Dragon Ball Proves Frieza’s Worst Enemy was Never Goku
Anyone familiar with the relationship between Dragon Ball’s Goku and Frieza know that they are mortal enemies with only the smallest hint of mutual respect in terms of their respective levels of power, though upon further analysis of Frieza’s greatest defeats throughout his Dragon Ball career, it becomes clear that Goku was never Frieza’s greatest enemy as that honor goes to a completely different Saiyan entirely.
Frieza and Goku first crossed paths during Dragon Ball’s ‘Frieza Saga’ by Akira Toriyama. During that storyline, Frieza and his universe-conquering army travel to Planet Namek in pursuit of the mystical Dragon Balls. Frieza planned to use the Dragon Balls to call forth a wish-granting Dragon and use the Dragon’s magic to become immortal.

However, Frieza was resurrected in Dragon Ball Super continuity, and his grudge against Goku for thwarting his villainous plot has not lessened even after all these years.
