Zant, Van

Summary

In the Dragon Ball manga, the deranged gunman known for his enjoyment of killing appears without a name, though he is identified as Van Zant in the Dragon Ball Z anime. He makes his debut during the Majin Buu Saga, operating under the twisted logic that since the world is ending, he might as well go out with a bang. In the Japanese version and the original manga, his butler Smitty addresses him as young master, suggesting that Van Zant hails from a wealthy family with Smitty serving in a subordinate role.
