from what I understand this episode is another "lets kinda point out that Vegeta is the only member of the team with any common sense...while still making him look stupid" episodes

Goku dies?  Spoiler much, narrator?

Guess the brain damage finally did him in.

Unusually serious, atmospheric, and foreboding for Super...

LMAO never mind.

They're still training with Whis?

LOL Vegeta

 

LOL Whis

I'll admit I get what Super was trying to do with Vegeta....and in other hands it could've been excellent and made Vegeta more loveable, but IMO the way they handled it comes across more as them making fun of him

rather than them making him a Comically serious action character

in fact Piccolo does that character type way better

I have the old Bandai figure of that nerdy Gohan, with exchangable Super Saiyan head and removable glasses.  Gohan what happened to you? 

I wanna see Goten in Saiyaman outfit!

Breaking the fourth wall again?

Naw you just have a stick up your butt and a weird fanboy complex about Vegeta.  No one else has an issue.

if Vegeta occasionally said things like what Piccolo said in that last scene but got to defeat major enemies in the more serious arcs I would enjoy it

heck some of the best heroes are partially comedic ones

it's just the super excessive nature of most of the jokes aimed at him that pisses me off....like making him suck a binky

and the fact that the only time he gets to beat enemies is during meaningless tornaments

 

the only truly cool thing he's done was mentor Cabba

which IMO is made cooler by the fact that Kai's ending inadvertently implies Goku stole his strategy for mentoring Uub from Vegeta

I'm happy about the fight with Cabba...and hate everything else they've done with Vegeta

 

so far Cabba is the one truly nice thing Vegeta's done

A blue elf man with Vegeta's hair heh.

there've been a lot of Background characters who look like Palate swaps of Vegeta actually, moreso in Z than in Super

Classic desert wasteland battleground haha.

You ARE a little kid.

It's like when Ichigo and Aizen went god-level and no one could sense them.

Hit DOES know about the Dragon Balls, right?

It was never even explained how Goku got around the time skipping.

Hit even more hax now.

Looked like a concentrated chi, like how they would push each other around at times.

Uhh the Arale episode.  And tonight where he said there only 3 more exercises.

Stuff like that is funny though.  Or the time he was trying to entertain Beerus (in the movie, at least.)  You just can't take a joke at Vegeta's expense.  Hell that was part of what made Bulma and Vegeta such a great couple, how she'd do and say stuff that would crack his tough, serious exterior.

You have very selective fanboy standards.  Now tournaments are meaningless hahaha.  That tournament was obviously setting things up and teasing future things.  So not meaningless.

If you want to play that game, nobody has beaten "a major enemy ouside of meaningless tournaments."  No one beat Beerus.  Goku only beat Frieza because he failed to finish him off, which lead to Frieza pulling a cheap shot (which should have blown himself up too now that I think about it), which lead to Goku pulling a cheap shot of his own with the help of Whis' power.  No one beat Zamasu and they ended up pulling a literal deus ex machina to get rid of him.

I dunno I think Vegeta has had plenty of great moments.  Like in Zamasu Saga or whatever it's called, one-shotting Frost.  As I mentioned before, he is responsible for Goku and Vegeta's progress.  And at least in this show, Vegeta is on par with Goku.  In Z he was always playing catch up, or when he was stronger than Goku, it was against a minor enemy, or he would do something idiotic like let Cell absorb 18.
