I'm pretty sure it goes to Super Saiyan 2 God next, then Super Saiyan 2 God Super Saiyan, then Super Saiyan 2 God Super Saiyan 2 and so on.

You forgot Broli's appearance as the Legendary Super Saiyan God Legendary Super Saiyan.

Why do you think he has green hair?

I think SSG is just an additional boost, not part of the SS line, with SSGSS being using both at once. Next should be SSGSS2

Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan Kaioken.

Goku stacks as many power up moves as he can to fight the next bad guy.

To Tien's credit, it's not his fault his allies totally blew the opportunity he nearly killed himself to create for entirely selfish reasons. Multiple times.

I kind of hope they add in a scene somewhere of him going "what the actual fuck" afterwards.

Poor guy. He and Piccolo.

The last time either of them do something badass and it amounts to jack shit.

For all that Goku and Vegeta save the universe it's often from problems they directly caused.

I mean. Skipping ahead to the Buu Saga, that was kinda their fault with their insistence on that rematch.

I mean, Goku could have just gone Super Saiyan 3, knocked Vegeta out, then Buu wouldn't have gotten the energy to wake up.

There. Problem solved.

Hell, they could have just blown the fuck out of Babadi's ship and done their rematch without endangering all of reality.

That's what retcons will do. Originally, Goku planned to do that with Super Saiyan 2 to Vegeta's Super Saiyan 1 (directly saying "I'll end this quickly, at full power" while transforming into 2) but Vegeta had Super Saiyan 2 as well so that didn't work.

After Super Saiyan 3 was retconned in Goku went from trying his full power and just being unable to defeat Vegeta to holding back for no given reason.

They could just say Goku was afraid of burning himself out using three (he seemed aware of it's taxing nature and might have thought it was risky to use in the real world).

Oh, they can have him trying to use it during the fight, but Vegeta keeps interrupting him each time.

Some would say that's way too smart for Goku, but he just proved recently that he can think about things like this.

They could have Goku invent Super Saiyan 3 on the spot due to 1 and 2 not impressing Buu. Achievements in Ignorance.

[up][up] the problem is that it's hard to justify not using it against Vegeta if he's going to use it against Boo.

[up] To me, that would be an Ass Pull. Okay it already was due to the problems with Goku saying he was absolutely no stronger than Vegeta but it would have been more obvious about it. Using the seven years of training to justify it works a bit better, I think.

Maybe if he had been working on it for seven years and failing, and only managing to pull it off against Boo because it was a do-or-die moment that pushed him over, that would work without contradicting what comes before.

I love those pulp covers.

Cru, why did you have to use the word "gains"? Now I'm imagining Goku and Gohan broing out in the gym.

Actually, that does work better. He only finally pushes through and pulls it off in that moment when it really matters.

It also means that because it's new, he doesn't know its limits yet.
