Are you guys talking about Trunks when he has his hair tied back and its only spiking in the front during the 2nd stage cell episodes or when its all hanging down and spiked all over in the Bojack movie?
Both, actually. XD
My favorite Super Trunks form is this one from the future when he goes back to destroy the androids from his timeline.

My favorite is Broly's "controlled" super saiyan, it's so epic and wierd.
when I firt saw I tought "holy fuck is that ssj? OMG cool dude!"
Then I drank some beer and called to my friend and asked if she had seen that form and she was also OMFG. So in a nutshell, "controlled" super saiyan made as finns go even more crazy :wink:

Regular ol' Super Saiyan is the best form. And I really hate that it can even be designated as 'regular ol''.

I would've liked SSJ4 more if they made it explicit that it was not a Super Saiyan form. Or made it explicit that it was the true Super Saiyan (makes sense, y'know, having to have a tail, only pure-bloods able to do it, links to the universal Saiyan transformation...). As it is, it's just "well, new saga, time to tack on yet another Super Saiyan upgrade...".

Of course, there's also:

Gay Saiyans are known as "Super-Duper Saiyan!"

Bad joke.

My favourite form is just the first one, with the light yellow hair and all of the barely controllable power and intense emotion from when they first take that form.

I think they should have just stuck with there being only one form/level of super saiyan. However, they should have incorporated the sparking aura into the form because that is one of my favorite parts of dragonball and its just downright cool 8)

My personal favorite would have to be Super Saiya-jin 3. The originality and shear awesomeness of the design just blew me away. I also love how it is just the pinnacle for Saiya-jins DBZ.

I'm also a big fan of Trunk's Third Grade Super Saiya-jin form (USSj), just because it looks so cool and Trunks looks so powerful.

Here's my Top 7 List (I usually lists in sevens for DBZ things, just because I can never choose just five and 10 is usually too long and the number seven kind of has a significant part in the series):

1 ) SSj3 Goku
2 ) USSj Trunks
3 ) SSj2 Goku
4 ) LSSj Broly
5 ) SSj2 Teen Gohan
6 ) SSj2 Vegeta
7 ) SSj Vegeta

SSJ2 Gohan and SSJ4 Goku.
Yamcha: Do you remember the spell to release him - do you know all the words?
Bulma: Of course! I'm not gonna pull a Frieza and screw it up!
Master Roshi: Bulma, I think Frieza failed because he wore too many clothes!

I'll never understand why people like that form.

It's Kaio Ken with a yellow aura and no pupils...

I'm kinda like that form just because we only get to see it once and it's and interesting combination of Super Siaya-jin and the Kaio-Ken technique.

Well you could say the same thing for pretty much everything else too, "Super saiyan is kaioken with a yellow aura and hair" :wink:
