vegeta sacraficed himself for the greater good, just like kakarot did when he fought cell.
Your example of him crying literally just that, one example. The movies don't coincide with the storyline of the show. Therefore, talking about the movies as if they do concide with the show makes no sense. Vegeta crying because his planet exploded is a good enough reason to cry.
LOL at you saying that what Vegeta did to achieve strength is "cheating."
You think that there's a commitee of saiyans checking for people who used steriods to ascend to the next level? Lol wut?
Did you forget about the hyperbolic time chamber? That thing was basically steriods. Oh, you're not strong enough to beat this villian? Train in the HTC.
Oh you got your butt whooped by your enemy, take a senzu bean. Oh, you died? Gather the dragon balls. Do you understand what I'm saying?
Vegeta would have turned SS, whether or not goku had turned SS.
Vegeta was all about getting stronger so eventually, he would have turned SS.
Goten/Trunks being able to turn SS is evidence of that.
Now you're just troilling.
Vegeta is one of the most developed characters in the show. Piccolo is probably second.
Goku doesn't have as much depth as Vegeta.
Vagetta cried telling goku he could never be better than him before he blew himself up,
and right before freeza killed him. What are you talking about? That broly beg and cry is just extra
What was vagettas first main objective??? Get the dragon balls to wish for immortality. That's not cheating? Lol
Only 3 times was he even strong enough to compete.
1. First came to earth vs goku
2. Against clown android
3. Against imperfect cell which he let get away anyway
The rest of the time he was on the sidelines standing next to krillin talking like uncle Rico "I could do it guy, I can do it".
You can't win this one bro. Let me say this again, vagetta bowed down to the ayo alien that killed his dad and destroyed his home that he was so proud of.
It's over
