Dragon Ball Z vs Dragon Ball Super. The Legendary Super Saiyan Broly, two interpretations of the Legend Freeza feared, the ultimate Saiyan Rival and Goku and Vegeta. Will Classic DBZ's Broly prove he's still top dog, or has the new come to stomp out the old?
Interlude[]
Cue Invader - Jim Johnson https://youtu.be/92H3Mscg7QQ
Scythe: The Saiyan Race has always had proud, mighty warriors of great power. But these two are known for having Legendary power.
Soul: The original Broly from Dragon Ball Z Movies 8 and 10!
Scythe: And the new Broly who debuted in Dragon Ball Super: Broly. For this fight we are ONLY looking at their feats within their theatrically released movies.
Soul: Basically Z-Broly isn't getting Super Saiyan 3 from Raging Blast 2. He's Scythe and I'm Soul.
Scythe: And it's our job the analyze their weapons, armor, and skills to find out who would win a Death Battle.
Broly (DBZ)[]
Scythe: Born the son of the Saiyan Paragus, Broly-
Soul: Oh I get it, Asparagus and Broccoli, haha. Saiyans and their puns.
Scythe: ...Broly was born with a power level of Ten Thousand. Despite how obviously useful this would be to the Saiyans, King Vegeta chose to have Paragus and Broly executed and thrown off like trash.
Broly (Z): Background[]
- Name: Broly
- Height: 7'7"
- The Legendary Super Saiyan
- Wears a crown to restrict his power (though it was destroyed)
Soul: Broly however, wasn't going to die so easily. Despite being like...10 months old, and having been stabbed in the stomach and Paragus shot through the chest, Broly was able to form a shield with his ki and save them both.
Scythe: Broly and Paragus would spend thirty years on distant planets training. Naturally as a Saiyan, Broly possesses enough Ki Control to fly as hypersonic speeds and fire blasts of energy.
Broly (Z): Techniques[]
- Flight
- Ki Blasts
- Body Smash
- Bone Crusher
- Powered Shell
- Eraser Cannon
- Eraser Blow
- Trap Shooter
- Blaster Meteor
- Gigantic Hammer
- Omega Blaster
- Gigantic Planet End
Soul: Broly's got several attacks that use his ki for powerful energy attacks, like Powered Shell, Eraser Cannon, the Trap Shooter, Blaster Meteor, or the Omega Blaster, and destroy entire planets with the Gigantic Planet End.
Scythe: His physical strength, despite a scrawny appearance, is also rather notable. His attacks like Body Smash, Bone Crusher, and Gigantic Hammer are rather note worthy for their raw power. Broly's power level is absurd, going past all define limits. See, Broly's Ki naturally rises as battles go on, even if he's not doing anything. This power ultimately manifested alongside a childhood trauma let to him manifesting the form of Super Saiyan.
Broly (Z): Super Saiyan[]
- 50X Full Power of Base form
- Boosts strength, speed, Ki Output
- Drains Ki to sustain
- Enhanced versions of the form:
- Legendary Super Saiyan
- God Broly
Soul: As a Super Saiyan, Broly's power grows exponentially. He was strong enough to destroy an entire Galaxy as just a Super Saiyan!
Scythe: But Broly's power could not be limited in just one transformation, and thus he evolved into the Legendary Super Saiyan. In this form Broly's body grows to accommodate his new power. His bigger, faster, stronger. He's sadistic and psychotic, and powerful enough to walk through Goku, Vegeta, Gohan, Cell, and Trunks right before the Cell Games.
Soul: He would later return 7 years later...to get walloped by Gohan, Goten, and Trunks, and then family Kamehameha'd into the fucking sun! Which still didn't kill him, as he returned years later yet again after the defeat of Goku Black to become: Broly God.
Scythe: How Broly achieved this ridiculous form is never explained, nor why it's power is enough to rival Super Saiyan Blue Goku. It just...is...(Annoyed Sigh)...but he eventually was destroyed for good by Goku's Full Power God Kamehameha.
Broly (Z): Feats and Faults[]
- +Destroyed South Galaxy as a regular Super Saiya
- +Broke from Paragus's mind control
- +Tossed around Goku, Vegeta, and Gohan multiple times
- +Cheated Death Twice
- -Power can overflow, proving detrimental
- -Fighting style lacks training
- Mostly just slams into opponents and hurls Ki Blasts
- -Cares only about killing Goku
- Often to the point of obsession and insanity
Soul: Broly may have ever-raising power, but it comes with one major downside: it raises at a level higher than Broly's body can handle, and will eventually cause his body to starts breaking down if he doesn't start dispensing energy.
