Despite being quiet and powerful, he also has a childish nature mocking Krillin for shortcomings that Chiaotzu himself has when they first meet.Ĭhiaotzu's Japanese name (餃子) is a pun on the Chinese food jiaozi (called gyoza in Japanese), in line with the tradition of naming various Dragon Ball characters after foods and other oddities. Chiaotzu has also demonstrated an inability to quickly solve basic addition problems, or grasp some jokes. He is based on Chinese vampires, or the Kyoshi, as the similarities are displayed in both his appearance and also when Chiaotzu performs some of his attacks.
This was absent in the original Japanese anime and manga, however.Ĭhiaotzu is a human who posseses a few different traits than most characters in the series, such as plain white skin and red cheeks. Although this is non-manga, at the end of the Frieza Saga, Chiaotzu is referred to as "Emperor Chiaotzu" by the narrator in the English anime (episode "Goku's Alive!!"). In the film, Chiaotzu is manipulated by Shen, who he believes is helping him reunite with his "wife", Ran Ran, who is revealed after the climax to be Chiaotzu's beloved doll. In the movie Dragon Ball: Mystical Adventure, which shows an alternate version of most of the characters, Chiaotzu appears as the king of the Mifan Empire with Tien as his bodyguard. In the game Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 2, Chiaotzu's history says that he is a member of a military family. It is known that he was a student along with Tien of Master Shen, and he specializes in skills that involve telepathy and Telekinesis. Compared to other Dragon Ball characters, relatively little is revealed about Chiaotzu.
