You really gave Vegeta great development here.
This Vegeta didn't change who he is to progress, he channeled his strengths into the path that fitted him best.

The fact that Goku's blows never feel powerful, but swift and precise. While Vegeta's punches feel simple, yet frightening. Both of them reflect how passionate the creator is to this animation. Phenomenon job!

I love how Vegeta doesn’t have counters for new attacks like God Bind but he does for things like Instant Transmission
Showing how he’s been watching, planning and training to counter Goku for years now

[rafrafrafraf]

Vegeta in dbz: never wins
Vegeta in hyounjutsu animations:
Never lose

[reidj]

This is probably your most anime-like animation with so many beautifully drawn close ups on sprites with stop frames to ensure viewers gets a nice quick look at them.

The transitions between this fight and the Buu Saga fight were clean as hell.

[RisingFist]

As amazing as Hyourin’s animations are, it impresses me so much that the writing is just as 🔥! We may only get videos once in a while, but MAN are these worth the wait.

[Popeyes_Eater]

I love the fact he was shown to get stronger throughout the fight like the actual Ultra Ego

[soraceant]

This was insane. The writing, the techniques. Everything here was perfection. The guy who made this is truly a fan of the show.

[cross_rdiance]

The fact that the ending gives Vegeta’s so much characterization was a Godsend alongside his empathy in his Ultra Ego form and Yardratian technique was a chef’s kiss from Heaven. Phenomenal job Hyourinjutsu, can’t wait for your next masterpiece.

[shadowldrago]

I love how they both fought with their entire bodies but in different ways. Goku fought like a God, wheras Vegeta fought like a Beast, and it worked SO WELL. I'm honestly in awe of this animation.

[danielbeck]

"Those are some dirty fireworks" deserves more recognition than it gets.

[muigogitoultrasonic]

Words can never fully describes how amazing Hyourinjutsu's animation truly is

[Hyourinjutsu]

Hey guys! VS is finally here! This took a lot to make, and I can say that I'm really satisfied with the end product, and hope you will be too! Unlike previous animations, I tried my best at emphasizing how these polar techniques operate, be it the way Goku uses Instinct and evades with elegance, or the way Vegeta expresses emotion and dwelves more into hIs Ego. In more than one ways, Goku and Vegeta are anti-thesis to each-other, and it was important to me to showcase this.

Dude. This is THE best DBZ sprite animation I’ve EVER seen. Incredibly smooth and expressive and visceral. You can FEEL it. Great work!

[SasukeTheCursed]

The actual show needs something like this. A fight like this would actually make it feel like Goku and Vegeta are legitimate rivals instead of Vegeta constantly chasing Goku's coattails. Also Vegeta has far more reason and motivation to want to push himself further with someone like Black Frieza in the picture.

[Shoyoumomo]

Your fight choreography Is so creative and impactful! Amazing job as always!

[JustADioWhosAHeroForFun]

I wish the series itself can give Vegeta this much respect

[jrlewis]

I heard animations like this can't be monetized. just think about the amount of effort creators put into these masterpieces yet they are not rewarded

[mentlegen]

The choreography displayed in this video doesn't just show an unending passion for DBZ, but it also greatly shows that you understand everything that makes these fights so memorable and enjoyable. My favourite thing about this video is that the choreography is not just high energy, it's also flowing and creative. At every moment, the characters move and strike and ki-blast in relation to their current position, as well as in a manner that fits their personalities and fighting styles - making for an increadibly enetertaining and believable what-if scenario.

This doesn't even mention the many other wonderful aspects of this video such as the Mugen style fighting game menus and blood-pumping music and DBZ consistent characterisation and dialogue.

Thank you for this wonderful piece of art.
