In the world of Akira Toriyama’sDragon Ball,numerous concepts and techniques have been showcased, which have elevated to become a core concept of the franchise. This includes the Senzu Beans, the SSJ transformations, and wishes using the seven mystical orbs, but one that transcends all of these is the iconic fusion transformations.
Introduced for the first time in the non-canon film,Dragon Ball Z: Fusion Rebornand even inGT,which showcased Goku and Vegeta doing the Fusion dance to transform into a new character Gogeta, which allowed them to have incredible strength for a limited period of time. The popularity of the character soared, and later during the Buu Saga, Vegito was introduced where again, both Goku and Vegeta fused using the Potara earrings to fuse into Vegito.
While viewers enjoy watching these two, who would take down any threat with ease, they would prefer Gogeta over Vegito any day. Though it sounds appalling to some, it is true, and they give a reason that might be even crazier!
Gogeta’s Popularity Takes Over theDragon BallFranchise
When it comes to surprising his viewers with iconic techniques,Akira Toriyamais the Picasso of it. Time and again, he has introduced several concepts that have elevated the show’s allure, with the fusion boosting the strength of two characters by several folds for a limited time.
While the franchise has showcased a number of methods, the most common methods of fusing remain the Metamoran fusion dance and Potara Earrings. Though Vegeta hates the idea of fusion because of his Saiyan pride, he succumbs to the strategy when all hope seems to be lost.
As a result, he agreed to use the Potara earrings to become Vegito by fusing with his Saiyan counterpart, Kakarot. However, later in 2018, the series finally made Gogeta canon to the series, along withBroly. Despite the late canon status, he was much more popular among the fans.

Since he is the union of two protagonists of the series, he has immense strength, often leading to overconfidence and having a bold personality. However, when you are the strongest mortal being, having such confidence becomes a part of you.
This also showcases how Toriyama-Sensei cleverly showcased Kakarot’s laid-back attitude of not taking things seriously, while the Saiyan Prince often lets his pride and ego get the better of him. Thus, mixing the two traits would only lead to being called overconfident.

Dragon Ballalso features the Potara fusion method, where Vegito, a more dominant character, would first break the morale of his opponent with his ruthless insults and then take them out with flair and perfection. Sadly, he is not the preferred one in theDBcommunity.
When a user decided to take the question toReddit, asking,“Why do fans seem to like Gogeta so much more than Vegito?”This summoned the entire fandom, who revealed that they have a secret reason they prefer the former. The fans commented,
Nevertheless, watching Goku’s fun side take over Gogeta is always hilarious, where he would mock his foe so much that at one point in time, they would leave the battle out of embarrassment.
