So, now comes the second and final part of "QUESTIONS TO SON-GOKU UND CO", but I renamed it to "What really matters" because it somehow fitted better!

WHAT REALLY COUNTS




Reporter: Vegeta, who was your childhood role model?


Vegeta: Definitely my father. For as long as I can remember, I have admired him for his strength, both physically and mentally. That's why I trained like a man possessed, I wanted to be able to show him at some point that I can do it too, I mean to lead the people of the Sayiajins. He was my drive, always set me new goals and made me strong. Without him I would have been weak and alone. He not only imparted fighting spirit and strength to me, but also love, the love that came back when I met Bulma. Without the memory of my father, I would probably never have recognized what she felt for me and I would not have realized that I felt the same way.I inherited his pride and spirit. The years at Freezer always suppressed the last, but later I found it again.


Reporter: What is "love" to you?


Vegeta: Dear, I used to think that makes you weak and vulnerable, but I was wrong. The real strength lies in the middle of love and you can only achieve it if you love too. Otherwise I only fought to see other sufferings or to prove myself to myself that I was the strongest. But I never had a real goal until when Boo came to earth and started destroying everything. Then my thoughts were no longer dominated by the pressure of necessarily having to be the better, but the only thing I wanted was to protect the people and especially Bulma and Trunks. Love is when you sacrifice yourself for someone to prevent the loved one from dying.


Reporter: What is the greatest happiness for you?

Vegeta: That's easy. To be happy I just have to look at Bulma and then I know that she loves me. Knowing that is the greatest happiness. (Smiles) For example, when I sit at the kitchen table after dinner and do the dishes for Bulma, the sun shines right on her through the window. She then conjures up shining strands in her hair and it seems to me as if she is just a beautiful dream. Then I go to her and just touch her very lightly and I'm always afraid she might disappear at that moment, but she doesn't. Then I am really happy.


Reporter: What wish would you have loved to have fulfilled?


Vegeta: I hardly have any memories of my mother because I was very young when she died. I would like to ask my father how she was. I never got around to that because I thought I would be considered a sissy. But when I met Bulma, I suddenly wondered if Father had exactly the same feelings for my mother.Whether he loved her so unconditionally and what he felt when she died. I want to know whether she was like Bulma or maybe completely different and why my father chose her in particular. For just one day, I want him to be alive again and to be able to talk to me about everything I never told him. Maybe then I would find the courage to tell him how much I love him.




Reporter: Piccolo, who was your role model?


Piccolo: In that way I had no role model, except maybe my father, but at some point I realized that he had fought for the wrong cause. From then on I didn't want anything in common with him. Well, later I admired Goku, but not as a role model, but as a good friend. He was a great, strong and skilled fighter and that impressed me. But on the whole I have always managed without a role model.


Reporter: What do you mean by love?


Piccolo: It's such a thing with love.Namekians don't fall in love the way people do; this feeling, which everyone describes as so wonderful, is far from us. I know what it is like to love someone amicably, but nothing more than that. I would like to have this feeling, so that I can find out for myself whether it is the truth or everything is just gossip. But I don't think Namekians are capable of such things. Nevertheless, nothing of the kind has been proven.


Reporter: What is the "highest" happiness for them?


Piccolo: To have friends! I used to be alone as a devil, I tried to suppress all feelings of loneliness, but at some point, I think during the time when I was training Gohan, it all spilled over into me. I slowly began to like Gohan because he was so different from the people who were afraid of me. He was never afraid and he awakened my feelings and I realized that I am still able to love even though I called myself the devil.


Reporter: What wish would you have liked?

Piccolo: As I said earlier, I would like to try out what it's like to love someone. To see if it is really true what Vegeta and Son-Goku say that makes love strong. When I see them I almost believe in it, but I want to experience it firsthand. With the stomach tingling and the butterflies as Bulma describes it. Yes, I wish that ...
