Dragon Ball Super's latest chapter borrows from Dragon Ball Z's first Broly movie, as revelations about Gas' power reveal how the Heeter Force keep him under control.
How the villainous Heeter Force restrains the true power of their comrade Gas in Dragon Ball Super matches the way in which the Saiyan Paragus kept his son under control in Dragon Ball Z's first, non-canonized version of Broly. This is the latest example of the manga picking apart aspects from the first Dragon Ball Z film and recycling them in Granolah, the Survivor Saga.
In chapter 80 of Dragon Ball Super, the leader of the Heeter Force Elec tears off Gas' headpiece, unleashing the latter villain's true power and causing Gas to go berserk. Elec is clearly aware of the headpiece's purpose. The leader had just returned from wishing to planet Cereal's eternal dragon Toronbo to make Gas the most powerful warrior in the universe and tells Gas to liberate his true power so he can truly become the strongest.
This is just the latest example of Dragon Ball Super recycling moments from the first Broly movie for reuse in the manga. In the original film, the Saiyan Paragus arrived on Earth and tricked Vegeta into coming with him to the new planet Vegeta under the guise that the Legendary Super Saiyan's uncontrollable thirst for destruction is preventing him from creating a new Saiyan kingdom. But, of course, Paragus had ulterior motives.
This pattern of Dragon Ball Super recycling moments from the first Broly movie is undoubtedly a gift for those who prefer it to the retconned version. Since there is no hope of the original ever reappearing, this is the only way for these fans to relive some of the most pivotal tropes and themes from the non-canonized film.
