Background / History

Frieza ruled as the self-styled Galactic Emperor through the Frieza Force, selling planets and exercising authority over vast territories. He considered his work legitimate because he served a God of Destruction, while others regarded him as a cold-blooded villain responsible for countless deaths. 46 85

After revealing his restrained power to King Vegeta, Frieza ordered the extermination of the Saiyans and personally destroyed Planet Vegeta. He eliminated fleeing survivors with Death Beams and acted directly to prevent any surviving Saiyan from becoming a future threat. 42 46

Rhode confronted Frieza during the destruction of Planet Vegeta. Rhode's Kamehameha forced Frieza to reveal his Final Form, but Frieza proved overwhelmingly stronger and attempted to recruit him. After Rhode refused, Frieza destroyed Planet Vegeta and continued pursuing surviving Saiyans. 44 45 46

Frieza later encountered Rhode and Aila again, having grown powerful enough to access a Masked Form and Instant Transmission. He sought revenge on Rhode for their earlier confrontation and impaled him during their battle. 109

Years later, Frieza tracked Vegeta and Nappa to Earth in hopes of finding Rhode. Rather than immediately fighting Rhode, he treated Vegeta and Raditz as warm-up opponents, successively revealing additional transformations against the Saiyans. 227 229 230 231

Goku ultimately defeated Frieza after stacking Great Ape Power onto his Super Saiyan form. Refusing to accept defeat, Frieza attempted to destroy Earth along with Goku, but Rhode froze time and sealed the attack. Rhode then killed Frieza after defeating him with one punch. 236 237 238

Frieza was later resurrected through the Two-Star Dragon Ball, apparently by surviving members of his forces. Returning to Earth with drastically enhanced power, he fought Vegeta, Raditz, and Goku before unveiling his gold-colored Pseudo-Golden form. 295 298 302 303

Personality

Frieza is poised, articulate, and outwardly courteous when he has the advantage. He praises capable opponents, offers recruitment to powerful Saiyans, and prefers to present himself as a refined ruler rather than a brute. 46 227 304

His elegance collapses when events leave his control. After Goku gains the upper hand, Frieza becomes reckless and attempts to destroy Earth rather than accept defeat. Rhode considers Frieza's politeness a facade masking a fundamentally wicked and dishonorable nature. 237

Frieza is intensely prideful about his innate talent. He believes that even a Legendary Super Saiyan could never surpass him, yet repeatedly reacts with shock or anger when Saiyans reveal power beyond his expectations. 46 232

Abilities & Skills

Transformations

Frieza possesses numerous forms that conceal or expand his power.

• His original 530,000-power form is a restraint used to make his strength easier to control. 45
• He can bypass intermediate forms and enter his Final Form directly when endangered. 45
• His later forms include the Monstrous Form, Final Form, Masked Form, Masked Muscle Form, and gold-colored Pseudo-Golden Form. 231 235 236 302
• The Masked Muscle Form increases power but is poorly suited to combat because of reduced speed. 236

Death Beam

Frieza fires concentrated piercing energy beams from a raised finger.

• Uses a Death Beam to strike Rhode after Rhode rejects his recruitment offer. 46
• Destroys fleeing Saiyan spacecraft after annihilating Planet Vegeta. 46
• Uses barrages of Death Beams against Goku during their Earth battle. 234 305

Planetary Destruction

Frieza can destroy planets through overwhelming energy output.

• Sends a planet-destroying attack toward Planet Vegeta, which Aila counters with a Kamehameha. 44
• Shatters Planet Vegeta by releasing energy through a stomp after descending onto its surface. 46
• Attempts to destroy Earth after losing to Goku, but Rhode seals the attack before it can succeed. 237

Instant Transmission

In his Masked Form, Frieza demonstrates Instant Transmission.

• Uses the technique to close on Rhode after his power rises to seven or eight billion. 109

Combat Ability

Frieza is a highly capable close-quarters fighter whose speed, reactions, tail, and raw power make him dangerous even before he transforms fully.

• Restrains Goku with his tail during their battle. 234
• Matches Goku in rapid exchanges and counters ki attacks with Death Beams. 234
• Shifts to long-range attacks when direct combat becomes unfavorable. 305

Relationships

• Rhode — Enemy and former recruitment target. Rhode repeatedly frustrates Frieza, defeats him, and ultimately kills him during their first Earth conflict. 46 109 238
• Aila — Saiyan enemy whose intervention prevents the immediate destruction of Planet Vegeta; she holds Frieza responsible for the Saiyans' extermination. 44 48
• King Vegeta — Subordinate ruler whom Frieza overwhelms psychologically by revealing his power before ordering the Saiyans' extermination. 42
• Vegeta — Former subordinate and recurring opponent. Frieza mocks, defeats, and humiliates him after returning to Earth. 227 298 299
• Raditz — Saiyan opponent who forces Frieza to reveal several transformations. 229 231 232
• Goku — Major rival. Frieza finds Goku interesting enough to recruit, but Goku defeats him in both major Earth confrontations. 233 237 304 306
• King Cold — Father. Frieza disappears to cultivate after learning of King Cold's death. 227

Story Role / Major Arcs

Destruction of Planet Vegeta

Frieza exposes the hopeless gap between himself and King Vegeta, orders the Saiyans exterminated, and personally destroys Planet Vegeta. Rhode and Aila interrupt his plan long enough for some Saiyans to escape. 42 44 46

First Earth Confrontation

After cultivating and searching for Rhode, Frieza follows Vegeta to Earth. He battles Vegeta, Raditz, and Goku in succession, displays multiple forms, loses to Goku, attempts to destroy Earth, and is killed by Rhode. 227 229 231 237 238

Resurrection and Pseudo-Golden Form

Frieza is revived through the Two-Star Dragon Ball and returns to Earth with dramatically increased strength. He defeats Vegeta, clashes with Raditz and Goku, and unveils a gold-colored Pseudo-Golden transformation. 295 298 302 303

Battle Against Super Saiyan 4 Goku

Frieza fights Super Saiyan 4 Goku, offers him a place as his chief warrior, and escalates the battle with ranged attacks. After Goku seemingly defeats him, Frieza returns fully recovered and launches another devastating Energy Blast, only to be confronted by Super Saiyan 4 Vegito. 304 305 309

Trivia

• Frieza claims to have four transformations remaining while fighting Raditz, leading Rhode to speculate about forms beyond his known transformations. 230
• His gold-colored form is explicitly described as incomplete Pseudo-Golden Frieza rather than true Golden Frieza. 309
• Frieza's scouters overload when Aila and Rhode raise their power beyond their detection limits. 44 45
