Did Goku ever call Vegeta friend and vice versa?

In the manga or Japanese dub of any Toei anime?

In English:

In Japanese:

There's also the final episode where they call each other friend in the Funimation dub:

"That's lame" lol

Not in the manga, no. At least I'm pretty sure they haven't addressed each other like that in the manga.

Do you prefer this English depiction of the characters' relationship and personalities? Do you remember if the BR dub has this kind of change, if you watched it?
