* JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope: Frieza and Cooler both had their morality beaten out of them (sometimes literally) by King Cold after their mother died, and her influence with her.

* PapaWolf: Goku, and Frieza.

* TransformingisAFreeOption: Averted completely. Transformations are interrupted quite a few times, and when someone manages to pull one off without a hitch, it is usually justified.

* {{Determinator}}: Frieza goes through alot of shit, for the sole purpose of getting a rematch against Goku.

[[spoiler: Goten and Trunks get a horrific stomping from Hatchiyack.]]
* OlderThanTheyLook: Frieza is nearing his fifties and Inyon is at least 7 years older than Prince Vegeta.
