Hmm very interesting take. What would be the difference between warrior and martial artist in real life?

[@BeHumbleOkay]

@@MegaSolidninjaGoku’s focus is on the art of fighting itself as a passion, whereas Vegeta is only focused on being the winner out of pride. Vegeta is attached to the outcome of the battle and this makes him rigid, whereas Goku isn’t and this gives him an edge

[@ishowspeedplug2845]

I totally get what you mean and it sounds great but both are warriors, it’s not like vegeta did not master super saiyan later on .

[@cgrandall625]

If we're ignoring the obvious, well plot had to happen, then I think it's not a case of talent or skill deficiency that prevented Vegeta from matching the same level of power of Goku and Gohan, but more a mindset issue. Goku and Gohan are both Earthlings and therefore they view skills and techniques as tools to improve and finetune. Vegeta is a Saiyan through and through who also grew up with his homeland's views and legends/folklore. He very well could of seen Super Saiyan as the pinnacle of Saiyan biology, a capstone of his people's history. So turning that power inward to work for him might of been a harder bottleneck to break through. It's very clear he relished the rush of emotions tied to the form and it's more symbolic representation to his people, which I think could of led to a subconscious effort to maintain it as is. Very simply he grew up being told Super Saiyan was the endgame, so it makes sense trying to imagine what would come after that would be harder for him. Goku would, and has never had, that kind of reservation. Because very early on in his martial arts journey he was taught by Master Roshi that there will always be a further horizon, and a more powerful fighter out there. Hell that was the entire plot of the first tournament arc in DB with Jackie Chun.

[@theblackprotagonist5936]

Had nothing to do with Goku, and all to do with Gohans raw talent and ability. By Trunks and Goten they’re turning ssj at will when they’re like 9.

[@wiseman5647]

@theblackprotagonist5936 negative sir, yes Gohans abilities is a factor but so is Goku's teaching. When Gohan 1st went ssj and he was struggling to maintain the form what did Goku tell Gohan? " you've got to calm down and try to focus your energy ". Was that not a teaching moment? Look at Broly all the power in the world but doesn't know how to control it.

[@EndoScorpion]

5:38 As effective as the training on Yardrat was, I'd say Goku's training on the Lookout with Kami and Mr Popo was what made the biggest difference to Goku. He came back from that a changed man. Sure, he'd grown up physically, but he'd made a massive leap mentally; being a lot more mature. He was a lot calmer, and more contained and in control. He'd learnt to focus more and meditate. Pretty sure Kami was the one to teach the Earthlings how to fully control and manipulate their ki; surpress it, sense it, power it up, etc. In contrast, the first time Vegeta ever trained was in preparation for the Androids. He had to figure it all out as he went along. Taking on board some things, but ignoring other things because his pride got in the way (not wanting to do something because Goku did it that way). Yet another example in Z of Vegeta's massive ego weighing him down and holding him back. Look at what Vegeta achieved during the 3 years training for the androids. Now imagine how much further along he would've been had he been training during the 1.5 - 2 years after Namek / before Frieza arrived on Earth. Even more so if he had a mentor like Kami.

[@jruler93]

Basically, it came down to Vegeta being a warrior, Goku being a martial artist and Dragon Ball (at its core) being about martial arts.

[@raimundo6831]

In that case, Tien would technically be stronger than Vegeta if he were a saiyan because he'd be a much more strategic fighter because of his martial arts skills and knowledge of combat to surpass him in the hyperbolic time chamber.

[@artistanthony1007]

It is pretty clear that he needed a positive environment and just picking Vegeta alone just blocked chances of obtaining the state, Gohan picked his dad while was having a fun time with him so he was able to reach & get that form. Vegeta also still was evil deep down and showed this when giving up to Babidi to obtain Majin so with that root problem, MSSJ could not be obtained and as we see even after DBZ, he still does not have MSSJ.

[@JustSomeDude848]

Just wanna say how much i like the intro. Instant nostalgia.

