Although Zeno may look harmless, he is hailed as the most powerful character in the Dragon Ball series. He has destroyed 6 out of 18 universes, so even though he has never been seen fighting, he is still an intimidating force to be reckoned with.

The kami possess powers of the elements such as fire, water, air, and various landscapes. They represent both good and evil and can also be spirits of those who have passed on, including emperors and other power figures. The Japanese believe in many kami and have many names for the various spirits, some of which you'll recognize. Many of the "gods" we see in traditional anime are of the Shinto religion.
