A WORD FROM THE AUTHOR(ME)!: Hey guys, I'm uploading another 2 chapters before the week ends! Supergirl returns Monday so get excited people!
Chapter 7
"Hey guys its Bra and I'm back for another episode of character comparisons! Last time I compared Gohan to Catco employer/Kara's beastie James Olsten! Thanks for leaving your comments as it was really nice to hear that you also made that connection between the two even if it was a big foggy at first! With that out of the way, its time to once again update you on what's going on, and its a mixed bag. One the one hand I'm stronger and everyone(yes even my dad) feels like I am ready to help out Supergirl and Pan but on the other hand with Wynn's father coming to town its a tense time here. Also with that weird light is coming to Earth and now there are reports that it crashed somewhere barren. Dad can't sense the energy of this person whether it be friend or foe and John has a nagging feeling its one of the members of the Martian Race! The reason he says that is that they are one of the few races that can "naturally" conceal their energy signals without the need for training which does make a lot of sense. After all, Goku had to learn from Mr. Popo how to sense the power levels of people, and Dad had to do the same on Namek without his scouter. As to this breakout from Fort Rozz everyone is trying to discern whether this person will align himself(or herself) to Astra or Non. I personally hope that Kara helps her see how much damage Astra and Non caused not only to Krypton but also now to Earth but if she can't then Dad says that I could go and help. You know what would be cool? For Kara to form her own "squad". Pan says that she doesn't have enough females with superpowers(as she and Pan are the only female fighters to speak of right now!) but have no fear because in a few weeks I will be ready to join Pan and Kara! I've also come up with a cool name for our squad: "Kara's Krew of Female Jewels(or if you want an abbreviation KKOFJ)!" Now that I've updated you guys about what's going on let me give out the number 800-shenron that's 800-743-6766 to talk! and the email is Bra_Briefs "
"Lets go to the phones for today's character comparison! Your on with Bra Briefs". "HEY BRA Natewantstobattle here"." "OMG NATE?! I'M LIKE YOUR BIGGEST FAN" Bra squealed feeling the fangirl in her coming out. "That's what they all say anywhere I'm just calling to make another suggestion!" he replied amused. "Oh well suggest away!" Well you talked about Alien Parents, James, and Cat(which is totally Ok with me by the way!) But I want you to tackle the ever so interesting topic of alien enemies?" "Are you talking about Astra and Non?" Bra asked; "yes can you tackle them like you did with Alura and Jor-El". "I will gladly do that thanks Nate" "No problem remember to have a fantastic day and run through life and I'll talk to you later Bra goodbye"
"Well thanks for the suggestion Nate and I love your music by the way!. As for Astra and Non I will gladly talk about them in my broadcast today so here we go!. I will do Astra in this episode and Non in the next and the reason for doing this is that Astra is a rather complex character and DESERVES to have one broadcast dedicated to her. As to who Astra resembles I can't help but to think of Paragus and my father(when he was evil). I know "BUT BRA, YOU ALREADY COMPARED YOU'RE DAD TO ALURA WHY COMPARE HIM TO ASTRA? and also "BUT BRA, PARAGUS CONTROLLED PEOPLE WITH A DEVICE AND NON ISN'T BROLY!" "That may be true listeners but when I compared dad to Alura I only meant in terms of being an important figure. Both Alura and Dad were the royalty of their respective races and that hasn't changed simply because their respective planets are now gone. What has changed is everything after their planets were gone; now I know Alura is dead and that Frieza let dad live to serve him but the similarities of their experiences on Earth(and even some extent dad's experience on Namek before he was killed by Frieza) are to startling not to notice and the evidence will prove that I am right. As for Non being Broly well you have to remember that my brother told me that despite his insanity he wasn't altogether an incoherent villain. True he was controlled by Paragus and to some extent Non is controlled by his wife Alura but at the same time, they both wanted to achieve the same goal which is achieve revenge on those that banished them away. Its just that Broly lost it when he saw Goku because he cried incessantly when Broly was a baby and broke out of Paragus's mind control. Other than that, he and Non are nothing alike. "
"Now Astra and dad(when he was evil) are similar in that they both have an enormous amount of blood on their hands and neither of them deny it. Astra killed a Kryptonian guard(according to my brother's story from Alura's AI) and my dad shed blood conquering planets for Frieza. They were also "away" from the other members of their race for a long time. Now of course it was a bit different; Astra was imprisoned in the Fortress of Solitude whereas my dad was off conquering and trying to obtain immortality. However, they both knew of their respective races on Earth; Astra had to know when she escaped Fort Rozz that Kara was on Earth and similarly Raditz contacted Dad and Nappa that they were saiyans on Earth and they went to Earth to "pick them up" before he died."
