Every DB game I've played I always did so with the main objective of unlocking Vegito ahead anyone else or completing the story mode.

I'd love to meet the idiot writers of DB Super so I can bash their faces for that BS potara retcon that nerfed Vegito and robbed him of his appeal.

I'm confused. Vegito Blue was announced like a month ago. Late April. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZcLWyQNV_z0

I guess the only news here is the date? Well we didn't even get a real "date", but there's 11 days left in the month so it's an easy guess. I'm gonna guess the 23rd or 30th (more likely). Why? Because previous DLC characters have been released on a Wednesday.

Vegetto literally defused in the original series before everyone's eyes despite being told it was "permanent". Not to mention Vegetto only appeared very briefly in the original manga too. Not to mention Toriyama came up with the Potara "retcon" for DBS so...

Yeah, it happened right after they absorbed Buu and thus it was apparent, and obvious being inside Buu had something to do with it. That's been the explanation for years both in-universe and outside sources.

It was also revealed that Toriyama didn't want to include Vegito in Super and he was supposed to be a one-time character.

Those videos aren't official sources, as we're not exactly sure how those YouTube accounts got a hold of them. Bandai Namco Ent. has never confirmed Vegito Blue officially until now in V Jump.

Bandai Namco Taiwan uploaded the trailer earlier this month by accident. However, Bandai Namco still refused to comment or acknowledge this.
