 Vegeta rules. This is something I became aware of very early in my Dragon Ball Z viewing. In my opinion, Vegeta is an absolutely perfect character, due in large part to the fact that he is so goddamn flawed. His stubborn pride at being the prince of an almost entirely extinct race, his lust for power which drives him to endanger and even kill countless innocents, it's all awesome. His eventual redemption and death provided one of the most genuinely touching moments in the entire series, and the end of his journey is accepting that he is not, in fact, the strongest fighter. At the same time, Vegeta provides countless moments of badassery. Becoming a Super Saiyan for the first time, beheading Android #19, obliterating Imperfect Cell until his pride again got the better of him to fighting a heroic losing battle against Buu. He is Vegeta, kids. Father, husband, Saiyan. Pink shirt wearer. |

If you haven't seen it, make sure to check out Dragonball Abridged. Vegeta's interactions with Nappa are a major highlight.

I loved him killing off the Ginyu Squad, one by one. Granted, it was only by his own merits like two of the times, the rest he picked off after Goku did the dirty work, but if he hadn't of done that, it likely would of bit them in the ass later.

You have got to be kidding me. You do know that this was the original quote from the manga right? |

I hate Creed, but this song works so well with the video. Pretty much a perfect choice. Vegeta is probably my favorite character in DBZ. I always thought he was more interesting than Goku.

Vegeta was the most awesome Z Fighter by far. He also was the only one who wasn't a complete bitch at times.
I still think he was better than Goku.

He was cool, but it did seem a bit odd for Bulma to jump in the sack with him so quickly.
"So you and your buddy (who you killed) are responsible for killing my current boyfriend, who only came back to life recently, destroyed an entire Earth city and everybody in it, and you swear that you want to kill one of my best friends from childhood because he threatens you as a Saiyan? Sounds hot."

He wasn't exactly at his most brave against Frieza, or counting movies, against Broly. Yeah, he had his cowardly moments, but more often than not he was ready to throw down whenever, as opposed to Goku who had to be forced into fighting whatever imminent threat was coming after everyone else had been exhausted. |

Well, given that one Episode where Trunks kills like all three androids in twenty seconds, I can't say he's the coolest guy in the show, but the whole not sparing people is pretty fun.

Vegeta had the best theme in that show besides Gohan's SSJ2 theme.
Also, HMark, the reason for Bulma's relationship with Vegeta is simple:
She got sick of Yamcha's playboy attitude, and she starts having feelings due to his determination of wanting to be better than Goku. Also, she felt sorry for him, as he seemed to be alone in the universe, since his entire race has been nearly wiped out, say for the low-class Saiyajin warrior that he tries to be better than. Unless you count Turles, Broly, Paragus, Tarble, and Gohan (who is actually only 1/2 Saiyajin).
Also, she probably figured he would be good protection. I mean, Yamcha got killed by a little green guy. Vegeta's only two deaths were from the most powerful villain in the universe (at the time), and his sacrifice to defeat Majin Buu.
