Wasabi is a character from San Fransokyo in Kingdom Hearts III. He originated in the Disney film Big Hero 6.
He is a member of Big Hero 6, alongside Hiro Hamada, Baymax, Go Go Tomago, Honey Lemon, and Fred.
Story[edit]
Kingdom Hearts III[edit]
Hiro introduces Big Hero 6 to Sora, Donald and Goofy in Hiro's garage.
In the city, Sora's Double Arrowguns Formchange inspires Wasabi to turn his laser hands into projectiles. He is later seen using this while fighting the Heartless.
Design[edit]
Wasabi is a dark-skinned man with brown hair in dreadlocks and brown eyes. While fighting alongside Big Hero 6, he wears green chest armor and pauldrons with blue pants, a red headband and belt, and a green visor with a black bodysuit with red highlights underneath. His gauntlets are equipped with twin cyan plasma blades, which he normally uses for melee combat; after observing Sora's fighting style, he modifies his suit so that he can fire projectiles.
Personality[edit]
Wasabi is rather mature and somewhat serious. Like Go Go, he is also mission-oriented, focusing on planning things out. However, Wasabi is also known for being somewhat cowardly, evident from his fear of heights, as he is the only member of Big Hero 6 to not be on a tall building when Sora visits at night.
Origin[edit]
Wasabi first appeared in the 2014 Disney animated film Big Hero 6, and subsequently, Big Hero 6: The Series. He is inspired by Wasabi-No-Ginger from Marvel Comics.
In the film, it is mentioned that Wasabi is a nickname given to him by Fred from an incident in which he spilled wasabi on his shirt. He is an engineering student of San Fransokyo Institution of Technology and a friend of Hiro's brother Tadashi. He helps Hiro in designing the microbots, but when Tadashi dies in a fire, Hiro rallies Wasabi and Tadashi's other friends in stopping the person responsible.
He was voiced by Damon Wayans Jr. in the film, the only media in which Wayans voices Wasabi. Khary Payton has provided the voice from Big Hero 6: The Series onwards.
