it perfectly fits his narcissistic personality. The original frieza wanted immortality so that he could rule forever he did not want strength because he thought of himself as the strongest creature in creation (acknowledge Beerus did not exist, and Freeza did not know of him at the time) Frieza character was so masterful written that he is still consistent in the "being 5cm taller" wish because you logically could attach him making that wish after being immortal. remember Frieza pointed out that he didnt want his change in size to be dramatic meaning he is/was willing make several 5cm taller wishes over a very long span of time.

@Chrai0n

He also knows that his wish can be easily undone since there are a lot of people with access to Dragon Balls. :) Back on Planet Namek he thought it's undisputedly the most strongest being in the universe by far (except Beerus and maybe Majin Buu) without the knowledge of the other versions of Dragon Balls. He would have first somehow find a way to wipe a lot of characters first before being able to wish immortality or else it would be meaningless. Besides, I think he likes all of the fighting and competition.

Yeah but my problem isn’t necessarily with Joker but Batman. Everyone knows Batman won’t kill and Batman still gives him the benefit of a doubt and Joker knows and uses that. The joker literally has no consequences because Batman is too much of a good guy to change him. Even bad people have to be out down in society today with lethal injection for the good of the public because otherwise all these sociopaths would be given the treatment as joker only for them to keep doing the same thing. Batman doesn’t want to kill Joker for himself not necessarily for the public. It’s literally a selfish desire so he doesn’t break a rule he won’t cross. But it’s not smart, it doesn’t even make sense. Just kill him and many problems will be solved. Obviously new issues would rise but there’s plenty of other villains to keep Batman busy. All Batman ever does is send his villains to the Arkham asylum but they all literally break out, leave, or just simply walk over the asylum to the point that it’s not even a useful place. I’m not saying he should just kill everyone but he can kill Joker because Joker is a straight psychotic maniac that cannot be Frieza. Technically the same is happening with Frieda but Goku is always there to stop him and so are gods so Frieza actually has to be careful unlike Joker who ,again, has literally no consequences even with other heroes being there

The fact is there are some people who are bad and will always be bad. They may not have been born that way, but they made choices that led them to this life of villainy. That's the way the real world works too as seen with various dictators, murderers, criminals, and monsters throughout history. You don't always need a sympathetic or complicated villain with a relatable philosophy. The best explanation is often the simplest one and the simple fact is some people are evil and they like it that way.

That was a terrible portrayal of batman and joker, the best portrayals are the golden age rebirth and frank miller. Frieza and Goku are more similar to Superman and Darkseid kinda similar to their classic versions from the older versions.

I can't express my gratitude towards you Mark, for creating these amazing videos showcasing the deeper meaning of the franchise we love, without caring about recognition of your work, but by doing it for yourself and for fun. For us as well xD

Now he got that tragic backstory.

Not only that but frieza is the first one to put fear in goku’s heart in dbz. There was a scene where goku actually hesitated to attack when he had an opening because of friezas power

I love Frieza, never hated a character so much like him but I love his ruthlessness. I hope he never turns good or morally grey!

Also, just because a character doesn't make an entire 180 in terms of alignment doesn't mean they can't or don't develop. Despite Frieza being evil from the moment we first see him up until now doesn't mean he never changed. In fact, he has changed a lot, and that's demonstrated in the video. Notice how at the beginning, Frieza is incredibly cocky and uses brute force to get whatever he wants. In Super, Frieza has toned down his cockiness quite a lot as his defeat at the hands of Goku, Toppo, Broly and even seeing what Beerus and Zeno are capable of has forced Frieza to adapt to the reality that he is indeed not the single most powerful being in the universe. He more often relies on manipulation now, which is why he wants Broly on his side so bad because he KNOWS he probably can't beat Goku 1v1 and certainly can't deal with Goku if Vegeta is there backing him up. To an extent, Frieza respects Goku. Not as a friend, but as a formidable adversary. He knows Goku isn't a pushover and that if he wants to ever defeat him, he's going to need all the help he can get. In Super, Frieza relies less on being a bully and more on his cunning and natural talent when it comes to manipulating those around him to get to his goals. Frieza didn't change sides, but he definitely developed as a character - so much that he was even willing to fight alongside the one person he hates more than anyone in existence as long as it meant he could be brought back to life.

Damn if that ain't true

A lot of people are under the notion that sympathetic villains are more "Realistic". I'm a school teacher and I firmly disagree with that. Freeza grew up raised by king Cold and was told he could do whatever he liked to the planets they conquered. I have personally met my fair share of little ingrates who adore the idea of being above their fellow classmates so much and then lash out in anger or even violence when challenged, corrected, or asked to do something they don't want to do because at home they get what they want. They're not dumb. In fact some are quite talented in certain areas. This is just how they think of the world around them. Meanwhile some writers just slap on a sob story where this one time before they became villains they had a really bad day and now they believe they are justified at giving other people really bad days. Sometimes that's written well other times it feels like the writer is just tacking something on. I think one of the best examples of this is comparing Disney's 1991 Gaston to their 2017 Gaston. In the animated one the town loved how talented and handsome a hunter he was and spoiled him with praise and that's why he felt he was entitled to the woman he thought was hot. In the live action one they bring up how he survived a war and that maybe he struggles with keeping violent tendencies in check sometimes and it doesn't really go anywhere. It's just added on.

Yeah, totally. Freeza is raised to be a brat with no empathy. I was very happy that the new movie (Brolyl opens up to this why Freeza is the emperor and his father isn't. Its not that Cold Can't be the emperor, or Freeza usurped him. It's just that Cold WANTS to sit back in retirement and watch his merciless offspring make the shots. Because he has raised a powerful and unempathetic person. Not once in any movie or the series is it shown that Freeza disrespects or acts up to his father. In fact he obeys him, although he could probably and easily kill him. So there is Something there. I think it's the appreciation for his position, his bloodline and the the understanding of the contempt thwy both have for other races and weaker beings. His father allowed him to be this way.

