Apparently Vegetto has a weakness?
A certain weakness that Portara doesn't have? Yup definitely getting defusing vibes... Please no Toei/Toriyama I'd rather he be nerfed like he can't go SSGSS again after a while or something.

Maybe the weakness has to do with Vegeta and Goku both being mortals instead of gods.

Maybe Vegettos weakness is something to do with him having both Gokus and Vegetas mind? Maybe a true potara fusion is meant to be more like Kibitoshins? That's the only possible issue I can think of.

Or because they have transformed to SSGB

According to what the producer thinks, but he still says Black who isn't even on the picture.
This producer don't know jack about consistency, maybe he's the one screwing with the power level in the series :P

It's funny that he mentions Goku Black was the strongest character before Beerus, but don't mention anything about Merged Zamasu's power... "Cheat character"? That could means that he's somewhat unbeatable? :think:

Yeah really curious how they will nerv Vegito.

Strange that they had no issues against Buu.

So it has to be the god ki stuff...

Or do Vegito has both Vegeta's and Goku's personal weaknesses Whis pointed out?

Or (hopefully) it's just the magazine exaggerating and this supposed weakness will be negligible in the end.

#66 is almost here so we'll know soon! Gosh this has made me feeling a bit more nervous about the episode now... :?

I honestly want Vegetto to defuse so Vegeta can interact with Future Bulma once she'll get revived, but at the same time I want Vegetto to meet the rest of the cast once they return. :?


Another tidbit. Now the only one remaining is that one with Trunks, and the bottom one on Merged Zamasu.

Yeah it could be, hopefully it's an explanation that fits with what we've seen prior.

Veggeto's Weakness could still be the double sized ego, just like Gotenks.

Why did they even make Vegetto appear again if they gonna do all this crap... adding weakness and stuff? Really...all so that they can make sure Beerus stays on top? I wonder how the Manga handles this. If it's true anyways. They should have just introduced a new level of power beyond Blue. I would have preferred that over a nerfed Vegetto. Takes the fun out of having him appear if he's just another weakling compared to the GoDs.

My guess is that Vegetto's weakness is that his souls don't merge into a single one like Kaiou-shin and Kibito's did. In other words, the merger is too chaotic, so it's subject to Vegetto being weakened after a period of time. Additionally, I imagine Merged Zamasu's weakness will be similar: you can't combine two of the same soul together.

After reading the manga again, I found something that can serve to find its weakness:

Well, as it says there, two individuals can only merge once in a lifetime with the Pothalas. It is necessary to take into account that this limitation can nerf the power of Vegetto, possibly not having a power increase as severe like the previous one.

Beerus > Vegito Blue and Merged Zamasu confirmed :D

This means Vegeta and Goku ain't gonna surpass the gods of destruction for the next couple of arcs. Hell they might not until the very end of super.

What was confirmed is that Gokū Black is the most powerful fighter (except for Beerus, the God of Destruction)

Yes, lightsabers! Well... kind of... But I'll take it anyway, because that's the closet we're gonna get to it. :P

Goku Black being the strongest is certainly a comment to create contention, and considering that Merged Zamasu and SSJB Vegetto are a thing, I'm sure there people that are going to misconstrue that comment and start saying shit like, "Goku Black>>>>Omni King>>>>>SSBJ Goku/Vegeta>>>>>Zamasu >>>>Everyone else" etc. I think we wait and see how Merged Zamasu vs Vegetto plays outs, as we may get some answers to some questions, including what Vegetto apparent weakness may be, too.

It is not confirmed, Zamasu55 was trolling. No comparison was made between SSB Vegetto, Merged Zamasu, and Beerus.
James Teal (Animerica 1996) wrote:When you think about it, there are a number of similarities between the Chinese-inspired Son Goku and that most American of superhero icons, Superman. Both are aliens sent to Earth shortly after birth to escape the destruction of their homeworlds; both possess super-strength, flight, super-speed, heightened senses and the ability to cast energy blasts. But the crucial difference between them lies not only in how they view the world, but in how the world views them.

Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter. The more down-to-earth Goku has no illusions about being responsible for maintaining social order, or for setting some kind of moral example for the entire world. Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.

I doubt it. They never thought that they would be able to unfuse again.

Hell even GT never let Kibitoshin unfuse.
