The Super Dragon Ball Heroes arcade game will be continuing its Universe Mission 3 arc with a new challenge mission that will introduce what is sure to be a controversial new character: Detective Vegeta!

Yes, you read that right: Vegeta gets a Sherlock Holmes makeover in this latest challenge mission, and the debut trailer for the Detective Vegeta shows that he can throw down just as well as his non-detective counterpart – even using some fo the same attacks.
There’s been no real confirmation on how the character will fit into the actual storyline of the Universe Mission 3 arc, but hopefully it will be something compelling enough to explain this somewhat silly depiction of the Prince of Saiyans.

The trailer translations have revealed a full title that reads “Detective Vegeta!? The Case of Missing Limited Edition Ice Cream!” which is not all that encouraging to those who look and see something insanely silly in Detective Vegeta. It sounds almost like a filler episode of Dragon Ball anime, in which Vegeta would have to, say, locate some one-of-a-kind ice cream that Bulma had promised to Beerus and Whis, before the destroyer arrives and gets pissed at being denied his treat. Why that would prompt Vegeta to dress up in detective clothes is anyone’s guess – we’re just trying to wrap our minds around this thing, in way we can!
Needless to say, fans have been going in on this one – but the reactions are not all bad, surprisingly enough! Check some of those out, below!

Detective Vegeta : I have a hunch about his power level. Itโs approximately over 9000.
Detective Pikachi : How did you figure it out?
Detective Vegeta : Elementary my dear Pikachu.@KenXyro @SavinTheBees pic.twitter.com/HzHdFBeAbS
Vegeta: Ace Attorney
Meitantei Bejiita/Detective Vegeta reminds me of the “OBJECTION!” point of Phoenix Wright in Ace Attorney, which Haruhi Suzumiya also parodied. XD pic.twitter.com/xYGx6BOfO0