Scythe: Broly's fighting style also lacks finesse or proper martial arts training. He just slams his body or ki blasts at whatever he's fighting waiting for it to die. However, his greatest weakness is his psychotic obsession with Goku. See, in the maternity ward as babies Broly and Goku where right next to each other, and Goku was crying.
Soul: ...and?
Scythe: That's it. He cried. For like...three hours. And it's THAT hatred for crying Goku that unlocked Broly's Super Saiyan powers.
Soul: But...that's so dumb...but he's so cool! BUT THAT'S SO GOD DAMN DUMB!!!
Broly (DBS)[]
Scythe: Let's flash back, all the way back to the early eras of Saiyan history, when Broly had just been born. This time, instead of being almost killed, Broly and Paragus where exiled to the planet Vampa.
Soul: And Vampa is a shothole. No water, giant bug creatures, nearly inhospitable. Man, it's a wonder Broly survived!
Broly (Super): Background[]
- Name: Broly
- Height: 7'7"
- The Exiled Saiyan Warrior
- Collar around his neck shocks to control him (But was destroyed)
Scythe: That was, until Freeza Force Members Cheelai and Lemo landed on the planet and saved Broly and Paragus, bringing them to Freeza himself.
Soul: Where everyone's favorite galactic emperor instantly turned around and made Broly go fight Goku and Vegeta. Not like he didn't have the power to do it though.
Broly (Super): Techniques[]
- Flight
- Ki Blasts
- Gigantic Charge
- Gigantic Rage
- Powered Shell
- Eraser Cannon
- Wrathful Charge
- Eraser Blow
- Saiyan Blaster
- Gigantic Cluster
- Gigantic Omegastorm
- Gigantic Breath
- Gigantic Roar
- Gigantic Catasrophe
- Planet Crusher
Soul: Broly has a wide assortment of different Ki techniques. He an charge at you fast enough to break your rib-cage with the Gigantic Charge, slam you into the ground like your Loki with the Gigantic Rage, blast you into oblivion with Eraser Canon, Powered Shell, and Gigantic Cluster.
Scythe: He can spew energy blasts from his mouth and hands for powerful attacks that could annihilate planets. And, much like his original counterpart, this new Broly seems to constantly grow in power as he fights. Although this is less due to infinitely raising power and more because he's a natural warrior and a quick study, in Vegeta's own words, learning as he fights. This lead to him harnessing a Saiyan's primal power to form an all new transformation.
Broly (Super): Transformations[]
- Wrath State
- Harnesses Oozaru (Great Ape) power in human form
- Likely about 10x Base form
- Super Saiyan
- 50x Full power fo Wrath State
- Boosts strength, speed, ki output
- Drains ki to sustain
- Full Power Super Saiyan
Scythe: The "Wrath State" if you will harness's the power of the Saiyan Oozaru for a, likely, times ten power boost. This form is powerful, but does cause Broly to enter a state of berserker's rage, granting incredible power at the cost of self-control. However, when Broly seemed to be against the wall, Freeza fired a blast straight through Paragus's chest, killing him instantly, but causing Broly to transform into the legend, the Super Saiyan.
Broly: As a Super Saiyan Broly could keep with Super Saiyan Blue Goku and Vegeta, and throw Golden Freeza around for an entire hour, even proving a match for Gogeta! And when his power reaches it's limits, he becomes a Full Power Super Saiyan, which looks suspiciously like the old Legendary form. Either way, Broly is STRONG!
Broly (Super): Feats and Faults[]
- +Defeated several monsters as a baby
- +Potential growth in battle is immense
- +Outgrew and overpowered Vegeta and Goku
- +Defeated Freeza
- +Proved a match to Super Saiyan Gogeta
- -Tends to loose control the stronger he gets
- -Minimal training
- -The Vic lawsuit stuff
- To be fair, he is now Johnny Yong Bosch. If that's an upgrade or downgrade, you decide.
Scythe: Broly's ability to grow and learn is seemingly limitless. He was able to outgrow Vegeta and Goku mid battle, threw around Freeza for an hour, and match'd Gogeta...until he went blue. Still, his Beserker's Rage can be a legitimate problem and it probably what cost him against Gogeta.
Soul: Ya, well, thanks to Cheelai he's still alive and got room to grow as a character and warrior. What may be next for the Exiled Saiyan? Only time may tell.
Death Battle[]
Scythe: Alright the combatants are set, let's end this debate once and for all!
Soul: IT'S TIME FOR A DEATH BATTLE!!!!
