Near the end of the saga when Gohan finally unlocks his rage and defeats perfect cell. His hair gets longer and spikier. What is that, especially in comparison to Vegeta's super saiyanness post hyperbole time chamber, AND in comparison to Trunks' super saiyanness post Vegeta's loss with perfect cell.

Gohans Hidden potential, iirc. It was just Gohans power, it wasnt actually a form.

Yeah it was just something specific to gohan wasn't it. I don't think attributing numbers to super saiyanism was a thing yet.

At the time, Goku basically surmised that it was Gohan's own potential and ultimately something only he could do to go beyond Super Saiyan and the true "next level" of power, something that Vegeta and Trunks were trying and failing to do.

Only after the manga continued and didn't end at the Cell Saga did they more or less explain it away as a proper "2" that any committed enough Saiyan could reach.

Gohan's hidden potential was then made into what people typically call "Mystic Gohan".

So basically the same thing as regular super saiyan with goku back in the freeza saga, stated that it's a legend only one can achieve and been thousands of years, but then later became like, every saiyan's birth right.

Ugh yeah I remember mystic gohan. Ugh buu saga. Truly the star wars 6 of the db franchise.

Did you guys know Mystic Gohan was a fan made name? I don't even think the games acknowledge that label LMAO.

Now that you mention it I do recall that term before, but wasn't that for Vegeta and/or Trunks?

It might have been, I'm not sure.
