Why won't Goku and Vegeta wear their RoF clothes for this new arc?

They'll need to train under Whis before the tournament, and the new clothes are cooler and all. So why won't they wear them?

The series director probably feels their old outfit suits them better or maybe feels more classic. It could also be Bandai wanting to sell more SSB toys with Gokuu and Vegeta's old outfits.

It must be Toriyama's idea. Black arc they used those outfits because of Vegetto, now who knows why they still use them as they look bad with SSB. Maybe a new transformation is coming and Toriyama designed it to suit Goku's and Vegeta's classic outfits.

I don't mind Goku's outfit all that much (though I really want him using his EoZ outfit as I think it would look good in Super), but Vegeta's armor outfit just looks horrendously outdated.

Honestly the retcon felt like "Here's Vegetto. He is crazy strong, too bad he lasts like a fart in front of a fan, so he won't be appearing anymore!"

I miss the F outfits so much.

They probably originally swapped them out for merchandise reasons and never switched back because there haven't been any new forms or because of nostalgia.

They've worn the same outfits their whole lives. Don't expect that to change.

I think Whis has suspended their training. Besides, what could he possibly give them?

I'm certain it's merchandise related. Gotta pimp out those Blue Haired Gods in all the outfits possible.

We haven't had SSJ2 and 3 in the RoF outfits yet, I'd say that is on the Horizon, SSJ3 would probably look strange in it which is why they stayed with these outfits.

I just don't understand what was the point of introducing new outfits for them if they were gonna just go straight back to the old ones after only 2 arcs.

Nintendo 3DS models notwithstanding, it doesn't appear strange to me.[spoiler]ImageImage[/spoiler]

I mainly hate Vegeta not wearing his since it was a gift of an improved armor from his wife. Why the fuck not wear it?

What was the point in changing their outfits it they were going to go back to their original ones.I think Goku should start wearing the clothes he wears at the end of Z.

EoZ dougi would be nice... :mrgreen:

With how much they're pushing VegeBul it does make it strange in-universe that he isn't wearing the new armor she had made for him.