[@lemguins7031]

I think that the big difference is that Goku discovered form 2 through acclimating to the base form perfectly and during training, feeling that there was something more only after seeing Gohan near the edge of that discovery. After witnessing Gohan's unlocking of form 2, Vegeta probably felt out that power, knew what it should be like and just discovered that mastery of base isn't a requirement, and out of pride worked to force the state by the means of just powering up to that level required needed without coaxing it out with finesse on emotions. It's sort of the same deal but different context/mechanics with how God ki was unlocked for him as opposed to how goku did it and their ultra powers, with Goku reigning his thoughts in and refining them even more, While Vegeta forces his form through tenacity yet again.

[@danielhenry4365]

I think both Vegeta & Trunks tried to follow the Mastering SS1 Grade 1 route (Inspired by Goku/Gohan) during their 2nd trip into the Room of Spirit and Time | Hyperbolic Time Chamber - but did not progress to the degree of Goku/Gohan. They seemed to completely abandon the Grade 2 form after the 2nd time entering the chamber. But I do believe that after their 2nd Time Chamber training, their standard SS1 forms surpassed their Grade 2 selves (Pre-2nd Time Chamber training).

[@christophersanchez7731]

The real reason was that Vegeta and Goku took different approaches in their training Vegeta thought SS wasn’t enough, it needed to surpassed He ultimately thought upgrading it by channeling ki in his muscles would increase his power, making Ultra Grade Super Saiyan or Super Vegeta Trunks thought doing it more would surpass Cell Goku realized that Super Saiyan wasn’t complete, that it needed to be mastered by making it like their natural state, his training resulted in Mastered or Full Power Super Saiyan He didn’t need to upgrade Super Saiyan, only mastering it to a point there’s less Ki consumption, less ferocity, and resulting in more power Vegeta coukdnt beat Cell in part because he haven’t yet mastered Super Saiyan at the time, focusing more in raw power than a balanced mastered form

[@CrownxMe7]

Plot.. although he wouldn’t have beaten Cell, common sense says Vegeta should’ve been able to beat the Cell Jr’s going in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber TWICE.

[@natakuu13]

Agreed. He should have been able to kill at least his own cell jr. The reason he didnt even after getting stronger the second time i think is because he completely abandoned the grade 2. He pushed his base form to a point where his ssj g1= first hbtc ssj g2 power. Which i think is stupid. He should have gone ssj g2 vs the cell jr and had way more power to deal with it. G2 is 5/4th the power of standard ssj. So i think its dumb he completely threw that form away after seeing goku come out of the hbtc. If he went g2 after his second round of training he would have been stronger than goku, but less efficient. But in all honesty who cares. As we saw, g2 wasnt that much more draining. Vegeta was easily able to have a full fight in that form and still have energy left. So i never could understand why he completely abandoned it

[@dariusbattle9503]

The whole stressing the body thing was crazy lol especially since saiyans have no limits or break them continuously either way vegeta two years of training should have been at least strong as cell jr plot or not

[@natakuu13]

[@DADRB0B55]

The power scaling got pretty bad near the end of the cell saga, piccolos fusing with Kami was also pretty useless since he was even weaker than Vegeta & Cell jr Gohan being the strongest I understand since he was supposed to be the hero but Goku was weaker than Vegeta during the androids saga so when did Goku training method surpass Vegeta when it was worse inferior during the 3 year gap before 19 & Gero showed up.

[@natakuu13]

@DADRB0B55 the thing is, gohan wasnt stronger than them if you consider them all just at base form. The only thing that made gohan stronger was 2 things at the same time. He was the only one to ascend to ssj 2 and he also got one of his famous rage boosts he always gets in each saga. Even with him being a little weaker than goku and vegeta having a full +50x multiplier over them pushed him far ahead. His rage boost at the time of breaking through to ssj2 might have made him equal to goku and vegeta and then basically he had the +50x making him twice their power levels while they are at their peak of ssj at that time.

