VEGETA'S FINAL ATONEMENT! Girlfriend's EMOTIONAL REACTION TO VEGETA'S ULTIMATE SACRIFICE! DBZ Ep.237

[@the_real_robby]

I think your idea is good, but it's more simple than that. Vegeta's response of "I think I finally understand you" comes right after Buu says "Big mad now, me want fight!" Vegeta was just quipping that he knows how Buu feels and also wants to fight.

_And so, one of the Earth’s greatest warriors has vanished in a blinding flash of light. Having made the ultimate sacrifice, for the sake of his loved ones. His name was Vegeta. A proud Saiyan Prince._ I can still remember shedding tears when I heard the narrator say this right after Vegeta nuked himself against Majin Buu. This is by far the most emotional episode in all of DBZ. Vegeta’s character development is just magnificent. He went from an evil, heartless Saiyan who wanted to destroy the Earth to a caring husband and father who would sacrifice his life for the sake of his family and friends to save the Earth from Buu. The way he embraced his son Trunks and told him to take care of his mother was heartwarming. Everything about this episode is just perfect and it really makes you love Vegeta as a character.

"And even for you.... Kakarot" how can you not love Vegeta. This was one of the few emotional moments he had in DBZ. And man, hearing Krillin yell "VEGETAAAAAA!" was the icing.

[@KudaroDoesYt]

it hit different when krillin called out for vegeta when he sacrificed himself krillin was the first person to almost kill vegeta and now they've came to a point to where they respect each other

[@finfen9730]

To those that miss it- if you're not already shedding tears after this amazing episode, when Vegeta says, "I think I finally understand you..."- He isn't talking to Buu, he's reminiscing about Goku. Remember Goku killed himself during the cell saga and it Broke Vegeta. Like his will as a warrior crumbled and it haunted him. This was the moment he finally understood why Goku did what he did and more importantly, for who he did it for. It's such a deep moment and is a testament to the writing for the show.

[@macdaddymario]

You've got evidence to back that up, of course. A quote of confirmation from Toriyama himself, naturally. Not the opinions of voice actors or anything silly like that. It's a nice theory, but it's just a fan theory.

[@klephenthurry3284]

​@@macdaddymarioOk honestly how those lines be interpretted any other way tho? You think he was talking about Buu or Krillin? 😂

[@macdaddymario]

@@klephenthurry3284 The interpretation is simple. He hit Buu with a lot. It did nothing because he regenerated in front of his eyes after getting hit with that "Atomic Blast." He understands Buu. "I finally understand you. I'm going to crush you, and throw you into the wind." the interpretation is simple. He understands how to kill him. And is proven correct at the end of the saga when he is obliterated by the spirit bomb. He just lacked the power himself to generate enough damage to do it himself when he tried. Again, unless we have confirmation to the proposed fan theory. I love DB. I work on ESF. But it's writing was never that deep, specifically because Toriyama infamously confirmed that he intentionally never planned anything, and is the reason he thought SSJ3 was SSJ2 after coming back to do the small amount of work he has done for SUPER. Hell, Majin Vegeta wasn't even his idea. Originally it was going.to be Majin Piccolo. His editor suggested Vegeta instead. Further showing there was no planned callback for Vegeta to understand Goku. He wasn't even supposed to be in that position originally.

[@alexv5581]

He was never evil in the first place. If he was evil then he would never commit his life to his loved ones. You can't go from evil to good in one second. Vegeta has been enslaved his whole life, thus fueled with hatred, the only thing that kept him going was the belief in power and strength. Here he finally understands what it means to fight for his loved ones.

[@Mr-Nebel]

@@alexv5581 He blew up many people in that tournament to catch goku's attention. Yes, he was evil. But as he said previously, he need Babidi to release the evil in is heart. He was slowly releasing that evil within him by fighting with goku and boo, therefore my observation on this.

[@danielpaunescu3075]

I don’t think he cares about suffering in hell, he just wants to know if he’ll meet Goku in the afterlife for the simplest reason of having a rematch. Saying “Oh well, so be it.” means he realised he will never have the chance to prove himself against Goku ever again, so he just makes peace with himself, giving up on his desire to fight Goku.

