He was also obsessed with surpassing his rival, Goku, and in the movie, Fusion Reborn, he actually wept at his inability to do so. As one of the elites of the Saiyan race, Vegeta was obsessed with becoming a Super Saiyan, something that is legendary amongst his people.
After becoming Majin Vegeta, he did return to his former ways, but it was just a failed attempt to regain his cruelty, thinking that was what made him strong before. In fact, he has stated that he became a ruthless killer and warrior due to Frieza making him so, indicating he could have turned out differently.Īs time went on, Vegeta eventually lost his mercilessness and cruelty, becoming more relaxed and very attached to his wife and children. Ever since he was a child, Vegeta has had no problem with killing but has become less inclined to do so over time. Because of his title as a prince and his Saiyan heritage, he feels that he is superior to almost everyone else and thinks Saiyans are the strongest race in the universe. Vegeta is a cold and disdainful man, as well as bitter about the destruction of his people and their time under Frieza's boot. You wouldn't know what it means to fight for others with all your heart and soul!
But even if I told you, you wouldn't understand, because you're just a cold-blooded bastard. You know it's futile and yet something pushes you to keep going. Jiren: Your battle is already over, Saiyan.
