The Weekly ☆ Character Showcase is an article series where we introduce one character from the Dragon Ball universe each week. This week, let's take a look at Minoshiya from the movie "Dragon Ball Z: Wrath of the Dragon"!
A legendary hero who saved Planet Konats located in the South Galaxy 1000 years ago.
He is a kind-hearted boy who adores his older brother, Tapion.
A demon sealed in a statue absorbed and purified the Evil Ki of the inhabitants of Konats. However, a group of sorcerers from somewhere unknown appeared on the planet and flooded the statue with evil energy, transforming it into the terrifying phantom Hirudegan.
Together with his older brother Tapion, Minoshiya uses a legendary flute to suppress Hirudegan's power. After being cut in half, Hirudegan's lower half was sealed within Minoshiya, and the upper half within Tapion.
Peace returns to Planet Konats, and Minoshiya and his brother are praised as heroes. But their lives are under contant threat from the sorcerers trying to take back Hirudegan. To prevent Hirudegan from being resurrected once more, Minoshiya and Tapion were sealed inside music boxes and exiled to different galaxies.

Minoshiya was a hero who fought bravely to the end!
1000 years after Minoshiya and Tapion were sealed away, the sorcerer Hoi attempted to find the music boxes and revive Hirudegan. Though Minoshiya did his utmost to prevent the resurrection of Hirudegan's lower body, he was no match for Hoi and lost his life.
