I was expecting exactly this answer.

I will not say much, just: Vegeta was revived as if he were a good guy after years of genocide, including a recent mass murdering of many Namekuseijins in Freeza's saga.

But I wasn't expecting you to put words on my fingers which I didn't type... I didn't say Bardock is a good guy. But I say now Bardock is in fact an anti-hero.

I didn't put any words in your fingers, you said that Bardock wasn't always a bad guy & that he redeemed himself after going against Freeza. What he did was a good thing, but he didn't do it because he had regretted his evil actions or anything. He still killed innocents from countless planets, and did that with a big pleasure. He didn't go against Freeza because he didn't like his job. It's like saying that the Nazis where good guys that redeemed themselves because they fought & died to protect their country...

Bardock was an anti-hero, but that doesn't mean he wasn't evil.

Vegeta is a very different case. He had changed over the 7 years, and he had regretted his past actions by the end of Boo arc.
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.

By that logic, Hitler was a good guy because he was fighting for his country.

Bardock never regretted his actions, which are, multiple genocides for decades. Just because he fought for his planet doesn't make him a good guy.
Hitler was a good guy to the German people and had he won WWII the histroy books would have said he was a good guy. DBZ is so not black and white we it comes to characters you could argue Goku is an anti hero/anti villain.

Go tell any German today that Hitler was a hero to the German people. Go on, I dare you.

Of course no one is going to say that now but when he was first rising up and taking back land you don't think they thought he was a good guy. A hero only has to look good in the eyes of those he is appeasing to which is why I brought up Hitler. With Bardock he is defending himself, his family and his planet from the much more villainous Frieza which makes Bardock a hero.

A lot of them really didn't. I suggest you learn more about history before you say stuff like that.

Anyway, this is off-topic.

Was he called "Hitler" in Japan? Or was it just "The Dictator?"

Pretty sure it was the latter, but there's no denying who he was totally meant to look like. :P I dunno how accurate a guess it is, but I always just assumed the whole scene was kind of one they had to dance around a little bit. I mean, they were poking fun at Hitler in something like DBZ, soon top of making it over-the-top and not really calling him by that name, the entire segment is animated using a lot thicker lines than usual.

Your going to tell someone with a major in history to learn about history, thanks for the advice but here's some to you. Next time leave the extra attitude off and let's all talk like we have common sense.

As someone who is a good portion of the way through his doctorate, and is currently teaching the exact era of history we are talking about at a university? Yeah, I will tell you that you're wrong.

Now I suggest you quit dragging this off-topic.

Well, I don't remember a character being introduced after the mission has already started. But it's okay. I am actually excited to see how they handled Freeza's alternative fourth form besides just images.

A question: Is Freeza's alternative fourth form a new character or is it treated as a transformation?

And could someone find a larger version of this image, please?

He wasn't considered a hero by the majority of the populace like you said, no.

It happens all the time. Most recently last set with Mira's boss mission.

I can't tell. But it's seems to be a transformation he's capable of accessing at will in the film, so I see no reason for it not to be a transformation of Freeza: Resurrection.
