What's the point of SSj's grade forms? dawg

 

[Tapion]

To increase the power of its users.

 

[SSJ2]

Gr2 increases power and speed.

Goku and Vegeta went on and on about how they needed to ascend past Super Saiyan, so that's what the point was.

 

[Jerk Store]

Give them bigger sexier muscl-I mean a build up to the SSJ2 reveal!

 

[Let's Go Fearless!]

lol i know that, i should have make my question clear.

Why Toriyama introduced these shitty form if they're just failure?

 

[Goku9001]

They were just a terrible way of surpassing the limitations of an untrained Super Saiyan and MSSJ training does it much more effectively.

SSJG2 was useful, but I believe that it lost its purpose after MSSJ was revealed and so, didn't result in any boosts of power after MSSJ was revealed.

 

[Male]

To showcase that the forms were superior to ssj (untrained) form in a sense, but were limited as they had flaws ie. stamina strain, slower speed(ssjg3) etc. Vegeta had the right idea to increase the power of the ssj form as well as the speed, but he still had stamina strain in ssjg2 So the grade forms were not viable to continue training in. mssj is ssj but mastered so there is little to no strain on the user when they are in the form and the fighter can get stronger & increase speed as well lol

 

[SSJ2]

Also to hype up SSJ2 as being the correct way to ascend past Super Saiyan.

 

[Papasmurf]

To fill up Toriyama's very limited memory bank until he inevitably forgot everything once he no longer had the obligation to write the manga

 

[Let's Go Fearless!]

And also being a buff makes you slower which contradicts Freeza's speed when he was at his 100%.

 

[Fantastische Hure]

Freeza's 100% was his 100% normal power, not a forced transformation.

 

[Papasmurf]

Plus, Roshi (FnF) loses no speed when he's buff

 

[Let's Go Fearless!]

Freeza's 100% was his 100% normal power, not a forced transformation.

But his power made him buff.

 

[SSJ2]

Freeza's 100% was his 100% normal power, not a forced transformation.

But his power made him buff.

Doesn't look like a huge difference, but that's what it is.

A visual aid & simplified explanation of the advantages & drawbacks of transformations in general & as well as understanding how to manage energy consumption.

What's the point of SSj's grade forms? dawg

What's the point of your stupid gifs that fuck up my computer's speed?

Because your stupid internet speed is fucked up.

 

[xmysticgohanx]

SSJG2 is superior to regular SSJ. Only mastered SSJ would beat it and that's by not losing until the G2 user runs out of stamina

 

[Jerk Store]

The point is to kill time between poppin' bitches!

 

[Boo Brand Milk]

In order to foreshadow an asspull.