"I've stated that both my dad and Astra's battles on Earth were shockingly similar and now I'm going to explain why. In both the battles on Earth, the first round Astra had Kara at her mercy with dad, he also had Goku at his mercy. Even though Kara had adapted to her powers and Goku had his Kaioken to boost his strength both of them had to resort to extreme measures; with Kara it was Hank driving that Kryptonian knife into Astra which allowed Kara to gain the upper hand and for Kara to flee. Goku upped his Kaioken attack to Times 4 and counterattacked dad's galic gun with the kamameha wave which for the moment drove dad away as well. Round 2 were similar in that both dad and Astra had an unfair advantage over their opponents; Astra used that same Kryptonite Knife to keep Kara at bay and of course Dad used the moon ball technique to transform into an ape(and mind you he also had an advantage because Goku pushed his body to far with the Kaiokenx4 Kamehameha Blast). Now they both tried to get a fair ground and it was achieved but in different ways; Kara was able to fly away before Astra could finish her for good and of course Yajirobe cut of my dad's tale(I still laugh whenever Gohan tells me that story). Astra later called Kara out which is the same way that dad called Gohan out-as he was one of the few fighters that still had their energy (along with Krillen). They were more or less even in their battles but the way that they were defeated were also similar in how unexpected and shocking it was! With Astra, she deliberately left herself open for attack and Kara took advantage and subdued her. With dad he was weakened from Goku's Spirit Bomb(which he gathered from the environment after which he blinded dad with the solar flare) but it was dad's own moon ball that proved to be his undoing just as Astra leaving herself open was her undoing. Gohan's tail regrew and turned ape when he looked at the moon ball and Dad was crushed when he cut off Gohan's tail again leading to his defeat. The end of the battle was also similar because they[dad and Astra] were spared for the same reason: they[Kara and Goku] believed their enemies had good in them and if either of them executed them they would be no better. Both Alex and Krillen also protested the very notion of sparing their enemies but they both had to accept it. "
"After that battle both Astra and Dad had a lot of time to think about their defeat on Earth and it haunted the both of them. Dad's situation was a little different because he went into recovery on one of Frieza's planets but they both knew that worse things then them were coming which is another similarity. Non was about to attack Lord Industries and Frieza found out about the Namekian Dragon Balls and both of them launched an attack against those unsuspecting victims(the Namekians and Maxwell). Now both Alex and Krillen learned that they were doing so the hard way when both Non and Frieza's armies attacked(of course this was compounded when Dad also landed on Namek causing Krillen, Gohan and Mom to alert a still recovering Goku of the threat). In the battle that followed Hank was abducted, and later on in another skirmish soldiers were killed by that false lead Astra gave to Kara. What's also interesting is that Sam didn't want Astra to be part of a prisoner exchange just as Krillen worried about what Dad would do when he got to Namek. Now mom did tell me that Dad killed a Namekian village and Kara was worried about trying to save her job but for the most part everyone was worried about the greater evil[Non and Frieza respectively]."
"The most striking similarity is that Astra did eventually cooperate with Kara in giving up Non's location and later on ordering Non to stand down even though she could've told him not to honor the agreement. In the same way, Dad had to cooperate with Gohan and Krillen(and incidentally that's how he met mom although she was scared!) against the Ginyu force and handed over the dragon balls he found to them. He also helped t in the fight against Frieza such as telling Krillen to blast him(so that they could stand a chance) saving Gohan's life(after Frieza transformed into his final form, and stalling(even though it was more of a beat down then anything else) until Goku fully recovered after the battle with Ginyu(even though Ginyu tricked him by switching bodies). Now I don't know if Astra is eventually going to turn into a good person like dad eventually did but now at least the conversation of what really happened on Krypton could now begin with Astra and Kara."
"In terms of Paragus Astra is similar to him because they both rebelled against the authority of their respective planets. Now it was for different reasons(as Broly was considered a danger to saiyan society). Even though Broly was the brawns(and Astra is a fighter as well), Paragus like Astra is a strategic person considering every move before either one makes it. Paragus also served alongside my grandfather on Vegeta just as Astra served alongside her sister Alura in the Kryptonian council. Now Astra knew Krypton was going to be destroyed and when no one listened she resorted to violence and was eventually caught and banished to the Phantom Zone by Alura. Paragus' situation was a little different(as he pleaded to my grandfather that Broly could be a useful ally in the future) but Grandpa threw them out like the trash and banished them(even though according to my brother Broly protected himself and Paragus when Frieza destroyed the planet). He and Astra also vowed vengeance against the members of their respective race and while Kara did spare Astra and she repaid the favor by saving her against Non, Paragus was killed by Broly when they fought the Z warriors(including dad and my brother in the other timeline) on the New Planet Vegeta. In any case I hope you understand why I compared Astra to dad(when he was evil) and Paragus and next time I will cover Non! Who does he resemble? Well you have to turn in my beloved listeners so see you guys next !"
End Chapter
Me: I dedicate this chapter to NateWantsToBattle he's amazing and I recommend you listen to his music(although his cursing during gameplay may turn you off) Anyway, I hope that the explanation for Paragus, Vegeta(when he was evil) and Astra was logical and well thought out! I made mention that the similarities of their fight on Earth was similar but of course some may point out that I left out SSJ2 Goku's fight vs. Majin Vegeta! In terms of the beginning of the second round(when Astra had that suit in addition to the knife) it does resemble the end of the fight between Majin Vegeta and SSJ2 Goku. Of course Astra's language during the fight with Kara does resemble some of what Vegeta said to Goku(in terms of returning to his roots and being humiliated again and again by the low class and that he won't stand for it anymore)! The other similarity was that their was a far worse threat then them; of course with Astra it was Non and with Goku/Vegeta it was Majin Buu! However(if you read Supergirl Z) Bra and everyone else doesn't know about the events of Buu/Beerus/Golden Frieza/Champa so IN BRA'S MIND BOTH rounds of Kara's fight with Astra resembles her father's 1st battle with Goku when its the exact opposite. Of course when she(along with everyone else) finds out about these things her opinion will change but for now that's the way she thinks!
Once again the information about Wynn's father comes from "childish things" the meteor refers to the episode after that episode and the prisoner is referring to 2 episodes after that so please don't spoil anything! In any case, another chapter of Character Comparison is coming soon so stay tuned!
