When it came to couples, Akira Toriyama did a great job with the Dragon Ball franchise. Goku and Chi-Chi, Vegeta and Bulma, and Gohan and Videl are great couples. Goku and Gohan’s choices could be understood since they fell in love with the better halves. But Vegeta and Bulma’s pair has always been a bit surprising.
The fans thought the latter would end up marrying Yamcha, instead she upgraded to a Saiyan Prince. There have been several fan theories surrounding the couple. The fans even shared their opinions on Reddit about how the relationship is currently going. They came up with some pretty hilarious punch lines.
Bulma Might Have Manipulated Vegeta Into Marrying Her
Vegeta, the Prince of all Saiyans, marrying an ordinary human was something the fans could not have fathomed. That, too, after being the major antagonist of the Saiyan saga. The couple also have two children together, Trunks and Bulla. There have been several fan theories surrounding the odd couple. One of the most common theories is that their bossy personalities have brought them closer.
But when it came to being a couple, Bulma’s choices triumphed over his husband’s. Another theory is pretty simple, yet it has massive grounds. Vegeta is the Prince of all Saiyans, but his home planet was destroyed. So, to get the princely feeling, he married Bulma, one of the wealthiest personalities on the surface of the Earth.
It gives him unlimited access to her finances, a house, and custom-made training rooms. The financial factor also made it easy for Akira Toriyama to continue the story without explaining how they became a couple.
Another theory surrounding the couple is that Bulma manipulated Vegeta into marrying her. She used the Dragon Ball tracker to find the Dragon Balls and summoned Shenron. Bulma wished for an ideal boyfriend who would also be a prince and love and protect her. The theory suggests it is the reason why Vegeta came to Earth and ended up marrying Bulma.
Fans React To Dragon Ball’s Power Couple
Vegeta and Bulma are the power couple of the Dragon Ball franchise. The former is the Prince of all Saiyans, while the latter is the inheritor of the Capsule Corporation. Many believe them to be a better couple than Goku and Chi-Chi. Even though Vegeta is stubborn, he deeply cares about his wife, and she reciprocates.
Vegeta momentarily surpassed Goku after Beerus hitting Bulma enraged him. The fans could not help but come up with hilarious comments directed towards the Power Couple.
The Dragon Ball franchise has given the fans countless moments. But pairing Vegeta and Bulma was a master stroke. Everyone was shocked when they came to know about Trunks’ father. It is amusing to think that it was the Saiyan Prince who came asking for help to Bulma. Being good at heart, she could not refuse. Akira Toriyama found it the perfect moment to make them a couple.
Dragon Ball can be streamed on Crunchyroll, and the manga is available on Viz Media.
