This latest episode of Dragon Ball Super just further cemented the fact that Vegeta is undoubtedly the best character in Dragon Ball, bar none.
As he was fighting Toppo, he noticed that the latterâs demeanour had undergone a drastic change, as he was no longer fighting under the name of justice. Toppo would then clarify that he was willing to do whatever it took to ensure Universe 11â˛s survival. So to that end, he had cast aside everything he deemed to be âunnecessaryâ, and embraced his role as the God of Destruction:
Vegetaâs next thoughts were really, really powerful.
He repeated Toppoâs words, as if to question how Toppo could ever even consider that as an option:
This made me recall back to when Vegeta allowed himself to be controlled by Babidi in the Buu Saga. He allowed this to happen because he wanted to gain power and return to the way he was before; A cold-hearted Saiyan warrior, so that he could fight Goku with everything he had, uninhibited by emotions and attachments which he deemed to be foolish:
He thought about how even he as the Saiyan Prince, had a family which he had grown to care deeply for, how he had grown comfortable with a peaceful life on Earth, and how he had even began to enjoy such a lifestyle:
And thatâs precisely why he wanted to discard all of that, or to echo Toppoâs words, to âcast aside everything unnecessaryâ. He wanted to embrace his soul as a warrior, because he felt as though that was who he truly was, and he, much like Toppo, was willing to do whatever it took to reach that end:
Now contrast that with Vegetaâs sentiments in episode 126 of Super, and marvel at how far the Prince has come. Vegeta is character development personified.
After hearing Toppoâs words of casting aside everything he deemed to be unnecessary distractions, Vegeta instead refused to ever even consider the thought, and he instead wanted to embrace everything and everyone he held dear. He thought about his wife, his children, and a new found friend which he had made a promise to, and he used that as motivation to defeat his opponent:
In stark contrast to when Vegeta had opted to cast aside everything in order to gain power and defeat his opponent, now he was adamant to cast aside nothing, because he was ânot like [Toppo]â; he had changed:
And that is why Vegeta is and always has been the undisputed G.O.A.T of the Dragon Ball franchise. Readers and viewers are really able to witness his struggle, journey and development over the years, far more so than anyone else. In terms of character, heâs certainly in a league of his own.
