Yeah, I agree. Definitely not what I was expecting, but not disappointing at all.Gyt Kaliba wrote:That's what it looks like to me. Which is an idea I really like, now that I think about it. It'd be something unique to him, and it makes sense that he'd spend most of his time toying with that form since he'd be on hi sown more or less back in his time.
I think both versions of the show said that the power output was similar, but I've always gotten the feeling that SS2 is actually stronger overall as well. But they're probably pretty close.CaBrPi wrote:Yeah, I agree. Definitely not what I was expecting, but not disappointing at all.
And doesn't Grade 3 have the same power output as Super Saiyan 2 anyway?

Dude, his muscles are huge in that panel of him holding onto Vegeta's wrist. Just look at his biceps and compare them to the previous panel showing them.Piccolo Daimao wrote:I thought Trunks only transformed into a regular Super Saiyan? His muscles don't look engorged.
Hmm...yeah, now I see it. He does look quite a bit larger than Vegeta. It's probably because I'm used to seeing his Super Saiyan Grade III in Saiyan armour.CaBrPi wrote:Dude, his muscles are huge in that panel of him holding onto Vegeta's wrist.

Or his hands.

Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter. The more down-to-earth Goku has no illusions about being responsible for maintaining social order, or for setting some kind of moral example for the entire world. Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.
I'm not talking about which one is stronger, since we don't know that, but we know from the canon story that SS2 is superior.DBZGTKOSDH wrote:We don't know what Salagir has in his mind about which of the two forms is stronger.Saiga wrote:why wouldn't he aim for SS2 instead, which is far superior?
He ignores the 10x multiplier for Oozaru, and I think even the 50x multiplier for Super Saiyan. Both of them are from Toriyama.Saiga wrote:I'm not talking about which one is stronger, since we don't know that, but we know from the canon story that SS2 is superior.
Of course that wouldn't matter to Salagir either I suppose.

Only 10 years have passed from Trunks point of view and, like he said, he has been busy rebuilding the world. Vegeta has been training for 30 years and he hasn't been busy with nothing else.Saiga wrote:Meh, I don't like it. Grade III is a crappy form, and Trunks abandoned it to master the Super Saiyan form like the others. Why go back and master Grade III when it is inferior? And if he went to the effort to do that, why wouldn't he aim for SS2 instead, which is far superior?
