In his fight with Vegeta, Goku isn't made out to be suffering from the HeroicRROD like he was in canon. When he first turns Super Saiyan and grips Freeza by the hand, Freeza isn't able to break free like in canon, he only gets free because Goku let go and smacked him. Not to mention that when he shot Cooler into the sun, he blew up the sun by accident.

** In a deleted scene that is implied to still have happened in the Broly movie, Goku has [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness an uncharacteristic hatred]] towards Pilaf [[JerkassToOne exclusively]] due to him being [[StarterVillain his first villain ever]]. This is actually so vehement that even years after Pilaf has fallen off the radar, Goku actively harasses and bullies him to the point of being riddled with severe PTSD and needing medication to cope with Goku's continued existence... something Goku ''[[{{Sadist}} actively]]'' enjoys, which is a level of sadism never shown to anyone, even ''Freeza'' when Goku first turned Super Saiyan in canon.

** The Creator Commentary for the Broly movie shows an animatic of a cut scene where Goku confronts Pilaf and he's uncharacteristically ''vicious'' towards him. The reason? Pilaf's the first villain Goku ever faced, ''and'' as far as he knows never truly redeemed himself. For some reason he never extends this line of logic to Mercenary Tao, but both Tao and Pilaf are ''scared shitless'' of Goku regardless.
