Why did being liked Ledgic not try to take over the Universe

Post by shonenhikada » Sun May 10, 2015 4:47 pm

If Freeza with his powers was basically ruler of the universe. Why didn't a being like Ledgic try to take over the universe/ and or kill the Kaioshins like Kid buu ?


He was as strong as Super Buu for god sakes.

Really tempted to say "Because GT", but he probably just doesn't like power. Otherwise, he'd of gone for being a conqueror of the universe, he's probably just interested in money and couldn't care less about having a throne to sit on and a crown on his head.

He was defeated rather easily by SSJ1 Kid Goku. I personally don't buy the "everyone in GT is so much stronger" claims.

Legic is nothing more then a thug for Don Kee. I don't think he wanted control of the galaxy or anything big. There's a alien that looks like Legic in the manga adaption of ROF, but I don't think it's Legic. It's likely just another alien that looks like him since we have aliens that look like Cui working for Freeza before.

He's a bodyguard that's looking for a challenge. Didn't really care much for taking over the universe.

Probably for the same reason why Shisami was able to beat Piccolo and still didn't do anything.

Just cause.

Ledgic was just a thug interested in fighting not really conquering anything.

Not sure about that, Goku wasn't really that strong yet, probably not even as a Super Saiyan 3.

As for the question, I agree with everyone else, I guess.

Just because an individual has the strength to doesn't mean they have the desire to. Those don't go hand in hand together.

Ledgic was well aware of the saiyans and their Super Saiyan abilities. Ledgic is strong, easily stronger than Base GT Goku (who is clearly beyond Blue Super Saiyan in GT), but he knew he would probably face HEAVY resistance and probably death if he attempted to rule with the saiyans alive.

Not only that, if he somehow knew of the saiyans, who knows what other powerful races in the universe he knew about that would give him trouble.

The Universe is a big place-The PTO were only prominent in one quarter of universe. If characters like Ledgic are running around, it would be in the Cold Families best interest to not try to start unnecessary battles where they could lose. If Ledgic was power hungry, the same would be the stated for him as well.

Same reason that the Z-Senshi didn't take over the universe.
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.

He came off more as a solo fighter / bodyguard type of character. What little bit of his character that was shown suggested traits not akin to those of a tyrannical leader. He just didn't seem to have the desire nor the authoritative capabilities and/or mindset to assemble an empire like Frieza's. To a certain extent, he probably could have gone on a rampage and taken over some planets through a solo effort, but he also didn't exactly come off as a merciless monster who thrives off of senseless destruction like Buu.

Ledgic strikes me as more of a hitman, than a ruler. Ledgic would never have agree to work for someone like Don Kia, who was pretty much a successful version of Pilaf, if he really wanted to become a universally revered figure.

Please tell me why Rild, the strongest person the GT trio had ran into at that point, is the first person noted to be stronger than Majin Buu if Ledgic and Luud are supposedly God tier and already stronger than Buu?

Because Ledgic wasn't in it for glory, fame, money or really any of that. He was a proud warrior looking for a challenger that could match or best him. Ledgic reminds me of a monster from Power Rangers Lost Galaxy, I forget his name but he was never really evil, he just wanted one last challenge in a 1v1 duel before he died. It's not about domination it's about testing your strength. I really wish we had more villains like Ledgic!

Plus that dub voice...I'd listen to him read a phonebook.
Going on hiatus. Too much stuff in RL to deal with for me to keep up with posts here for now. Was fun, hope you all have a nice day and future! Volt signing off.

Legic is alright, I hate his head design since it reminds me of Floop's Fooglies from Spy Kids. Not to mention for a pretty cool character, he was totally wasted since he was in one episode from what I can remember. He could have freshen out more in my opinion.

I thought he looks sort of like a Ferengi from Star Trek.
