Dragon Ball Super's latest episode saw Universe 7 take a big loss, as Vegeta was eliminated from the Tournament of Power, after giving his all (and then some) in a final fight with Jiren.
Not surprisingly, Vegeta's elimination has caused a major stir with Dragon Ball Super fans, who are feeling some kind of way about the fact that Vegeta is gone, and how the Saiyan Prince went out.
Here's what the fans are saying:
Pride Before The Fall

The whole scene was heartbreaking#vegeta #bulma #DragonBallSuper
Seeing Vegeta's body break, even though his will to fight remained unbroken, really was emotional for a lot of fans.

DBS 128 successfully intertwined an impassioned end to Vegeta's journey with a subtle goodbye to Hiromi Tsuru as Bulma ? Barring a final act from Frieza to change the status quo, the tournament now seems a foregone conclusion with Ultra Instinct Goku taking centre stage #Vegeta

There were indeed some other milestones at work in this episode, as voice actress Hiromi Tsuru left Bulma behind. Aya Hisakawa will take over the role, in whatever comes next for the series.

Vegeta may have lost, but thanks to the latter half of the Tournament of Power, Vegeta has become a big winner in the eyes of the fandom. His defeat at the hands of Jiren may ironically turn out to be one of his most celebrated moments in the entire series!

Other fans were heartstruck from seeing this rare level of emotion from Vegeta. Remember when this guy came to Earth to maim and kill way back in that first season of Dragon Ball Z?

I’m sorry- but did nobody else notice...#blackpanther #killmonger #vegeta #dragonballsuper #dbs

This is fan might've enjoyed Marvel's Black Panther - but Dragon Ball was clearly never far from his mind while watching it. Vegeta = icon.
prevnextGoku Hate
I’m so disappointed #goku = #TRASH , #vegeta is gone and #android17 ? I wish #Jiren would kill off everyone now lmao #rt

This pretty much speaks for the sector of the fandom that is disappointed in how the Tournament of Power has played out. Too predictable with its Goku UI vs Jiren finale - even though the final battle looks to be really awesome.
