* TookALevelInBadass: On more of an emotional level. After coming back from his explosive space death, he seems a lot less scared when dealing with the androids, compared to the wreck he was on Namek. His ButtMonkey status currently shifted to Yamcha means he has time to snark and just enjoy the adventure.

* TheComicallySerious: He's a serious, menacing villain- or rather, he ''tries'' to be. The combination of monkey wrenches being thrown into his plans and the general silliness of being in an Abridged Series tends to leave him rather flabbergasted. In particular, note his subverted BadassBoast on 19's behalf.

* BadassBost: Attempted at the beginning of episode 36 (albeit for 19 rather than himself). It would have been more effective if 19 had actually managed to land a blow on Goku (and hadn't been saying "ouch" repeatedly and deadpan every time he got hit).

** Appears to be as a result of a variation of VillainForgotToLevelGrind (or rather, Villain Miscalculated How Much Level Grinding He Needed). He'd been studying Goku's fights ever since he defeated the Red Ribbon Army, calculated the progression of his power, and calibrated himself and 19 to be strong enough to defeat him. Unfortunately, he completely missed the events on Namek, and as a result has no idea what a Super Saiyan is. Oops.
