Description Notes:
So, to start things off with this interpretation of the chart, most of the description is no longer on the deviation itself. The unfortunate truth is that this page became way, way too long because the DB franchise never stops adding transformations. There will inevitably be more Saiyan transformations on the horizon, too. They drive merchandise sales. 

Anyway, you can now find all the information in this Google Doc: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d…

As always, there's no need to ask about whether I will be including a form or why I haven't added any potential new transformations to the chart. This document will likely be kept up to date with at least acknowledging new forms as they're revealed. However, I will still be waiting for them to fully debut in the their respective media (anime, manga, games, whatever) before deciding what I'm doing with them in regards to the project.

-*-*Disclaimer*-*-
The series of submissions labeled under the title of DB Redux are part of a fan rewrite of the official series. Anything that you see in the art or description that varies from the original manga or anime sources is most likely intentional. While I appreciate that you are taking the time to look at my gallery and notice these differences, I do not require a comment on what needs "correcting" because it wasn't "originally like that". 

However, if you'd like to discuss these changes, or the project in general, you're welcome to join my DB Redux Discord server  for the community members, an early look at finished & WIP character art and links to full battle power lists.

Thank you, and please enjoy!

No, you don't need to be in Super Saiyan when you first achieve it, BUT you do need to have transformed into Super Saiyan at least once for the right triggers to be activated. So the earliest he could have becomes a SS4, if he still had a tail, would be the battle with Freeza.

Did you forget to make SS5's tail gray/silver? Or is it supposed to be brown? That would seem kinda weird seeing how all the fur is red for SS4...

but an interesting factor has been reveled to me...

if a sayain who can go super sayain and still has a tail...then the full moons comes out and turns into a golden ape, can they go ssj4 without having to acsend to ssj2 and 3?

take vegeta for example. bulma used the bluxswave to turn vegeta into an ape again and then went ssj4, and last time i check he could only acsend to lv 2 only.

Of course.

It isn't an actual Super Saiyan stage. Even in the official franchise's guides, it's been said to only be named "Super Saiyan 4" out of convenience and is actually something entirely different from previous transformations.

Mmm, I always saw Broly's LSSJ form as some sort of SSJ2 variation, rather than just an extreme measure of the mass-increasing power boosting seen in the ascended subforms (as well as in Freeza and Cell); just with green instead of sparks, and with plenty of mass gain and insane screaming and all that. After all, it was triggered by anger and a high power, rather than training on increasing power.

The-Devils-Corpse In reply to Eriorguez [2012-09-27 19:58:04 +0000 UTC]

Judging from Paragus' reaction, I doubt the LSS transformation we saw was the first one Broli ever underwent; so we have no idea what triggered it, he was just mad when we saw him use it. Anyway, Broli's Super Saiyan form was already stronger than everyone else, and Vegeta and Trunks were even using Grade 2 themselves. Had Broli's transformation actually be like SS2, our Heroes would have never won, even with a worn out Goku using everyone's powers to deliver a Toei Punch.

Blue-Uncia In reply to ??? [2012-09-27 07:49:43 +0000 UTC]

That's cool! A while ago I was actually working on a sheet to make sense of all the forms too, though I abandoned that project for now.

I ended up downgrading Super Saiyan 4 to an advanced state of Oozaru; one in which, in Goku and Vegeta's case, the user can throw Super Saiyan powers in the mix if they want. It was meant as a support form, to help the body cope with the stress that comes from Super Saiyan 3.

Otherwise, I just really don't see the Super Saiyan element in this form. XD

Of course, it also meant I had to change the name. Heh.

I like your version a lot too.

This is a very helpful description of the various states that a Saiyan can reach. I definitely like your description of the Super Saiyan 4. Just one thing: the Super Saiyan 4 can be reached when a Saiyan is both in his/her Super Saiyan state and has transformed into an Oozaru? I'm just trying to make sure I properly understand it because it's clear that you have put A LOT of time and planning into this and I want to fully understand it myself.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

The-Devils-Corpse In reply to Ph03n1x-Warr1or-Z [2012-09-27 05:01:29 +0000 UTC]

To reach the form, the Saiyan has to have kept their tail (or regrown it) and transformed into a Super Saiyan at least once before in their life, triggering the gene to make the form "active" in their DNA.

The form itself is highly spiritual, as it is all about balance and harmony, making it nearly impossible for ancient Saiyans to reach it. Though not always active, the Super Saiyan and Oozaru traits are within them, deep, deep down. There are 4 ways to attempt the transformation for the first time:

From their Base state: Requires the Saiyan to search deep within themselves via meditation and quell the rage and strain that their primal Oozaru and Super Saiyan power puts on them. This is very, very hard to do. Transformation will trigger their fur to gorw over the body and the changing of other traits like hair.

From their Super Saiyan state, it is easier to master Super Saiyan with the form active, but it's still difficult to reach their inner Oozaru and attempt to master that. Transformation will trigger their fur to gorw over the body and the changing of other traits like hair returning to base color and similar shape.

