Please... Don't play that on me, if you want to consider only the manga. Okay, not problem with that... But "The Super Saiyan essence" goes
far beyond that, you know... What are the first words to come up in our minds when we talk about DB/Z/GT? Yes...
Goku,
Super Saiyans, Story, Vegeta, Battles, Epic Scenes, Power and etc.
If we take into account all the media, anime episodes, movies, specials, OVAs, videogames, parodies we get at the easy conclusion that Super Saiyan is in fact the essence of the series in overall.

Of course not! I would prefer no more DBZ if we had a Saga without Super Saiyans. I don't want any new transformation I just want the original one, SSJ2 and SSJ3! They deserve more consideration from the author itself and TOEI (who loves to forget about SSJ2)
