Why does Goku turn SSB so damn often? It'd be more aesthetically pleasing if he used something like, say, Super Saiyan 3 once in a while. It would offer more variety and it would convey the same damn thing. Krillin's way weaker than Goku; it doesn't matter whether he's SS3 or SSB. Is animating Blue easier or something?

Goku does turn SSB quite often, I wonder why..
That makes me question why he didn't transform to blue against gohan

I have no issue with Goku using SSJB. Given the context of the Tournament of Power, it'd make more sense for Goku to know just how well some of the guys on his team would do against a person who's near, at the same level or above the power tier that Goku's SSJB form is, even is Goku is drastically holding back. Because there are going to many people are as strong and even much strong than Goku at that battle royal.

So true, he beat gohan fair and square with nothing but raw power just this episode as well!
Also 18> Blue

He used ssj3 in episode 76.

I made a bet with Alee9977 that Vegeta won't be beaten quickly by an opponent. If I lose, I switch my avatar to Vegeta getting beat by hit. If I win, he switches it to Vegeta holding Black by his hair. This will last a month.

Goku and Gohan are lucky to have those 2 as a team, they even dare challenge both Goku and Gohan together because God Goku seems to be not enough of a challenge for the two of them.

Goku is the strongest then Vegeta then Gohan then Buu then 17(17 could surpass buu) then 18 then Krillin then Piccolo then Tien then Roshi at least that's what super is telling me.

Well their sparring was interrupted by Chi-Chi, and didnt Goku mention Gohan was forcing him to put some effort?

No way 17 will surpass Boo! he trained to the point of slimming down! cut the boy some slack, it takes effort for that to happen in such a short amount of time :lol:

He didn't say this particular line, he did go SS after testing him but that's it..

I personally am going with the headcanon of goku transforming to blue every chance he gets to get used to blue completely

I don't see why anyone would be surprised that 17 has gotten stronger ! we clearly see him with a white aura in the opening and there was a scan a couple of months ago that a japanese friend translated to me which stated "17 has become a strong and reliable alley"

Marketing. Probably the same reason they have Gohan as SSJ for now. Got to have someone with the classic look.

Can't place 17, Piccolo, Roshi and Tien until they have been shown.

Not to mention it's been what... 13 years since he was last around?

Or his wife, that would be like 4 new characters we will be getting. If they're confirmed to show up in super.

Well, Most people assumed his been dead all these years. So I guess that's where the surprise is from.

Why would they assume that ? Piccolo heavily stated that he was alive when they wished for Cell's victims,Krillin wished for both his and 18's bombs to be removed and we literally see him in the buu saga.

Same reason why people think that Toriyama stole the idea of 17 being a park ranger from Teamfourstar.
