To be honest, Vegeta begrudgingly doing things he doesn't want to do out of care is hilariously in-character for him.
And hell, Vegeta was mostly embarrassed that Goku decided to make fun of the fact that he does care. Vegeta's reaction is just trying to save face...failing.
A lazy millennial who's good at what he does.A Tsundere is simple to understand.
It's not "acting like they hate something but secretly liking it", it's "Acting vicious but being secretly sweet", though there's also the reverse, acting all sweet and shit but secretly being a total bitch.
Let's go to the most well recognized Tsundere out there, Tohsaka Rin. She's solely Tsun Tsun towards Shirou, the object of her affections. To everyone else, she is the somewhat aloof but good natured school idol. The only people who know how much of a bitch she really is are Shirou (who is, well, Shirou) and Issei (who actually just kind of assumes she's a total bitch beneath the façade and probably isn't aware he's actually right about her).
This is a Tsundere. Someone who acts one way, but actually is another. Rin's a very Tsun Tsun girl, but she acts Dere Dere to keep up a certain image.

It was just a collection of Vegeta pictures, calling him a nerd, and rambling on about how much smarter she is than Toriyama.

She's also deredere towards Shirou on occasions like basically all of the final episode of the UBW anime and various moments in the story proper.
Here's something that's probably never been discussed in this thread, things you actually liked about Dragon Ball Evolution.
My favorite part of Dragon Ball Evolution was leaving the theater.
My Tumblr. Currently side-by-side liveblogging Digimon Adventure, sub vs dub.Uh....uhh.....uhh....
We got to see someone use a Kamehameha in live-action? I mean, it looked all wrong, and acted all wrong, but...
I guess....I liked how they tried to make Goku relatable? Even if that was beating the entire point of Goku?
I don't know.
The *Legendary* Super Saiyan is motivated by a crying infant! He is a literal giant f***ing baby!I found it hilarious when they desperately tried to hedge their bets with the young, hip Western audience by calling the Kamehameha "airbending."

My Tumblr. Currently side-by-side liveblogging Digimon Adventure, sub vs dub.Flaw in that theory: Ginyu would steal Gohan's body.
If we're accepting the premise based on the filler in which Frog Ginyu made it to Earth, then we also have to accept the filler in which he was shown to still be able to Body Change as a frog, using it on Bulma in an effort to escape his predicament.
My Tumblr. Currently side-by-side liveblogging Digimon Adventure, sub vs dub.Did it? I only vaguely remember some of the filler arcs. <.<
If so, objection withdrawn.
My Tumblr. Currently side-by-side liveblogging Digimon Adventure, sub vs dub.My favorite thing about Evolution? Team Four Star's rifftrax of it. If not that then the fact that Toriyama made Battle of Gods fun specifically to make up for it.
Let the joy of love give you an answer! Check out my book!To be fair, that just means it looks like a PSP game.
(Seriously, that thing is only slightly less powerful than the PS 2, which could push out Gran Turismo 4 at 1080p and I'm not even shitting you, how come PSP graphics are usually so... terrible?)
Say what you will about Dragon Ball Evolution... it did resurrect a zombie franchise.

himitsu keisatsu seifu chokuzoku kokka hoanbu na no da himitsu keisatsu yami ni magireru supai katsudou torishimariThe worst thing about Evolution is it's ruined the idea of live-action Dragon Ball forever. Marvel has taught me that no matter how unusual the source material is, you can still make a good movie out of it.
But now, if anyone ever thinks of giving Dragon Ball the MCU treatment, someone will protest with how bad Evolution was (and how poorly it fared at the box office).
The *Legendary* Super Saiyan is motivated by a crying infant! He is a literal giant f***ing baby!I'm actually going to make a Dragon Ball live-action franchise that stays 97% accurate to the manga with only some VERY minor changes that people have been wanting anyways like: giving the humans Kaio-Ken, changing what happens to Boss Rabbit so that it makes more sense, showing Dr. Gero while Goku beats up the Red Ribbon Army, and showing Freeza training for his revenge. Along with things no one asked for but would be cool anyway like an hour-long animated special in the special features of each DVD and Blu-Ray that shows the various backstories of the characters relevant to the movie, like Bardock the Father of Goku except without the stupid psychic powers, or the History of Trunks Special except done differently (in this version, Trunks turns Super Saiyan in response to Gohan getting his arm ripped off).

Au contraire.
The state of the DB Franchise before DBE was deplorable. It was being barely kept alive through videogames that, frankly, were not up to par, which were beginning to feel more and more like your average movie licensed game with every iteration. Furthermore, Toriyama wanted nothing to do with DB.
For all its flaws, DBE did one thing right:
It showed the world that there is a fucking audience for DB, and more importantly, it showed that we do actually give a fuck, and it reminded people that with a little effort, Dragon Ball can sell and sell well.

A Tsundere is someone that acts like they don't want to do something, but secretly do, basically.
Vegeta doesn't want to spend family time, and even ditches them later. Vegeta doesn't want to show affection, and keeps his distance because of that. Vegeta, however, does care about Bulma and Trunks, so he goes along with their annoyances out of that love he has for them.
That isn't Tsundere. That's called being 3-dimensional, and is something the fandom doesn't seem to be able to grok.
