Broly is indeed loved in the west more than he’s loved in the east.
Congratulations, we played ourselves.
Maybe We Should Give Broly A Chance?
But letโs be real here, a reboot is a reboot.

The way I see it, the likeliness of this Broly having an absolute garbage story in this movie compared to his non canon counterpart is pretty damn low.
Toriyama is onboard this time around, have faith you cornballs
Not Everyone is a Fan of Broly Officially Being in Dragon Ball Canon
