Gale's Analysis: Frieza: Evolution of Pure Evil

To those who don’t know, Frieza is one of the most iconic villains in all of anime.

To give some brief background to the few that never heard of him.

Frieza is the Galactic tyrant, basically the emperor of Universe 7, and said to be the evilest villain in all of Dragonball canon.

Frieza is a cut above the rest in terms of villains. Mainly for 3 key reasons.

1. Frieza is naturally powerful, he was born with the power and in the Namek saga, has never trained a day in his life.

2. Frieza is established as successful. His frieza force are feared throughout the universe, even the galactic patrol doesn’t mess with him.

3. He is fully aware he is evil and LOVES EVERY second of it.

Most anime villains have some sort of backstory that made them evil, Frieza doesn’t. He was born powerful and believes EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE is beneath him.

In the show, people would be mortified at the thought of getting on his bad side. With the introduction of power levels in Dragonball, Frieza’s final form was so powerful, the system was basically thrown out immediately after his second transformation.

Frieza was established less of a character and more of a Force of Pure Evil.

At his introduction. Frieza was the antithesis of Goku.

Goku, born with a power level of 2, trained tirelessly and scraped by just to rise up and meet every challenge he faced.

Frieza, born with an ungodly amount of natural power that the only two beings his father told him to watch out for were Majin buu, a magical cosmic threat that killed the Kai’s (basically creator deities) and Beerus, the god of destruction.

Frieza knew he was hot s*** but he was also cautious, killing the saiyans after hearing about their legend of the Super saiyan, and super saiyan god. Resulting in him GENOCIDING most of them by blowing up their planet.

Frieza was never meant to be redeemable, he was the dark opposite of Goku. Which also made him an excellent foil and villain.

Frieza was so powerful, Goku needed to achieve a legend in order to fight him EVENLY!

Not surpass him, MATCH

Many Dragonball Z fans will forget that Frieza was still not at full power when fighting super saiyan Goku. It’s only when reaching 100% that the fight really begins.

But this is where the beauty of Frieza’s defeat comes in. Frieza never trained to utilize his power, so he never mastered his full power and as a result, his stamina drained quickly, allowing Goku to get ahead and frieza to resort to cheap tricks, which backfired. Frieza may have been gifted but his talent meant nothing as he didn’t work hard.

The decline and Fall of Frieza in this

Frieza eventually finds himself cut in half by his own attack on a dying world, begging for energy from his opponent. Goku, despite EVERYTHING, gives it to him. And Frieza then does what you would expect, tries to kill him only to be blasted back and left for dead.

Funny enough Frieza does survive, gets turned into a cyborg and goes to earth to get revenge.

Only for another golden warrior to appear and

And so ends the reign of Frieza, killed by the super saiyan legend he tried to prevent, sliced, diced and killed by a warrior he never knew of. And used as a stepping stone to show how powerful the NEW villains will be.

And overtime, frieza was only mentioned as a measuring stick, maybe some filler episodes or movies. But for DBZ. That was it.

“But Gale,” I hear you call. “How does this relate to your title “Evolution of Pure Evil”?”

Well my astute and very attractive Reader.

That’s where the sequel series Dragon Ball Super comes in.

During this new series, Frieza’s empire is in shambles with him gone, so Sorbet (the current head of the empire) decides to revive him. To establish order.

And sure enough, thanks to the dragon balls, Frieza is revived

In which he then kills a few guards and realizes he is rusty for being dead for so long.

Frieza is caught up with the situation and found out Goku killed Majin Buu and fought Beerus.

This is where Frieza makes a shocking declaration. He will train for 4 months and fight him.

Now this sounds ridiculous at first glance. Especially to those familar with the series. We know how powerful Goku is now. Frieza was basically as strong as Goten or Trunks (who were kids). Goku would one hit KO him. How could he close the gap in four months?

And this is where we remember, Frieza STARTED out with his current power. He never trained to attain it. He was always this freakishly powerful. Gohan, Goku, Vegeta, everyone had to train and fight impossible odds to reach his power. So now, Frieza was going to train with his potential.

