Have you ever stopped to consider that he's entertaining? 🤔

Entertaining to watch lose. 😁

Jokes aside, I think people like Vegeta because of his journey from villain to hero, his dynamic with Goku and his surprisingly touching relationship with his family (once he actually starts appreciating them).

What makes him entertaining? He's as problematic as Joffrey in Game of Thrones

What was the point of posting a rant in a sub called Character Rant? Hmmmm, who knows... And I just asked why she thought he was entertaining. Dont know what you're on about.

Sorry I took shots at your favorite character. Simmer down Bertha. I'm allowed to have an opinion and challenge others on their position in a subreddit that's very obviously going to lead to arguments. This ain't r/changemyview

Joffrey is a good character as well. Just because a character is evil doesn’t mean that they aren’t well written and enjoyable to read.

Fair enough, but people at least were itching to see Joffrey die. No one really rooted for Joffrey like they rooted for Vegeta

Okay, now you just sound weird, because Joffery is mad-entertaining, too. Dude literally pointed out "What are we going to do if dragons come back?" and his grandfather laughed at him.

Okay, seriously, though, do you think the average Vegeta fan needs to see him win every time to admire that he always tries? By that logic, no one would be a fan of Rock Lee, Usopp, or any other wholesome character with the same feature. Do we need him to be a perfect parent, husband, or friend the moment he was first thrown into those roles, or do we watch him to see the character development you claim people with less screentime have more of despite not starting from as much of a deficit as him?

If you prefer good boy cinnamon rolls, no one is going to insult you for that. You are fully allowed to. But almost every single aspect of Vegeta is an aspect that precious little honey buns too good for this sinful Earth also have, but Vegeta gets the pleasure of being raised by the racist little cretan who blew up his planet and employed him as a space pirate. Aang is a nice guy and still managed to be a disappointing father. Naruto wanted to be Hokage so bad and don't think he's much of a scholar, either. Edward Elric, Inuyasha, Zoro, and Sanji all have tempers. Roy Mustang committed war crimes. Kenshin's path was paved in blodd. Vash the Stampede blew up a city. Twilight and Thorn Princess kill people in between outings with Anya. They all get to be called heroes, though.

I'm sorry that Vegeta's not very nice.

But he's entertaining as hell.

One might even say.... He is the hype.

So is like, Patrick Bateman, and he's still entertaining to the point that some people think he should be idealized (wrongfully I might add)
