Background / History

Kashius arrived on Earth in the same Saiyan spacecraft as Kakarot. Although they are twins, Kakarot was born several seconds first, making Kashius the younger brother. Kashius retained memories and knowledge that Kakarot lost after his head injury, including awareness that they were Saiyans rather than Earthlings. 2 78 79

He was raised alongside Goku under Son Gohan's care. Their relationship began competitively—Kashius was repeatedly beaten by Goku aboard their spacecraft—but grew into a deeply protective brotherhood. 2 620 684

Kashius originally viewed the world through the perspective of a twentieth-first-century transmigrator with foreknowledge of major events. As the timeline changed around him, he became increasingly afraid that the world's will regarded him as an anomaly to be erased permanently. 138 311

His soul was later revealed to have been affected by the Mirror Heart Demon, splitting it into multiple personalities. A hidden personality carrying Ancestral Power eventually fused with him, dramatically raising his talent, potential, and control over that power. 575 616

Appearance

Kashius is a handsome, slender Saiyan with a youthful and sunny appearance. He was already around 1.6 meters tall as a child, making him noticeably taller and more mature-looking than Goku. 20 85 485

• Normally has black hair and a comparatively lean build. 20 485
• His eyes can become brilliant gold when his Ancestral Power is active. 485 583
• His Super Saiyan forms produce golden hair and aura; Super Saiyan 2 additionally manifests purple lightning. 356
• White God gives him pure white hair and retains his distinctive golden eyes. 736

Personality

Kashius is calculating, pragmatic, and frequently shameless when pursuing a goal. He manipulated Goku and Krillin into accepting his preferred division of tournament prize money, treating their money as shared while keeping his own separate. 27 He dislikes unnecessary danger and openly criticizes Goku's tendency to give powerful enemies opportunities to grow stronger. 220

In battle, he favors planning, mobility, barriers, and exploiting an opponent's weaknesses over direct contests of Saiyan pride. This approach lets him frustrate Broly despite Broly's superior raw strength. 436

His protectiveness is intense and often dangerous. Threats to Goku, Android 18, Karnier, or others he considers family can trigger violent rage and loss of control. After accidentally killing surviving palace guards during an outburst, Kashius was horrified by what his Saiyan nature was doing to his morality. 138 457

Despite his harsh manner, Kashius is capable of gratitude, loyalty, and responsibility. He considers Goku his true older brother, protects Earth because it is his home, and becomes increasingly devoted to his children and to Majin Buu's well-being. 260 436 628

Abilities & Skills

Saiyan Physiology and Transformations

Kashius possesses the standard capabilities of a Saiyan, including extreme combat growth, ki control, flight, heightened battle instincts, and Great Ape-derived power.

• Can sense powerful ki over long distances and distinguish hostile presences. 125 246
• His emotional instability can trigger berserk transformations, particularly when people close to him are harmed. 75 138
• His Ancestral Power manifests through golden pupils, a Golden Great Ape phantom, and later controlled transformations. 376 496 539

• Rising Dragon Fist — uses a launching strike against Goku during the World Martial Arts Tournament. 24
• Energy barriers — creates shields to withstand barrages of energy attacks. 436

Ancestral Power

Ancestral Power is the source of Kashius's most unusual transformations and his ability to rival or surpass Goku.

• Originates from the hidden personality within his divided soul. 575 616
• Was initially unstable, causing abnormal behavior and a loss of reason in Golden Great Ape form. 376
• Later becomes fully recovered and controllable, allowing Kashius to fight Goku while maintaining composure. 496 539
• Can be condensed into massive constructs, including a gigantic golden hand used against Vegeta. 583

Energy Fusion

Kashius and Goku studied a Yardrat method of fusing their ancestral powers into one body.

• Requires one user to inject power into the other, producing a combined ultimate technique rather than a permanent fusion. 382
• Causes severe physical pain and instability for Kashius. 382
• His attempt to draw on his other self's power drains Goku out of Super Saiyan 2 and carries an unspecified price. 383
• The combined ancestral powers help lead to Kashius's Super Saiyan 4 transformation. 383 384

Instant Transmission

Kashius learned Instant Transmission during training on Yardrat.

• Can travel from Hell back to Earth instantly. 444
• Trained alongside Goku while studying Yardrat techniques and ancestral-power fusion. 382

Fusion Dance

Kashius knows and teaches the Fusion Dance as a potential answer to overwhelming opponents.

