Freeza would break that shit just like Vegeta did. He's too inhumanly greedy to take somebody else's orders.

Freeza wont even lick Vegeta's feet in terms of Pride and willpower . Hence , Freeza breaksdown in tough situations .

Re: Why didn't Babidi enslave Freeza?
Maybe because he was already dead? Kaioshin didn't know about Dabra either so it's not a strech to assume that he would get Freeza next if he didn't already have Dabra.

Re: Why didn't Babidi enslave Freeza?
Freeza has never given up. Even when the earthlings were driving him to the brink of insanity, he never actually gave up. He's one of the only characters who was truly capable of going toe-to-toe with Goku in a knock-down, drag-out, bloody brutal battle of wills, with a missing limb (his tail) and while puking out blood. Not for a moment did Freeza ever want to quit. It got to the point where Goku himself had to stop the fight, because despite being vastly outclassed, Freeza refused to.DSB wrote:Freeza wont even lick Vegeta's feet in terms of Pride and willpower .

Babidi probably never found Frieza, and if he did, Frieza's willpower would have been too strong.

He probably had Dabra, Yakon and Pui Pui on his side while Freeza was still around. He didn't really need him.

Re: Why didn't Babidi enslave Freeza?
Because if there's anyone more prideful and never gives up than Vegeta. It's Freeza. I imagine that Babidi would have consistently flooded him with mind control but Freeza just walked through it like it was nothing

Re: Why didn't Babidi enslave Freeza?
The universe is big. Most likely he literally never heard of Freeza, who despite all his posturing is just a particularly powerful space pirate.

Oh, and he can survive in the vacuum of space. All this stuff is just presented as the way Freeza is, without even an attempt at rationalizing it, yet the tone dictates we're supposed to take all this silly grasping at straws as thrilling danger. So I guess I don't really take the power inflation in the Boo arc seriously, but I don't take the power inflation in earlier arcs seriously either, so there's no net loss of seriousness. I think a silly story presented as serious is harder to accept than a silly story presented as silly.

AND the 4th most Powerful Mortal in Universe 7 after Buu , Dabura and Yakon . What's your point ???

Of course, him being the most powerful would actually be functionally irrelevant when talking about how easy he would be to find.
My point is simply. SPACE. IS. BIG. Freeza could have come into contact with literally hundreds of thousands of planets (I don't think he did, but let's be generous) and still not even be close to being known by a fraction of a percent of the planets in his galaxy. Much less the universe. He's big in his backyard, but most people would literally have never heard of him.What's your point ???
Ever hear of the Mass Effect series? It makes a good point about how big even one galaxy is, much less the hundreds of billions of galaxies in the observable universe. The various spacefaring species there consist of collectively trillions of individuals inhabiting a galactic community of tens of thousands of planets... and it's explicitly stated that they could never hope to explore 1% of the galaxy's stars in any timeframe that would be relevant to anyone alive at the time, and that the space between a relative few planets scattered throughout the galaxy is a complete unknown. It's said that there could be another galactic community on the scale of their's in the same galaxy, and they just never noticed each other.
Space is big.

Agreed. Freeza is too tough mentally to be taken into control.

As the penguin singer in the Champa Saga sang: "THE UNIVERSE IS BIG!". It's stated in the anime that Babidi set a course to Earth once he detected high power levels that were enough to revive Majin Buu, probably referring to the Cell Games.

Vegeta begged, and cried from Freeza. Even the most prideful have their most shameful moments.DBZAOTA482 wrote:Freeza begged for Goku to spare his life.

Yeah, they do, but in case of freeza it was pure cunning strategy, he attacked Goku even with his last energy

I made a bet with Alee9977 that Vegeta won't be beaten quickly by an opponent. If I lose, I switch my avatar to Vegeta getting beat by hit. If I win, he switches it to Vegeta holding Black by his hair. This will last a month.

Re: Why didn't Babidi enslave Freeza?
Vegeta wasn't begging for forgiveness or mercy like Freeza.... in fact, he cried because of his shattered pride.
