@shaheen_306 Good thing Dragon Ball’s influence isn’t what makes it a good narrative. Toriyama's work holds up so well, in addition to his brilliance as a comic artist and humorist, is that, in both its gleeful self-indulgence and its consistency in reflecting certain world views.

The contrast between Goku and Vegeta becomes evident through subtle details. For instance, Nappa extending his hand to Vegeta for help differs from Krillin extending his hand to Goku Vegeta callously eliminates a crippled Nappa because the latter was no longer useful to him.

Ironically, if the Saiyans had considered him strong enough, he would have shared the same fate as the rest of his people. Instead, he was spared due to the classism within Saiyan society, which eventually led him to become a powerful fighter.

On the other hand, Vegeta represents the epitome of Saiyan culture, a society founded on the Darwinian principle of survival of the fittest. Strength is the sole measure of worth, and the weak and disabled are considered burdens not worth protecting.

Thus, when faced with the possibility that Vegeta might surpass him in strength, Goku maintains a positive outlook. Vegeta's motivation is rooted in his Saiyan pride, which is inherent to his nature. His goal is to win and demonstrate his superiority over others.

Once almost everyone is revived by the Dragon Balls, a change occurs in Goku's demeanor. He brings the fight back to the ground, and Freeza even remarks that Goku now desires a hand-to-hand fight, and this shift signifies a return to Goku's martial arts roots.
