Warning: contains spoilers for Dragon Ball Super: Chapter 78
The differences between Dragon Ball’s Goku and Vegeta used to be night and day, with Goku being the silly, carefree fighter with Vegeta acting as the cold, calculating warrior who fights for the glory of the Saiyan race. However, in the latest chapter of Dragon Ball Super, Vegeta proves to be just as clueless as Goku.
In Dragon Ball Super Chapter 78 by Akira Toriyama and Toyotarou, Goku and Vegeta ceased fighting against Granolah after it was revealed that the Saiyans were not the bounty hunter’s true enemies. Granolah finds out that Goku’s father, Bardock, saved him and his mother during the invasion of his planet by Frieza’s Saiyan army many years prior. On top of that, Granolah discovers another group of villains, the Heeters, were the ones who were directly responsible for his mother’s death. The Heeters arrive where the Saiyans were fighting Granolah and challenge all of them to a fight to the death after their leader wished upon the Dragon Balls to become the strongest in the universe. Before the fight, however, Goku reveals that Vegeta made a tactical error.
Battle-ridden already, Vegeta and Goku needed the healing power of a Senzu Bean before going up against the overpowered Gas and the rest of the Heeters. Coincidently, Vegeta had a Senzu Bean in his armor, though his armor was far away from where the battle was to ensue after Vegeta threw off his armor while fighting Granolah. A Senzu Bean can mean the difference between life and death while fighting on the level of Vegeta and Goku, so to throw one away while battling a foe as powerful as Granolah is more careless than Vegeta has shown being in the past.
Disregarding any tactical resources while in battle is a move most fans have come to expect from Goku, but Vegeta is much more calculating during a fight, but throwing a Senzu Bean away like that is Goku-level cluelessness. However, it may have been more of a show of pride rather than carelessness when Vegeta threw away the life-saving substance. When Vegeta retrieved the Senzu Bean before the fight with Gas, he took it to the beaten-down Granolah instead of taking it himself. Granolah asks Vegeta why he didn’t take the Senzu while they were fighting, and Vegeta tells him he would never use such methods to win a fight as that would be cowardly.
While it is possible that Vegeta’s pride was the deciding factor in throwing away a Senzu Bean, that seems to be more of a justification of his careless action. Vegeta is prideful, but he isn’t stupid, and if faced with either death or the chance to keep fighting, Vegeta will keep fighting all day. Vegeta most likely wouldn’t throw away a Senzu Bean on purpose, which means he carelessly tossed it away while in the heart of battle, proving that Vegeta is just as clueless as Goku as shown in their latest Dragon Ball adventure.
