No, Beerus said that he lost the form, but absorbed its power, which is why his power barely decreased.KameRule wrote:Beerus said that Goku lost the SSJGod power while fighting him though. It was when he absorbed Beerus's attack that he absorbed the power of SSJGod into himself.

James Teal (Animerica 1996) wrote:When you think about it, there are a number of similarities between the Chinese-inspired Son Goku and that most American of superhero icons, Superman. Both are aliens sent to Earth shortly after birth to escape the destruction of their homeworlds; both possess super-strength, flight, super-speed, heightened senses and the ability to cast energy blasts. But the crucial difference between them lies not only in how they view the world, but in how the world views them.
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.

Well he does in the Super trailer I think. So he still can.

It's already been confirmed that the beginning of Super will take place before Battle of Gods. So that doesn't confirm anything for post BoG or RF Goku yet.Polyphase Avatron wrote:Well he does in the Super trailer I think. So he still can.
I'm re-watching Dragon Ball GT in full on my blog. Check it out if you're interested in my thoughts on the series as I watch through it!
Re: Did You Really Believe That Goku Can No Longer Become A
The way I see it is that Goku didn't completely master his God power in BoG which is why his hair & aura didn't change. After spending the next 13 months training, his regular Super Saiyan & God mixed to make Bluper Saiyan. So technically when he goes Bluper, he still IS turning into an SS. Just one modified by his godly power.
When someone tells you, "Don't present your opinion as fact," what they're actually saying is, "Don't present your opinion with any conviction. Because I don't like your opinion, and I want to be able to dismiss it as easily as possible." Don't fall for it.

RE: Did You Really Believe That Goku Can No Longer Become A SS
Yes, because that's what we've been led to believe. And I think I still kinda do. At least until the concepts brought into 'F' get fully expanded on and explained.
In Battle of Gods, after his first Super Saiyan God transformation, he turned Super Saiyan, but his body was only starting to learn the use of that power. My understanding is that, after Whis' training, Goku and Vegeta's bodies fully acquired that Super Saiyan God power that Goku was starting to use in Battle of Gods, while outside of that form.
The million dollar question is wether Goku and Vegeta HAVE Super Saiyan God power or if they CAN USE it in battle. This is what we need to know.
In Heroes, their base forms from 'F' are refered to as "神(かみ)を超えたサイヤ人" (Saiyan that has surpassed god) which many people though would be the official name for Super Saiyan God SS. Incidentally, it's not directly refering to Super Saiyan God, as it's written out as "kami" instead of "goddo" so it's vague enough that it doesn't really point one way or the other, even if it almost implies that.
In both Heroes and Xenoverse, Goku refers to Super Saiyan God SS with the term "超サイヤ人神を超えた力" (Power that has surpassed Super Saiyan God), while Vegeta says "超サイヤ人神の上を行く力" (Power that goes beyond Super Saiyan God). They're saying the same thing but, along with Goku's "explanation" of it being Super Saiyan with the power of Super Saiyan God, it just doesn't say what we want to know.
TL;DR: Do they tap into Super Saiyan God power and THEN go Super Saiyan? Because they trained to attain that Super Saiyan God power even in their base form, do they always go Super Saiyan God SS now? We really don't know. I guess that's the only true answer right now.
Off-topic-ish: At least with Gohan we can say that he was SUPPOSED to not go Super Saiyan, since the requirement to go into his Ultimate mode was "do that Super thingy". But you can explain that away with him slacking off, which could also explain why he's always getting his hidden potential unlocked.
Though, ya gotta wonder what would happen if he tried to go Super Saiyan 2 instead.

Not really. The reason why Goku could keep up with Beerus after losing his god form, is because his body already had absorbed God Ki. And because of that, his power didn't decreased so much.KameRule wrote: Beerus said that Goku lost the SSJGod power while fighting him though.

A world without Dragon Ball is just boring.

Re: Did You Really Believe That Goku Can No Longer Become A
Actually I think it was more his body was using something similar to adrenaline, Beerus never flat out said Goku absorbed it also Goku lost the upperhand pretty quickly (after the Kamehameha blast I believe) and if Goku did absorb the power of SSG at that point then there was no way he should have transformed into SSG again. I think when Goku went SS his body was in the process of absorbing the SSG power and only became fully absorbed when Goku took in the Beerus bomb attack, hence why Goku looks so out of it afterwards.FortuneSSJ wrote:Not really.

Edit-
Furthermore look at Vegeta he had no SSG and yet like Goku even he kept up with Beerus and had the upper hand, and just like Goku it did not last long.

"It seems as though while you had turned God and were fighting me, you absorbed that world into your body. Which is why, even though you've returned to normal, you haven't powered down all that much."
He flat out said Goku absorbed it, and he's saying while Goku's still trying to push back Beerus' attack, in response to Goku keeping up with him all that time after the Super Saiyan God transformation ran out.
BEFORE the other temporary transformation, before he (as you said) supposedly would've absorbed Beerus' attack.

Re: Did You Really Believe That Goku Can No Longer Become A
The key phrase being "it seems". I am not denying his body never absorbed SSG at that point all I am saying is his body was still in the process of absorbing SSG hence why his upperhand against Beerus didn't last long nor do any real damage to him. If he had fully absorbed SSG when they were still in the cave then Goku shouldn't have been able to go SSG anymore.

Re: Did You Really Believe That Goku Can No Longer Become A
You said that like Beerus uses "it seems" as if doesn't know what's up. He does. Which is why he goes on to saying "Which is why...you haven't powered down all that much." Which is why. Acknowledging that "it seems" that happened.Baggie_Saiyan wrote:The key phrase being "it seems".
I'm focusing on that because you say that:
