I can't wait for someone to mod in a shot of Goku and Frieza teaming up from the Tournament of Power to replace the vision of them facing off on Namek in the Bardock's death dramatic finish.

wild mass guessMovie 20 is about the great-grandson of Yamoshi coming back. He's angry that Freeza was revived, and thinks that the Saiyans of Earth have betrayed the Saiyans of the past by letting him live. The movie ends with Goku and Freeza putting aside their differences, telling this Saiyan that he needs to stop living in the past, and fusing into Goreeza to fight and defeat him.wild mass guess

Is Beerus rewarding Frieza Honor Before Reason or is he just too lazy to think of the consequences?

I mean, they had him do the Tsundere head turn where he didn't want anyone to think he did something nice for someone. Pretty sure it was just because he thought Frieza earned it.

It's an amazing thing where almost every new bit of Bardock is worse than the bit before

He's practically a one man continuous shark jump

Him turning into a super saiyan and killing Freeza is somehow dumber than him going back in time and becoming the legendary super saiyan

It's a mystery that it is but there we go

Part of the appeal of Bardock is the tragic inevitability of his last days I think

He's an actual monster but he tries his hardest to save his monster race and kill Freeza before Freeza could kill them

And of course he failed. The power gulf is ridiculous. Also he's doomed by canon. Vegeta blows up, Freeza keeps Freezaing, and eventually Goku decks him in the schnozz on Namek

Him going back in time and becoming a super saiyan is stupid but there's a sense of self fulfilling prophecy there. The legend of the super saiyan exists because Freeza blew up Vegeta because of the legend of the super saiyan

And anyway killing Chilled doesn't stop Freeza from blowing up Vegeta in the future. It's catharsis but Bardock is still a fucking failure

It's not like Bardock killing Freeza in a video game is even that heinous but it's pretty dumb hyping the cool character while missing why the character became popular

If these shadows have offended just think this and all be mended, just my own personal take on this

Its a non-canon Finisher built purely for fan-service.

I fail to see how this is so awful.

Its just a little fun like Yamcha killing Nappa.

Just pointing out that I don't think Super Saiyan Bardock could have made Freeza's Final Form Balls tingle, never mind killing him.

I think it kinda does considering that special finish is not canon and just an extra like the one with Yamcha.

I kind of agree with Bocaj as far as Bardock travelling through time to become the legendary Super Saiyan isn't that dumb (compared to other non-canon stuff in Dragon Ball).

I think if he had somehow survived the destruction of the planet, he would have Zenkai'ed enough to become a Super Saiyan.

But the time travel is illogical bullshit.

Still seeing him mop the floor with Chilled was pretty enjoyable.

Look, I'm tolerant of a lot this series` bullshit. But Bardock travelling through time and becoming the first Super Saiyan is one of the dumbest things I've seen in fiction.
