Misokatsun is one of the three Bio-Warriors created by Dr. Kochin who serve Dr. Wheelo in the movie Dragon Ball Z: The World's Strongest.
Overview
Easily the most unusual-looking of the three, Misokatsun is an enormous yellow ball of putty with a mechanical interior, and while he looks sluggish, he is actually quite fast and sports large claws. Similar to the previous villain, Buyon, his main ability is his incredible flexibility, which allows him to deflect attacks off his rubbery belly. Misokatsun's name is derived from a variety ofkatsu (deep-fried breaded pork) famous to Nagoya, Japan; thekatsu is either dipped in a miso-based sauce or the sauce is poured over it before serving.
Biography
The World Strongest
Alongside Ebifurya and Kishime, he is unleashed to fight Master Roshi, and deflects a Kamehameha off of his stomach back at Roshi. Later, when Gokuarrives at Wheelo's fortress, Misokatsun emerges from under the ice under Goku's feet outside of Dr. Wheelo's fortress. Goku tries to punch him in the belly, but his hand only sinks in. Afterward, Misokatsun chases Goku into the first level of the fortress and fights him there. Misokatsun is then killed, when Goku plows straight through him with a Kaio-ken, stretching his body beyond its limits and literally bursting him like a balloon.
Fusion Reborn
Along with countless other Dragon Ball antagonists, Misokatsun makes a cameo appearance in the 1995 film Dragon Ball Z: Fusion Reborn, when the residents of Hell, make their escape to Earth.
