Background / History

Vegeta recognized Beerus immediately when the God of Destruction arrived on Earth, reacting with terror and fearing that Beerus might destroy the planet. He had never heard of the Super Saiyan God before Beerus asked about it. 4

Lin Fan's revelation as the Saiyan Progenitor shook Vegeta deeply. Lin Fan's bloodline majesty suppressed him so severely that he struggled against an urge to kneel, while realizing that Lin Fan was vastly stronger than both himself and Goku. 6

Rather than accept being left behind, Vegeta lowered his pride and bowed to Lin Fan, asking to train under him. Lin Fan had already selected him as his trainee for a wager against Whis, who chose Goku; the contest was to determine which mentor could cultivate Universe 7's strongest warrior. 7 8

Lin Fan first corrected Vegeta's fixation on transformations by forcing him to develop his base combat power. After meeting Lin Fan's requirements, Vegeta had Whis restore his tail and began the path toward Super Saiyan 4. 10 11

Appearance

Vegeta's Super Saiyan 4 form combines a humanoid build with distinctly primal Saiyan traits. 13

• Thick vermilion-red fur covers his upper body. 13
• Long brown hair falls over his shoulders. 13
• His restored tail becomes red in Super Saiyan 4. 13
• In Super Saiyan 4 Ultra Full Power, he retains the form's red fur and long black hair while radiating an intensified golden aura. 19

Personality

Vegeta is intensely proud, competitive, and driven by the need to surpass Goku. He initially reacts to Lin Fan's overwhelming strength with shock and resentment, but chooses humility when it offers a path to greater power. 6 7

His confidence can become arrogance, particularly after unlocking Super Saiyan 4. Lin Fan's severe gravity training and repeated “assessments” temper this attitude, teaching Vegeta that a new form is not an endpoint. 13

He places exceptional value on Saiyan pride and dignity. During his match with Cabba, Vegeta is outraged that another Saiyan cannot transform into a Super Saiyan, though his apparent cruelty is ultimately intended to force Cabba to awaken his latent power. 49 50

Relationships

Trivia

• Vegeta's tail had been severed in childhood and had never naturally regrown before Whis restored it. 11
• His Super Saiyan 4 training required him to remain transformed while eating, sleeping, and training; dropping the form inside Lin Fan's Gravity Chamber would have been fatal. 13
• Champa is intimidated by Vegeta's status as Lin Fan's disciple and backs down from attacking him. 48
