The movie does something with Broly that none of his non - canon photographic film have attempted with the character reference . Dragon Ball Super : Brolyturns him into a misunderstood character reference , and provides him with astuteness for the first time . It ’s clear thatDragon Ball Super ’s take on Broly is n’t evil , nor is he even a real villain . He ’s a humankind with a jolly impeccant nature whose immense big businessman is exploited by citizenry like his father and Frieza who seek to use him for force . At the oddment of the movie , Goku and Broly are no longer enemy , and Goku even expressed an interest group in spar with Broly in the future .

WhereDragon Ballgoes from here is n’t quite light , but the franchise isexpected to continue in the var. of a new movie , and possibly as a fresh gum anime series as well .
