Editing King Vegeta (section)

==Personality==
King Vegeta is portrayed as bold, arrogant, and boastful, yet level-headed and clever, symbolizing Saiyan pride. He is ruthless and merciless, enjoying the downfall of his enemies, traits he passed on to his son Vegeta. Although he accepted the reality of Saiyan subjugation under Frieza, he concealed this from his people.

In the Funimation dub and ''Dragon Ball Super: Broly'', King Vegeta shows a jealous side, particularly regarding [[Broly (Dragon Ball Super)|Broly]]'s potential surpassing his son's. He opts to banish Broly to a remote planet rather than execute him, recognizing the potential danger Broly's power could pose.

Despite his ruthlessness, King Vegeta cares for his son, Vegeta, though he was embarrassed by his younger son, Tarble's weakness, choosing banishment over execution for him as well. His elitist views led him to believe only those of high power levels, like his son, could become Super Saiyans, though this belief was later challenged by [[Goku]]'s transformation.

King Vegeta is also pragmatic, willing to swallow his pride when faced with superior foes like Frieza and [[Beerus]], although he made mistakes that led to dangerous consequences. His pride in Saiyan heritage and his strict, often ruthless leadership were essential for maintaining control over his warrior race.