And 4 months pass, Frieza shows up, and his power is massive.

Even Gohan, who despite not training was still the strongest on earth, nearly died facing Frieza in his restricted first form. (He killed piccolo who sacrificed himself to save him)

And when Goku and Vegeta arrived. Goku fought him evenly, until Frieza revealed his Evolution

A form he attained through training, choosing the color as a means of Mocking the super saiyan transformation that killed him in the past, and a way of showing everyone he was back on top.

And sure enough he was stronger than Goku, but there was a flaw, Frieza failed to realize he didn’t master the form, his stamina drained too quickly, something that Vegeta and Goku picked up on.

And the result was Frieza’s death once again.

Frieza learned the benefits of training, but he didn’t learn from his failures, something that Goku always did.

Though this isn’t the last time we see Frieza, he is called back. For Goku recruited him for the tournament of power. Where we learn Frieza learned Mental training in hell and learned to master control of his golden form

Frieza had learned another means of improvement, now being on par with Goku once again.

And in the tournament, Frieza faced many foes, defeating his universe 6 counterpart, and fighting with Goku to defeat the monsterous Jiren.

Frieza learned that the multiverse was more than he even knew.

In The movie, Dragonball Super: Broly. Frieza is looking for recruits as he realizes that no matter how strong he gets, Goku and Vegeta together can beat him. He needs an ally. Which is where we meet Broly.

And it should be noted that Frieza fought Broly for nearly an hour before Gogeta (fusion of Goku and Vegeta) appeared and put an end to broly’s rampage.

It was here that Frieza learned that there was more he needed to tip the balance back in his favor, if they have a way to fuse and become more powerful.

Now we arrive at the current time. In the manga, Frieza has returned. And he casually killed the villains of the saga with minimal effort, One of which had wished to be the STRONGEST in the universe.

And despite the best efforts of Vegeta and Goku (both of which had new forms/ techniques) couldn’t seem to put down. But Frieza did it with one hit.

Frieza tells the group he found a place where time flows differently (that’s right, he found a room of spirit and time) and stated he trained in that room for the equivalent of 10 YEARS.

Now if you do the math, Frieza after 4 months was able to catch up to Goku and Vegeta who were training with Whis. Imagine what 10 full years did to him?

And then, Frieza revealed his newest transformation

Black Frieza.

And after he transforms he does this

One shots BOTH his enemies.

Frieza was back.

And he learned from his mistakes. Frieza had become like Goku in a way. Training and achieving new power. A prodigy that learned to enjoy fighting.

Frieza had learned to evolve because of Goku, Goku had showed Frieza how working hard and pushing limits allowed him to achieve great power. Frieza was changed by Goku. But unlike Vegeta and piccolo.

This change was for the worse. Frieza fell hard and kept failing only to come back and show everyone why HE is the emperor of the universe, becoming arguably the most powerful villain in all of Dragonball once again.

Pure Evil is back on top. No complex motivations, no desires of changing the world. Just a very evil man with a ton of power and LEARNED from its mistakes.

In another anime, one punch man, there is a villain that wanted to be Absolute Evil.

Frieza, is that pure Absolute evil, and loving every second of it

But Yamcha wouldnt like that though. So how are you going to exact your revenge?

Oh, I needn’t kill them to enact my vengeance. Have some imagination! Without Goku and company around, I’d have little impetus to become stronger; the game would end and there would be no target to chase. I want to keep up our cat and mouse routine for a while.

This in mind, revenge will come differently than my younger self imagined. I’ll humiliate them so thoroughly and devastatingly that they’ll want to die—that they’ll finally get a taste of the agony I endured all those years ago. Then, when they’re sobbing and begging for mercy, I’ll let them go and lick their wounds, so that they’ll regain their strength twofold and I’ll be forced to follow suit.

They’ll struggle against me in utter futility until I decide to grant them a glimmer of hope by feigning my own defeat; then I’ll resurface to strip it away and make them miserable all over again.

Yes, I have a whole routine planned. I’m very much looking forward to it, you see.
