Sure we can always use the "Holding Back" card :D
I mean, it's not like it'd be necessarily false to say that. People only really say it because Goku does in fact sandbag.

We've sure never seen Goku take a bad hit when he was taken off guard, now have we? :roll: And for getting stomped so badly, Kale was up and fighting again less than a minute later in-universe with no noticeable damage.

He also has this weird habit of fighting people stronger than him at a deliberate disadvantage. He did it in the Future Trunks, fighting Black as SS2 when Trunks told us Black was as strong or stronger than Goku's SS3.

These things shouldn't exist in the first place. In at least any official Dragonball material, yet here we are...

Black was screwing around too and I think Goku knew that. So, he went Super Saiyan 2 and tried to bring out Black’s power.

Goku barely took a backseat in the Buu saga, at best he took a leisurely stroll round back while everyone else cried for him to come back.

Apparently, in the next EP Goku will be able to face Kale (with his fully controlled Bersek form) and Caulifla SSJ2 at the same time. Nullifying this "impression" that Kale has the same level as the Goku SSB.

Anyway, people do not waste time and already criticize the Blue transformation, we do not even know if it will lose.
As I said on some other topics, this is the most hated transformation of all, anything is already a reason for this ...

Goku is still recovering (so theoretically the SSB is not in full power), and it is plausible Kefla to be at a level capable of at least rivaling Goku Blue, nothing wrong here
She's in her control Super Saiyan form when fighting with Cali against Goku in the NEP. In fact, the only scene with Berserk Kale is her pushing Goku back, Goku shooting her with his foot, pushing her back, and her reverting to her controlled Super Saiyan form.
No, apparently, the controlled Berserker form is the way we saw it in the preview. Look at the image below.

[spoiler]Image[/spoiler]

In this image (EP 113) Kale is in his regular SSJ form, and his hair is looking more yellow than green.

But in the two images below, her hair is green, just like when it stays in the Berseker state (shown in EP 100). Goku is also saying that she has completely controlled this transformation (in the synopsis the same thing is said).

[spoiler]Image
Image[/spoiler]

Coincidentally, in VJUMP I think (a few months ago) Kale herself was shown with her hair just like the preview of EP 114, green (not yellow like her regular SSJ transformation) and without being muscular and looking similar to the Broly.

[spoiler]Image[/spoiler]

At no point in the preview is shown Kale Berserker with the appearance of broly

So we can only conclude that the form shown in the preview is Kale's controlled Berseker, since it is different from her SSJ form
I don't know why people keep saying its Kale's controlled Berserker... Caulifla says that she is in perfect control of her energy when she is in regular SSJ, that's all. That doesn't mean she controls her Berserker form. And if she really controlled her Berserker form she wouldn't change her appearance like wtf, she obviously can't control her Berserker form this is why she has that SSJ form.

True. That's why I don't get too bent out of shape about how the characters scale up to each other. So many of them screw around that it's hard to get a sense of where they are relative to each other in the first place.

It's because she's shown to power up into her Berserker form at will in 101 and 113, plus this exchange from 101:

Goku:[Talking about Berserk Kale] Is she all right like that?
Caulifla: Yeah. She's got this ultra super power completely under control.

"Ultra Super" being what Caulifla called that form in an earlier scene.

Not exactly, there are a few that may have without necessarily being shemales.

Why does she use her Berserker form if she got this ultra-super-power completely under control in her regular form?

Why? It's just a videogame having fun with the material.
Dragon Ball was always a kid series and fans should stop being in denial.

They do. It's not prominent enough to be seen on most but some women do have a visible adam's apple.
BrolyKale wrote:Why does she use her Berserker form if she got this ultra-super-power completely under control in her regular form?
She doesn't. Her Beserker form is the ultra-super power. Caulifla was saying she has that form under control. The other form is some lower Super Saiyan form like Broly had before he roided out into Legendary. People are assuming Kale will control her full Berserker power and slim down again (a lot of them don't like the bulky Broly-esque form) but it remains to be seen if she can actually do that.

Ah right... she looked more calm when she was walking with Caulifla, I remember. But I still don't get why people say she won't transform into Broly anymore, that doesn't make any sense. This transformation is very unique to her (and Broly), no need to remove it, even though it looks ugly on a girl its still unique and shows how strong that form is.

Which was the obvious semantic point of my statement. It does not actually matter if it was wrong that they "do not have one" and if they literally have one, just that it is considerably more insignificant, so much that you can hardly even notice, which is not the case here with Kale. Obviously you understood the intent of my post because you still got the "visible/not visible" part. Not even a quick search brought real results just because it is so normal that it is hardly visible.

I think it's because of that V-jump piece that shows her skinny with dark green hair. It's the same page that had Yamamuro's designs for Jiren and Ribrianne. I personally think that's just her Super Saiyan form and we're just seeing variations with the colors, which HeroR pointed out with Blue, but we'll see next episode whether they're the same or different.
