To end this debate: was Gohan a SSJ or SSJ2 against Dabra?

How so? Super Saiyans have a white aura unless powering up (in which case they're yellow), while Super Saiyan 2s consistently have yellow auras, never white ones.

He has white, does he not?

Actually, I might retract my statement after this:<div class='spoiler_toggle'>Spoiler: click to toggle</div><div class="spoiler" style="display:none;">

Goku is really only standing around, yet has a yellow aura. So there may be a bit of inconsistency.

Also, here are some scans of Gohan at the Budokai and against Dabra for anyone interested.

It was yellow for the light effect.

He's definitely a Super Saiyan.

Perhaps. I was just thinking the Super Saiyan 1 aura has a bit of inconsistency here and there, but Super Saiyan 2s never have a white aura, even when just standing around.

And they've never not had lightning, several panels being the exception. Point is, lightning is there in every use of SSJ2.

What's up with the option of


Kid Gohan = Teen Gohan except Kid Gohan has a rage boost and Teen Gohan doesn't.

Is that a possibility here?

Good if you believe in the Enraged SSJ2 theory.

Dosn't make a whole lot of sense considering Vegeta claimed that Teen Gohan SSJ got weaker. The only potential for a rage boost would be in SSJ2 imo.

Daizenshuu stated something like this.

So why Vegeta did not know how strong Gohan ( Enranged ) would be if Enranged is his SSJ2?

I never said enraged is Gohan's Super Saiyan 2. Haven't you already seen my explanation in the past?

So you believe in an Enranged Boost?

Full color generally doesn't apply the yellow on Super Saiyan 1, Trunks vs. Future Cell and a few panels of Vegeta in the Cell Games being the exception (as well as the Yakon vs. Goku scene and SSJ Gotenks, though I'm less sure of the latter). It's clear the artists who colored the manga construed Gohan as a super saiyan 1 in both the ship and the time he flipped his lid at Lord Spopovich.

Does the color in the full color manga have any more connection to Toriyama than something you can find on deviantart?
