many typos, and writing errors. Such as a conversation between Vegeta and Android 18 where they went from talking about continuing the fight to Vegeta out of nowhere asking Android 18 to take Trunks and them away from the camp. Due to this, take a lot of the statistics and justifications with a grain of salt as there is no official updated translation that fixes these errors.
