Are they scraping the LSSJ form?

Post by HybridSaiyan » Wed May 31, 2017 7:35 pm

Kale's new Saiyan form is obviously the same as Broly's as a Legendary Super Saiyan, but do you guys think they'll give it a new name and call it "Berserk Super Saiyan" or something on those lines?

It's probably just going to be called SSJ. They never really gave a new name to whatever it was Trunks had. Video games might give it a new name though, as they tend to do. I couldn't make any predictions on what that could be though. I feel like the LSSJ tag will always be exclusive to Broly to make him that much more "special".

The more I think about it...the more it would be a huuuge mistake to call it LSSJ.

There is no legend in U6. Why would she be a Legendary Super Saiyan?

No need for her to be called Legendary Super Saiyan. Broly fit that part. He was THE LEGENDARY SUPER SAIYAN.

Find out on the next episode of Dragon Ball Super (literally next episode)

I think It's unlikely to be called LSSJ because the U6 has literally no SSJ legend. They didn't even know they could transform.

After tingly feeling in the back from last episode, anything can be used as an explanation really. Inb4 they end up calling Super Saiyan Green.

I doubt that's true because this is her normal SSJ form

What parts not true? The not getting the LSSJ name, or her not getting a name for it at all?

In either case, you might be right, I'm just speculating based on past events.

Yeah, and Kale will probably have a vocabulary of more than one word, so there...

Also her hair is green for no reason, while Broly's was only due to the mind control crown's effects. In movie 10 his hair was completely gold. So there ya go - different form after all :lol:

In new material they have always gave Broly's LSSJ form green hair.

To be honest, I really hope Vegeta will name it "Legendary Super Saiyan" as it fits the description, and also makes sense considering nowadays everyone can go Super Saiyan.
Out of universe everyone will keep calling the form LSSJ so they must as well name it like that. Or at least name it "SSJ Berseker" because they must name it.

I always wondered he had green hair in some movies and regular golden in others. Now we know this makes no sense to call it LSSJ!?

Well to be fair they always forced the green hair schtick in pretty much all video games, even made his hair literally green and not just lime in SSj3 in one of those, if I recall correctly. Broly's hair was greenish throughout most of Movie 8, but a traditional shade of golden in the final sequence, and this hue was kept for the entirety of Movie 10 too. It's consistent with the theory that it was due to the crown working its magic. The games on the other hand are not really consistent with the movies, but I guess they rolled with the lime color gimmick, as it gave Broly something to distinguish himself more. Anyway, they'll need something else to justify the hair color for Kale, that's for sure.

I personally hate the idea of bringing the LSSJ form regardless of how you say it, to the Super continuity. Everybody has watched the movies so we all know who she's immolating. So now the question is why the need to make her Green?

Dude, Broly has zero personality. He literally has no merit of his own other than his big muscles and exaggerated strength. What does it matter if another person has the LSSj (even assuming it's called that, which I doubt)? It's not like it's Broly that everyone cares about, it's LSSj. The person who uses it is secondary to the form itself.

I am not referencing the Golden Great Ape and only Broly.

Broly in his own, by both game, and wiki notations, is a Legendary Super Saiyan, holding not only the form that was spoken about for thousands of years through folklore, but the title itself.

You realize the games add a lot of things that arent canonical and the wiki is written by people who play the games or know of them generally correct?

Well in your first sentence you said, "It's probably just going to be called SSJ." I was saying that this Berserk SSJ form can't follow what your first sentence says because she already has an SSJ form. Yea at this point it all is speculation. I wouldn't personally mind if it was called LSSJ. I think it'd be neat to see how well LSSJ fares against SSJB under Super's context

Broly is the LSSJ. So I doubt Toei will write Broly off. So Kale will get a new name for her form.
