Name
Nink's name is likely derived from Garlic (大蒜). Closely related to the onion, garlic is used as a common food flavoring ingredient worldwide. As with many organic/biological terms in Japan, garlic is typically written in katakana as ニンニク (nin’niku). The character name drops the third syllable of the katakana spelling.[3]
Performance
Nink is voiced by Eiji Takemoto. In the Tournament of Power, Takemoto also voices Bergamo of Universe 9. In the FUNimation dub, Nink is voiced by Jim Johnson in his first credited role for the Dragon Ball franchise.
