Tank Boy, Janemba's host.

An ordinary teenage ogre named Gasu, was working in the afterlife and keeping an eye on the soul cleansing machine used to purify spirits being sent to Hell. Due to an error by Gasu, a machine becomes overloaded. This causes it to explode, and in a chaine reaction, all of the evil from countless generations is released. This evil forms around Gasu, turning him into Janemba. Janemba proceeds to turn the whole other world into his playground which also imprisons King Yemma. This breaks the barrier between the living and the dead, allowing them to come to back to life.

Goku and Pikkon are sent to take care of the problem. They find Janemba and Goku proceeds to fight him. After a brief battle, Janemba is defeated. He then transforms into a new, more demonic form. This new form defeates Goku, but before Janemba can finish him off, Vegeta shows up to save him. The two then run and form the plan to fuse. After a few attempts, they fuse into Gogeta who purifies Janemba, leaving Gasu to run away.

Forms and Transformations

Janemba's first form, "Janempa"

Janemba has two forms. His first form (called Janempa in the FUNimation English dub) is a chubby and very large fellow. This form uses his power in a childlike fashion to morph Hell into his own colourful fantasy playground. Janemba is a giant, with his hand being as large as Goku himself. He has small, studded horns, and his skin is yellow. Janemba's intelligence is limited; the only word he knows how to say is his own name. His attacks involve things such as creating miniature versions of himself and of Goku, punching him around from portals, and shooting balls from 4 holes on his chest.

After being defeated, Janemba transformed. The second form is more powerful and, unlike his previous form, is deadly serious. Once again, Hell morphs into Janemba's fantasy which is a desolate grey graveyard of spikes and dust. Janemba wields a fearsome red sword which he uses to almost kill Goku, but Vegeta saves him. The sword shoots out ki which can cut someone at a distance.

In his final form, Janemba's techniques included a type of deconstruction/reconstruction teleporting known as the Bunkai Teleport, portals with which he can attack through, able to stretch his arm at lengths, turning objects into deadly weapons, project his opponents own Ki back at them through portals, and a powerful sword capable of shooting slicing energy out in strikes. He becomes much more intelligent. He no longer speaks, just grunts and yells in a more sinister voice. His only weakness is when someone yells curse words at him, some pieces of him will break just like the ice jellies.

Video games

Janemba is a playable character in the game Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi and Dragon Ball Z: Shin Budokai. Both forms of Janemba were a boss in Dragon Ball Z: Buu's Fury, and is fought with two characters. Both forms of Janemba are also available to play as in Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 2.
