Vegetto is a fictional character in the Dragon Ball manga and Dragon Ball Z anime. He is the immensely powerful result of Goku and Vegeta fused by use of the Potara earrings, and is widely accepted as being the strongest character from the Dragon Ball series before Dragon Ball GT. Vegetto, like Gotenks before him was voiced by two actors at the same time. In Japan he was voiced by the seiyū Masako Nozawa (Goku) and Ryo Horikawa (Vegeta). In the US version Vegetto was voiced by Sean Schemmel (Goku) and Christopher Sabat, (Vegeta). The Ocean Group version has Vegetto only voiced by Brian Drummond, the first voice actor for Vegeta.

Appearance

Vegetto is a mixture of both Goku and Vegeta's characteristics. He is approximately 5 feet 8 inches tall, about the same height as Goku. His personality is a mix of the two. He acts cocky like Vegeta, but he had been acting in that way on purpose to accomplish his plan of saving the others, just as Goku had done in the past. Being a whole new being, he refers to his counterparts as separate people as they would address each other, he said, "Vegeta," as Goku would, "and Kakarotto" as Vegeta would, "combined, so I guess that makes me Vegetto."


Vegetto's hair is more inclined toward Vegeta since it firmly stands upwards. However, he has two bangs sticking out like a downward "V" shape, a trait caught from Goku. Vegetto wears two earrings as result from the Potara Fusion, and wears an inverted version of Goku's outfit. The inversion is caused by adopting Vegeta's outfit for the external wear, and using the orange of Goku's outfit for the undershirt. Finally, he wears white gloves and boots in the same style as Vegeta.


History

Origin of the name

Goku and Vegeta merging into Vegetto
Goku and Vegeta merging into Vegetto

The name Vegetto (ベジット Bejitto?) arises from a combination of the Japanese characters that form Vegeta (ベジイタ Bejiita?) and Kakarotto (カカロット Kakarotto?). One can see that the name is formed from taking the "ベ" and "ジ" characters from Vegeta's name, and the "ッ" and "ト" characters from Kakarotto. When translating into English, therefore, the name "Vegetto" uses "Vege-" from Vegeta, and "-tto" from Kakarotto. Because Viz uses the name Kakarrot, however, they extracted the letters "-rot" from Son Goku's Saiyan name, and thus named the character Vegerot (note that the English dub calls him Vegito, which doesn't make sense given the spellings of the two characters' names).

The Potara Fusion

The Potara Earring Fusion used to form Vegetto is what Rou Dai Kaioshin considered to be the proper way to do fusion, as opposed to Fusion Dance technique. The resulting fusion lasts forever, even if the fused being removes the earrings. The determination of power levels is more complex than simply adding together the power levels of the two individuals. Vegetto has the confidence and fighting smarts of Goku, along with the superior attitude and genius strategical mind of Vegeta; in other words, the perfect fusion. Goku and Vegeta's rivalry somehow made the fusion more compatible, giving them even more power than expected, which was seen when Vegetto transformed into "Super Vegetto".

Vegetto is born

Vegetto was a fusion formed out of desperation by Vegeta and Goku in an effort to stop Buu, an ancient and amazing powerful creature whose only purpose is to destroy. Because Buu had absorbed some of the Z Fighters, including Gotenks, and was getting more powerful, Goku and the Kaiôshins came to a conclusion that the best hope of defeating Buu was fusion, but there was no time to attempt the fusion technique. As a solution to this problem, the Potara Earrings were given to Goku to save the universe from Buu. Goku then proceeds to Earth just in time, before Buu could destroy it. Goku threw the earring to Gohan so they could fuse, but Gohan failed to catch it. Buu then lost a large amount of power due to Gotenks separating inside him. He then proceeds to absorb Gohan, becoming even more deadly and powerful. Goku is now left with no one that could help him by fusing, but miraculously he senses Vegeta's energy, and quickly transports himself to his location. After some quick persuasion, due to Buu beating them up, Vegeta finally agrees (after being told what fate had befallen his family), giving birth to Vegetto.

Vegetto vs. Super Buu w/Gohan

Buu didn't take the new opponent very seriously, even though he felt a great power from him. After playing around with Buu for a while, Vegetto then decided to turn things up a notch, by increasing his power with a transformation. Buu is stunned to know that Vegetto can become even more powerful than he is now. Vegetto transforms into a Super Saiyan, and calls himself "Super Vegetto". Buu is impressed, but not convinced that Vegetto is stronger than him. Buu or Majin Buu is a fictional character in the manga Dragon Ball and the anime Dragon Ball Z and Dragon Ball GT. The Majin title denoting his influence by his master, and Buu being the name play completing his two masters who were named from the Fairy Godmothers...


