Yes, Vegeta's voice did change during the run of Dragon Ball Z, specifically as voiced by Christopher Sabat.
The Evolution of Vegeta's Voice
While Christopher Sabat consistently held the role as Vegeta's English voice actor throughout Dragon Ball Z, he notably altered the vocalization he used for the character over time. This evolution resulted in the distinct voice that many fans associate with the Prince of Saiyans today.
- Consistent Voice Actor: Christopher Sabat remained the primary English voice actor for Vegeta throughout Dragon Ball Z.
- Voice Modulation: Despite the consistent actor, Sabat changed the specific vocal quality and delivery for Vegeta's character as the series progressed.
- Parallel Change: Interestingly, this vocal shift also applied to his portrayal of Zarbon, another character he voiced in the series. The specific reasons behind these vocal alterations by Sabat are not widely known.
This means that while the person behind the voice remained the same, the sound of Vegeta's voice evolved from earlier episodes to later arcs of the series.
