Sansho is first seen when he attacks Piccolo with Ginger and Nicky. He and his comrades then kidnap Gohan at Goku's house in order to have the Dragon Ball on his hat. Later, Sansho and Ginger find and bring the last Dragon Balls to Garlic Jr. who summons Shenron and wishes for immortality. Sansho, Ginger and Nicky fight Goku after Goku arrives at Garlic Jr.'s fortress to save Gohan. At one point, Sansho becomes separated from his comrades and tries to attack Krillin but is stopped by Piccolo. Though he states that he does not need Ginger and Nicky's help to finish the Namekian off, he is still quickly slain after Piccolo punches him through several pillars and is killed by a Ki Blast.
Unnamed Spinning Technique – Nicky, Ginger, and Sansho spin around their opponent, forming a vortex where they all attack while flying around, and then catch the opponent and slam them into the ground.
Sansho is a boss in the video game Dragon Ball Z: Kyōshū! Saiyan; his power level is 1,300. His character model re-appears later in the game under the name "Cinnamon" (シナモン, Shinamon) as a common foe whose power level is 270.
"Sansho" is also the Japanese name for Sichuan pepper.
While in the Japanese dub it is "Unaju" (eel rice), in the Ocean dub, his battle cry was "Pepperoni"; however, in the FUNimation dub, his battle cry has been changed to "Cheese!"; in the AB Groupe dub, his battle cry was simply "Ready, loser?" and in the Speedy dub it was "Yunago".
Sansho was the only member of Garlic Jr.'s trio of villains from Dead Zone who did not share his name with a town featured in the Imperfect Cell Saga.
In the AB Groupe dub of Dead Zone, he goes through three different voice actors.[1]
