Dragon Ball

Why is Vegeta the "Prince" of all Saiyans? His father the King is dead, meaning that by all rights Vegeta should have inherited said title of "King," and given his prideful nature I don't see why he wouldn't refer to himself by his proper title. What kind of bullshit Disney Princess logic is this?

Prince is an ambiguous title that can just as easily mean ruler as it can heir

I hate to be that guy, but isn't goku technically a saiyan prince as well? he is a saiyan, and he married Chichi, who is literally a princess.

The title used in Japanese is "oji"
>おうじさま (王子様), with the long "o" and short "i" sound, means prince, and it's generally used in the royalty meaning (or the fairy tale meaning). A son of a monarch.

There is no ambiguity.

Bejita-sama is humble
A true role model

The sayajin kingdom was dissolved the moment Freeza took over. King isn't an empty title it's function. Without a kingdom to lord over there's no such thing as a king.

But then doesn't the same apply to to title of prince? Well prince is typically just a honerific title for the son of a king. A prince without a princedom would be a prince no longer. But unlanded sons of king are often refered to as princes and that's a title you hold onto for life even if the monarch title eventually becomes the primary title of the prince.

If by role model you mean a man who's technically a genocidal maniac

The Sayajin kingdom was converted to a puppet society when King Cold assimilated them.
But if you really think about it, there wasn't much to dissolve.
The sayajins had no real society, just a king who ruled over them.
Less than 20 years before Cold conquered them they were still a race of barbarians invading the tuffles.

Toriyama forgot about Ox-King being a King and thus Chi-Chi being a Princess in favor of turning Chi-Chi into a generic Japanese mom and Ox-King into a generic Grandpa who never actually interacts with his grandchildren.

Next chapter will include Moro eating his own arm to get Merus' angel powers. Then Goku will fight him seriously 4reals this time and the chapter will end with no conclusion.

its a real shame toriyama has such a short attention span

He was never officially coronated as the new king so he remains a prince for the rest of his days.

Goku was never coronated or recognized as such so no.

I really hate how the Cell saga and especially the Buu Saga took the creative and fun world of the original Dragon Ball and turned into a boring copy of the real world.

>Zarbon, don't be a sore loser you can't transform!
>Transform freeza, you won't get that much stronger!
>If only you could sense my super saiyna power you would run away from here in tears, Freeza!
>Don't you dare destroy those androids before they wake up, if you do I will kill you!
>16,17,18 how dare you ignore me! Are you saying I am beneath kakkarot? Get back here and fight me!
>Just let cell absorb 17 and 18! Less opponents to fight!
>Go ahead and become perfect, Cell. I hope you'll at least give me a slight challenge.
>Majin Buu is clearly inferior to our superior saiyan might! Who cares if he gets released?

Kek.

That would technically make him a king instead of a prince.

ah well, he's a stuck up self conceited prick, but we all love him.

>Ox-King into a generic Grandpa who never actually interacts with his grandchildren.
That's a good point. I honestly can't recall any canon moments of Ox-King speaking with Gohan or Goten. He's always just there standing in the background.

He never had a proper ceremony, almost every saiyans died and the planet is destroyed

Based Vegetard

no one else but only him call himself the prince of all saiyan , funny thing is he kill all the saiyan that call him the prince , let alive that goku and broly never will respect him as prince .

the prince of saiyan is more likely the prince of himself .

Probably because he wasn't properly "crowned" or something like that.

>Prince" of all Saiyans
there are only 2 saiyan .

there are at minimum 4

vegeta , goku , broly and turles .

3 out of 4 either dont care he is prince or nobody or hate him so much just want him dead .

saiyan also is the extremely endangered species , not that i care or anything , because no one care at all .

Same reason why Wilhelm III. is called Prince of Prussia instead of German Emperor
If the title is defunct, then you can't inherit it.

>What kind of bullshit Disney Princess logic is this?
At least Disney has recently relented on this "no queens" policy with Frozen.

>Why is Vegeta the "Prince" of all Saiyans?

Toriyama dumb.
He doesn't even like Bagel-eat-ah.

>Vegeta should have inherited said title of "King
In what ceremony?

king of what ?
