I have not included all the different levels of forms (like ascended, full power etc) because this has a limit of 12 and I think I counted 20 forms in total.

Before I started drawing Goku, I had been tracing him for a while, and here are some of those traces. (Ft. Vegeta)

I don’t understand people who say “Vegeta should’ve gotten ssj2 after Cell killed Trunks”

Like legitimately

Do you know how fucking lame that would’ve made ssj2 look? We have years and years of hindsight to see just how cool and how much of an upgrade ssj2 was, but that’s ONLY because Gohan was the only one to unlock it in the Cell saga. If Vegeta got ssj2 like, 5 episodes after Gohan, it would’ve thrown literally ALL of Gohan’s development and Goku’s foreshadowing in the trash. Ssj2 is supposed to be unique to Gohan, in the same way ssj was unique to Goku. Sure, other people achieved it in later arcs, but the arc that had the first transformation and the person involved in said transformation will always be the one associated with the form.

To have two characters achieve the same fabled form in the same arc would be wildly anticlimactic. It’s like saying Gohan should’ve gone SSJ on Namek after Piccolo got shot and after Krillin died. Like ya, that could’ve been something that happened, and it makes sense since Piccolo and Krillin protected and helped raise him, but that would literally destroy all the buildup Toriyama had for SSJ.

And then there are the people that say Vegeta “deserved” ssj2

NO HE DID NOT.

He was an asshole who nearly got everyone killed for his own pride up until the cell games😭. He doesn’t just randomly deserve to get a power up because he decided to finally care about his son as he dies. Now, did he deserve to do some damage to Cell? Absolutely, especially because he acknowledged the fact that he had been ignoring Trunks until he died, and apologized to Gohan for getting his arm hurt. And that’s why his final blow to Cell giving Gohan an opening to kill him is a perfectly fine conclusion. But Vegeta did not deserve to get ssj2. This isn’t buu saga or super Vegeta we’re talking about. He was a complete and utter jerk until Goku and Trunks died.

(I also saw ppl get mad at Krillin for yelling at Vegeta for attacking cell. Which is odd because that’s a huge trope subversion for dragon ball. Usually the characters cheer another character on after a rage boost and expect them to win. But Krillin knew exactly how strong Cell was and he knew whatever Vegeta tried to do would only make it worse for everyone else. WHICH IT DID BTW. IT WAS VEGETA’S FAULT GOHAN’S ARM GOT FUCKED)

Ok rant over bye
