Stages of SSJ
Moderators: Kanzenshuu Staff, General Help
SSJ1: Kind of cool, Goku and Gohan made it super powerful by mastering it.
SSJ2: Badass, Gohan made it a "I am going to kill you so muhc" kind of thing, this form is his and Majin Vegeta's alone.
SSJ3: Taking things too far is what I think. But the limition and raw power of it, makes it okay.
SS4: Awesome. I call it the true SSJ3 as you can only go this form if you can control the Golden Oozaru and to do that you must first be able to go SSJ1 to go Golden Oozaru (which I call true SSJ2), the power and coolness of it makes it the best of the 4 forms.

I like the original because it doesn't change all that much about the Saiyan, yet makes them appeaer so much different. It has style but ends up being overshadowed by Artificial Humans although it makes a fair comeback via Goku and Gohan during the Cell Game, when it far surpasses the varients used by Vegeta and Trunks. I love how the Aura is drawn on it at that point, too.
Type 2 within Level 1 was pretty sweet when Vegeta used it, but it didn't hold its steam. Type 3 looked sweet with Trunks but I tend to associate it with Broli so I don't really much care for it. Plus it was rather useless, although the filler fight sequences between Trunks and Cell in the Anime were pretty sweet.
Gohan as Level 2 is undeninably awesome, and the aura in the Manga is jaw-droppingly amazing and forever in my mind. I don't mind that Vegeta and Goku later use it, so much that it ends up following the original state so much that it ends up near useless very fast, although Level 2 Vegeta is pretty cool against Chibi Boo.
Level 3 looks fricken awesome but loses steam faster than any other state before it, as Goku shows it off once for 2 chapters, takes off, then is used by Gotenks for a little while, then Gohan comes and makes even a fused Level 3 look like a joke and so on. Level 3 didn't bring much difference with the aura but the hair and face design was a pretty radical change, and cool for a while. Goku's little fight with Boo using it was sweet, albiet VERY short. It was very raw and savage looking yet refined. I love and hate the drawbacks to it.
I like playing as Level 4 in Budokai 3, but I didn't like the design as much as any other. It was cool, but just...even more redundant than 3, and 3 was really quite unnecessary.
Hm. I guess I like all of the forms for different reasons, but the original takes the cake because that's the stage Vegetto owns Boo in.

I prefer SSj4 to any other form, because I like the concept of effectively mashing together a Oozaru and a Super Saiyan together. Plus, the tail kicks ass.
SSj2 is second, because although when Goku and Vegeta use this form it is next to useless, when Gohan uses it in the Cell Games it is so badass it hurts.
The original SSj was ok, but I guess I was expecting the thing that Freeza feared most to be more than a hair change.
And SSj3...eck. It's redundant, drains too much energy and makes Goku's hair more mental than any hair has the right to be. Ever.

SSj3 only really works for Goku and Gotenks...
I.E, a text RPG that started years ago... I needed a character to power up to take on a lot of enemies at once... and SSJ3 was the logical choice, but it looks absolutely terrible with him... to the extent that I had to comment on this in the story, and then have him never do that again... :O.
But eh, SSJ3 Goku in Legends and UB22 was ok, although the colorscheme in UB22 was kind of awkward...
SSJ2 was just... coolest in execution. SSJ4 was overdone, but if it hadn't been it would have been a lot more awesome on my charts...
What redemes SSJ3 for me is really Falcouner's SSJ3 theme. Possibly the most awesome song to come out of the dub.

My favorite is SSJ2 it just looks so awsome mainly on Gohan. SSJ3 there is just too much hair for me and there is the lack of eyebrows.

I love SSJ2. On Gohan, Goku or Vegeta. With the hair becoming for finite and detailed, looking like it was made of solid gold, and because it made anyone who used the form that much MORE badass.

It's either SSj4 Gogeta, or base Goku while building the Spirit Bomb. The world may never know.Mac2492 wrote: I still don't know who the strongest character in the Dragon Ball GT universe was.

So are GT Cell and Freeza, since they defy the laws of death in 3 major ways thus meaning they are unkillable and eventually would overcome anything. Then get in a fight with each other which would be resolved via Mario Kart: Double Dash.
I don't really know what form Brolli is in when his hair is blue-ish, but him in that form is my favorite...I don't know why, it's just so cool

I think it's just his collar device restraining his power in such a way that it causes such a weird appearance. Think of it as psuedo-Super Saiyan on crackBig Momma wrote:I don't really know what form Brolli is in when his hair is blue-ish, but him in that form is my favorite...I don't know why, it's just so cool


As for favourite SSJ form... I would have to say either the original or SSJ2. I'm going to say the first form since it was the most dramatic. I will always remember the first time I saw Goku go SSJ on Namek. One of thee best scenes in the entire anime (and perhaps even the manga). SSJ2 is similiar in a lot of ways to SSJ but it is unique in it's own way (though it doesen't seem so unique after the Cell arc). My favourite saiyan transformation of all though is the Golden Oozaru form. I mean you take a super saiyan give him a tail like any full blooded saiyan should have and then make him transform. BOOM! You have yourselves one giant furry power house. Just watch where he steps....

.

Also, Chibi Goku in any SSJ form. Seeing those just set off a fanboy scream in my heart.
