i am never not thinking about freeza trying to win vegeta's loyalty back by offering him goku's kill shot and when vegeta's like 'eh pass sorry' he really says 'fine how bout this and a promotion'

that will never not be the funniest thing to me

#between that and vegeta's 'so much for the 'my dears'' in the namek saga like askldjlaskj he was so obviously freeza's favorite #like freeza's favorite dog to be sure but freeza favorite none the less #i am also constantly thinking about how it seems/seemed to me that toriyama was setting freeza up for a redemption arc by making beerus #do all the things freeza did but with complete moral neutrality #and then showing us more of freeza's personality and insecurities #and even in z reminding us that freeza also did not have a say in what he did with his life he was also isolated and appointed to a mafia #and has no real friends or family just a legion of what Vegeta calls sycophants #and i am so so so curious about what the plan with that was because of db's overarching themes of redemption #and highlighting that vegeta's biggest issue with freeza (in the manga) is that he destroyed his planet -- and then having beerus reveal #to vegeta that he gave freeza the greenlight for it and vegeta still working with beerus afterwards even though he's furious to learn that #and like all of that combined with freeza being like 'hey i know i murdered you but come work with me again' and geets being like #'lol damn that's actually a really good deal but unfortunately i have to beat the brakes off you for personal reasons'#just makes me very Chinhands about where that was going for freeza's character arc #i used to hAte freeza growing up but 1) Again he is much better in the manga and 2) Super really decided to flesh him out more which is fun
