Broly's raw power may be equal to or eclipse that of the Gods Of Destruction. In a 2013 interview regarding the movie Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods, where Goku faces the God of Destruction, Beerus, he stated that Broly is scarier than Beerus. According to Takao Koyama in a 2006 interview, Broly is the strongest and most powerful antagonist in the Dragon Ball Z series. In the Daizenshuu 6: Movies & TV (1995) guidebook, it is stated that Super Saiyan Broly's power surpasses that of Super Saiyan Goku and that in his "Legendary Super Saiyan" form Broly is an opponent with infinite power. Like other Saiyans in the series, his heritage has given him superhuman strength, senses, durability, agility, speed, ki blasts and reflexes.
