Super Saiyan 2 is a transformation from Dragon Ball Z, most famously reached by Gohan during the Cell Saga when his hidden power erupts in battle. The form is marked by sharper, more upright hair, crackling blue-white lightning around the body and a surge of raw energy far beyond the original Super Saiyan. Fans have reused its distinctive power-up sound for years in AMVs, gaming montages and reaction videos, where the rising charge instantly signals that a character has broken through a limit.