Vegetto then began to completely dominate Buu, rendering his attacks useless. His anger at this caused him to start breaking through dimensions, which, if left unchecked, could have destroyed the universe. Eventually, Vegetto forced his way through a shield Buu put up, which effectively stopped his rage.


With little left to lose, Buu turned Vegetto into a coffee flavored jawbreaker. All seemed lost until candy-Vegetto revealed that he was able to fly around and still attack physically, eventually slicing off Buu's antenna. Buu eventually turned him back after realising that there was no way to hurt Vegetto because of his small size. Scan of a split jawbreaker candy showing layers of sugar Gobstoppers, known as jawbreakers in the United States, are a type of hard candy. ...


After another beating, even Buu's regeneration was starting to fail him. Vegetto decided that it was time to end the battle once and for all. He then gave Buu ten seconds to prepare for death, and told him to do whatever he feels like in that time period. Buu started to panic, and when Vegetto reached nine, he manipulated the antenna that was recently cut off and engulfed Vegetto. The battle was over with Buu coming out as the victor.


Unknown to Buu, however, Vegetto could've easily destroyed him at any given moment yet he toyed around with him. Before being absorbed, he had set up a barrier, so he wouldn't be integrated into Buu. This is because he wanted to be absorbed so as to free all his companions and family members. Thus the reasoning for cutting off the antenna and giving him the free time. Buu then goes on a rampage, and Vegetto is left within him to free everyone. When he entered Buu's body, the magic of the earrings somehow wears off, and Vegetto become Goku and Vegeta again. Vegeta then smashed the earrings, so they wouldn't have to fuse again. When facing Kid Buu, they were also given the option to become Vegetto again, but they refused out of Saiyan pride.

Renzokou Kikouha

(Banshee Blast) Vegetto reaches out with his right hand, body hunched over somewhat with all five of his fingers pointed at his opponent. In DBZ fashion, he calls out the name of this attack while charging up five small yellow orbs of energy, one at the tip of each finger on his right hand. After doing so, he launches the orbs at his opponent. As Super Buu had sent a wave of Kamikaze Ghosts, Vegetto used this attack to destroy them before they could do any amount of damage.

Ki no Tsurugi

(Flash Sword, Spirit Sword, Beam Sword) A blade created from pure, condensed ki(energy) around the right hand and formed into a sword-like object. It is usually roughly around twenty feet in length, and yet can be controlled to become longer or shorter, at Vegetto's will. The cutting power of the blade cannot truly be measured very accurately, but using the attacks upon Super Buu as a gauge, it seems that this sword has incredible strength. Because this sword is created by a single usage of ki, and can continue to be used without dying out like a projectile, this could be considered one of Vegetto's most devastating attacks.

Fighting Candy

After being turned into a coffee-flavored jawbreaker by Buu so that he can be consumed, Vegetto is still able to fight as a small candy. Some consider this to be (ironically) Vegetto's most dangerous form. Not only does Vegetto retain all of his power, but he is also extremely fast and far too small for Buu to hit. In the dub he calls it his "Pinball Attack". However, while this small size gives him a colossal advantage in battle, he is not invulnerable. Vegetto is unable to use any special abilities in this form, rendering him unable to kill villains like Cell and Buu as long as they can regenerate fast enough, although they could theoretically be beaten to death. This is however, a special ability as no one else possesses it.


Vegetto: Big Bang Attack

This special type of Big Bang mixed with a Kamehameha is much different from Gogeta's special. Vegetto's version of the Big Bang attack is much weaker. Vegetto extends his left arm towards his target, and stiffens all his fingers upwards. He then begins to power up, firing a powerful beam of energy, that instead of come crashing down like a meteor, fires straight towards the target inflicting painful damage. It has the straight beam feature like Goku's Kamehameha, the aim of both, and the power of the Big Bang Attack.


Vegetto: Kamehameha

This is a much more powerful version of Goku's Kamehameha. Vegetto's Kamehameha glows much more brightly than anyone else's and is yellow or gold, not blue. As a result of Vegetto's immense power, this attack inflicts an incredible amount of damage. While it is unclear whether this is just due to the increased level of energy or a change in the nature of the blast, this version of the Kamehameha incinerates anything it touches, whereas Goku's only blasts it away.


