CAN YOU SMELL WHAT BARDOCK IS COOKIN
THE MAN!
The Father of the Hero of The UniverseThe Warrior Cursed with Knowledge of His and His People’s Doomed FateThe No-Bullshit Saiyan SoldierB A R D O C KI love this manly man. His OVA special is one of the best in all of Dragon Ball as it told a story of a man who enjoyed his job as a destroyer and ravager of planets and people but loved his home and his friends enough to rebel against THE ENTIRE GALACTIC EMPIRE!
He sadly lost royally as was the fate of Planet Vegeta and it’s inhabitants but his impact was felt as his last stand probably shook Frieza a little bit (even if the little shit didn’t show it)
He was a great contrast to his second son and look-a-like Goku in that he was not a saint by any means. He was a guy who fucked shit up and for the most part enjoyed it along with having a cold one with the boys (+ Fasha/Selypa) and didn’t care about being the strongest there was or a protector of the people
Although he’d go through a bit of character development due to his encounter with the future-seeing race he is still someone willing to wreck everybody’s shit
…And then Dragon Ball Minus happened and it gave him some more…humanistic qualities as well as giving us sweet, lovely Gine and honestly…I don’t really have a problem with it. Just more disjointed lore in a large disjointed universe.
And no I was not a fan of the newer special that made him the OG super saiyan for some reason
BUT BARDOCK IS STIILL THE MAN AND YOU SHOULD WATCH HIS OVA SPECIAL AND HAVE THE JOY OF PLAYING AS HIM IN SEVERAL GAMES
ALSO HERE IS HIS THEME SONG! ROCK OUT TO IT!!!
That’s all I got, shoutout to @ambitiousbard and his love for this wacky series