From Oozaru, it's REALLY hard to attempt to master Super Saiyan if you can't maintain your reasoning while in this form. But once you you do, attempting to master Super Saiyan is rather simple in comparison. It's very unlikely that anyone will reach it from this form though, as the monkey's natural rage will almost always trigger Super Saiyan if you don't have control. Transformations will trigger a change similar to the times the form is reached in GT; shrinking in size, loss of Oozaru features, etc...though no magic clothes.

From Super Oozaru, which, like the regular monkey, is next to impossible to master in this form if you don't have control over your own mind. If you retain your reasoning though, the transformation is very easy to make (like Goku in GT) since both form's traits are active and you don't have to look very hard to find them. Transformation is basically identical to the GT version, though without magic clothes.

Wow!! What an awesome, super-detailed explanation of the Super Saiyan 4! In fact, it makes too much sense for anyone to ignore it. If the Saiyan race were real, you would be over-qualified as a legitimate researcher of their race. Even Vegeta himself would be impressed with your skills.

And dang it, now I feel the need to practice drawing ssj's. xDD This will be a helpful reference though, heheh!!!

Also, dayum, super oozaru's must be totally OP. I bet it's takes a loooot of work for an individual to reach that level though.

DRAW MOAR SUPERZ! Seriously though, you're more used to seeing grade 2? Who draws grade 2? I almost exclusively see SS(grade 1) or Grade 3, just like I almost always only see SS or SS3 artwork and not SS2. The middle ground is usually ignored...except for Gohan at the Cell Games, because he's a fan favorite. I do like the False SS too, it's a shame they didn't incorporate it into the series after the movie, there were some prime opportunities with at least, well, everyone after Goku/Future Trunks/Vegeta.

YOU BET I WILL!!! (hopefully sometime soon)
Are you sure Toriyama doesn't usually draw grade 2? Cuz a lot of the ones on his artbook (This one: [link] I have one back at home) seem like they're grade 2. Maybe I'm wrong but seriously, judging from how their arms are drawn, I swear they are grade 2.
Haha, I'm kinda tempted to try incorporating false ss into my work now. *__*
And yeahh I agree. I guess they were so focused on the stereotypical ssj form(blonde hair, green eyes, blahblah) that they forgot about the false one. :/

LAMEEEE. (And yuck, romantic strolls, dx!! LOL) What a pansy-ass way of going super oozaru. I'd rather see them training their asses off and turning into one after they reach a certain level. >:3

The-Devils-Corpse In reply to hg-project [2012-09-28 03:48:51 +0000 UTC]

Naw, Grade 2 barely lasted like a volume. Remember Goku said that the regular state is best for fighting, because the graded forms drain ki too fast and grade 3 specifically has crazy speed loss. The muscles may look like Grade 2 to you thanks Mr. Brid Moutain's artistic evolution, but they are definitely regular Super Saiyans in almost all the artwork, though there are a couple of Grade 2 pieces in there from while it was the next "most awesome thing since sliced bread" I think.

That's why I get to have fun. I'm going to enjoy using these things in ways the franchise didn't, like having Gohan turn False SS before regular SS and having him snap at Goku in the RoSaT.

Seriously, Super Oozaru generally isn't going to be something you train for or be all that difficult to achieve. So long as you're a Super Saiyan and still have a tail, it's more than likely just going to happen after you transform (Goku in GT)...unless you can actually control yourself as an Oozaru, then you'll have to trigger it yourself (Vegeta in GT) lol

Maphisto86 In reply to ??? [2012-09-27 02:29:17 +0000 UTC]

Like the overall thought process behind this Super Saiyan hierarchy. Nice job! The subtraction of Broli's "LSSj" form seems to be something of an aesthetic difference if you just swapped that form for one of the bulkier ones. Is Son Goku and Gohan's "Full Powered Super Saiyan" state still applicable to your fan redux? I loved that idea in the original story and it shows how great a fighting strategist Son Goku is. Yet really it was less a separate form in itself then a well trained SSj grade 1.

The-Devils-Corpse In reply to Maphisto86 [2012-09-27 02:48:24 +0000 UTC]

That's all it is really. I'm glad someone understands that too, as there would be no reason for even the Broli fanboys to rant about how I've ruined him or anything. All of the "Legendary" Super Saiyan's special properties are still in tact, they are just unique to Broli himself and not some stupid form that served no purpose but to confuse a fanbase. lol The change is nothing more than a slight aesthetic shift; no green hair tint (which they already did in movie 10) and he'll retain his pupils most of the time. ...eh, and while I don't really want to shrink him, maybe not quite as tall since none of the others gain height with those forms.

Yeah, but it's not a transformation of any sort. He just got used to SS and its side-effects, so it doesn't belong on the sheet. It's still there though: [link] [link]

It's based off official statements in guidebooks saying that the form was only named level 4 out of convince and that it's okay to think that it is something else entirely. I just made the separation clear, along with some tweaks... ^^
