How was Vegeta able to be revived by the Dragon Balls? (DBK/Manga)


(I couldn't find a question like this, if it's been asked before then please
remove it.)

There are several known plot holes in the _DBZ_ story, but one that interested
me is that in the **Buu saga** (in _DBK_ it's in ep127) it's said that when a
human/alien that killed too many innocent people is dead, in hell they erase
his body and his memories and recreate him. Piccolo said that in response to
Vegeta's question of whether he could be meet Goku again, but it very clearly
that he still **won't be revived by the DragonBalls because of that**.

The content of Vegeta and Piccolo conversation in _DBK_ ep127 (translated from
japanese):

> Vegeta: Tell me just one thing first, in the Next World or whatever it is,
> after I die, will I be able to see Kakarrot again?
>
> Piccolo: At a time like this, it won't do any good to offer consolation, so
> I won't mince words. That won't be possible.
>
> Vegeta: (blinking in shock)
>
> Piccolo: **You'v killed to many innocent people**. Once you die, your body
> will become nonexictense, and your soul will be sent to a world different
> from Goku's. **There, your soul will be cleaned, and your** **memories
> erased, and you will be turned into a new life form.**

(30.5.2012 EDIT) -

Now, this dialogue between Vegeta and Piccollo, is not DBK exclusive (as some
people commented that in the original DBZ they changed it), but **manga
material** as following:

(END OF EDIT)

Now, in the original _DBZ_ they created a plot hole by including a scene of
Frieza, Cell and other villains watching the battle against Buu on earth when
they were in Hell, but I'm not talking about that.

During the **Frieza arc** , Vegeta **was clearly evil**. Though he joined
forces with Gohan, Krillin _et al_ , he still killed a whole village, he's
clearly evil, and yet, when Kaio asked Shenron to revive all the people killed
by Frieza, **Vegeta came back to life** (in _DBK_ it's ep51). If we go by the
assumption that evil people are recreated in hell, **then how was he
revived?**

Though for a fact that Vegeta asked at the end of Buu saga from Prolunga to
bring back all those who died **except for any evil people** to unrule
bringing back Babidi and Dabra, that's not contradict the above, since Piccolo
specified specifically that **Vegeta killed to many people** so he won't have
a body, unlike Babidi that was evil but didn't were just evil and didn't
killed anyone (not by himself at least) and Dabra who Daio sent to heaven.
**it's clearly that there's definite different between killing a lot of people
to be just evil** \- killing a lot of people contaminating the soul so it
needs to be recreate (like Uub) while being only evil not.

Now, I know it's a fact that Toriyama didn't want to make the Buu Saga, and
there _could be_ plot holes and all, but is there still some explanation for
that?

Note 1: This question came to me after watching _Dragon Ball Kai_. If in the
original _DBZ_ it's not a question, I would love to be enlightened.

Note 2: I'm reffering only to _DBZ_ manga canon material, so evidences from
_DBS_ aren't related.

30.5.2021 EDIT NOTE - After checking the manga, this question is referring
only to the DBK version that seems more loyal to the manga than DBZ, **do not
mix here stuff from DBZ**.




I'm not sure if I understand your question, but are you asking why he was
revived because he was supposed to be erased? They explicitly mention in the
series that Enma Daio Sama decided not to erase Vegeta's soul just in case he
needed him for a battle. So what Vegeta said in the screencapture you posted
didnt apply to him due to an Enma Daio Sama decision

but you can use the english subtitles feature of Youtube to add them)
