Watagash

Watagash's History

Dragon Ball Z Majin Buu Saga

Barry Kahn is shown in the magazine from a young lady that Majin Buu meets while on a killing spree. Majin Buu morphs his face into the face of this "Super Star" to impress and make the girl kiss him, but he fails to do so, only terrorizing her. He is an A-list actor. It is unclear how he died during the Majin Buu Conflict though he was presumably killed either during Innocent Buu's rampage, Super Buu's Human Extinction Attack, or when Kid Buu destroyed the Earth. He was later revived along with the rest of Earth's population by Porunga and continued his acting career.

Dragon Ball Super "Future" Trunks Saga

Barry was cast to play Great Saiyaman and gets jealous of Gohan being married to Videl and gaining all the attention as his stunt double in the movie. In an attempt to ruin Gohan's reputation and marriage, Barry blackmailed popular idol and co-star Cocoa Amaguri into setting up a private rehearsal with Gohan in her room in order to create false evidence of an affair, though unbeknownst to Cocoa, he sadistically planned to ruin her acting and music career through the resulting scandal. However, Cocoa (who had discovered Gohan was the real Great Saiyaman and developed a crush on him) could not go through with it and attempted to thwart Barry by changing the rehearsal location. Unfortunately, Barry followed them and discovered Gohan's secret identity and unfortunately Cocoa made the mistake of innocently kissing Gohan on the lips as an innocent gesture thanking him for his kindness and words of encouragement which played right into Barry's hands. Barry then used pictures of the kiss to convince Videl her husband had been unfaithful while acting concerned in an attempt to woo her. However, she is not so easily fooled, seeing through Barry's acting as she knows that such behavior is out-of-character for her pure-hearted husband. Videl states he is pathetic and forces him to leave. Barry, however, swears he will reveal Great Saiyaman's true identity. However, he is possessed by the space criminal Watagash while on set for the Great Saiyaman vs. Mr Satan movie and his evil nature allows Watagash to increase Barry's power allowing both the space criminal and Barry to take revenge on Gohan. Barry kidnaps Pan to draw Gohan out though Gohan fights him as Great Saiyaman to save his daughter. Feeding off Barry's evil nature and hatred of Gohan, Watagash allows him to transform into three stronger forms each more monstrous than the last. He tries to kill Great Saiyaman, although Gohan defeats him by transforming into Super Great Saiyaman and ultimately defeats Watagash, freeing Barry from the possession. Cocoa then makes sure Barry's blackmail will never happen, by threatening to expose that he was the monster Gohan fought, forcing him to keep that knowledge to himself to protect his own reputation and career.
