Have you heard of the “Super Saiyan 3.5” transformation yet? If not, it’s perfectly normal because Super Saiyan 3.5 is not an officially recognized form, nor is it featured directly in the manga or anime Dragon Ball Z. However, this term still attracts the attention of many fans around the world of Dragon Ball.
Super Saiyan 3.5: A Fan Concept in the Dragon Ball Community
Super Saiyan 3.5 is a temporary transformation that exists between Super Saiyan 3 and Super Saiyan 4, newly established in Dragon Ball Daima. It’s important to note that “Super Saiyan 3.5” is not an official term used by creator Akira Toriyama or the anime production team. Instead, it is a way for fans to creatively express and categorize the various power levels that Goku exhibits in high-stakes battles.
In other words, this idea is a product of fan art that provides us with a striking image of the Super Saiyan 4 transformation, showing Goku in an even deeper state of power in his original form to unleash his full potential.
The transformation we’re discussing is a creation of the renowned fan artist @DBSKAKERU1. He is recognized on social media for his creativity in reimagining characters from Dragon Ball and other potential characters that might appear in the future.
Characteristics of Super Saiyan 3.5
Super Saiyan 3.5 is used by fans to describe moments when Goku reaches new heights of power in the Super Saiyan 3 transformation, showcasing a level of energy and speed that surpasses the typical Super Saiyan 3 form, yet has not quite reached the limits of Super Saiyan 4.
Some fans cite Goku’s performance during his battle against Kid Buu in Dragon Ball Z as a classic example of this transformation. When Goku gathered all of his energy and determination, he displayed a force far beyond the norm, while still maintaining the appearance of Super Saiyan 3 with his long golden hair and unique features.
In the Super Saiyan 3.5 state, Goku is also depicted with a tail, a distinctive characteristic of SSJ4, but unlike that form, the tail is golden in color. His eyes do not turn green as they do in previous versions of Super Saiyan, but instead, they retain the color of the original enemy, a vital aspect of the transformation process in Dragon Ball GT, which is now celebrated in Daima.
