personality
This incarnation of Broly is very different from his counterpart. While his counterpart was a psychotic man with a split personality disorder that would randomly turn him into a sadistic killer, this Broly developed a more sane personality due to his relatively less tragic background. Due to his upbringing on an inhospitable planet living only with his father and no other sentient being, Broly is a quiet fellow with little social skills or manners. He also shows a noticeable fascination with the various comforts of the civilized society, particularly eating better quality food. Broly is by nature much more soft-hearted and gentle in contrast. He is sensitive and friendly, shown to be a sentimental man, as he greatly values any and all companionships he experiences, a trait extremely rare in Saiyans. Additionally, as noted by many, for all Broly's unprecedented talent for battle and sheer power, he is a peaceful man who does not like fighting except when his Saiyan instincts are aroused. He is quite friendly once his trust is earned. Broly was shown to be fiercely protective of Cheelai and Lemo, as shown when they were harassed by a Frieza Force soldier. He also is appreciative of other's kindness, giving Goku a warm smile after the fellow Saiyan offered to teach him to fight and to visit often.
As his father was the only companion he had in all this time, he developed an "undying loyalty" and love towards his father despite the harsh training he put Broly through. Some of this however may stem from emotional scaring, as he was horrified at the very notion of his father disciplining him with his electric collar. Despite being pointed out by Cheelai and Lemo that his father probably only saw him as a weapon of revenge against King Vegeta, Broly nevertheless still cared deeply for Paragus and refused to speak ill about him. This is further evidence as the sight of Paragus' corpse made him explode in grief and rage, and transform into a Super Saiyan. This is a key difference between him and his original counterpart. While Broly truly cared for his father, his counterpart blinded his father during one of his rampages and later was shown laughing maniacally while crushing him to death. After recovering from his rage at his father's death however, Broly appeared to be much more relaxed, as it was only Paragus who sought vengeance on King Vegeta while Broly was content living alone on Vampa.
At the same time, for all of Broly's genuine gentleness, similar to his counterpart, Broly has a vicious side to him. As his emotions are directly connected to his power, when he exerts himself enough or is provoked, he enters a berserker state. However, whereas his counterpart becomes an amoral and blood-lusting maniac, Broly becomes more of feral beast with little rationality. As Broly taps into and goes deeper into his power, his sanity starts to fray and he starts to have trouble comprehending instructions from his father along with progressively becoming more violent. When he reaches Super Saiyan thanks to the death of Paragus, his mindset boils down to โkill everything that movesโ. For instance during his battle with Goku and Vegeta, when the two of them flew by Frieza and quickly zipped away, Broly forgot all about trying to kill the two Saiyans and instead began beating Frieza to death despite the tyrant ostensibly being Broly's own ally. He became so mentally unstable that the only known way to non-fatally subdue him is to invoke the fear of death. It is suggested by Goku that Broly can in fact control himself if he receives the proper training.
