The Truth About Gogeta VS Vegito

The truth is Vegito in the original continuity was stronger, but over time the two fusions got retconned in the newer material to be equal.

The big advantage that I saw in the fusion dance was that you don't have to carry around a delicate piece of jewelery. Vegeta crushed it like a peanut when they defused inside Buu

I think it comes down to personal preference, and I prefer Vegito.

I'd prefer it if each fusion had their own strengths and weaknesses, it makes things more interesting. I'm actually glad that Super did some retconning to make it less one sided.

I literally seen someone in the chat for the battle say "I can't wait for Geekdom to make a video about this", and HERE WE ARE!!

Personally I think simplicity of the potara fusion is what really makes it the better option. Assuming the power levels themselves are even somewhat relative between the two options, the need to learn and perform the dance correctly or risk a failed fusion and all the time wasted waiting to defuse and redo the dance, automatically makes it a much less practical option especially when it's with Goku and Vegeta as the fusing pair.. Where as with the potara you just gotta throw on some earrings and there is zero risk of failure...

The thing is though, when Old Kai says Potara is better, he says this after he tells them Boo won't just let them fuse. The very fact that you can fuse with anyone by snapping earnings on automatically makes Potara a better fusion method. You don't have to balance you ki or be of similar size. Old Kak was shown to be wrong about multiple things with the potara, and even in Z he didn't know why Goku and Vegeta defused, so I think him saying it's better is a combo of him tooting his own horn and referring to how the potara doesn't need to have specific poses. However, the WSJ guide that says Gogeta is a better balance makes sense as well. Potara is supposed to be for the Gods to use, and so it might not balance all the aspects of 2 mortal warriors, but instead just combine them. The Metamoran dance is designed to make a stronger warrior and because you have to match ki size and body size to fuse, it makes sense for Gogeta to be a better balance. The other big thing is Gotenks and Kibito Kai. Gotenks was way superior to Kibito Kai, yet the latter was likely comprised of stronger fusees, and used a stronger fusion. Imo they are meant to be equal. In BoG when goku says fusion won't be enough for Beerus, I think its talking about either form in general. The most recent guide says they are equally matched trump cards, so I think they are equal.

I always liked Vegito's design better and felt like he was stronger than Gogita based off the old continuity.

I thought Death Battle handled the fight well, not showing too much favoritism towards one or the other I may be a Gogeta stan but I wasn't mad about the ending

The only thing I want to really say in regards to this is the Metamoran fusion to me is just a ritual. So even though one person has to lower their power level to preform the ritual, it does not mean the fusion itself has lost any of the power the person that lowered their level had. Like it’s just something that must be done for the ritual to work. Not that the full power locked within isn’t being used in the end result.

Honestly, I thought the Death Battle guys did pretty good within the parameters they set. And they basically ended up in the same place you did. Vegito did win the SDBH anniversary anime. But I'm on team Gogeta all the way. You can say that two fighters who balance their ki on their own is better than a fusion that forces two imbalanced forces together because of the importance of balance and self control in eastern martial arts.

With all due respect Geekdom, I feel the criticisms toward Death Battle come off as weird. They aren't judging the characters based on which time period they appear with as you suggest, but a hypothetical scenario where both characters are at their strongest. Heck, their conclusion was based on Vegetto lasting longer than Gogeta, with both being identical in power but Vegetto not needing the fusees to lower their power level in order to fuse.

Right after the death battle video? Geekdom tryin' to start somethin' 😂.

Vegetto is stronger than gogeta, but gogeta is the optimal fusion because its a confirmed 30 minute time.

Dude you made a video but I can tell you didn't even watch the death battle. All you did was talk for no reason and crap on death battle for no reason

Uhh…nothing you said contradicts what death battle said…

I like how even though he said don’t trust death battle they both had the same result. Vegito won crazy, almost like geekdom didn’t watch the most recent episode. Death battle changed from what they do in the past for the better.

Another thing to note of why the fusion time with the dance may be more stable is due to the fact that both beings need to be similar in power to fuse meaning more efficiency with power and time consumption, while the potara doesn’t have such restrictions and beings can be anywhere in power and this may make the time wind down faster since one being may be drawing more power than the other using up the limit.

Yeah to add to your point about them sharing techniques, we have to remember ki is a very malleable energy. Yes, you can practise the same form for many years to optimize it perfectly, but you can also shape it to your situation. Neither of the fusees existed, and therefore ever had a thought, prior to their initial fusions. Which means, Gogeta thought of stardust breaker, a technique which eradicates all evil, on the spot, because he was fighting a being which was almost entirely (except for the kid) comprised of evil energy. Vegito came up with the spirit sword on the spot to slice and dice Buu's body.

“Stay away from Death Battle because… you know” No. I don’t. They came to the same conclusion as your video. With the exact same evidence.
