Was Gohan an SSJ1 or an SSJ2 against Dabra?

A video parody of the far too ubiquitous debate. I thought it'd be a good idea to make light of it now, since it doesn't seem to be going anywhere in the near future. Sorry for any problems you have with the lip flaps.

That was brilliant. Good job. :)

Brilliant indeed. Not trying to turn this thread into an actual debate, but I just feel like pointing out that Anime-wise Gohan seems to be blatantly SSjin 2. Manga-wise of course he's SSjin, which makes no sense to me but I'll shut my mouth now.

It was like taking a Gohan vs. Dabra thread consisting of 10+ pages in a short video. Nice.

Wow, I never realized how geeky it sounds to pronounce "SSJ" in real life. Especially so many times.

As opposed to... "Goku" and "Vegeta" and everything else in the series...?

The term "SSJ" isn't actually part of the series, though.

What I'm getting at is, since most people just say "Super Saiyan" or "Super Saiya-jin" out loud, when you say "SSJ" it's kind of like saying "Oh-emm-gee" or "Ell-oh-ell." It sounds kinda dumb.

I'd just like to point out that I said it that way on purpose, for comedic effect. :o

Damn that Gohan really is an asshole. :lol:
Great vid Savage68. Since I like the simplest explanations, my current view on what happened is: Toriyama drew him as a SSJ 1, but Daizenshuu 7 retconned it to SSJ 2, due to the sheer stupidity of it.

And yeah the mouth flaps were off at times, but otherwise a funny little video. I certainly had a laugh, when Gohan revealed his true nature!

Thanks, that is indeed what I meant :P
I think my previous post came across harsher than I intended; I never meant to insult any "geeks" - I am one myself!

I think that goes without saying... when you sign up for a fandom forum, they may as well instantly give you a GEEK badge at the door. :wink:
