This topic is coming up in the comments again so just giving it a proper thread. Don't know much about this theory so would like to hear what evidence is out there and what you think the scenerio for this happening looks like.

This theory lost some ground for me. Vegeta was killed by Raichi. Kakarot didn't die from his wounds, but he still seem very concerned by them. I don't think he would be as upset about Raditz leaving him if he was really immortal.

No one in U13 is immortal. In fact, when we exclude DBSuper, there was not a single immortal character in canon DBZ or DB. It would make them a very broken universe and it'd just be a pointless gimmick, I'll explain why: A) Despite being immortals, they'd still could be vaporized by nearly half of the tournament. B) Once we get over this, for them to survive, they'd need to have a "spontaneous re-hatching" C) If they are decapitated, they wouldn't be able to keep fighting unless they had regeneration on Buu/Cell levels. It's clear they don't possess any of these. I really don't see why people want Kakarotto or Vegeta to be immortals so bad. I find it completely non-sensical. Where does that come from? It comes from a blend of stupidity and very wishful thinking.

I think it would've been said by now.
Though it would be interesting if the only two options to get rid of Immortal Zamasu is to either destroy Goku Black's time ring/remove it or vaporize Zamasu into literal nothingness and I know how they can do this: SSB/SSG Gogeta/Vegitto.
Either way I think they'd at least hinted it.

I was really hoping U13 Vegeta would be immortal. While it would have been boring for him to beat Raichi, him getting killed felt very anticlimactic. U13 Vegeta being immortal would have made a nice twist.

Now that you mention it I do think it would have been hilarious for a character like Freeza or Vegeta to have gotten their wish for immorality and thought they were invincible coming in this tournament only to find out the hard way they aren't. Would totally love to see them reduced to a talking head and nothing else.

Well, for what it's worth, in the U16 Vegito novelisation, there is an immortal character. He can't die, he's another aberration of the universe, much like Vegito himself. In the case of instant pulverisation, his spirit would still be lurking around and would eventually regenerate, though not fast, and definitly not without pain.
So on that ground, there is some reason to acknowledge immortality in the continuity of DBM.
That being said, I don't personally ascribe to the theory that anyone in U13 is immortal. It would be hilarious if Kakarot had gotten immortality and "beat" Vegeta to it, but it would fall flat after that. I think the theory came from seeing Kakarot take mountains of punishment and never die. That's normal, he's not human, and even by Saiyan standards seems pretty hard to kill. (Same applies to Goku)

I saw a lot of theories on Vegata and Kakarot having immortality. Since U13 Vegeta was killed, he obviously doesn't have it. There has been some justification supporting Kakarot such as surving the planetary ring collapse as an Oozaru and getting a hole punched his chest and still living despite not being healed. That and Raditz saying he can't kill his brother. (all of these could be explained without immortality though, like brotherly affection and good durability).
However, haven't seen anything beyond that to support his immortality, and if he has it, it doesn't help him much as he couldn't defeat Vegeta, and Vegeta from U13 doesn't seem concerned by him. It could be WHY they tolerate him, since he's so close to Vegeta's level in his universe. Maybe Kakarot stole his immortality wish on Namek, and Vegeta can't kill him so just constantly keeps himself stronger to keep Kakarot in line.
Beyond that, its only a theory...

I think the reason for this theory came about because of Kakarotto.
Goku is shown to take Picollo's Special Beam Cannon to the stomach/abdomen where you can easily stay alive for a bit till you bleed out and/or your remaining organs shut down but Goku dies pretty quickly where Kakarotto takes it to the chest where his heart and lungs are and manages to gain consciousness, yell at the others and call for a healer surviving with a near instant fatal wound for several minutes.
Though this could just show that Kakarotto is a tougher son of a b**** than Goku was.
Either way I say Kakarotto is tougher than he seems and not immortal.

If you've ever read the comic Oglaf (NSFW, incidentally), there was a character like that - Morag the Immortal, who wound up fighting a giant monster and getting her entire body bitten off. Turns out that you need lungs to talk. They had to blow into her neckstump.

I have noticed this topic for the first time. It wasn't even once mentioned in the german comment section till today, so I thought I express my opinion on this as well. Many people assuming that Kakarot used Porunga on Namek to be immortal, right? In that case, it really sounds somewhat unbelievable that Vegeta on Namek would allow Kakarot to ask a Namekian to fulfill his wish. What if Kakarot used the earthly Dragonballs to become immortal? We have a big gap between "Krilin swears revenge on Kakarot for the murder of Master Roshi" and "Kakarot and Raditz meet after Tenshinhan & Yamchu have been eliminated". We have plenty of room for more specials In this time we have Kami + Mr. Popo, Piccolo Daimao, Krilin + Yamchu, Tenshinhan (but these two survive until Raditz comes). Imagine Kakarot loses a fight against Piccolo / Kami / Krilin (no preference), but survives. Then he trys to find the Dragonballs or the heroes use the Dragonballs. And at the last moment, Kakarot jumps into Oolong style and wishes for immortality (does not automatically mean that he is the strongest). And imagine, he killed both Shenron just like Piccolo. Man, that would be the crazy. There are some scenes in the comic that support this theory. Raditz and Vegeta likely did not care if he could die. Likely they knew that Kakarot would not be able to be so badly injured to the verge of death because he was immortal. Maybe Raditz does not say that because he loves his brother. Maybe Raditz is literally not able to kill Kakarot no matter what kind of Mystic power he gets because Kakarot is immortal. That is in the past, perhaps Kakarot has not yet told Raditz that he is immortal. And he protects Raditz, because he knew that the destruction of the Heloite-capital city ultimately could not kill him. -> In any case an interesting theory. I myself don't believe Kakarot is immortal. But we see some kind of foreshadowing. So, I wouldn't be pissed if that happens. Definitely, not pissed like the lack of foreshadow in the Senzu-bean in Son Bra's glove incident.

