Biography
Biography
Heir to a monarchy destroyed by his own employer, Vegeta spends years working for the man who levelled his planet. His arc is the longest in the franchise: he starts as a methodical exterminator and ends as a fighter protecting a family, without ever giving up his pride or presenting it as a flaw.
Unlike Goku, he theorises. He counts, compares, calculates gaps, and it is that rigour that lets him catch up on stages he did not reach spontaneously. The series rarely rewards him at the moment it should, which explains the loyalty he inspires.
