In Dragonball Super Akira Toriyama and Toyotaro really indulged themselves when it came to power-ups. In fact, the duo tirelessly envisioned new transformations to further improve Goku and Vegeta to help them face the threats that emerged in the sequel.
On the occasion of the release of the film “Dragon Ball Z: The Resurrection of F“Toriyama used the big screen to introduce the public to Super Saiyan Blue, an evolved form of the SSJ god. This form will then be improved upon as the anime continues Tournament of Power Saga where Goku unlocks an additional power-up to face Jiren, the divine technology of Ultra Instinct.
In an excerpt from the interview with the two authors, only an excerpt of which is available in Volume 1 of the manga, while the rest is available on the official website, Toyotaro asked Toriyama why the SSJ Blue had hair dyed blue. Sensei’s answer here follows:
“In DBZ: The Battle of the Gods they were red, so I thought blue would be good for “Resurrection of F”. That’s all. I had actually considered making them white, but they wouldn’t be tuned to the closest enemy. Let’s say I thought about saving it for another occasion. “
Today we all know that “this next chance” was nothing more than the clash with Jiren, in which the famous hero actually unleashed a transformation that turned his hair silver white. And do you, on the other hand, know these words? Let us know with a comment below.