In a way he resembles a doomsday from superman, a worthy opponent, but hardly the source of evil who wrought or summoned it. Not a bad villain by any means, but nowhere near the figure that freeza represents.

I’m going to use all your videos when anyone says “DBZ is just fighting and screaming”

That being said, Frieza himself is one of the most wicked and despicable characters in all of the series, Frieza seems to have be made with the intention of being as hated and despicable as possible. which is especially notable when you consider the two largest threats after him, Cell and Majin Buu, were literally made to be evil, and yet Frieza manages to be as cruel and heartless , if not more, then they are. Frieza is a sadistic, depraved tyrannical genocidal dictator and tyrant who loves to inflict pain and suffering on others (children included), and while most villains usually have some form of he continuously refuses to be redeemed is also Ungrateful Bastard even when given mercy And unlike irredeemable main villains like King Piccolo, Cell and Super Buu, he doesn't even have the excuse of being born evil. He's this in-universe, as practically everyone who knows about him despises him in fact This become more interesting to note since Frieza is everything Zamasu claimed evil and repulsive of mortals frieza represented everything that Zamasu hate about mortals

I find it rather amusing that Zamasu would point to Frieza and say "This is everything wrong with mortals." and I suspect Frieza's reply would be to name Zamasu as everything wrong with the Gods in turn... then list off a bunch of accurate descriptors for Frieza himself as his reasoning.

Honestly when I first heard Freeza would be coming back for the Tournament I was like "Ew why??" but ever since his resurrection I've been more and more on board with his involvement and character changes in the story.

Love coming back to these videos. An unsympathetic villain I immediately enjoyed was All for One. The way he conducts himself and uses others is a lot like Frieza. He carries every scene he is in.

Frankly, the more we learn of Saiyans, the more Frieza seems totally justified in wiping them out. If he ever wanted a stable Empire, these savage, warmongering nutjobs couldn't be allowed to exist.

There are wiser ways to do that. But then, Frieza's biggest weakness isn't even his arrogance, it's his inability to foresee and believe in personal consequences to his actions. When he destroyed Vegeta, he didn't follow through. When he went to earth for revenge, he didn't bring overwhelming force. When he was resurrected, he didn't do anything to gauge Goku's strength to determine if he had overwhelming force yet. I'm willing to bet this same mistake screws him in the Broly matter (haven't seen it yet) since it's a pattern of his.

Somehow I'm more sympathetic to Freeza more than I'll ever be for Toei

Love your videos, and I love to add that both of these characters, who have contrasting influence over others, ultimately caused them to influence one another over the course of SUPER. Frieza realising he could reach new heights in terms of power(Golden Frieza) and Goku in becoming more of deviant or schemer (bribing Frieza to join his team & persuading Zeno to start universal tournament) sparked and threatened the fate of not one universe but 12! a literal paradox founded solely by their characters it really does shape their world!

I really miss classic villains like Freeza. Despite what I say in one of my video series, I do enjoy tragic villains and sympathetic ones such as Ardyn Izunia but feel they have become the norm and oversaturated. I think they need. Villains who are plain evil can be just as interesting characters, they just need a colorful personality sometimes.

Mark gets the vid back from demonetization. What a legend

One of the few videos not taken by Toei that is based on DBZ, let's hope it stays this way and we even get the others back. I and many others support you Mark.

8:48 "TRUE CHARACTER is revealed in the choices a human being makes under pressure - the greater the pressure, the deeper the revelation, the truer the choice to the character's essential nature." Robert McKee

I really think it's because Freeza doesn't have some tragic backstory or isn't written to be someone that I'm supposed to empathize with, that I can actually enjoy him. He truly believes that he is the top of the mountain, the peak of all mortal life. Everything he does is to obtain or maintain that belief. As such, everyone else are just insects. Some are useful while others are there to be used and discarded. But even he has brief moments that make him relatable. Like explaining what his wish is in the Broly movie. He's sensitive about that fact that he's short. How many short people wish a magical dragon could make them a little taller? And yet, even in this, he's still Freeza. If anything, through his time in the franchise he's learned to be more patient. Notice that he doesn't go back on his word and directly attack Earth. He has Broly to do it for him and when that fails, he doesn't throw a fit or try to blow up the earth. He leaves to bide his time. And yet, we know someday he'll return to try and get revenge once more. Freeza is one of the best things to come out of the Dragon Ball franchise.

You noticed too! I agree it is fits perfectly.

Story-wise, putting 17 and Frieza together multiple times in the TOP when things were super intense was a stroke of genius. 17 had become the perfect example of the way interaction with Goku makes a character better. He has the same hero mentality Goku has, but he’s more intelligent and logical, and therefore likely less repulsive to someone like Frieza. Like you said, Frieza is the perfect example of someone who doesn’t change as a result of his interaction with Goku. In fact, he despises him more and more and even spurns Goku’s trust because of his naivety. But 17 is just like Goku, only more relatable to Frieza. Because of this, I think 17 was the most influential person to him in this whole arc. He gave a realistic representation of what it looks like to have been a villain who can change. 17 also is one of the only characters who doesn’t judge Frieza (likely because he has had no prior experience with him). I think that goes a long way in influencing someone’s character for the better too. I would argue that even though Frieza has seemingly reverted to his old ways, his interactions with 17 and Goku have begun to change him. It’ll be interesting if this gets explored over time, like it was with Vegeta back in the day.