((Earth - Capsule Corp))
Cue Dragon Ball Z: Legacy of Goku - Capsule Corp: https://youtu.be/3XeY94IjQf8
It was a peaceful day on earth, the sun shining overhead as Bulma checked something off a to-do list at Capsule Corporation. Looking up, Broly was, rather effortlessly, moving some heavy machinery around.
Bulma: Broly, you can set that down now. Thank you again for helping out.
Broly (DBS): Kakrot asked me to defend Earth. So I'll defend.
Broly sets down the machinery and walks over before looking into the sky as he felt something entering the planet's atmosphere. Bulma held a scanner, detecting the massive power level coming down.
Bulma: Broly...
Broly (DBS): I will go, you stay.
Turning, Broly powered up and flew out, blowing a hole in the roof as he did.
Bulma: ...Kami Damnit I just had that replaced.
((Earth - Gizzards Wastelands))
Cue Dragon Ball Z Kakarot - Impending Dread: https://youtu.be/HZjw0kzboow
The Broly of Dragon Ball Super flew out into a wasteland, looking around for the power he'd felt. Diving towards the ground, he lands down by a crater to see a Saiyan pod. The pod opened as a Saiyan walked over, revealing an overwhelming power emerging as the original Broly of Z stepped out and looked out at the other Saiyan.
Broly (DBZ): Where...am I? Where am I!?
Broly (DBS): You are on Earth. I am B-
Broly (DBZ): Earth? ...yes...yes! Kakarot! Where is Kakrot!?
Broly (DBS): Kakrot...isn't here-
The Super Broly suddenly goes flying back as he takes a punch from his original counterpart. Z Broly growls as he steps forwards.
Broly (DBZ): Kakarot lives on Earth. Kakarot is here! If Kakarot won't come fight me, then the bloodbath starts with his friends!
Cue Dragon Ball Z Kakarot - Contest of Rivals: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CBsJONc9O0k
BrolyZ charged forwards and drew his hand back, throwing a second punch as BrolyS got up and leaped past the attack, jumping ahead and throwing a kick at his counterpart's chest. BrolyZ roared and the two began trading punches before the original Z Broly charged an Eraser Cannon and fired it. Super Broly dodged to the side and lunged forwards with his Gigantic Charge, slamming his fist straight into BrolyZ's gut.
BrolyZ slid back, growling and raising his arms as his power flared up, and he transformed into a Super Saiyan before charging into Super Broly with Gigantic Hammer, grabbing his counterpart by the face and slamming him into the ground before kicking him into the air. BrolyZ flies forwards to grab him again when a pulse of energy emanates from BrolyS as his mussels bulk out, pupils turn yellow, and he roars out, entering his Wrath State.
Cue Dragon Ball FighterZ - Broly Theme: https://youtu.be/FvYU2T-i8hE
Both Broly's roared and clashed fists, sending a shockwave flying from the clash before entering a high-speed brawl, BrolyS Managing to grab his Z counterpart and headbutted him, then grabbed his leg and flew back down to the ground, smashing the Super Saiyan BrolyZ into the ground repeatedly before dragging him across the ground, throwing him out into the nearby mountain before charging his Eraser Cannon and hurling it forwards and causing it to explode.
Broly (DBS): Grrrrr...Get...off...Earth!
Staring into the explosion, BrolyS watched as BrolyZ emerged from the blast.
Broly (DBZ): Kakrot's friends are weak! If Kakrot does not arrive, I'll kill you all!
Broly (DBS): I...don't need Kakarot...to beat you!
BrolyZ charged ahead and slammed into his opponent, kicking BrolyS back before throwing out a Duel Eraser Cannon, blasting the Wrathful Saiyan back before barraging him with a Trap Shooter. BrolyS raised his arms to block the attacks before charging a beam up and firing a blast, but BrolyZ forms a barrier around himself that reflects the attack. BrolyS flies forwards, forming two ki-balls in his hands and charging ahead into BrolyZ, but the energy barrier stopped him as the original Broly placed his hand on BrolyS's chest and fired a ki blast to send him flying back.
BrolyZ then grabbed his opponents leg and flew up, then threw him back into the ground before forming his Omega Blaster, raising his hand and throwing it downwards. BrolyS raised his hands to stop it, pushing back against the blast with all his might.
Broly (DBZ): Struggle all you want, in the end, you'll still die!
Cue Dragon Ball FighterZ - Broly (DBS) Theme: https://youtu.be/cCHuqvfLeKc
BrolyS struggled, his feet digging up the ground as he held the energy blast back. He could feel his seemingly endless anger boiling up as he tried to control it. But this Saiyan was going to hurt everyone on Earth, and possibly even other worlds, to find Kakarot. BrolyS finally snapped, his yellow pupils turning green as his hair ignited in a golden flame as he charged through the air and exploded in energy, transforming into a Super Saiyan.
