Weekly ☆ Character Showcase #218: Ba from Dragon Ball Super: Broly!
Ba - Dragon Ball Super: Broly -
The Weekly ☆ Character Showcase is an article series where we introduce one character from the Dragon Ball universe each week. This week, we're taking a look at Ba, the mean, green, bug-eating machine from the movie Dragon Ball Super: Broly!
Story
Ba is a massive beast that makes its home on Planetoid Vampa.
Ba digs holes to hide in, using its green fur to disguise itself as part of a harmless grassy field.
Broly named it "Ba" because of the sound this creature makes.
Ba's main food source is the monstrous, bloodsucking bugs known as Goliamites.
Ba's violent nature makes it an excellent training partner for Broly.
First Appearance
Dragon Ball Super: Broly
Trivia
Ba was Broly's first friend!
Through training together every day, Ba and Broly develop something resembling friendship, which angers Paragus, who shoots Ba in the ear. This understandably caused a rift between Ba and Broly, but to this day, Broly wears Ba's ear around his waist in memory of his very first friend.