I myself don't believe Kakarot is immortal. But we see some kind of foreshadowing. So, I wouldn't be pissed if that happens. Definitely, not pissed like the lack of foreshadow in the Senzu-bean in Son Bra's glove incident. Using your images for disproving the theory. U18 Fisting Kakarotto. The back of his armor hasn't been broken through, suggesting Vegeta only went through Kakarot's chest area. Raditz didn't hear Vegeta say "leave him, don't heal him yet" so that's more of too much trust from Raditz. And Vegeta wanted the bastard to shut up, I don't see why he couldn't take advantage of that during this time when he's unconscious, but that doesn't directly prove Kakarot's immortal. Raditz "cannot kill his brother." Notice how Tien said "so there's a heart in this Saiyan" but it doesn't look like Old Kai disagrees with that statement. If he did, he probably would've said "you're not entirely right on that one Mr. Cyclops. He cannot kill his brother, yet he does not have any attachment(lack of better word) towards his brother, his heart is still malicious towards him, something else is preventing him from killing is brother" which would've been a bigger reveal. Still, I'll give this one a slide. "I gotchu bro!" He knew his tactic would've killed everyone... every Helior on the planet, an Oozaru with 10x strength and more durability was likely to survive the collapse. (Likely, but Kakarot appeared to be near death.) Still, he protected Raditz bc he didn't wanna be alone again (see the Past U13, "why am I always alone" or something like that). Idk man, most of these are ambiguous in meaning they could go either way, nothing of these scenes are truly a "Spoiler- forshadowing." (supposed to mock "spoiler warning" but the parallel might have been lost.) If we want a standard, take a look at "Ginyu = Cold" where the "that music sounds like your parties," Frost demon could control 4th form easily?... seemed unlikely of a motive, for anyone except Frieza who lost pathetically to Goku and Cooler who wanted to one-up his shitbrother, (Cold in DBM had his two transformations, his 2nd restriction form was supposedly near Frieza's full power/Mecha form) and the spiral dodge from Bra's attack, ain't no way that isn't Ginyu being fabulous. A normal person would've sidestepped that and moved... sideways. The two augmentation forms implies Cold trained... his body did, but no one would train that much, not even Cooler got a second form. Plus, the big one, "Someone from U8 isn't in their natural body." Those are huge call to foreshadow about why Cold seemed to be different compared to the normal Frost Demon. Kakarotto is immortal? Unless he made dialogue references to "my life doesn't matter" or some quote as such, it's everyone else sneaking in a line or two. Even then, the best an immortal insane Majin SS could do at this point is just kill the audience easily, not like Ginyu who could potentially swap bodies into Bra or Vegito and still use their powers to the fullest... SS2 Brayu?

With the new page today, people may bring up the u13 immortality and I still think they don't have it. I don't think Kakarot would think about immortality when on Earth. After Roshi, there aren't many people left on Earth to oppose him and we see Kakarot succeded in exterminating the Earth, excluding Yamcha and Tien.
He may have overheard the dragon balls before on Earth and Krillin and co. probably tried using Shenron but failed. If Kakarot did have immortality why didn't he tell Raditz during their training montage/mission? Why was Raditz concerned about him after tanking the destruction of a planet? Why hasn't Kakarot bragged yet of his advantage in the tournament by being a immortal? Its becaus he's not.
The only way I can see that being possible is if he wished for it on Namek but I think both Frieza and the saiyans failed on Namek to even use the dragon balls. Kakarot surviving so many lethal attacks is because of dumb luck and saiyan's insane durability. After impaled by a special beam cannon both Goku and Raditz lived a few minutes afterwards. Vegeta and his brutal beating on Earth, against Recoome, against Frieza and still lived for a few moments after shot in the heart.
And Kakarot shot in the heart only shows that Majins can't be killed by anything physical but probably just blown up completely. Every majin in dbz only died by being completely eradicated. Spoopivich, Yamu, Pui Pui, Yakon, Vegeta, Dabura was eaten. We even see Dabura after being impaled by Cell was still alive for several matches. The Cell jrs maybe an exception but they were decapitated so I don't see how they could walk away from that lol.
So what we see here is not immortality but the additions of being a majin.

I'm skeptical too... Kakaroth having such a big advantage over anybody, and not boasting about it? Nope. Don't buy it. Not until official confirmation. About the incongruence of Naurb and him, one died and another din't: maybe the Heloite aimed for the heart, but is their heart in the same spot as a Saiyan's? That Laser is so small that even a few centimeters matter, the line between instant death and something manageable by a Majin-spell. And Kakaroth is a hell of a tank even without it!

Are you the artist of some specials? Naurb also was shot 2 times, simultaneously. Also, who knows, maybe he will wake up next pages.
