The twentieth Dragon Ball movie received its first major trailer at San Diego Comic-Con, and with it, we learned about its titular villain, Broly. This isn’t the same Broly we’ve grown to love over the years. Dragon Ball Super: Broly puts a whole new spin on his character, his origins, and actually makes him part of the Dragon Ball canon. With that in mind, let’s dive into who this new Broly could be, and what his reintroduction could mean for Dragon Ball Super.
Broly is, without question, one of the most intimidating characters in Dragon Ball, and that doesn’t appear to be changing with this new movie. The trailer makes it clear that his height and incredible bulkiness have returned in full force as we see him dwarf both Vegeta and Frieza in his Legendary Super Saiyan form. It’s this absurdity in his size that has made him such a memorable villain over the years. While some villains might be smart, conniving, or have limitless energy, Broly is simply a monster. He manhandles his opponents, tossing them around and crushing them with his incredible might and size.