[@sethnaffziger1402]

I think Goku had the right idea for the training, but with the time allowed he was not strong enough to take full advantage of the "mastered" super saiyan... this is why they left early and he wasn't worried about winning. He knew Gohan had already acheived that level and Cell was no longer a threat in his eyes. Thus, I'd have to imagine that any saiyan with higher potential than Goku, and his insight and training could have achieved the mastered super saiyan in a similar time... I don't know if Trunks or Vegetas mastery would have made much of a difference (like Goku) given just how much of a T-1000 Cell is, or Gohan's unprecidented latent ability... but I am convinced that if Trunks or Vegeta trained the way Goku and Gohan had they could have acheived grade 4.... ascending to ssj2 however would probably have taken longer- definitely at least for Vegeta, but probably Trunks as well... I like how it played out though, it left plenty of room for doubt and suspense after all. "why isn't Goku going back in? korin doesnt think hes strong enough" etc etc. I think at this point Vegeta may have still had too much to learn to get there, but if he had swallowed his pride and tried to learn, i do think he has greater potential than Goku, its more his philosopy that was holding him back

Disagree about vegeta being self taught. He was a saiyan elite, he received elite training as a young child. He is also a skilled tactical fighter. The reason he couldn't master super saiyan is due to his philosophy of pushing himself with intensity instead of mastering the basics.

He was too dense and angry back then and meditation was the last thing in his mind.

[@Chronoic]

Vegeta only wanting to train solo, is not plot only. Its who Vegeta is, Vegeta looks down on anyone weaker than him, its not until DB Super that he change. Goku on the other hand is willing to train with a weaker person because he understands it makes him stronger too, thats how Goku was raised he was always stronger when trained with someone else. While in the time chamber Goku quickly learn the grade 2 and 3 were a weakness, While Vegeta didn't because Goku while people claim he is dumb is very smart when it comes to fighting techniques. Honestly Vegeta was the worst person to go into the time chamber with, Trunks should of went with Goku, Piccolo, or even Tein, because they would of trained with him and been better teachers even if they were weaker. But I think the reason he went in with Vegeta was to spend time with his father, but instead, he got ignored. Just think about it, Chibi Trunks didn't even get strong because of Vegeta, he got strong because he fought alot with Goten. Vegeta didn't even know he was that strong, and in one short training secession with Goku, Trunks and Goten learn how to go SSJ3 as Gotenks and was able to achieve a huge increase in power as Gotenks with Piccolo in the time chamber.

[@eltinoskimota]

[@TheManWhoFlys22]

Its pretty simple actually, goku went in and spared with gohan getting the most out of training, vegeta essentially went in solo and what im guessing is punched air and excercised by himself, just like irl youre not going to become a better fight without sparing.

The "human" plot. Whatever fantasy we have written that involves humans, some level.of human nature makes us infallible. Justice league for example, batman is basically S tier.

This is actually a good point, the fact that anger and pride become a problem in training is a great plot point for why Vegeta is behind Goku; the thing is that after Vegeta's character development in the Buu's saga and now Super, Vegeta will probably (if not by plot) be stronger than Goku since, by nature, Vegeta is a superior class warrior and would be really cool to see, at least in one saga, where Vegeta is the dude that destroys the main villain

The simplicity is that the zenkai boost sayians get is important it raises base power. Also another thing was the simple phrase you all forgot to master super sayin - "We stayed in super sayin and then got used to it and no longer had a KI DRAIN" - GOHAN The KI DRAIN is the real reason Trunks and Vegeta couldn't get to grade 4. Grade 4 is mastered super sayin and simply put. "YOU CAN NOT HAVE THE FULL POWER IF YOU HAVE A MASSIVE ENERGY DRAIN." Notice all the old fight how they only went super sayin if it was NEEDED. Grade 4 requires you to acclimate to the form and get used to it and the you can release the full power of the form. SS3 has this same drawback but Goku never just entered the form and focused on controlling his ki drain like in SS1. SS2 is SS1 Grade 5 = SS2 full power of Grade 3 and the speed bonus of Grade 4

They just went two different ways about it. Simple as that. Vegeta only worried about increasing his power and goku focused on stamina in the super sayian form. Goku's way just happened to be better.

