Biography
Films
Angira appeared in Dragon Ball Z: Lord Slug. Along with Wings and Medamatcha, he located the Dragon Balls for Slugg. After Piccolo executed Wings and came to rescue Son Gohan, Angira grabbed him from underground. Angira was lifted into the sky by the Namekian, however, as he tried to hold on to him. Piccolo managed to make Angira let go when he fired the Eye Lasers at him and shielded Gohan from Medamatcha's attack. After Son Goku furiously took out Medamatcha, the enraged Angira fired a Mouth Energy Wave at Goku, only to have the Ki Blast deflected right back into his mouth, go into his stomach, and kill him.
