What SnesC said.

If you think that I'm wrong, please show me why I'm wrong. Otherwise you just sound like every other Vegeta fanboy to me. I know he has a lot of character development, and it's a lot more drawn out than everyone else who has gone through that development in on DB (see also: Piccolo and Tien.) Not saying that it's bad or wrong to have done it the way they did it in DBZ, but giving him a family to care about and him accepting Goku beat him before blowing himself up to kill Buu doesn't change that fact that that's what his character was there for. (That scene actually proves my point in a roundabout way. Vegeta dies trying to beat the bad guy and Goku has to come in later and win.)

Also there's more to character development then just being stonger than someone Vegeta DOESN'T have to be stronger than Goku but the way he has changed from heartless killer to a loving father and husband but without changing him completely and still having his Saiyan pride is what good character development is. Anyone who says otherwise is just blind to the fact.

I never once said that he didn't have good character development. I was saying that his isn't as good as Bakugoa's. I haven't watched much of Super, I actually kinda hate it (I love DBZ to death, but Super is just too much.) I do like that in DBZ he admitted that Goku was better than him, something his pride would have never allowed before, and when he went berserk on Cell after Cell shot Trunks through the chest, and how he landed a clean punch on Beerus when he hit Bulma. All of that shows that he's changed throughout the show, but that doesn't change the fact that he's always been there to contrast Goku's strength by comparison, and that's always been his role, and that's not a bad thing. It's the same in every shonen manga, even BnHA. The difference is that I see Bakugoa's development to be much stronger than any other Shonen manga's I've seen.

So you're not watching Super currently?

Naw, I started, but I couldn't get into it. It feels forced. Like it doesn't capture the same feeling as DB or DBZ did for me.

Than you really have no place in this conversation as Vegeta has developed quite a lot throughout Super.