[@justinschmelzel8806]

I think the biggest difference goes all the way back to Roshi. Work hard, study well and eat and sleep plenty. The idea of taking it slow and letting the body recover as an important step to get stronger we see was completely foreign to him. In every one of vegeta's training sessions we see the same method he breaks his body throws some bandages on and keeps pushing until he either gets to a new level or more bandages aren't enough. For this reason the concept of slowing down to get used to the form and resting was beyond his ability to understand. Even upon seeing goku and gohan he wouldn't have figured out they achieved it by slowing down and working their way up to it. Because that doesn't exist for him as a method to gain strength. And trunks couldn't figure it out for the same reason. He had only ever seen the method his dad used or gohan had used, which was all about survival because future gohan had only gotten basic training from piccolo because his dad died. No turtle hermit way.

Vegeta also has issues with his morality which shows the most with Buu Saga where he had shown villainous behavior by giving up to Babadi and so he can't achieve the pure state that is Mastered Super Saiyan and just show love & have a fun time with Trunks and Trunks not obtaining MSSJ is because he was with Vegeta despite him being pure and have good intentions like Goku and Gohan, it was clear that Trunks choosing Vegeta and fight with him alone prevented obtaining the form, he got Grade 4 which shows part of that and why he was really close but not there.

The difference between Goku and Vegeta in DBZ is simple. Goku possessed the right thinking. Vegeta did not. The right mindset unlocked knowledge, strength and inner peace.

Love it!

[@Ryan-uq7kj]

Interesting points, but yeah it's just plot. We all know that Vegeta and Trunks weren't going to be allowed to keep up with Goku and Gohan no matter how things played out. Especially at that time.

This honestly didn’t need to video, anyone with a brain knows the answer to this😂

He didn’t wanna copy Goku flow word for word bar for bar

[@trojantony195]

Without plot armor vegeta would be the strongest, he trains harder than gohan and goku combined, trained in 450x gravity. Gohan already had his hidden powers unlocked, became SSJ2 and without training in 7 years was able to unlock more powers greater than ssj3. Straight BS, justice for vegeta

[@goodguycwyzz4768]

Just like real life some people have better genes and better physical potential than others. Vegeta has some good genetics but not Goku / Gohan level. He can train harder but it won’t make the difference against natural talent

[@hotzcakezp1600]

It’s simple. “Plot” armor

[@grasshopper-ln9us]

I bet if they hired you to write Dragon Ball Super wouldn't be so pussified

[@burdy1990]

Ok, ok what if they were actually a team and went all 4 of them the second time. Probably they would have learned a bit from each other and they would have been more balanced in ki, speed, strength. Surely they would have been much stronger, much faster, with more accurate ki blasts.

[@Am4t3r4su]

The cell saga and many moments before demonstrated that Goku was a genius of combat overall. He took the time to meditate instead of physically train himself whereas vegeta never took any time to work on his mind and relied solely on raw strength and pride over anything else. This is also why Dragon ball Super annoyed me so badly as well. During one of the training scenes with Whis, they basically retconned all of gokus intelligence in DBZ and made him a complete jug head in all regards and even had the audacity to make Vegeta the one who was meditating instead of goku and making it seem like he hadn't been doin that in the past. Gonna be honest, Super was... not a great addition to dragonball as a whole. It should have ended with Z.

Why is vegeta so tall

He wished to be taller using the dragon balls 😂😂

Actually, i don't have any idea why didn't vegeta and trunks didn't use grade 2 or 3 super saiyan against Cell Jr.

[@michaelcarpenter6345]

Mastered super saiyan just sounds weird to me... I'm just more familiar with the terms super saiyan grade 4 or Super saiyan full power

[@JesusRodriguez-gu1wv]

Pretty different from how Super handles things. Here it looka like Vegeta's pride and evil personality prevented him from reaching his full potential, leading to him want to do things his own way only to fail as his way was compared to Goku was wrong. The strength in the story is tied to philosophy of the characters and shows that Goku someome who learns and works with others is stronger then vegeta who is selfish and prideful refusing to work with anybody. In Super its opposite, Vegeta goes blue evolved or ultra ego because of the same reason, being prideful and arrogent which does not contrast well with Goku. But super Goku is stupid and sadly is the person toriyama intended for him to be. This series is so weird now how Goku in super is who he was meant to be yet Z and dragonball make him out to be the exact opposite with only hints of that persona being here in there but overshadowed by his other qualities. Now Vegeta feels more like Goku and Goku feels more like Vegeta.
