Appearance
Vegeta Jr. physically resembles Vegeta, down to his upright standing hairstyle. He also wears an outfit similar to the one his ancestor Vegeta wears during in the 25th World Martial Arts Tournament, except his pants are shorter. He also wears fingerless gloves.
Personality
Even though Vegeta Jr. is only seen for a moment in the series, his personality is shown reminiscent of his ancestor Vegeta. Though unlike Vegeta, Vegeta Jr. seems to be playful and friendly, as he only wanted to fight Goku Jr. for fun rather than to prove superiority. He also praised Goku Jr. for being able to match him in combat and turn Super Saiyan, showing he treats his opponents with respect.
Biography
Dragon Ball GT
Shadow Dragon Saga
Vegeta Jr. is Goku Jr.'s opponent in the World Martial Arts Tournament. The result of their match is never revealed, but both are seen to have the ability to become Super Saiyans, despite the fact that they are both less than one-quarter Saiyan.
Trivia
- Vegeta Jr.'s true heritage is never revealed; Akira Toriyama simply stated in an interview in the Dragon Ball GT: Perfect Files that Vegeta Jr. was a descendant of Vegeta and Bulma.
- Despite his name being Vegeta Junior, he is actually the fifth person in his family to be named Vegeta, as his ancestors were Prince Vegeta, who was in fact Vegeta IV, son of King Vegeta (Vegeta III).
- He is also the first Saiyan hybrid to actually have a Saiyan name (as Bulla was almost named Eschalot by her father) as he is named after Vegeta IV.
