... The only positive is that I can see is Arc System Works making him fun to fight against or use in Extreme Butoden, especially if they make him and Golden Frieza get Unlimited forms like BlazBlue folks.

I guess the potential of maybe being fun in a game eventually is the only plus for a lot of Dragon Ball, even Toriyama's handiwork.

Am I reading this right or is it actually called Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan?

I don't hate this new form.

It's Toriyama, he pulls new transformations out of nowhere all the time to give the heroes something new and powerful.

But the Blue, it looks like someone used Colour Mode on photoshop.

Super Saiyan God I find to be somewhat redundant considering Goku's power is already godly.

From other sources, they explained it as the new SS look that have changed because Goku spoiler[and Vegeta] had acquired the power of SSGod.

So, basically, it is the same old golden regular Super Saiyan. But turned blue, because they are a "god" now, power-wise.

And I don't remember too well, but another source also said that from Goku's training with Beerus, he has come to a conclusion to concentrate on training up his normal state more, instead of acquiring new transformations, as the Super Saiyan forms are only some kind of power-ups. That way he'll be already powerful and don't need to power-up too much (hence spending too much energy) into SS2 and beyond.

It's not given a proper-noun type of name in the film itself. The big splash in the upper right / down the right side here describes it the same way Goku does in the film, which is simply as "Super Saiyan with the power of Super Saiyan God".

EDIT: Oh, I see the blurb on the left does imply a name, but the full sentence is cut off.

Goku vs. Kaguya of Naruto is a fight I'd like to see.

SSGSS waw...the names are getting very creative. Also, since apparently there is a new hair colour every movie now - I want green hair in the next film!

At least ss4 in GT was creative. Toriyama isn't even trying in character designs.

Well, if Frieza's new form was more of a color swap, then I can't be too surprised when it is the same for Goku.