Spirit Cannon

Very similar to Spirit Sword, except the energy doesn't fan out like a sword. Vegetto points towards his target, while preparing for the attack. It charges up, and then blasts whatever the target was. Vegetto did perform this attack on Buu, but he managed to regenerate. It has a slightly different effect in the Dragon Ball Z Budokai Games, with Vegetto extending his hand towards the enemy, becoming surrounded by yellow energy and releasing a powerful yellow energy blast, instead of a constant beam of energy.


Final Kamehameha

Vegetto's Final Kamehameha.
Vegetto's Final Kamehameha.

This is one of or perhaps even the strongest attack that Vegetto performs on Super Buu. This attack is a combination blend of the Final Flash attack and the Kamehameha wave. Vegetto puts both of his hands in front of him, combines the energy of the Final Flash attack and the Kamehameha into a compact bright white ball with a bluish glow and is surrounded by a blue aura and occasional streaks of blue electricity. The ball is only about the size of Vegetto himself. Vegetto fires off the ball, which creates a gigantic explosion on contact and leaves a huge cloud of smoke behind. The charge up and hand positions are a bit different in the video games, where Vegetto charges it like a Final Flash and fires it like the Kamehameha. Vegetto uses this technique to blow off Super Buu's left arm, small parts of his right arm antenna, both of his legs, and batter up the rest of his body quite a bit. This attack is available to Vegetto in the Playstation game, Dragonball: Final Bout. After pressing Down, Back, Forward, Triangle, he yells, "O tsurugi wa koitsu da! FAINARU KAMEHAMEHA!" This has never been seen before in the anime or manga. Also in the game DBZ Shin-Budokai, he has this attack and he simply says "Final Kamehameha!" when performed.

Forms and transformations

Vegetto

Vegetto's Base Form
Vegetto's Base Form

This is Vegetto's base form. This form is first seen when he is first fused. In this form, he is immensely powerful. At this stage, Vegetto's strength is far greater than a Super Saiyan 3's. He is able to completely match Super Buu w/Gohan in this form. However, Vegetto wouldn't much dominate Buu if he were to sustain this form, as it was shown Buu could've landed a few punches and attack on the Saiyan. The power of the Potara Earrings gave Vegetto far more than enough power, making him unbeatable to Buu. Even at this stage, Vegetto would still be considered the strongest character in Dragon Ball Z. However, he is able to make a transformation and substancially increase his power and abilities. Also note that in the manga, Vegetto directly transformed into a Super Saiyan, calling himself Super Vegetto.

Super Vegetto (Super Saiyan)

Super Vegetto
Super Vegetto

Super Vegetto/Vegito was able to transform into a Super Saiyan. In the anime, when he was first fused into a normal state he was already far stronger than a Super Saiyan 3. In the manga he transformed right away. Once he transformed into a Super Saiyan, he became truly unstoppable. As a Super Saiyan, he completely dominated Super Buu w/Gohan. After his transformation, he gained a slight increase in muscle, though everything else remains the same, except for features such as: Golden hair, eyebrows, green eyes and golden aura (with occasional surges of blue electricity). Vegetto called himself in this new form "Super Vegetto" (Or "Super Vegerot" in the English manga). Super Vegetto appeared to be well beyond Buu's abilities to defeat, though there was one moment where Super Buu might have been able to win indirectly by destroying existence itself. Super Vegetto hardly exerted himself in battle, and was in absolute control of the fight. Vegetto is generally acknowledged as the most powerful character in Dragon Ball Z and the Dragon Ball manga, possessing the enormous power of both Goku and Vegeta.

Notes

  • In the Viz English manga, Vegetto is named Vegerot. This was Viz's attempt at sticking with original name puns while taking creative control. Vegerot comes from Vegeta and Kakarot. While this makes more sense as opposed to FUNimation's naming the character "Vegito", this change was unwelcome with fans of the original version, along with all of the other changes being made recently to the Dragon Ball Z graphic novels, including, but not limited to, slight zoom-in as a result of certain discrepancies within the English and original Japanese languages respectively, printing errors, mistranslations, removal of all profanity, references to alcohol and/or drugs, firearms, sexual innuendo, etc. This resulted in the series receiving an "A for all ages rating," a demographic which Viz generally targets its material at.