Broly (DBS): HIYAAAAAAAA!!!!!
BrolyZ didn't even get the chance to react as he was slammed into chest first, a blast of energy exploding and sending him back into the ground before BrolyS landed on him and repeatedly slammed his fists into the other Saiyan's face, beating his original counterpart as hard as he could.
However, something suddenly snapped inside BrolyZ. In the brief flashed he could see BrolyS's face, something stuck out to him. The hair. It looked familiar. Like...like...
Broly (DBZ): KAKAROOOOOOOOOT!!!!
A explosion of power sent BrolyS flying back, the exiled Saiyan watching as BrolyZ rose up, bulking out to match his expanded mussles as his hair turned green. The Legendary Super Saiyan had awoken. BrolyS knew this was bad. His grip on his self-control was fading by the second, and he needed to end this quickly, but this other Saiyan just kept bringing out more power.
Broly (DBZ): My power...is raising...it's overflowing!
Stretching his limbs out, BrolyZ send energy blasts flying out from all over his body, forming craters all over the wasteland ad BrolyS desperately dodged the blasts before flying forwards with Gigantic Charge, getting in close and shoving his fist into BrolyZ's chest before the two slammed their heads into each other before power began spewing from them, neither willing to give up the advantage.
Cue Dragon Ball Super Broly - Gogeta vs Broly: https://youtu.be/ErWQRyPiDck
Broly (DBS): Get...off...THIS PLANET!
An energy dome expanded out around BrolyS and sent BrolyZ back, the Legendary Super Saiyan laughing as he charged through a beam attack and punched BrolyS in the face with all his rage, sending him towards the ground before he charged in and body-slammed into him. Roaring, BrolyZ raised a hand to fire a Ki Blast when his counterpart released several energy blasts from his body much like he had, then firing them all at BrolyZ. The Legendary Super Saiyan raised his arms to block, taking the explosions head on.
BrolyS was ready to power down, but it still was not over. His eyes widened as he BrolyZ emerged, now enveloped in his God Form. Broly God laughed and flew ahead, kicking BrolyS into the air and flew up after him, landing several punches to his face before raising both hands and punching him straight into the ground.
Raising his arms, Broly God was ready to form the Gigantic Planet End, but the fight still had not ended! BrolyS finally snapped and powered up, his pupils vanished as he unleashed the strength of a Full Power Super Saiyan and charging forwards. Broly God laughed and threw the Gigantic Planet End forwards, BrolyS roaring and charging into it, pushing against the attack.
Broly God: If you just gave up, you wouldn't have to suffer!
Suddenly however, BrolyS charged through broke past the attack, roaring with all his might as he grabbed Broly God cupped his hands together, slamming him for the ground before flying down and landing on him, pulling him up only to then punch him backwards. Energy charged up in BrolyS, focusing into his mouth. A Gigantic Roar unleashed as he spewed an uncontrollable wave of energy from his mouth, tearing up the ground and hitting Broly God head on, incinerating him in seconds.
Broly God: No! Nooooo! I won't die...I will kill you someday...KAKAROOOOOOOOOT!!!-
When the attack finally died down, BrolyS was standing still, his body trembling. His pupuls returned as he powered down, returning to his base form. Broly fell to his knees and took a moment to catch his breath. As he did, one thing rung clear in his mind.
Broly (DBS): I am...The Legendary Super Saiyan.
Conclusion[]
Cue Dragon Ball Z - SSJ3 Power up: https://youtu.be/K61rG1hxBwA
Soul: IT'S OVER!! IT'S FINALLY OVER! WE NEVER HAVE TO HEAR ABOUT AGAIN!!!
Scythe: Indeed Soul. This was a surprisingly close match. The original Broly certainly was a more experienced fighter in his own right, and had a larger assortment of skills at his disposal, and his ever-raising ki. Hell, his Broly God Powers where even enough to make this a close fight in power.
Soul: But in the end, DBS Broly still surpassed far stronger iterations of Goku and Vegeta, making him leagues above his original counterpart. He was way faster and stronger, and his ability to adapt quickly meant even if ZBroly did get the upper hand, it wouldn't have lasted on.
Scythe: Even if we had used transformations outside of the movies, like SSJ3 and 4 ZBroly, the results would not have changed all that drastically, as they do not have the feats to support matching DBS Broly's power.
Soul: This fight went out with one Gigantic Roar.
Scythe: The winner is Dragon Ball Super Broly.
Next Time On Death Battle[]
"Mega...Merge!"
"Earth's defenders never surrender!"
