Episode 8: Goku Shows Up!  A Last Chance from Lord Beerus!?

 

 

Recap:  With Beerus now turning violent, Piccolo, Tien, Android 18, Gohan, Gotenks, and Majin Buu all attempt to stop him, with all of them failing.  Beerus seems unstoppable.  In a fit of rage, Bulma comes up and slaps him.  Furious at the insult, Beerus slaps her away and severely hurts her.  Vegeta, in a fit of rage at seeing Bulma hurt, goes Super Saiyan and powers up to fight Beerus.

note: there is a retcon at work here

 

 

in the classic series Planet Vegeta was destroyed right after Goku was born

 

in Super it has now been retconned so that it wasn't destroyed until 3 years later, this is to explain how vegeta knew about Beerus, since the scene shown where Vegeta was seeing him threaten King Vegeta would not be possible otherwise, because Vegeta would have already been off-world with Freiza at the time

How is SS Vegeta stronger than SS3 Goku?

several canonical reasons

 

1. when Vegeta says he and Goku are different "Breeds" he means it literally, Saiyans came in specifically bred varieties, with Goku's breed being dumb wall-of-meat soldiers and Vegetas being built to be a leader class and excelling in speed and attack strength as well as intelligence

2. all of Vegeta's transformations are of equivalent power to the form that comes after Gokus, and he skips past several forms because of this. I.e. he cannot use Super Saiyan 3 and his version of Super Saiyan 2 has the same equivalent power as Goku's Super Saiyan 3 form

3. vegeta is in general a more competent fighter than Goku, Vegeta has legitimate honest to goodness Saiyan Warrior training, Goku's strength comes from directionless aggression, so the real reason for Goku's victories is a complete disregard for safety, Vegeta knows how to focus his attacks on an opponant thus delivering ALL damadge to the opponant, Goku just blows up everything around him and that usually works
