When I was watching DBZ as a kid, I never saw this, so I never knew what the big grudge between Frieza and the Saiyans was about. This, uh, qualifies to hold a grudge, I think. Yet another 90s anime, but at least this time Frieza has the decency to start cackling from the word "go" as his big fiery orb comes forth. It's quick and snappy in how it blows through not just the planet's staunchest defenders but winds up pulling an Exterminatus on the planet itself. That being said... it's just a big orange energy orb. There's no dramatic tension with it, no real insight on how Frieza is going this, and the way it blows up the planet isn't clear at all; I'd rather have seen it cause a massive extinction event a la "giant meteor" than blow the world to bits. However, the sheer ease with which it crushes and burns the mightiest of flesh, bone, and stone is undeniable and satisfying in a morbid way. --- E come vivo? Vivo! ... Copied to Clipboard! |
