| “ | Broly, the legend. And now he is free. Broken from my control, from anyone's control. He has become what I was honored and afraid he would become. The true Super Saiyan, a killing machine. He won't stop now. Not until he has destroyed this planet and the next. Until we reach our new home world. | „ |
| ~ Paragus, after Broly is unleashed. |
Paragas, or Paragus in the Funimation dub, is the secondary antagonist of the 8th Dragon Ball Z film Dragon Ball Z: Broly - The Legendary Super Saiyan.
He is the father of Broly, who was severely injured and cast out from the Saiyan Army by King Vegeta, out of fear of Broly's power. Surviving Frieza's genocide of the Saiyans, Paragus spent the following decades brainwashing Broly and building his own empire to exact revenge on the late king's son, Vegeta IV.
He was voiced by the late Iemasa Kayumi and Katsuhisa Hōki in the Japanese version, and by Dameon Clarke and Paul Bandey in the English version.
History[]
Backstory[]
King Vegeta ordered the death of Broly when he was only infant, fearing that he would one day betray them.
When Paragus asked the king to reconsider, Vegeta blasted him for his defiance. Broly was later stabbed and he, along with his father, are thrown into junk yard to die. When Planet Vegeta was destroyed, Broly was able to protect them with an energy ball, allowing them to survive the explosion.
As Broly aged, Paragus began to see that maybe the King was right after Broly showed nothing but a love of destruction by constantly destroying planets and on one occasion took out Paragus' eye. After having a scientist construct a headband, Paragus used the mechanism to keep his son under control. Now having his obedience, he began to plot against the last surviving member of the Saiyan royal family, Prince Vegeta.
Broly - The Legendary Super Saiyan[]
In the movie which takes place during the 10 days before the Cell Games, Paragus has Broly destroy most of the South Galaxy before he approaches Vegeta, and requests that he come and be the ruler of New Vegeta, a planet for any Saiyans who survived Planet Vegeta's destruction. Paragus then tells him, in order to persuade him, that he needs his help fighting the Legendary Super Saiyan, who had been destroying planets in the South Galaxy. Vegeta agrees and Paragus invites Vegeta's son Trunks, as well because he is part the Saiyan royal family. With that, Vegeta leaves along with Trunkss Son Gohan, Trunks, Kuririn, Master Roshi, and Oolong.
Once on New Vegeta, Paragus tells them that there has been another attack by the Legendary Super Saiyan, and send Vegeta with Broly to investigate. When Son Goku arrives on the planet, Broly starts to go Super Saiyan, and Paragus uses a mind control device he placed on him as a teenager to get him back into check. Paragus then tells Goku of Broly's birth, and how he started out with a power level of 10,000, a level which is considered to be elite among adult Saiyans. Goku, who was in the bed next to Broly, constantly bullied him by crying, preventing him from sleeping and creating insanity in the newborn child.
Later, Broly attacks Goku once and is able to best the hero, forcing him to flee. Goku then realizes that it was Broly who was the Legendary Super Saiyan all along. Paragus tried to lie but Trunks and the slaves expose him. He admits his lie while revealing that he wants to make him and his son the rulers of the universe, using Earth as their home planet before Broly transforms into super saiyan. Vegeta tries to fight Broly, but after not even scratching him, the Saiyan prince resorts his most powerful attack, the Big Bang Attack, and Broly, though unscratched, breaks free of his father's control. Broly fully transformed attacks Goku and Gohan, while Trunks goes to help. Having seen his full power, Vegeta is left speechless and Paragus noted it only makes sense he would be before he gave Broly's story and noted he is now a killing machine. Paragus voiced his great pride in his son while watching him fight the super saiyan Goku, Trunks, and Gohan while greatly overwhelming them.
Much later, Paragus tries to escape the planet, knowing that a meteor would soon hit. He lamented that Broly, who was now on rampage, would be killed in the process. However, Broly appears on the scene and questioned his father on where he was going. Terrified, Paragus lied that he was preparing the pod but Broly saw through his deceit and crushes his escape pod. In his final moments, Paragus noted he was killed by his son who was once saved before Broly tosses the pod into the meteor, killing his father.
Fusion Reborn[]
Paragus' cameo.
Paragas later returned as a cameo in the movie; Dragon Ball Z: Fusion Reborn. He appeared as one of the residents from Hell that invaded Earth. It is unknown what happened to him during the invasion, it is likely that he was killed by one of the Z Warriors, or escaped, seeing how he did not appear in the Super 17 Saga.
Dragon Ball Super Film[]
- Main article: Paragus (Dragon Ball Super)
An alternative universe version of Paragus appears in the Dragon Ball Super: Broly film as the secondary antagonist. This version of Paragus does not seem to be nearly as evil as his original counterpart. He is killed by Frieza.
Powers and Abilities[]
Like nearly ever villain in the Dragon Ball Series, Paragas can fly, and generate ki blasts. His most powerful ki blast is called the Dead Punisher; a short ranged ki blast that can kill anyone weak, like his servant Moah.
