TheDragon Ballfranchise has gifted the anime world with two of the most potent protagonists. Son Goku and Vegeta remain one of the most iconic pairs. Their transformations have always made the headlines. Late great Akira Toriyama dedicated his entire life to creating the $23 Billion franchise. Apart from the two protagonists, there is another character who has often side-lined the two.
Son Goku’s first son, Gohan, is another Saiyan who shocked the world when he defeated Perfect Cell. Even Goku and Vegeta failed to achieve that task. Even though Gohan is a powerful Saiyan, Vegeta always maintains his rivalry with Goku. There was never any competition between Gohan and the Prince of all Saiyans. The reason for it remains a secret, but fans believe Vegeta shares a different kind of relationship with Gohan in theDragon Ballfranchise.
Fans Might Have Overlooked A Certain Relationship In Dragon Ball Franchise
Vegeta takes pride in calling himself the Prince of all Saiyans. He often appears to be a prideful character with zero respect for others. There were times he felt jealous of Goku for being able to transform into a Super Saiyan and beyond it. His initial anger against Goku ignited his jealousy. He always shared a rivalry with him, even though there was a mutual understanding and respect between the two. The fans often argued between the two regarding their strengths
When Gohan surpassed the other Saiyans during the Cell Games, Vegeta was shocked. But he never bore any hatred or jealousy towards him. Vegeta never had any kind of rivalry againstGohansince he was not someone who might have been a threat. Moreover, Vegeta always stood for the Saiyan race. Since Gohan was also a Saiyan, his initial reaction might have been compassion (except for the time when Gohan Oozaru was on a rampage against him).
WhenVegetastarted to live on Earth, Gohan was still a kid, and it might have been another reason why Vegeta secretly wanted the best out of a fellow Saiyan. When he surpassed everyone, he wanted him to always give his best and got disappointed when he could defeat someone, especially during his fight with Dabura and Majin Buu. But there was always a form of respect between them. He even suggested Gohan’s name for the Tournament of Power in Dragon Ball Super.
Gohan’s Latest Transformation Has Earned Him His Former Glory
Gohan had several powerups in the past, but none of them came closer to his ascended Saiyan transformation against Perfect Cell. Even Mystic Gohan had a lot of potential but could not do justice to his name. When Frieza came to Earth in Dragon Ball Super, Gohan was no help at all. He shifted his focus to studies and training, which made him weaker. But inDragon Ball Super: Super Heroesfilm, he found his former glory.

On a mission to save his daughter, Pan, he underwent a Beast transformation, where his eyes turned red and his hair turned white. Even the lateToriyamasensei said it made him stronger than Goku. Apart from Gohan, his uncle also had an Ultra Ego transformation. Fans got to see Goku vs. Vegeta, but if the fan theory is correct, fans might never get to seeBeast Transformation vs. Ultra Ego.
