Neiz seems too often underestimate his opponents. He often insults and laughs at his opponents during battle. Furthermore, he seems to like toying with his opponents. He seems to care for his comrades, as he is clearly angered by [[Dore]]'s death. That said, he is not above arguing with them, as he briefly entered a bitter argument with Dore after he accidentally hit the latter with a kick to the head due to [[Goku]] dodging his kick at the last second (as Goku had been pinned by Dore in a [[Bear Hug]] earlier). Like his comrades, he is very loyal to and respectful of [[Cooler]]. Like [[Burter]], he is very proud of his speed.

During [[Frieza]]'s [[genocide of the Saiyans]], Neiz manned the monitors for [[Cooler's Spaceship|Cooler's ship]] as the [[Cooler's Armored Squadron|Armored Squadron]] watched the last moments of [[Planet Vegeta]]. He was then ordered by [[Salza]] to not only track an escaping [[Attack Ball]] from the planet but get a close-up of the attack ball to identify its [[Goku|occupant]]. He managed to trace the trajectory as the pod headed towards the planet [[Earth]], and was ordered to intercept the course, although [[Cooler]] overruled and ordered the aforementioned order to be belayed, with Neiz kneeling before him.
Neiz arrives on [[Earth]] with Cooler and his teammates Salza and Dore in order to ambush [[Goku]]. He knocks [[Krillin]] out just as the latter is about to warn [[Gohan]] about Dore sneaking up behind him. He then fights against Goku after he arrives back at the campsite. After Dore traps Goku in a [[Bear Hug]], he attempts to kick Goku, but Goku manages to avoid his kick, resulting in Neiz kicking Dore by mistake and ends up arguing with him. While arguing, Goku deflects Salza's [[Full Power Energy Wave]] towards Neiz, to which Neiz notices and narrowly evades at the last second by retracting his head into his body. Later on, when he is ordered by Cooler to search for Goku after a failed attempt at killing Goku and Gohan by [[Full Power Energy Barrage Wave|bombarding the landscape]], he briefly detects Krillin's [[Ki Blast]] using his [[scouter]], but ends up believing that his scouter is actually detecting a [[pterodactyl]] after narrowly avoiding one flying towards him. Afterwards, he fights Gohan and eventually Piccolo. While fighting Piccolo, he also avoided his Chasing Bullet ki blast by tucking his head into his body and then taunted him about missing him. However, he then learned from Sauza that Piccolo had actually been aiming for Dore, with his being sucker punched when turning around to verify the claim. After Dore's death, Neiz attempts to neutralize Piccolo by using his [[Neiz Bind Wave|Electric Bind Wave]] technique. This only results in a smirk from the [[Namekian]] as he grabs Neiz, sending the electricity through Neiz's body, thus frying and killing Neiz.

Years later, Neiz reported to Cooler that Frieza had apparently been killed by a Saiyan, Goku, who hailed from Earth after escaping Planet Vegeta prior to its destruction, before Cooler promptly ordered for them to chart a course for the planet so they can deal with Goku. Neiz arrives on Earth with Cooler and his teammates, Salza and [[Dore]], in order to ambush Goku. He knocks [[Krillin]] out just as the latter is about to warn [[Gohan]] about Dore sneaking up behind him. He then fights against Goku after he arrives back at the campsite. After Dore traps Goku in a [[Bear Hug]], he attempts to kick Goku, but Goku manages to avoid his kick, resulting in Neiz kicking Dore by mistake and arguing with him.

Later on, when he is ordered by Cooler to search for Goku after a failed attempt at killing Goku and Gohan by [[Continuous Energy Bullet|bombarding the landscape]], he briefly detects Krillin's [[Ki Blast]] using his [[scouter]] but ends up believing that his scouter is actually detecting a [[pterodactyl]] after narrowly avoiding one flying towards him. Afterwards, he fights Gohan and eventually [[Piccolo]], with his also having to remind Dore about the fate of Piccolo's [[Namek|home planet]] when the latter demanded to know why he wasn't on his home planet instead of on Earth. While fighting Piccolo, he also avoided his [[Chasing Bullet]] by tucking his head into his body and then taunted him about missing him. However, he then learned from Salza that Piccolo had actually been aiming for Dore, with his being sucker punched by Piccolo when turning around to verify the claim. After Dore's death, Neiz attempts to neutralize Piccolo by using his [[Neiz Bind Wave]]. This only results in a smirk from the [[Namekian]] as he grabs Neiz, sending the electricity through Neiz's body, thus frying and killing Neiz.

"As if it matters what he thinks. What matters is what Lord Cooler thinks."
Dragon Ball Z: Cooler's Revenge


Neiz (ネイズ Neizu, lit. "Naise") is a member of Cooler's Armored Squadron under the Cooler Force. He accompanies Cooler along with the rest of his team to Earth in the hunt for the Saiyan that defeated Frieza.

