Hold on, why would Freeza want to revive Broly?

[up][up][up]As I explained on the previoust post, the rumours say he does so to make Broly kill Beerus (since he has a recording of Beerus ordering him to destroy Planet Vegeta). And with that, Frieza is free to become a God of Destruction.

Holy shit Broly is the Darth Maul of Dragon Ball.

Only more controversial & divisive.

Well, this was certainly unexpected.

Yannow what? I kinda want to see what Toriyama would actually do with Broly.

As am I. Who knows, this could be an inverse of DB Minus and actually improve his character a bit. This is only the second time Toriyama has dealt with a character not initially made by him after all. Maybe he'll do better this time.

That's right. Rob's being optimistic (if naively so). Y'all can start panicking now. I'll just sit back and enjoy your turmoil..evil grin

There just... aren't enough words for how dumbtacular and terrible all of this is.

Like, if Freeza has to wish Broly back, that means the movie is canon. How? Why? In what way?!

[up]x4: Toriyama's implying that he's rebooting the character, starting from scratch, so it's not even the same Broly from the Z movies.

I went ahead and watched the movies from back then, and I felt this could be quite interesting once I rearrange some things. I got right to work trying my hand at a story that incorporates him into the Dragon Ball Super series.

While keeping in mind Broly's classic image so as not to disappoint his fans, I updated him and added a new side to his character, and I think this has resulted in a more fascinating Broly.

Naturally you’ll get to see fierce combat, but also, the paths of destiny that lead to an encounter between Goku, Vegeta, and Broly. It also involves the Frieza Force and the history of the Saiyans, which end up having a major connection to everything. The story content turns out to be very large-scale and dramatic.

I'll just wait until the San Diego Comic Con trailer comes out. I think some parts of the fanbase have knee-jerked quite a bit in the past over similar things (Freeza replacing Buu in the TOP, for instance, which was also a Toriyama decision).

[down]Never denied that. Honestly, this is no different from Western media doing the same to long-running characters. YMMV and all...

Doesn't matter, he's a canon version of Broly.

Seeing the reaction on Twitter to Broly coming back has been... interesting. XD

The spoilers that leaked Broly being the villain showed him frozen in ice. None of the previous movies are canon; it seems Broly was an ancient saiyan that got frozen since he couldn't be defeated, and Frieza somehow gets that knowledge (with a wish probably) and unfreezes Broly.

Maybe this could be a good thing, if they give him an actual character other screaming Goku's name every 5 seconds.
