The Weekly ☆ Character Showcase is an article series where we introduce one character from the Dragon Ball universe each week.
For the 135th installment we are spending some time with a terrifying earth shaker, Zunama!
Zunama is a fearsome monster living on Planet Kelvo who is said to have the power to create earthquakes by just wiggling his whiskers.
He demands the village mayor's daughter, Leine, as his bride and threatens to continue terrorizing the village with earthquakes unless they hand her over.
However, unbeknownst to him, Trunks steps in for Leine and disguises himself in a bridal gown. Zunama is so excited that he fails to notice the switch and whisks the half-Saiyan off to his home on Mt. Gelvo.
Goku and his friends follow Zunama to his lair and, once the beast becomes drunk, cut off some of his whiskers.
Angry about being double-crossed, he wiggles his whiskers, and the earth begins to shake. However, for some reason, the shaking stops even though Zunama is still wiggling his whiskers. It turns out that he wasn't creating the earthquakes the whole time; he could only sense them coming!
The now defeated Zunama cries out that, "I never meant any harm! Truly! I only meant it as a joke!", and since he shows (at least some) remorse, he is allowed to continue to live in the village under the conditions he'll let everyone know if there is an earthquake coming.

He doesn't have just one type?!
You'd think that Zunama would be thrown into a rage when the wig Trunks was wearing falls off, but instead he's delighted, saying "I love short hair on young women!"
