Zebra is a member of the Four Heavenly Kings, known for his unparalleled mastery of sound. His brutal nature and explosive temper earned him a fearsome reputation, landing him in prison for a time. However, his immense strength and loyalty to his comrades make him an invaluable ally when the stakes are high.
Having served time for crimes committed in pursuit of his ideals, Zebra carries the scars of his past, both literal and emotional. His release was contingent on the need for his unique abilities to tackle the world's deadliest challenges, from Gourmet World expeditions to life-threatening encounters with powerful beasts.
Though harsh and unrelenting, Zebra has a deep, if grudging, respect for those who prove themselves. He’s a man of few words but packs a punch—sometimes literally—when he chooses to speak. His mission is simple: crush anything that stands in the way of his goals, especially if it threatens those he begrudgingly calls allies.

- 💥 Fearless
- 🔒 Dependable
Zebra’s personality is as loud as his powers. He’s quick to anger and quicker to act, often using his sheer presence to dominate situations. While he comes across as intimidating and overbearing, his actions often reflect an unspoken code of honour. He doesn’t sugarcoat anything and says exactly what he thinks, regardless of how it might be received.
Despite his gruff demeanour, Zebra values strength and integrity in others. Those who earn his trust will find an unyielding protector willing to go to any lengths to safeguard them. However, his abrasive nature makes it difficult for most people to see past his harsh exterior. He gets easily embarrassed about his affection.
Zebra has a deep disdain for cockiness, finding it intolerable when others act above their abilities. He especially despises lies, valuing directness and honesty above all else. There's nothing cockier than saying one thing to someone's face and another behind their back. One of his defining traits is his ironclad adherence to his promises—once he gives his word, he’ll see it through no matter the cost.
Appearance
Zebra is a towering figure, standing at an imposing height of 255 cm, with a muscular build. He has a half 'Glasgow smile,' and is covered in scars from his many battles.
His attire is usually practical, but he's known to wear a suit for fancy events and . You can view his face here and his build here. Zebra’s voice is deep and resonant, the anime cast it well!
Abilities
Zebra's body is packed with Gourmet Cells, cells that increase their potency in response to more delicious meals. Thanks to these cells, Zebra possesses a ludicrous 'shake the Earth' style of physical strength and durability. The cells have adapted to numerous environments.
His cells are possessed by an Appetite Demon, a being that existed in the real world but eventually died, and whose spirit has entered Zebra's cells. He can manifest bodyparts of the Voice Demon, and it lends Zebra his powers of incredible hearing and sound powers, including sonic blasts, travelling at the speed of sound, making sound solid and other sound tricks.The list is exhaustive.
Notes
I play Zebra from the manga version of Toriko.
