This also just reminded me of the time we had a 10 page derail in Negrotown about why black people like Saiyans and Vegeta in particular. It was good poo poo. I love blerds.

Which is why I was always perplexed by the lack of representation. MBJ would have made the Naruto run look amazing.

I mean if the deleted scenes / bloopers for BP aren’t just endless reels of MBJ nerding out and talking anime and poo poo then the production failed.

I think the sequel even opens with Gecko giving a speech to an auditorium full of people like "I guess the twenty years since I gave my 'greed is good' speech proved me right because the whole world agrees with me, I am a visionary" That was yeah

Idk if Frieza's forces were really white though. Recoome was. The majority of them were very colorful aliens. The Saiyans were definitely all white dudes though. They willingly worked for Frieza for a while before he whispered "No more Saiyans" and rewrote their reality.

Frieza's thing is also based on the idea of evil rich land developers screwing over people in the 80s.

I thought the Saiyans and the Tuffles were each from opposite sides of the same planet and the Saiyans killed all the Tuffles and stole all their technology.

Pretty sure that was filler that got retconned. Toriyama explicitly said in an interview that the Saiyans came to Plant and killed the Tuffles.

Frieza, a broker who forcibly takes over planets to resell them, was created around the time of the Japanese economic bubble and was inspired by real estate speculators, whom Toriyama called the "worst kind of people."[2] Toriyama purposely does not draw bad guys so unscrupulous that it affects one psychologically, although he admits Frieza is close. Therefore, he paid special attention to how Frieza spoke; because villans typically speak rudely, he gave him polite speech making for an unsettling contrast with his cruelty. From wiki. So frieza was never modeled after people

Author intent don't matter. My original post was about why black folks relate to Saiyans. If you don't get why we relate to an enslaved Prince who is all about "Saiyan Pride" idk what to tell you. If you want to try and tear it apart with dumb questionable canon to ruin the connection that black nerds have to that character, you should probably sit and think about why that is for a second. Also willing to bet a poo poo ton of Vegeta fans are hoteps and ankh niggas haha
