Super Saiyans are not supposed to be out of control rage monsters. Rage is only the trigger for the transformation. And clearly Goku takes his anger out on Freeza from the jump.

All things he would've done had he not turned SSJ. Remember, Goku is the guy that wouldn't accept help against Piccolo in the 23rd TB because he didn't want to be disqualified.Akira wrote: ↑Sun Oct 13, 2019 7:03 pm The initial transformation to super saiyan wasn't the rage induced killfest some may have expected, but that saiyan gene was present. He did lose his head in a different sense, he became so battle hungry, he passed on chances to escape or outright kill Freeza. Goku let him power up to 100%, all for the sake of his lust for all out life or death combat. He wanted to break Freeza physically, and psychologically. He wanted to prove absolute saiyan dominance over his opponent.
The biggest truths aren't original. The truth is ketchup. It's Jim Belushi. Its job isn't to blow our minds. It's to be within reach.

Yeah, but in the case of Piccolo he just wanted to win for himself...with Frieza he actually wanted to break his spirit and made sure to twist the knife real good when he ended the fight. That's a departure for him.ABED wrote: ↑Sun Oct 13, 2019 10:02 pmAll things he would've done had he not turned SSJ.

Bulma: Of course! I'm not gonna pull a Frieza and screw it up!
Master Roshi: Bulma, I think Frieza failed because he wore too many clothes!

That and Goku was kinda disappointed that for all his power, Frieza has a bad habit of not realizing when he's in a losing situation and is just as stubborn has his lowest lackeys. For Goku that must have been disappointing.
