Even if Freeza had finished his transformation and reached his second form, it only takes 20 Saiyans with a power level of 5.000 (and 50.000 in their Oozaru forms) to reach a collective power level of 1 million using their Oozaru forms.

So, its only natural that Freeza was killed in these circumstances. He would need his third or final form to resist them.

Freeza's still alive! I know it!

Rule of Dragonball: Think that your opponent is weak enough to defeat them with one blast, but he/she will emerge unharmed from the attack (Usually comes from the shadows of the smokey aftermath).

Freeza will probably finish his transformation just in time to be relatively unharmed by the attack. Besides, didn't Bardock from this universe in the main story say something about "the Saiyans' rebellion against Freeza failed?" So even if Bardock individually survives, transforms, and defeats Freeza, I don't think the Ozaru army here is going to survive in the end, much less succeed in taking out Freeza right here.

... Poor Zarbon, though.

This is why the Dragonball rule applies. Freeza is not dead!

Yup. Which is why the insane power level nerf was completely pointless and unnecessary. These new events are perfectly believable even using the original numbers. I don't get why Salagir felt the need to play games with them.

We know that enough Saiyans have to survive in order to lose to Raichi. And since Bardock told Raditz "if you had thought of this in our universe (referring to the eye lamp) we would have won against Raichi" that seems to imply there were more than a handful of Saiyans at the time.

Plus, realistically, there are only a couple pages left in the chapter. So this is probably the end for Freeza.

What an anti-climactic end for Freeza. THere's not even a worthy battle with him! Why in all the new Dragonball stories Freeza always looks like a dumb wimp? If he was then he would never be a leader of a universal organization of tyranny! I smell BS around the DB universe these days...

Well, maybe it was to out rule the fact that he could have possibly survived? It's not like they threw all their energy out with that blast, they probably reserved some of it.

I guess it doesn't matter. I'm just glad this chapter is finally over.

... You already have a universe where Freeza and his family are the strongest. You want another universe where he rules it all because...?

Ah. I'm pretty sure that's the line I was thinking of, but for some reason I thought it was Freeza, not Raichi.

Well, then... poor Freeza.

No, but gosh, did I love that fight!

Even so, Freeza is still weak in comparison with all the power ups given to everybody else. Videl got a stronger power up and Freeza, Cold, etc. all stay weak.

They don't know he can transform. They can't sense energy. Their scouters don't fit. They can't see him either. So why would they wait for something they don't know is happening? Judge rules this as no rule broken! lol

Freeza and his family don't ever train. Why should they be more powerful?

And besides that, Freeza and Cold are actually improved in DBM, since Freeza is stated to be able to control his final form (aka without needing reduction forms) and Cold is actually much stronger than his sons and also able to control himself. All this without any justification why. And you still want more...

Well, even so, they are nothing in comparison to many of the other characters. I guess I'm just nitpicking but I don't see reason to have certain characters get powered up a lot, and others get no treatment whatsoever. Sure Cold is buffered up but Freeza is not. I can tell you once we get to Goku vs Freeza (whenever that will be :roll: ) Goku is gonna wipe the floor with him, and it will be anticlimactic. Here we have super buffed up Bardock, who gets the SSJ treatment and whatnot! God, why is everybody SSJ? It's be a SSJ or suffer the fate of being a weak super villain. There's no contest and that irks me!

Freeza was a big deal in his arc, but after that he was a complete joke. That's shonen for you.
I'm re-watching Dragon Ball GT in full on my blog. Check it out if you're interested in my thoughts on the series as I watch through it!

James Teal (Animerica 1996) wrote:When you think about it, there are a number of similarities between the Chinese-inspired Son Goku and that most American of superhero icons, Superman. Both are aliens sent to Earth shortly after birth to escape the destruction of their homeworlds; both possess super-strength, flight, super-speed, heightened senses and the ability to cast energy blasts. But the crucial difference between them lies not only in how they view the world, but in how the world views them.

Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter. The more down-to-earth Goku has no illusions about being responsible for maintaining social order, or for setting some kind of moral example for the entire world. Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.
