One hilarious update is for Bulma, who is collecting the Dragon Balls and ends up setting the entire plot of the film in motion. But what was she going to wish for?
Warning! Spoilers for Dragon Ball Super: Broly below.
When it’s revealed that Freeza stole six of the Dragon Balls from Bulma’s house in order to wish for an equally hilarious and vain thing, Goku asks what Bulma was gathering them for in the first place. It turns out she wanted to wish to look five years younger. When asked why she wouldn’t ask for a bigger age difference, like a whole ten years for example, she argued that it would be too noticeable.
She wanted only five years taken off of her because if she did a full ten then the other women would notice right away. She would be accused of getting a surgery, and thus wants to wish for five so it can look as natural as possible. Hilariously, this coincides with Freeza’s wish as well. He wanted to wish for five additional centimeters added on to his height, and anything more than that would be far too noticeable and unnatural.
These wishes are not the most ridiculous ones mentioned in the franchise, but they hilariously have such narrow scope for the major plot that starts because of the Dragon Balls. Because once Freeza comes to Earth in search of the final Dragon Balls, the fight with Broly begins.
Dragon Ball Super: Broly is now open in theaters worldwide, and has already gone on to have a bigger lifetime gross than Dragonball: Evolution. Funimation brought the film to the United States on January 16, and tickets for the film are now on sale. You can read ComicBook.com’s spoiler-free review of the film here, and Dragon Ball Super: Broly is described as such:
“A planet destroyed, a powerful race reduced to nothing. After the devastation of Planet Vegeta, three Saiyans were scattered among the stars, destined for different fates. While two found a home on Earth, the third was raised with a burning desire for vengeance and developed an unbelievable power. And the time for revenge has come. Destinies collide in a battle that will shake the universe to its very core! Goku is back to training hard so he can face the most powerful foes the universes have to offer, and Vegeta is keeping up right beside him. But when they suddenly find themselves against an unknown Saiyan, they discover a terrible, destructive force. Locked into battle with the formidable Broly, Goku and Vegeta face their most dangerous opponent yet!”