I just realized that the last time Piccolo and Vegeta spoke was following Goku's death. And here they are again, the two that understand one another being former villains. Vegeta's life has been completely on hold since Goku's death, and he's been trying to figure out who he is. And now, here he is with PIccolo again after 7 years ago. After Goku's death Vegeta said "What have you left me here? I'll never have a chance to prove myself". And an opportunity for Vegeta to prove himself has come up. "I think I finally understand you." He was saying he finally understand's how goku could die for them. "How did you die like that without fear. I"m no warrior, and I will never fight again..." Here he is, and he dies. With no fear. Honor restored. Finally knowning who he is and what he's fighting for. Brilliant writing

I think the biggest thing outside of Vegeta's sacrifice. Is you see how the other characters care about him now, since season 1. Piccolo gave him the truth and told him what will happen after he dies. Respecting him. Krillin is genuinely concerned when he dies in the explosion. Compared to Season 1 when he wanted to run him through with a sword. It's nice to see Vegeta's impact and his switch. But his growth and sacrifice shows how the others care about him too. Even though it's not spoken.

Not sure why this arc gets hated on. This is one of the greatest arcs in Dragon ball. Amazing episodes

[@broken120z]

This arc gets hated on because it's consistently gets compared to the 3 previous arcs which are some of the best shonen shit ever.

[@LordMalice6d9]

@@broken120z Only the Freeza arc is really any good in DBZ. The others all have poor writing choices and hollow narratives.

[@lenaa97]

Because it's all downhill from here.

when vegeta said at 16:33 "I think I finally understand you he was talking to goku, i.e. he finally understands how goku can fight selflessly and sacrifice himself the way he does, specifically referencing episode 192 when he feels defeated by goku's sacrifice.

[@grapefruitorange6364]

This episode influenced me a lot when I was a child. It showed me that its cool to be a good person.

[@KenNakajima07]

This is one of my favorite episodes of the whole series, so emotional!!!

[@ndndave9241]

Only the dudes continually get all choked up with the Prince of All Saiyans’ noble sacrifice.

[@ZKakarot24]

I'll admit this episode makes me cry every time I see it. People that don't know this show don't understand everything with Vegeta here. It's deep! Things like this make DBZ the GOAT of any Anime or cartoon. Hands down.

[@vkdeen7570]

for sure. when u understand where his chatacter has come from... its an astonishing redemption. it shud of been the end of the buu saga, if it was it would of been the greatest ending to any saga in any anime ever

[@13nash2mvp]

“You made me proud my son…” best line ever! We all remembered how it was important for future Trunks to get recognition from him own father. I think Vegeta knew it all along

[@s1l3nc3r1985]

That is the most Vegeta response. "Oh well....so be it."

[@bobtony6036]

"i think I finally understand you", maybe he referring to Goku?

[@BustinJustin951]

You can see dude holding back tears. I cry every time.

[@kenshiownzyou]

This scene always gets me man.. such an amazing moment for vegeta 😢

[@seahawkblazing9253]

I personally think why this is so emotional for boys and men, is cuz the only thing we wanna hear from our dads is acknowledgment that we made them proud. As a child from a immigrant dad who was very prideful and tough, that word was rarely used. Fathers back then just didn’t act the same. So to hear vegeta break though his toughness and pride at the end was something special. It takes a few generations to break through the hardships that come from immigrant life. I tell my kids I’m proud far more and I love them all time, but I still try and show them the toughness they’ll need for this world as well. We all have a piece to a puzzle for our family and destiny to get them to where we all wanna be. Someone has to break the mold.

Vegeta's first noble Sacrifice

[@j2winchester835]

VEGETA MY BOY!!!!!! True Warrior!!!!!!!! And yes EVEN FOR YOU, KAKAROT!!!!! Line gets me every time. This is why Goku&Vegeta friendship/rivalry is LEGENDARY!!!!!

[@AXSLA3]

I think Vegeta vanishing like this will be an atonement similar to tat of Vader in Star Wars saving Luke's life. So he's hopefully keeping his body in the afterlife.

[@uzomaiwuagwu535]

Just the fact that Piccolo and Krillin are MOURNFUL of Vegeta sacrificing himself. They spent the majority of the series hating his guts and you wouldn't blame them if they would've otherwise felt he deserved to die. Just hearing Piccolo acknowledge Vegeta's selfless sacrifice and Krillin even screaming his name tells you that their hatred of him was gone.

[@thefabuloustrash05]

A detail I love in this ep is that Krillin mourned for Vegeta. Such a crazy development since Krillin was the one who original wanted to kill Vegeta when they first met him, calling him an irredeemable monster, but Goku stopped him. Little details like this really show how the characters and their relationships with each other have grown over time.

[@acereporter73]

THAT is what gutted me. The fact that Krillin cried out Vegeta's name twice. 😭😭😭😭😭

[@tafazula8979]

Babidi: I will turn you all to cookies! Piccolo: WELL. LET ME GET HALF OFF 😂
