Vegeta (ベジータ Bejīta) is a fictional character, and antihero in the Dragon Ball franchise created by Akira Toriyama. Vegeta first appeared in the manga chapter #204 Sayōnara Son Gokū (さようなら孫悟空 Goodbye Son Goku) first published in Weekly Shōnen Jump magazine on December 19, 1988, and in episode 5 of its anime adaptation Dragon Ball Z. Vegeta was originally a dangerous enemy who sought to use the Dragon Balls to gain immortality, but later became an anti-hero as even greater threats were introduced in the series. In the series, Vegeta is a member of the royal Saiyan lineage, the extraterrestrial race that the series' main character is from. Even though Vegeta is viewed as a dangerous enemy to Goku for the beginning of the series, he later becomes a trusted ally to Goku with his assistance in the defeat of powerful enemies such as Cell and Majin Buu. He always strives to "surpass Kakarrot (Goku's birth name)."
