Wizard Barrier (, Baria no Majutsu) is a energy shield used by Babidi.

Overview

With both hands in front of him, Babidi shouts the word "barrier" to make a circular barrier appear and surround his body.

Usage

Babidi uses the Wizard Barrier to protect himself from Innocent Buu's Angry Explosion. He also uses it to protect himself from Piccolo's attacks, which he succeeds only for a small period of time, after which Piccolo breaks the barrier and cuts Babidi in half with his arm. Babidi uses it again to protect himself from Vegeta's Final Explosion.

In the anime, Innocent Buu uses a similar barrier, called Protective Bubble, to protect himself when the Earth's Military attacked him.

Video Game Appearances

The Wizard Barrier was named in Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3, where it appears as one of Babidi's Blast 1. When Babidi performs this technique, his Crystal Ball flies around him.

In Dragon Ball: Xenoverse, the technique is referenced by Babidi's equippable Z-Soul "Papparapah! Barrier!" which has a low chance of activating when damage is received. When activated it reduces Stamina instead of Health and the user will not stagger when taking damage.