Appearance

Neiz is a tall, brown reptilian humanoid. He has big yellow eyes, pointy ears, he wears the same upper body armor as his comrades, and he has a partial purple jumpsuit that covers his torso to his thighs. Neiz wears a blue scouter that is connected to a head strap.

Personality

Neiz seems too often underestimate his opponents. He often insults and laughs at his opponents during battle. Furthermore, he seems to like toying with his opponents. He seems to care for his comrades, as he is clearly angered by Dore's death. That said, he is not above arguing with them, as he briefly entered a bitter argument with Dore after he accidentally hit the latter with a kick to the head due to Goku dodging his kick at the last second (as Goku had been pinned by Dore in a Bear Hug earlier). Like his comrades, he is very loyal to and respectful of Cooler. Like Burter, he is very proud of his speed.

Biography

Background

Neiz is from planet Coola No. 6 (formerly planet Zalt). His home planet is nothing but water, and his race evolved from a species of amphibians.[4]

Super Dragon Ball Heroes

Supreme Kai of Time Saga

Main article: Supreme Kai of Time Saga An incarnation of Neiz, Salza, Dore, and several other Combatants allied with an incarnation of Raditz before they were collected to battle as competitors in the Super Space-Time Tournament, making up Team 10. As a result of his team failing to advance to the second round of the tournament, Neiz and his space-time were erased.

Neiz attacks Gohan

During Frieza's genocide of the Saiyans, Neiz manned the monitors for Cooler's ship as the Armored Squadron watched the last moments of Planet Vegeta. He was then ordered by Salza to not only track an escaping Attack Ball from the planet but get a close-up of the attack ball to identify its occupant. He managed to trace the trajectory as the pod headed towards the planet Earth, and was ordered to intercept the course, although Cooler overruled and ordered the aforementioned order to be belayed, with Neiz kneeling before him.

Years later, Neiz reported to Cooler that Frieza had apparently been killed by a Saiyan, Goku, who hailed from Earth after escaping Planet Vegeta prior to its destruction, before Cooler promptly ordered for them to chart a course for the planet so they can deal with Goku. Neiz arrives on Earth with Cooler and his teammates, Salza and Dore, in order to ambush Goku. He knocks Krillin out just as the latter is about to warn Gohan about Dore sneaking up behind him. He then fights against Goku after he arrives back at the campsite. After Dore traps Goku in a Bear Hug, he attempts to kick Goku, but Goku manages to avoid his kick, resulting in Neiz kicking Dore by mistake and arguing with him. While they are arguing, Goku deflects Salza's Full Power Energy Wave towards Neiz, to which Neiz notices and narrowly evades at the last second by retracting his head into his body. Later on, when he is ordered by Cooler to search for Goku after a failed attempt at killing Goku and Gohan by bombarding the landscape, he briefly detects Krillin's Ki Blast using his scouter but ends up believing that his scouter is actually detecting a pterodactyl after narrowly avoiding one flying towards him. Afterwards, he fights Gohan and eventually Piccolo, with his also having to remind Dore about the fate of Piccolo's home planet when the latter demanded to know why he wasn't on his home planet instead of on Earth. While fighting Piccolo, he also avoided his Chasing Bullet by tucking his head into his body and then taunted him about missing him. However, he then learned from Salza that Piccolo had actually been aiming for Dore, with his being sucker punched by Piccolo when turning around to verify the claim. After Dore's death, Neiz attempts to neutralize Piccolo by using his Neiz Bind Wave. This only results in a smirk from the Namekian as he grabs Neiz, sending the electricity through Neiz's body, thus frying and killing Neiz.

Power

Films

Neiz's Neiz Bind Wave is completely ineffective against Piccolo, who turns it back on him, resulting in Neiz's death.

Statements by authors and guidebooks

It is stated in the 1991 Weekly Shōnen Jump no. 25 that Neiz's power level is 163,000.

According to Shonen Jump, Neiz prides himself on his speed (similar to Burter) and can create an electric charge from his body (similar to Kishime). Neiz also can pull his head into/and out of his body (similar to a turtle in its shell).

Daizenshuu 6 notes that the Armored Squadron possess power comparable to, or possibly greater than, Frieza's best men (the Ginyu Force).

Video games

In Dragon Ball Z III: Ressen Jinzōningen, Neiz can kill Vegeta if Vegeta didn't train enough.

Trivia

  • His name comes from a pun on the condiment "mayonnaise".
  • Out of all the Ginyu Force members, Neiz seems to be modeled after Burter in terms of appearance and personality.
  • Neiz made two references to eating humanoids in Coolers Revenge: the first was when Cooler shot Goku and Gohan into the waterfall area, Neiz commented "Smoked meat!", and the second was when he caught Piccolo in his Bind Wave he said "Deep-fried Nameks, yummy!" Both of these references were dub additions, as Neiz was originally silent in the first instance, and the second had Neiz asking impatiently when the body bind wave was going to start affecting Piccolo.
