BiographyEdit

Kado and his brother Abo were once soldiers who served under Frieza, ranking in the same tier as the Ginyu Force, as Vegeta explains in hindsight. Two years after the defeat of Kid Buu, Vegeta's estranged brother Tarble, accompanied by his wife Gure, flee to Earth to seek Vegeta's assistance in defeating the brother duo, whom Tarble confesses have since become as powerful as Frieza and have been terrorizing a remote star which he calls home.

Kado and Abo pursuit Tarble and Gure to Earth using Saiyan Pods, where Trunks and Goten are unleashed on the two. After struggles from both sides, Kado and Abo fuse into Aka, prompting Trunks and Goten to fuse into Gotenks and incite another battle. When Aka begins to demonstrate more significantly devastating power, Goku and Vegeta prepare to destroy him, however a trick Goku plays on Vegeta results in Goku successfully being the one to vanquish Aka.

During the closing sequence of the film, Kado and Abo join the Z Fighters and their friends at Mr. Satan's ruined banquet, where they are seen eating Chi-Chi's radishes.

TriviaEdit

• Kado is one of the few Dragon Ball movie villains not to be killed (others include: King Gurumes, Abo and Garlic Jr.).
