Well, I said I'd be shocked if this made the list. And here I am, rather shocked. Though I will accept the logic of "The fact that it sucks makes it distinct and unique which is actually a positive." And I do agree that it actually looks pretty baller, which is literally 90% of this video.
My Tumblr. Currently side-by-side liveblogging Digimon Adventure, sub vs dub.Hey, what's the point of giving a character a visual overhaul if it doesn't make them look cooler?
...seriously, why is (what I assume that's what it means) genital waxing referred to as "going full Brazilian?"
Seriously, Kaiser admitted that a Falconer song is good, I find it rather sus.

In all seriousness he has admitted some of them are good, he just doesn't like most of them. I fundamentally disagree with him, but I think he also liked Vegeta's super saiyan theme (I think, don't quote me on that...).
You can only write so much in your forum signature. It's not fair that I want to write a piece of writing yet it will cut me off in the midApparently it's called a "Brazilian" wax because Brazilian beaches became famous in the 70's for the presence of women in string/thong bikinis.

It is synthesized to Hell and back.
And, honestly, I think only SSJ 3's theme and Cell's theme actually makes it work.
I went to listen to the original Final Flash song after the Abridged episode and hoo boy, is that thing painful to listen to.
And I like synth.
yea, the S Sj 3 theme is the standout track for a reason in the American score. It makes the synth work.
A lazy millennial who's good at what he does.So... SSJ1,2 and 4, Ultra Instinct, and Freeza and Cell forms makes six, which feels like a plausible way to finish off the list.
And there's a clear hierarchy here: UI, SSJ2 and SSJ4 < Freeza, Cell and SSJ1. I couldn't tell you the exactly order between those tiers, but they are two clear tiers. I guess I'd say UI< SSJ2< SSJ4< Freeza < Cell < SSJ1, but who knows.

It hasn't yet stopped being significant, you mean. Super's still going, after all.
Ultra Instinct has appeared in one arc where it was introduced, a second arc where Goku acquired it, and a third arc where Goku mastered it. And that third arc was the very most recent arc of the series which literally just wrapped up. So, yeah, Ultra Instinct never once stopped being significant during the parts of the story that were dedicated to Goku learning and mastering Ultra Instinct, but we'll see what happens over the next few storylines. It's a bit premature right now to try and state that the form will not succumb to So Last Season eventually.

My Tumblr. Currently side-by-side liveblogging Digimon Adventure, sub vs dub.Sort of: it was still the formed Goku and Gohan used to fight Cell before the latter busted out 2.
You can argue it only cemented its status as So Last Season in the Buu Saga.
Even in the Buu arc, it saw usage. The first form of Super Saiyan cemented its place in Dragon Ball history by becoming the base battle form that Goku, Vegeta, Gohan, Goten, Trunks, and their various fusions bring to a given party.
While it has long been surpassed by a wide variety of different forms each with their own innate specialness, characters still frequently use Super Saiyan 1. Even in Super, we still get dramatic scenes dedicated to teaching characters to achieve this form for the very first time. It may not be the flashiest dress at the party, but it's comfortable and easy to wear and it goes with anything.
Super Saiyan 1 has long been surpassed, and yet remains an ever-present staple of the series while all the other forms take turns getting in their fifteen minutes of fame.

My Tumblr. Currently side-by-side liveblogging Digimon Adventure, sub vs dub.Even the Legendary Super Saiyan form is literally just "Super Saiyan 1, but Broly". Especially in the Super Broly form, where that is literally all it is. Broly ascending to Super Saiyan was a climactic moment in the film that kicked things over into the desperate third act.
It is usually a big deal whenever any character hits Super Saiyan 1 for the first time.

My Tumblr. Currently side-by-side liveblogging Digimon Adventure, sub vs dub.Super Saiyan 1 is absolutely the top of the list. They don't try to be subversive for the sake of being subversive and the OG Super Saiyan is the benchmark from which the rest were formed.
So its really a matter of what's going to be 6-2.
Super Saiyan is why Super Saiyan Blue is so disappointing. It has none of the gravitas associated with the form, and is blatantly derivative of the former. Even SSJ 2 has more visually striking differences and much more story significance.

A lazy millennial who's good at what he does.As far as Anime is concerned? Absolutely. It's been parodied enough. Its the codifier for Golden Super Mode for a reason.
To the point where it's directly tributed in another widely popular franchise as the main character's primary transformation.

Speaking as a Brazilian, I really wanna know just WTF going "full Brazilian" even means and how it even became an actual idiom.
