Magnificent Bastard/Anime/Dragon Ball: Difference between revisions

* The version of Paragus, father of Broly from the now non-canonical 8th movie, is also a qualifier by virtue of being a persuasive manipulator ''and'' a [[Large Ham]] on top of it. After being stabbed and [[Left for Dead]] along with his infant son by King Vegeta out of fear for the latter's power, Paragus desired to take revenge through the King's son. To do this, he recruits the Shamosians to build an infrastructure on a planet on a collision course with a comet before arriving on Earth and offer Prince Vegeta a planet to rule over, purposely taking advantage of his egotistical personality. When his plans are inevitably exposed, Paragus does not descend into a [[Villainous Breakdown]] but rather freely confesses his plans and backstory to the Z-Fighters. Even though he did not intend to trigger Broly's transformation due to previously having wiped out the South Galaxy before, Paragus nevertheless showed pride in his son's strength while letting him kill the Z-Fighters for him. Paragus attempts to eliminate Vegeta not through brute strength but by knowledge and manipulations of the arrogant prince, managing this ''without'' having much power at all.
