Part 5/8:
A Missed Opportunity Against Beerus
One significant moment where Vegeta potentially could have used Super Saiyan 3 is during his encounter with Beerus in the "Battle of Gods" arc. At this juncture, Vegeta had not yet achieved the divine transformations available later in the series. Fans ponder why Vegeta didn't tap into the Super Saiyan 3 form, particularly when the situation called for all available strength to protect his loved ones.
