Dragon Ball: Who Could Broly Fuse With?

Highlights

Fusion in Dragon Ball creates stronger warriors with merged personalities, making for unique characters.
Broly could potentially fuse with Gohan due to parallels in their character arcs and potential for rivalry.
Future Trunks is a less likely fusion candidate for Broly due to power differences and living in a different timeline.

As a long-time Dragon Ball fan and avid gamer, I’ve always been intrigued by the concept of fusion in this iconic anime series. The way two powerful warriors come together to form an even stronger being with unique characteristics is simply fascinating.

In the beloved Dragon Ball series, the combination of two powerful warriors through fusion has been a fan favorite. This merging process results in a new entity that surpasses the strength of its individual components. Moreover, the merged beings’ personalities are intricately intertwined, giving birth to a distinct character with unique thoughts, emotions, and goals.

Goku and Vegeta have regularly combined their powers in “Dragon Ball” via the Fusion Dance or the Potara Earrings. The resulting fusions from both techniques are evenly matched in power and combat skills. However, their personalities undergo significant changes during fusion, which has left fans eager to witness Broly undergo a similar process. In this article, we will explore potential fusion partners for Broly!

Goku or Vegeta

Broly’s potential fusion with one of his mentors

After the occurrences in the “Dragon Ball Super: Broly” film, Broly has become a member of the Z-Fighters and is being tutored by Goku and Vegeta, the only other Saiyans he’s acquainted with. Consequently, it’s understandable that he would opt to merge with one of them. Their connection is renowned, and their comparative power levels are close.

We’re warriors, Kakarot, not ballerinas!

Though a Potara Fusion with Goku or Vegeta is scarcely possible, as they’re reluctant to undergo it and only consider it when faced with an overpowering enemy. Furthermore, such a fusion wouldn’t align thematically well because both characters are on parallel paths to growth. In contrast, Broly might find it difficult to perform a Potara Fusion effectively since neither Goku nor Vegeta are his adversaries, thus denying the potential benefits of a Rival Boost from the fusion.

Son Gohan

The Most Likely Candidate

An intriguing possibility arises if the plot of the story were to evolve and require a new fusion besides Gogeta or Vegito. The potential candidates for this fusion could include Gohan and Broly, given their striking similarities and overlapping traits. These parallels may have been subtly foreshadowed in the latest manga chapter of Dragon Ball Super (Chapter 103: A Legacy Toward The Future).

In this chapter, we witness the initial encounter between Gohan and Broly, each revealing their most powerful transformations akin to Goku and Vegeta’s strongest forms. Gazing at Gohan’s Beast form ignited an obsession within Broly, ultimately enabling him to master his strength and unveil his new, fully-realized Super Saiyan transformation.

There’s something about Gohan and Broly that makes me think they’re related in some way. And I must admit, Broly certainly has a beast-like quality to him, don’t you agree?

Broly’s obsession with Gohan’s power brought out his hidden abilities, indicating a possible future rivalry between them. This rivalry might mirror the one between Goku and Vegeta, where they both strive for strength, inspiring each other to reach new heights. Such a development would be beneficial for their individual storylines and ideal for the Potara Fusion’s Rival Boost!

Both Broly and Gohan share the commonality of being strong Saiyan warriors with immense potential. They’ve been mentored by Goku and Vegeta, and neither has experienced a fusion yet. Thus, a fusion between these two powerful characters makes perfect sense for their individual storylines to progress.

Future Trunks

Another possible candidate

Although not the first choice that comes to mind, Future Trunks is another potential candidate for Broly to merge with. At first, Trunks appears weaker than the other Saiyans. However, he possesses a hidden ability: his Super Saiyan Rage transformation. This transformation significantly increases his strength and brings him close to Goku and Vegeta’s power levels. For instance, he managed to destroy Merged Zamasu’s body.

You should know that a weapon doesn’t make a man!

Future Trunks is considered part of the newer crop of Saiyans including Gohan and Broly. He might engage in rivalries with these characters to drive himself to greater strength. Yet, it’s unlikely for such a situation to unfold with Future Trunks given the significant power difference and the fact that he currently resides in another timeline, possibly growing tired of battles.

Dragon Ball can be streamed on Crunchyroll.
