Trunks and Idasa prepare to fight
At fifteen years old, Idasa competed in the 25th World Martial Arts Tournament. He is very arrogant and first taunts Trunks with a missing punch, claiming that Trunks stood no chance at beating him which didn't concern Trunks. However, when in the ring, Trunks defeats Idasa with a sweep and a kick with barely any effort. When he loses to Trunks, his mother is as angry at him as she is at Trunks and she punishes him for losing.
Later, when Babidi is searching for Trunks, Goten, and Piccolo, Idasa tells his mother where Trunks lives and she immediately tells Babidi. Idasa is presumably killed by Super Buu's Human Extinction Attack and resurrected soon after by the Dragon Balls.

Trivia
- Idasa's name is an anagram of the Japanese word "dasai" (ダサイ) meaning lame or out of fashion. According to Akira Toriyama, the name came about due to him thinking Idasa's hairstyle was uncool. This pun is carried over in the Viz translation of the manga, where his name is "Laem".
