Babidi (Japanese: バビディ) is an evil alien wizard in the Dragon Ball franchise, and the son or clone of Bibidi. He serves as the main antagonist of the Babidi Saga and a secondary antagonist in the Majin Buu Saga. Babidi first appears in the 219th episode of the Dragon Ball Z anime and the 444th chapter of the manga. His name, along with his father Bibidi and Majin Buu's names, are a pun on the incantation 'bibbidi-bobbidi-boo' from the 1950 film Cinderella. Babidi is a cruel and sadistic character who is willing to use and sacrifice his own subordinates to achieve his goal of resurrecting Majin Buu. He possesses the ability to control those with evil in their hearts through magic, transforming them into his Majin underlings. His ultimate goal is to revive Majin Buu and use him to conquer the universe. Babidi is eventually killed by Majin Buu, bringing an end to his reign of evil. Nonetheless, Babidi remains a memorable character in the Dragon Ball universe, his cruelty and ruthlessness being an integral part of the story.
