If you could name Trunks' new transformation?

Post by mecha3000 » Sun Oct 30, 2016 2:33 am

As far as I know, we still don't have an official name for it. I think the unofficial name is Super Trunks or False Super Saiyan God, right? But if you could officially give it a name, what would it be? Personally, I like the transformation for keeping with SSB Kaioken in having two auras and being a transformation unique to Trunks (while still having the original Super Saiyan hair).

I think I might go with the name: Godly Super Saiyan. I know we already have Super Saiyan God as a name, but I feel since Trunks is obviously not a Super Saiyan God (as far as we know) - The name fits because he's displaying traits similar to being a Super Saiyan God so it's a nice nod. Also, many fans are comparing his transformation to Broly's Legendary Super Saiyan form (which is unique to Broly like this form is unique to Trunks) so using "Godly" as an adjective just feels right.

Also, I feel like someone made a post like this already but since I don't know for sure - I'll just post this anyway.

Super Saiyan Asspull, or SSJA for short.

I imagine that would be hard to market for obvious reasons, haha.

Something along the lines of "Twin Super Saiyan", or something. Honestly I really hope it's not just "Super Trunks" because that's the least descriptive name I've seen thus far, but it's one I've seen being used. Do we have any official name for this thing yet from a decent source?

"Super Trunks" would suffice. I see no need to conjure a title. It'll be provided on its own. The placeholder is perfectly acceptable.

Semi-SSJ Blue or Fiery SSJ. The former because he was almost there, and the latter because fire is just like that. Then, in the future, Dragon Ball will turn to the elements of each character. Heartening SSJ, Thunderous SSJ, and the list goes on.

Super Trunks (God Mode/God/Blue).
He starts out bulking up like his muscular form that was called Super Trunks in merchandise back in the day IIRC, but then he returns to his normal size, most likely because of the God/Blue ki, so the name should reflect that.

And those are my 3 options.

Supa Torankusu.
Dragon Ball was always a kid series and fans should stop being in denial.

When someone tells you, "Don't present your opinion as fact," what they're actually saying is, "Don't present your opinion with any conviction. Because I don't like your opinion, and I want to be able to dismiss it as easily as possible." Don't fall for it.

Super Trunks isn't unofficial, it was explicitly used in the show. However, it's the name for Trunks in that form, rather than the name of the form itself.

Neon Trunks is a suggestion. Anyway, Super Trunks is what I go for until provided with another term.

"SSJGSSJ minus the SSJG" is my pick for the name.
Why I use "Geran" instead of "Jiren"
