"DO IT, BROLY!!" |
Paragus (パラガス Paragasu) is the tertiary antagonist in Dragon Ball Super: Broly.
He is referred to as Paragus: BR (パラガス: BR Paragasu: BR)[3] in some media to differentiate him from the original incarnation of Paragus.
Overview
Creation and Concept
Paragus is based off the original Paragus from Dragon Ball Z: Broly - The Legendary Super Saiyan. In his newer incarnation, Paragus appears to be much older than his original counterpart in the present day. However, Paragus’ design from forty years ago appears to be based off the design of the original present day Paragus.
Appearance
Paragus in Broly
Like his alternate counterpart, Paragus is a tall and well-muscled Saiyan. However, Paragus appears much different than his counterpart. He is considerably older, having noticeable wrinkles with fair-skin and gray hair while sporting a full beard. He wears a dark purple jumpsuit with a light purple robes flowing around his waist, white gloves and boots, and dons a new model Frieza Force armor that is white with green abdomen and shoulderpads. He also keeps his tail hanging loosely under his cloth and is shown wearing a mechanical belt, which is implied to contain an important secret.[4]
Personality
In Broly, he is noted to possess a certain ambition while accompanying his son Broly.[4] That ambition is revealed to be revenge on King Vegeta. He also stated that he would raise his son into the ultimate warrior, then he would have his revenge. Just like his counterpart he has little regard for the lives of others. But, he does care about his son as he chose to remove Broly's tail due to feeling that Broly couldn't control the form very well and sought him out on Planet Vampa intending to take him to a more hospitable world and he praised Broly for slaying a lot of mites when he found him showing pride in him. He taught his son manners too to a certain extent, reminding him to say 'thank you'. However, he sabotaged Broly’s very first friendship to force him into training since he was obsessed with getting revenge on King Vegeta for his betrayal. He also regarded Cheelai as a bad influence on his son and told her to stay away from him.
Paragus also showed despair when it seemed Broly was losing and when he realized that he couldn't control him anymore. He also seems to fear that Broly might kill him in one of his fits of rage.
Biography
Background
Paragus was a loyal military lieutenant of King Vegeta, until he was blessed with a son who had potential even greater than King Vegeta's son Prince Vegeta. However, King Vegeta became jealous of his potential, so he sent Broly to an outlying planet in a Saiyan space pod, and a furious Paragus betrayed King Vegeta and sought out his son to save him. Along with Beets, Paragus searched for his son on the stormy planet, Vampa, but they crash their ship and learned of the dangerous creatures that lived on the planet's surface. When Paragus and Beets finally found Broly and attempt to leave the planet, they realize the ship was beyond repair, leaving them marooned. To preserve their food supply, he kills Beets with a Ray Gun. He would then spend his efforts on training Broly into becoming the ultimate warrior.
He would also remove Broly's tail at some point because Broly could not control himself when he transformed, and he was too dangerous.
Broly

However, he would consistently be shocked at Vegeta and Goku's immense power, startled at Vegeta's Super Saiyan transformation and expressing hopelessness at seeing Super Saiyan Blue Goku overpower Broly in his Wrathful state. Paragus started to think that King Vegeta might have been right about Broly being a threat to the universe. He was later executed by Frieza via Death Beam in order to trigger Broly's Super Saiyan transformation.
