Actually SH2 gave us the backstory to bardock: xeno and they went for more of a dragon ball minus feel than BTFOG, so unlike most versions of masked saiyan we know exactly how the events of this bardock’s life went down with the story even ending with the time kaioshin reuniting him with Gine https://youtu.be/DaD2vdkv-UkGrimlock wrote:I would say it's just Heroes being lazy here. I mean, mostly of Bardock's techniques uses the "Saiyan theme", whether being with his friends or an image of an Oozaru (I got the feeling that you can say his techniques are like "feel the power of Saiyans" and such). Surely they can come up with a lot of techniques using "Saiyan theme" instead of reusing old ones. This case is a bit odd because the Bardock who got that is Xeno Bardock, the one from another dimension, whose events might have been extremely different for all we know.Rakurai wrote:Interestingly enough, Bardock's attack is called "Rebellion Fang."
Anyway, speaking of techniques, Vegeta: BR got Super Big Bang Attack (despite his pose in the card being Galick Gun. Also, I think this is the first time Big Bang Attack gets a variation, at least in Heroes). Goku: BR got yet another new variation of God Kamehameha (there is a kanji between "Super" and "God Kamehameha", but I don't know what it means).
A main difference I would like to note is in this version of the story bardock faced off with frieza ON Planet Vegeta not in space
