Vegito doesn't have a "particular niche" if he has absolutely no flaws at all. It just makes him broken.

Exactly. That is why Vegetto didn't last on Z (or why his appearance in Super cheapened him) he was supposed to be completely broken.

Other than the earrings, you do realise that they're the same thing right?

The fact that there are two different methods of fusion available to the main cast is already dumb enough as it is without shipping the two different results.

Well, the way it was handled during Z (and later GT) was that using the potara earrings lead to a "perfect fusion" of sorts with the only downside being the fact it was permanent.

While using the fusion dance has the clear weaknesses of being restricted by a time limit and later being added the fact that the more powerful the fusion is, the less time it lasts.

As of Super though, yeah, both are essentially the same thing.

Fusion doesn't give you magic, fusions give you a bombastic personalty and makes you more creative! Ki works like a green lantern ring, the more creative you are the flashier your techneques. The heroes of dragonball are just lame and dumb, so they can't think of anything better than a huge beam. They are the John Stewart of green lanterns.

Only villains and fusions unlock the true creative power of Ki. Like Goku Black and his awesome Ki scythe. Vegita briefly unlocked his creativity when his mind was made evil by Babidi, but he lost this power when he became good again:

I imagine what going to happen with Frieza is Goku defeats Jiren, and Jiren demends Goku rings him out, but Goku refuses to let him and his universe be killed by that action. At that point Frieza either kills or rings out Jiren, killing Universe 11. That point Frieza probably going to get killed for good by Goku or Zero depending on what happened.

Regular SSJ Blue Freezer is stronger than, we have no basis for how he stands against Kaioken or Sparkles

Basically, top 3

Top Tier: MUI Goku and Jiren
2nd Tier: Sparkle Vegeta, KK+SSB Goku, Kefla, GoD Toppo, Incomplete UI Goku
3rd Tier: SSB Goku/Vegeta, Golden Frieza, 17

Sparkle Vegeta and KK+SSB Goku are presented as equivalent in the fight against Jiren, though Golden Frieza is one-shotted. If anything, Sparkle Vegeta beating GoD Toppo shows a higher ceiling than KK+SSB Goku but of course, Goku has since surpassed that with UI. Incomplete UI Goku also appears to be "better" than KK+SSB considering he could compete with Jiren at all but it's similar to the Super Trunks form where it has more of one thing but less of another, so it will never be seen again.

Vegetto doesn't need limitations, if you want a fusion with limitations just use Gogeta.

Buu loving up with the fusion is contrived bullshit just so the writers don't have to deal with a broken protagonist but is acceptable enough both because Buu is a being that defies logic on the regular and is just one, so that is not a way to separate Vegetto that can be used all the time. Amusing as the idea of the Z warriors carrying Buu around just to separate potara fusions can be.

vegetto is just a really strong dude, he's not an invincible superbeing

This is Dragon Ball dude, even in the hypothetical scenario where they never unfused opponents would just be arbitrarily stronger to be a challenge for him because that's how this shonen poo poo works.

The real reason they unfused is that the great comedy duo of Goku and Vegeta doesn't work if they're both the same person. That's it.

Also yeah Vegetto being strong af during Buu doesn't mean he's invincible now that the power scale is so much higher imo. He's still hella strong b/c he's Goku and Vegeta fused but I don't think he was ever meant to be invincible.

e: only kids are alowed to be naked, clearly ^^
