The sticker set that had SSJ Pink Black Goku also had Gogeta for some reason.

Like, it's unimaginative and unaesthetic... And I wanted to convice my self that the series could improve from this arc on. So silly.
Yeah, I still expecting that is not pink like everyone says, I mean if not white, a red-haired transformation would suit Black too.

It's also interesting that FT Trunks doesn't have a new transformation in there. I wonder if he will get SSB while training with Vegeta.
Toriyama wrote:In Battle of God it was red, so I figured for revival of ‘F’ I should go with blue. That’s all (laughs). Well actually I was thinking about having it be white, but then it would color-clash with the “next-enemy” ... So I figured I should save it for another occasion.”
I think Trunks will get Ssj3 first and after this arc he might train with Whis alongside Goku & Vgetea.
I think Trunks is going back home after this arc.

People seem to think that because SSJ Gogeta is in the same... set of merch I guess, as Pink Black, he'll appear in Super. This is not the case, however, as Broly is also there. The only thing it actually shows is that Black has a pink form.

This looks so wrong... :problem:
They really need to get them back into their RF outfits.
July 9th 2018 will be remembered as the day Broly became canon.

Guys just to be clear these are official art from Bandai. This does not mean that gogeta or broly will be back, it only means black has pink hair transformation(as of right now).

He appears along with the "SSJ Pink" Black Goku in the leaked image. But nothing is really pointing towards Gogeta appearing in Super.goddammit why

The pink hair really works well with his black outfit. I wonder what the form is called?

Anime Kitten wrote:Wowwee, I can't believe people are still complaining! It's just a hair color. Why does everyone complain about recolors? Would you rather have something like this? And then they contradict it by saying Super Saiyan Blue is a dumb name. Isn't it just a recolor? Oy... there's a bit of my steam, so forgive me.
There will always be unhappy people. :roll: I have more issue with the how quickly we're getting new transformations... when barely any effort was put in. It sort of cheapens the weight behind the stuff we get excited over, when it almost feels like they're trying to just fill a merch quota. Case in point: all the crazy non-canon SS3 and SS4 forms the video games have introduced to characters that previously couldn't attain them.

All that being said, I love all the post-2013 forms. They were entirely necessary in broadening the scope of strength we witness Goku (and Vegeta, I guess) reach. I dig the colors and the (not entirely consistent) powers they possess. Super Saiyan Blue is a fantastic name and if this new form isn't jokingly referred to as "Super Saiyan Pink" at some point, I'll eat my shorts.

I only wonder how much is too much. If they're just changing hair colors and calling them new forms every bloody year, should we want new forms? I'm on board thus far, but I would find distaste in any more down the road.

It will most likely be called SSJ Pink, for the same reason they changed ssj god ssj to ssj blue because of convenience purposes.

I love the new forms too, they're awesome (and in my top favorite forms). I just don't get all the complaining over something like this. No one would ever think two, three years ago that there'd be complaining over new content in YEARS.

I didn't like where new forms were going since SSJ3 to be honest. After that everybody just wanted bigger hair, muscles, and fur which I didn't really like. I thought the SSG transformation was a nice change of pace.

Here's a thought: if SS4 was called something else from the beginning, would people have minded as much? I've always had this notion that SS3 was the result of gaining unworldly knowledge on how to push past the pinnacle (SS2) - almost like an affront to nature.

Going any further just seems silly at that point, but SS4's method was at least more interesting than "I rage'd harder." It was linked to the original Oozaru form and finding calamity in that power. The Super Saiyan Oozaru was a really cool concept, honestl- ...holy shit, am I praising GT? :shifty: If we actually had some more development in the history and trials of the Saiyan race (besides iffy and inconsistent flashbacks), I could totally see the SSO being a big part.

...the color-fur bods and magical "+1 PANTS" were dumb, but I was down for the wild hair and returning tails.

I think it depends, if they position it as an evil Super Saiyan form I could see it being something like "Super Saiyan Devil", and if the form is exclusive to Black because he is Goku's body with someone else in it then it might have a name that reflects that.

It might not be called anything specifically like how SSGSS wasn't named in the movie or arc they just rolled with it. Black's in a Saiyan body. Saiyans can transform that exactly what this might be instead of Yellow it's Pink because of Blacks weird ki that Beerus and Whis talked about.

Yo. Just because it's "new content", doesn't mean people should just accept it, especially if it's not... good. I myself, would say that this series is pretty awful, especially considering the "new content" has been pretty much re-using old concepts and/or re-coloring them. The only actual "new" thing is Black's motivation(?) and even then, it seems to be a typical shonen antagonist's ambition.

Then why exactly do you watch it, if it's "pretty awful"?
