# Vegeta Cult

Vegeta Cult is a TikTok group from summer 2021 whose members photoshopped Vegeta's green SAB jacket from Dragon Ball Super: Broly onto anime characters and reaction images for their profile pictures. The trend came out of TikToker @____vegetatard's June 15th, 2021 return-from-ban video and grew into coordinated follow chains and comment-section raids. By early August 2021, swarms on a Charli D'Amelio video drove Dexerto and Distractify to publish explainers on how the cult worked.

## Origin
Vegeta Cult traces to TikToker @____vegetatard, who started it in June 2021[2]. On June 15th, 2021 he posted a return video showing Vegeta in the green SAB jacket after a recent ban, and by June 28th he was showcasing a cluster of parody accounts using the same PFP under names like 'vegetarduncle' and 'vegetardstepmom,' set up as a mock 'family'[3].

He formally announced the Vegeta Cult on July 30th, 2021, then posted an August 1st roundup of fan jacket edits that gained more than 300,000 views in five days[3].

## Overview
To join the group, a user changed their TikTok profile picture to an edit of an anime character, meme figure or celebrity wearing Vegeta's green jacket, the SAB coat he wears in Dragon Ball Super: Broly[2]. Edits ranged from clean composites of anime protagonists in the jacket to messier photoshops slapped onto reaction images[2]. Original art was fine, but recycling someone else's jacketed character also counted.

Once inside, members followed each other to inflate counts, then descended on big creators' comment sections with lines about the cult's unstoppable power and a coming takeover of the app[1]. The vibe leaned into Vegeta's Saiyan-prince posturing, mixing Dragon Ball references with the raid-based humor that drove earlier TikTok groups like the Hamster Cult and the Lana Cult[1].

## How to Use
Typical practice: pick an anime character, meme or celebrity, edit Vegeta's green SAB jacket from Dragon Ball Super: Broly onto them, and set the result as your TikTok PFP[2]. From there, members commonly followed back other cult accounts and chimed into large creators' comment sections about the group's power[1].
