Yes! Black could use Caroni's beautiful rose attack against our heroes. It would be a fitting match.

If they're real I doubt this is the end of the arc so hopefully there will be plenty of chances for Trunks and Vegeta to get some fights.

Also, Black's not a saiyan, so he shouldn't be called Super Saiyan Rose. Rather he just be called Rose Black or something.
Rose isn't a color? Also if he's in a saiyan body, than its a super saiyan form.
Rose is a color.
Also at Makai, I'm not exactly sure why colors are less creative than numbers...

That's a totally rational response to potentially fake episode titles and not at all over the top.
Well I always say that yet I somehow I find myself watching it again. :wink:

It's this really new thing that few people have discovered. It's this bizarre thing called "hyperbole". If you don't say you're exaggerating, then people get offended.

Rose is not a color. Rose is a flower. People might compare the color of something to a rose but it isn't color.

Rose is the color halfway between red and magenta on the HSV color wheel, also known as the RGB color wheel, on which it is at hue angle of 330 degrees. Rose is one of the tertiary colors on the HSV (RGB) color wheel. The complementary color of rose is spring green.

Should've been more specific. The flower came first so shouldn't it be considered more of a flower than a color?

A lot of colors work like that. The word orange was originally exclusive to the fruit, with the color later being named after said fruit. Doesn't make them any less of a color.

Not to mention the word rose is just French for pink.

Oh. Interesting. I didn't know that.
I assumed it came from 'rose', the french word for 'pink' (or the flower).

You're right, but I still don't think it's fair to say it's named after a color.

Super Saiyan Rose ? wasn't it bad enough they were naming forms after colors but now they're going to name them after flowers ?

Are they going to change Ssjb to Ssj violet and normal Ssj to Ssj sunflower ?

It wouldn't be that big of a deal if he wasn't written as bad as he is.

I really hope I won't end up saying this as well but if these are true...let's just say it's getting harder and harder to remain a fan of this show.

Super Saiyan Rose is a pretty cool name. Hopefully it's real.

Did you seriously just miss the discussion above about how Rose is a color?
And what's so bad about naming the forms after colors? Using numbers isn't any more creative.

I'm starting to feel like people are looking for reasons to be upset at the show.

Animation and writing is one thing, but are color and names really that bad?

Is this not the same series where people are named after underwear?

Is it the creative aspect? Because no one seems to care that SSJ1 and 2 look so much alike that some still have a hard time telling the difference, even today.

Edit: For that matter I've ever liked the forms being named after numbers either. I always thought it was dumb. But that shouldn't really be a reason I should hate it.

Color discussions again... It's so exhausting.

Did people also start with Blue=Sea=Pirate=One Piece, they're turning Dragon Ball into One Piece!

Colors don't have any meaning, unless you give it one based on your stereotypes/culture.
Wait to see what the show actually implies, or if it's just a bloody color.

So we can only be mad at writing and animation?

I find the whole color-changing transformations to be really bad. Like, am I not allowed to dislike it just because it's just a color? Thats the exact reason why I don't like it in the first place!

I understand if you don't like the color and thus don't like the transformation but I don't get not liking the fact that it's a recolor. It's literally the same transformation with different ki. No wonder it's just a color change. They aren't new transformations

I didn't say you couldn't be mad. If you don't like it that's cool. But I find the outrage over the top for something seemingly insignificant (and barely even confirmed to be an actual thing) . What form would you rather see that would make you happy that doesn't cross over into "lazy" or "fan fiction" ?

I'm curious how they're going to differentiate it from ssjblue in the manga. All these recent versions of ssj are made with the tv series (or movies) in mind first.
