Dragon Ball: 10 Transformations With The Biggest Drawbacks, Ranked
www.cbr.com/dragon-ball-transf…
10.Zarbon’s Second Form Takes The Elegant Fighter From Beauty To Beast.
Frieza causes plenty of devastation on Namek, but before he gets his own hands dirty, he staffs out his henchmen, Dodoria and Zarbon. Zarbon has a rather suave and together appearance, but this veneer is shattered when hetransforms into his second form. Zarbon becomes substantially stronger, but he loses agility and becomes a reprehensible monster. It’s a tough trade, especially for someone like Zarbon, who fixates on appearances.

9.Frieza’s Third Form Is An Ugly, Impractical Xenomorph Imitation.
It truly feels like a placeholder to prolong the fight, but Dragon Ball barely gives this transformation a chance, and so it feels forgettable and irrelevant in addition to impractical.

8.The Power Boost From The Majin Transformation Comes With Demonic Subservience.
This access to more power is enough to tempt Vegeta, but this strength is irrelevant if the character has no free will and is forced to do someone’s bidding. The problem with the Majin transformation is that it’s inconsistent in this area, and individuals like Vegeta still retain some awareness as a Majin. In contrast, others such as Spopovich and Yamu are considerably more brainwashed.

7.The Saiyan’s Great Ape Transformation Trades Precision For Power.
Saiyans would turn into their Great Ape form to ensure that they wage maximum destruction and the larger size, greater strength, and enhanced abilities are hard to ignore. Simultaneously, the average Great Ape becomes a wild animal that can’t control its strength. Saiyan royalty doesn’t have this issue, but for others, it’s a major caveat.

6.The Potara Earring Fusion Is Supposed To Be A Permanent Union.
Dragon Ball has embraced the fusion conceptand introduced several means to achieve such a transformation. The Potara Earring Fusion is described as a union that’s supposed to be permanent, unlike the fusion dance. This is a serious setback, but instances like Vegito’s fusion break once absorbed by Buu show that there are extenuating circumstances here.

5.The Demon Clan Transformation From The Black Water Mist Creates Lazy Vampires.
Black Water Mist victims seem marginally stronger, but more in a feral sense. They operate like vampires by biting their victims to spread the infection. It becomes a convoluted transformation, especially since former Demon Clan members, like Piccolo, resist it.

4.Ultra Super Saiyan Is A Bulky Insult To The Super Saiyan Name.
Future Trunks stumbles upon a new transitory stage between Super Saiyan and Super Saiyan 2 during their preparation against Cell. Ultra Super Saiyan, or Super Saiyan Third Grade, is more powerful than the regular form. Still, it comes with inefficient muscle mass that makes any Ultra Super Saiyan too slow to be effective. It’s a misleading transformation that becomes officially unnecessary once Super Saiyan 2 enters the picture.

3.Super Namekian Fusion Erases One Of The Party’s Personalities.
Piccolo initially goes through this ceremony with Nail and then later does the same with Kami. The newfound strength is incredible, but this fusion completely erases one of the personalities. At least the other fusions create an amalgamation out of both individuals.

2.Super Saiyan 3 Is So Strong That It Can Barely Be Used.
Super Saiyan 3 has a memorable look and intense strength, but it’s so dangerous that the body can only withstand it for a minimal time. This makes Super Saiyan 3 a lost cause, especially once stronger transformations with fewer restrictions follow it. It barely comes up anymore.

1.Kaio-Ken Blue Hurts The User’s Body More Than The Enemy.
This aggressively multiplies the user’s strength, but is advised for use with extreme caution due to how it can cripple the human body if pushed too far. Goku doesn’t only abuse the Kaio-Ken Attack, but it returns in Dragon Ball Super when he combines it with Super Saiyan Blue. Kaio-Ken Blue may provide a temporary solution, but it ravages Goku’s body and leaves him out of commission several days after the fight.
