What Is 'Broly Boost' And Why Shouldn't You Take It? The Viral 'Dragon Ball Z' Pill Memes Explained
Dragon Ball fans and people with performance issues are coming together with a new wave of memes about the mysterious Broly Boost pills. Memes about the pills started to take off on TikTok at the end of August and now they're spreading outside of the platform. So what is a Broly Boost pill and what does it do? Here's what you need to know.
What Is The 'Broly Boost' Rhino Pill?
At the end of August 2024, a TikToker posted a video sharing an image of a strange pill in a Dragon Ball Z-themed package. The pill is called Broly Boost and it promises "no headache," an increase in time, stamina and size, promises to work in five minutes and that you only need one capsule for seven days of effects. This all might sound good, however, the video's caption seems to warn against using the pill.
So what exactly is Broly Boost? Well, Broly Boost is a rhino pill, another word for a type of men's bedroom performance pill that is frequently sold in corner stores and gas stations. These pills are not regulated or tested by the FDA and have been known to have side effects, so it's often assumed they're unsafe. The suggestion that the effects last for a week is particularly suspicious since you're meant to call a doctor if the effects of FDA-approved alternatives last longer than four hours.
How Is 'Broly Boost' Used In Memes?
Ever since the first video went viral on TikTok, others have hopped on the meme train to post their own videos about Broly Boost. The memes hinge on the humor behind advertising a bedroom performance pill using Dragon Ball imagery. In Dragon Ball, characters can go super saiyan, which gives them great power. This fact, combined with the pill's vague promises, makes it ripe for comedy.
Some of the most popular memes about Broly Boost tout it as a pill that gives the user unbelievable power for a week, purposefully ignoring the intended purpose of the pill. The videos tend to recommend against taking the pill, suggesting it will bring the user over the top and give them too much power to control.

Imagine taking a Broly Boost, multiple steroids, an entire flour bags worth of cocaine, BlueChew and Bath Salts. Would your heart just explode or would be the most powerful person on the planet for 30 seconds?

plot twist: it makes your feet swell up but technically it works as advertised because they swell up (size) for 7 days (time) and you lose all feeling in them so you can walk as much as you want and they wont hurt (stamina)