• Teaches the technique to Goku as a secret weapon against Broly. 409
• Believes a successful fusion between the twin brothers could exceed other known Saiyan fusions. 409

Equipment / Items

• Flying Bird — Kashius's private spacecraft. It has shield mode, lightspeed mode, translation functions, and responds to his mental commands. He uses it to travel to Namek and escape Namek's destruction. 168 262
• Hoi-Poi Capsules — carries capsules for emergency storage and transport, including one used to preserve the Shopkeeper's body. 125
• Dragon Radar — borrows Bulma's radar to locate Dragon Balls. 27 132
• Senzu Beans — keeps beans supplied by Bulma for emergencies. 246

Relationships

• Son Goku / Kakarot — Twin older brother. Their rivalry is constant, but Kashius ultimately trusts Goku more than anyone and repeatedly fights beside him to protect their family. 2 79 260 379
• Android 18 — Wife and former fiancée. Kashius is fiercely committed to her, fought Cell to free her, and later saved her from Toppo. 356 461 722 729
• Karnier — Son. Kashius is protective and affectionate toward him, though Karnier is more hesitant and considerate than his father. 539 625
• Lacus — Daughter. Kashius is shown carrying and protecting her before the Tournament of Power. 721 787
• Bulma — Longtime friend and frequent sparring partner in conversation. She helped him obtain the Dragon Radar and agreed to build a Gravity Chamber; their teasing often masks genuine concern. 27 111 246

• Black Kashius — Hostile duplicate who shares Kashius's appearance, mannerisms, and combat techniques. Their conflict becomes a fight in which each believes only one can survive. 72 73
• Heixius — Kashius's split personality and enemy on Namek. Kashius seeks to reclaim him to complete his soul, while Heixius resists using the Magic Mirror. 171 182
• Majin Buu — Initially treated as a threat, but gradually accepted as someone Kashius wants to protect alongside Karnier and the other children. 625 628

Story Role / Major Arcs

Early Earth and World Martial Arts Tournament

Kashius trains with Goku, enters the World Martial Arts Tournament for its prize money, and meets Bulma, Yamcha, and Krillin. His desire for wealth is immediately apparent when he pressures Goku and Krillin into sharing their winnings on his terms. 20 24 27

Kami's Lookout and Black Kashius

After training under Kami and Mr. Popo, Kashius reaches nearly 3,000 combat power and gains a stronger martial-arts foundation. He later battles Black Kashius, a duplicate so identical that Goku cannot distinguish them. 41 72 73

King Piccolo Crisis

Kashius confronts King Piccolo's forces, tracks the Dragon Balls, and descends on King Piccolo's location like a meteor. His rage afterward destroys a palace and kills surviving guards, forcing him to confront the darker influence of his Saiyan instincts. 125 132 138

Namek and Frieza

Kashius travels to Namek aboard Flying Bird, seeks Grand Elder Guru, and becomes involved in the conflict surrounding Frieza. After becoming trapped in a spatial rift, he is rescued by an unknown cloaked figure and later reunites with Goku's group on Namek. 171 173 219 266

After Trunks reveals that the Androids killed Kashius in his future, Kashius commits himself to harder training. He returns during the Cell conflict, declares Android 18 his fiancée, and transforms into Super Saiyan 2 to force Cell to release her. 301 356

The Cell crisis also exposes Kashius's unstable ancestral power. He becomes a Golden Great Ape-like being, loses control, and is later defended by Goku against enemies connected to Heaven and the world's will. 376 379 380

Broly Conflict

Following Goku's death at Broly's hands, Kashius fights Broly for vengeance. Rather than meeting Broly head-on, he uses barriers, mobility, environmental awareness, and experimental vortex-based attacks to offset the Legendary Super Saiyan's brute strength. 409 435 436

Family Life and Majin Buu

Kashius becomes a father to Karnier and later Lacus, while building a domestic life with Android 18. He grows protective of Majin Buu after Buu befriends Karnier, even planning to use the Dragon Balls to erase Earth's fear of Buu. 482 625 628 721

Tournament of Power

Kashius enters the Tournament of Power as one of Universe 7's strongest fighters. He reveals power beyond Beerus, defeats Toppo with a single kick after Toppo overwhelms Android 18, and later unveils his perfected White God form. 722 729 736
