In December 2011, Jump Festa 2012 showcased the narrative of Bardock, the father of Goku. As fate would have it, he was supposed to meet his demise during Freeza's attack on Planet Vegeta. However, a twist in the story transported him back in time to a world full of strange beings. Eventually, he encounters Chilled, Freeza's precursor, a space criminal, and courageously takes on the villain to protect the planet.
