Was Hirudegarn really evil?
Could it have become good like Godzilla and King Kong?
I think they were really mean to it. Just started beating it up for no reason. Of course Hirudegarn had to defend itself.
IMO, it just needed a friend to tell it "NO" in a polite manner.

Re: Was Hirudegarn really evil?
Did Hirudegarn try to senselessly destroy and kill everything and everyone his path whenever he was set free? Last time I watched the movie, that was the case. So yeah, Hirudegarn is evil.

Re: Was Hirudegarn really evil?
Isn't it said that, that the statue it came from was evil. Hence its a being of...evil?

I think he just needed a hug and a hot cup of cocoa.

Hirudegarn is not Bambi or Godzilla. He is a being created for the sole purpose of destruction.fadeddreams5 wrote:Who's to say he wasn't confused over his unfamiliar surroundings?

Android 17 and 18 were created and programmed to kill Goku, but they have not done so.Lord Beerus wrote:Hirudegarn is not Bambi or Godzilla.

Zero from Mega Man was also created for destruction, but he's now the future's greatest hero!
Hirudegarn is just misunderstood cause he came from an evil statue.

Re: Was Hirudegarn really evil?
While there probably is that remote possibility that Hirudegarn could be tamed, given his massive power, it may have been an exceptionally risky endeavor to try and reason with the monster. Additionally, given this track record of destruction, it wouldn't surprise me if he was seeded with some form of instinctual maliciousness.fadeddreams5 wrote:Android 17 and 18 were created and programmed to kill Goku, but they have not done so.

Although unlikely, the only way I could see this partially working is if they exhausted the monster to the brink of death.
The androids were a bit different because I believe they were still subtly influenced by their former human emotions deeply embedded within.
Re: Was Hirudegarn really evil?
He's evil in the way that some animals are when they kill for sport and not food. He has no concept of morality, just like an animal.

Re: Was Hirudegarn really evil?
We're explicitly told that Boo was created "pure evil" and was "evil itself", yet thanks to absorptions and reincarnation we end up with not one, but two good versions of the character. So it seems the sky's the limit when it comes to characters turning over a new leaf.

Re: Was Hirudegarn really evil?
I never really thought of it this way. I think all Hirudegarn knows is to destroy and such but I believe it's possible he could be tamed differently.
(Fanfiction link coming soon.)
Re: Was Hirudegarn really evil?
Hirudegarn is a copy of Buu, a dark wizard creates a indestructible demon that for some reason absorb evil in the universe, so yeah is very evil, if for some reason a being really good are absorbed by Hirudegan maybe he can become good like Buu but no Supreme good absorbed, no good demon possible.

Re: Was Hirudegarn really evil?
I think the Kaioshins just said that because he killed most of them and murdered so many people, so they would naturally call him evil, having never experienced his 'good' side.Herms wrote:We're explicitly told that Boo was created "pure evil" and was "evil itself", yet thanks to absorptions and reincarnation we end up with not one, but two good versions of the character.

Re: Was Hirudegarn really evil?
Yes, he's an evil statue...with a transformation.
He also gets really mad when Goku tells him to attack seriously, so he definitely has a nasty attitude.

Hirudegarn has pride. Vegeta would also get mad if someone told him that. Hell, even Goku got pissed off when Beerus taunted him.Super Saiyan Turlast x4 wrote:Yes, he's an evil statue...with a transformation.
