- Genocidal space pirate who worked as an enforcer for an evil empire.

- The first thing he's seen doing in his special is annihilating a peaceful alien race alongside his crew.

- Only reason why he went against Frieza was because he found that Frieza was going to destroy the Saiyans and had his men killed.

- Had he won he and the Saiyans would have continued attacking and plundering planets.

- Treating his men well doesn't make him any less villainous. Plenty of Dragon Ball have been good bosses towards their men.

- Never shows remorse for the genocides and mass murders he's carried out.

- His crimes are infinitely worse than any villain from the original Dragon Ball.

- Part of what makes him so enjoyable in the special he appears in is that he isn't a good guy.

- To quote TVTropes "He's not really any better than any other Saiyans, aside from his sense of camaraderie, and doesn't show any real regrets over his actions as an agent of genocide; he only rebelled upon realizing that Freeza was going to kill everyone, including him. As Team Four Star put it, 'Bardock isn't a good person; he's just the protagonist.'"
