Default Re: Concerning Goku's "power-up" against the Ginyu Force in Hell

I think that the reason why Goku "powered up" was to prepare to fight Cell. In other words, he didn't feel like "battling" the Ginyu Force and he was more worried to fight Cell.

Well, the reason is actually rather obvious. Toei, after releasing the teaser for the episode in question, realized that it would be better off to have Gokuu reveal his ability to transform to Paikuhan during their fight. As such, after the teaser was released, but before the actual episode was, Toei had their animators go back and re-color Gokuu's hair so that it appears that he's just in a powered up version of his Ssj state.

Or even if he's not fighting at all. He just may as well go around like that.

So, it doesn't matter who he was facing.
I didn't really understand wtf you just said, but maybe Ican summarize/translate.

"SS doesn't drain energy so Goku can use SS whenever he wants, at least according to those guys who believe it doesn't drain energy" if that's the case then great...Just, you know, great...

So it still stays he was just the False black saiyan
1. There was a preview to a single episode, seriously???
2. False SS is also an excellent explanation, just didn't think it would work too well for everyone if I said it was.

sort of, but there are 2 dimensions to "reasons" of why something happened in DBZ or any other work of fiction. The first dimension is asking why the creators decided to do it, and that's what you're answering. I'm answering why the character did it, and explaining what happened within the DBZ universe.

Uh, he's talking specifically about an out of universe thing. The reason why Toei changed Goku's hair color in the fight.

I know, I specifically said that that was what he was talking about, I'm just saying that these things about TOEII are kinda obvious and most of the time useless.

How does them changing Goku transforming in the episode preview have any relevance to anything in-universe?

If that was responding to me, I NEVER said anything about the preview, I NEVER even SAW this preview people speek of, and I never said he was talking about anything in-universe.

All I said is he's answering with Dimension 1 and I'm answering with Dimension 2, I never said anything about the preview other than "there's a preview?" I wasn't really responding to the specific stuff he was saying, I was just saying how so many people are answering with Dimension 1 its getting stupid.

Because Ginyu force became stronger in Hell. Obliously they train with Freeza and King Cold.

They trained to the level where they could face a Super Saiyan? I highly doubt it.

And JC, I know it was Super Saiyan because it shows it in the mutha-fukken episode preview =/
