What do you expect from Broly?
Do you think he will become as relevant as Beerus, maybe even third main Saiyan of the future content...?
Or is his fate to just, well, just be around, without it meaning anything?

Re: What do you expect from Broly?
The movie' ending suggest Goku wanted to continue sparring with Broly. An assumption is that they become friends, with Goku taking on a mentor role. Their training would be a build-up towards a potential re-match. It also creates the opportunity for Beerus/Whis to visit them on Vampa.
Broly is a fan-favourite character so it is likely he'll return. The character really needs to be fleshed out more however.

I expect him to continue living on his planet he so loves.
Re: What do you expect from Broly?
I don’t see the point of making a canon and good version (as opposed to his 1993 evil version) of the character if it’s just to let him rot in Vampa. So I think they will use him sooner or later in the story, as "the third main saiyan" indeed, since Gohan can no longer fill that role.
I doubt he will be as strong as Goku or Vegeta though. They will probably surpass him for good at some point, which will make him less relevant than the other two.

Re: What do you expect from Broly?
He's not gonna be the most relevant character in the crew. He'll show up every now and then, I think, but not all that often, since I don't think Toriyama/Toyotaro/Toei want to have Broly be used as a crutch whenever things get rough for the main heroes.
If you're familiar with Broly MADs, aka Japanese Broly memes, Toei may be interested in using Broly like those videos do; use him as the main character in gag-oriented filler episodes if the Super anime returns. I'd personally be okay with that approach, though the anime returning is a definite "if" at the moment.

Are you talking about 1993 Broly ? Because I personally hate this Broly and find the new one much more interesting.It_Is_Ayna_You_Flips wrote: ↑Mon Jan 06, 2020 4:11 pm Ideally more clapping buttcheeks gifs

Re: What do you expect from Broly?
Just the early stuff in general. We're so far gone from Eastern mysticism and wuxia pastiche things are starting to look like a mid 2000s playbypost dragonball rpg board. Which is fine (I was part of those rpg boards) but it's so weird trying to pitch the current stuff to people who didn't become superfans back in the day.
"Wait, who's Broly?"
"He's the Legendary Super Saiyan."
"So... he has a tail?"
"Ha! Oh god no. Tails haven't been a thing in years."
"Oh... is Tenshinhan still around? He was pretty hot."
"Yeah he was part of a multiverse tournament where he got clowned by Roshi."
"Roshi's fighting again? And he's stronger than Tenshinhan? Didn;t he pass on the torch or something?"
"Yeah but that generation of fighters aside of Goku turned out to be a joke so he started training again."
"Tenshinhan's a joke????"

I guess he will get the Mr. Boo treatment and will help once in a while when his power is required.

Re: What do you expect from Broly?
Gohan has long been established as an unreliable fighter. He's barely a step up from the human jobbers at this point.

Re: What do you expect from Broly?
I expect Broli to be a good boy all the men-loving-people among the fandom to fawn over. At the very least, I think Broli will find Baa again and have a reunion. I think he and Cheelai will have kids and we might see Broli fight alongside Gokuu and friends. I wanna see Broli smile!

Re: What do you expect from Broly?
Technically, yes. But it's becoming sillier and sillier since the guy never trains to get stronger while the enemies are stronger in each arc. It will make much more sense to eventually rely on Broly instead, since he's a pure blooded saiyan (which means he probably likes to fight) and he's way stronger than Gohan.
Re: What do you expect from Broly?
How is he a "step up from the human jobbers" when he's on the level of the god tier fighters now? Toyotarou in particular seems to have kept him training throughout so it's certainly rash to say he's been "wasted" and should just sit on the sideline. That's not his character. He recently showed up just minutes after Piccolo was attacked to save him and fight Moro's men. He'll fight to protect regardless.It_Is_Ayna_You_Flips wrote: ↑Mon Jan 06, 2020 8:59 pmGohan has long been established as an unreliable fighter.

He's been training since Resurrection F in the anime and since the Trunks arc in the manga version.Surai wrote: ↑Mon Jan 06, 2020 10:20 pmTechnically, yes.

Re: What do you expect from Broly?
Yes, Gohan is probably the most moral character in DB. Unfortunately he's also depicted as afraid of violence, likeliest to abandon training, and as far too normal a person for the world of dragon ball. I wish that weren't the case. Gohan was my favorite character when I was a teen. But the story is what it is. And it doesn't make sense to keep bringing Gohan back when alternatives exist.

Re: What do you expect from Broly?
And yet it was the manga which made him ridiculously overpowered. Keeping in shape is still training regardless. He said he was going to do that and he is/has with the results putting him on the god levels without the need for god ki. That's all there is to it.

Re: What do you expect from Broly?
More than any other character Gohan balks at going all out. Even when his back is against the wall and he's watching people dropping, he needs to be psyched up to actually go do something. Maybe it's not fear of violence. Maybe it's something else. But whatever the cause Gohan is consistently depicted as an unreliable fighter unable to set aside his own feelings towards fighting to actually stay useful beyond a few chapters of each arc.
