Which favorite DBZ anime character is the strongest? Explain if you want?

I say vegeta is the strongest because he was both physically and mentally strong some characters were a bit more physically stronger than vegeta but not mentally vegeta put all he's energy and focus into reaching his goal he had the most self discipline goku had natural talent since he was a kid vegeta train even harder than goku to build his skills Vegeta is the best because he choosed to be different he was a leader not a follower everybody else followed goku but not vegeta he want to be better plus vegeta beat goku when he turn into majin vegeta in season 8 also goku, gohan, krillin, and yajirobe all 4 of them could not beat vegeta in season 1 goku use kamehameha wave and the spirite bomb on vegeta and vegeta was still standing after vegeta defeated goku and krillin ( yajirobe ran away ) gohan was the only one left than gohan turned into an ape as vegeta knocks out gohan his ape body falls on top of vegeta but vegeta is still alive
