Vegeta eating hot wings

On this Wikipedia the language links are at the top of the page across from the article title. This article is about the Dragon Ball character. Dragon Ball franchise created by Akira Toriyama. Vegeta eating hot wings is the prince of an extraterrestrial warrior race known as the Saiyans.

Vegeta has been hailed as one of the most iconic characters not only in the Dragon Ball franchise, but also in manga and anime history as a whole. You can help by adding to it. When creating Vegeta, Toriyama originally intended for him to be a short-lived antagonist and second-tier character, with little influence to Dragon Ball’s story, portraying him as such during his initial appearances, but the character became more popular than he had expected. Thus Toriyama decided to keep Vegeta in the story for longer. Toriyama initially harbored a dislike for Vegeta since he was created as a despicable character, but grew to like him as he considered the character’s personality to be straightforward, therefore easier to write. Following the trend that names of members of the Saiyan race are puns on vegetables, Vegeta’s name is a pun of the word vegetable itself.

In the original Japanese version of the anime and all other media, Vegeta is voiced by Ryō Horikawa. In the Ocean Productions English dub, Vegeta was voiced by Brian Drummond. Drummond returned in the Funimation dub of Dragon Ball Super to voice Vegeta’s Duplicate. Christopher Sabat has voiced Vegeta in all Dragon Ball media, including video games.

In Brazil, where Dragon Ball is a huge success, Vegeta has been voiced by Alfredo Rollo since his debut. He travels to Earth with his partner Nappa to use the Dragon Balls to wish for immortality. Vegeta travels to planet Namek in an attempt to wish for immortality using that planet’s Dragon Balls, cutting the tyrant Frieza off from making the same wish in the process. Upon arrival, Vegeta manages to kill many of Frieza’s henchmen and also mercilessly destroys a defenseless Namekian village for their Dragon Ball. Vegeta’s first few appearances in the anime depicted him with a radically different color scheme.
