Dragon Ball Wiki:Sandbox

Broly (ブロリー, Burorī, lit. "Broli") is the main antagonist of Dragon Ball Super: Broly.

He is referred to as Broly: BR (ブロリー: BR, Burorī: BR, lit. "Broli: BR")^[2] in some media to differentiate him from the original incarnation of Broly.

Overview

Creation and Concept

Broly is based off the original Broly from the Dragon Ball Z Broly film trilogy.

It was suggested to Akira Toriyama by his editor to have Broly appear in the movie due to his overwhelming popularity. After watching the previous Broly movies, Toriyama decided that Broly could be quite interesting if he rearranged some things about him.^[3] This incarnation of Broly is Toriyama's attempt to add him into the "Dragon Ball canon".^[4]

Appearance

In Dragon Ball Super: Broly, Broly's appearance differs from his alternate counterpart. While retaining the same height and black hairstyle, he has noticeably darker skin which seems to get lighter as he powers up and has a scar across his left cheek, left bicep, and an "X"-shaped scar on his left pectoral, which is his most notable feature^[5] and is fairly more muscular. His facial expression also appears more stern than in the original (where it appeared melancholic). His attire consists of purple skin-tight pants with white boots that have a yellow striping at the toes.

He also wears a green fur pelt draped around his waist and flows on the backside and blue wristbands. When wearing what appears to the latest model Frieza Force armor, he wears black boots with white borders and green-striped toes, black chest armor with a green mid-section and shoulder pads, and black armbands with white ridges. He also at some point has a mechanical necklace on his neck, which is implied to be tied to Paragus' belt (akin to the original's crown).^[5] As a child, he lets his tail hang out but as an adult, it was removed by Paragus.

Personality

While little is known about Broly's personality, it appears that he behaves in a far different manner than his alternate counterpart. While generally very stern in demeanor, Goku states that Broly isn't a bad guy, and Cheelai states that Broly isn't fighting because he wants to, instead was trained by his father and forced to fight out of revenge against King Vegeta. Similar to his counterpart, Broly sometimes goes berserk.

Biography

Background

Broly was born around the same time as Goku and Vegeta. He was violent and born with a power level of 10,000.^[6] He lived on Planet Vegeta until he was sent away to a frontier planet by the order of a jealous King Vegeta who didn't like that Broly had greater potential than his son, Prince Vegeta.

Power

Film and Manga

Broly is one of most powerful mortal warriors in Universe 7, alongside Goku, Vegeta, and Frieza. A child prodigy in combat and born with a power level of 10,000, he greatly outclassed the exceptional might of the royal family. To which, King Vegeta, insecure at the idea of a Saiyan not his kin having such natural power and potential growth, he banished Broly so as to not the young Saiyan outshine King Vegeta's own prodigious son.

Broly in his base state is initially at a disadvantage against base Vegeta, but as he continued to quickly adapt against the foe, his efficiency and raw strength quickly grew to pressure Super Saiyan Vegeta onto the defense, forcing him into Super Saiyan God where bas form Broly is totally outmatched. While transformed into his initial Wrathful form, he was able to take a punch to the face from Super Saiyan God Vegeta without flinching and was able to easily dominate Super Saiyan God Vegeta and later Goku in his base, Super Saiyan and Super Saiyan God form. While in his full Wrathful form, he was able to compete against Goku all the way up to Super Saiyan Blue. In his Super Saiyan form he is able to outmatch both Super Saiyan Blue Goku and Super Saiyan Blue Vegeta at the same time, and soon after hold the edge over Frieza in his final and Golden forms for a full hour - though he is unable to finish him off thanks to Whis stepping in out of curiosity about Broly's power. He is also unable to land a hit on Whis, who easily toys with him. He is able to fight base form Gogeta but Gogeta turns Super Saiyan and begins to dominate Broly until Broly turns into his Legendary Super Saiyan form. Gogeta instantly powers up to even higher level, Super Saiyan Blue, giving Broly no real chance of victory. Despite his best efforts, Broly was unable to touch Super Saiyan Blue Gogeta and is totally outclassed. Later on, Goku states the Broly might be even more powerful then Beerus.

In the manga, Super Saiyan C-type Broly is shown fighting Perfected Super Saiyan Blue Goku, while Vegeta in the same form prepares to attack Broly from behind.

Wrathful Broly was able to knock back Final Form Frieza with an Eraser Cannon.

Statements by guidebooks and authors
