** When the pair stop on Arlia, hoping to sell the planet, they wind up getting roped into a sequence of events that have them overthrowing the tyrant ruler of the planet. In the end, both Nappa and Vegeta are hailed as heroes before departing the planet. In the dub, at least, Nappa seems pleased with the idea of being a hero before Vegeta begins to talk down the notion, prompting Nappa to change his mind on the matter.

* ShapeshiftingExcludesClothing: Naurally, growing to the size of a castle means Saiyans will end up losing any clothes they were wearing at the time. Fortunately the ones in Freeza's service all wear uniforms that can expand indefinitely.



** Super Saiyan Grade 3 is noted to be this, as while it boosts the user's power even more than Grade 2, it has the drawbacks of more ki consumption, less speed and less stamina meaning that unless you're already faster than you're opponent, you're just a big target, which at that point there's no reason to use it.

Understandably it was never used again once Super Saiyan 2 was introduced.



* GoldenSuperMode: The TropeCodifier, famous for giving the user glowing golden hair and a gold BattleAura. Interestingly, several transformations beyond regular Super Saiyan use different colors entirely: [[Anime/DragonBallGT Super Saiyan 4]] and [[Anime/DragonBallZBattleOfGods Super Saiyan God]] are red, [[Anime/DragonBallZResurrectionF Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan]] is blue (to the point where it was officially shortened to "Super Saiyan Blue" after everyone realized what a mouthful the original name was), and the [[Anime/DragonBallSuperBroly Legendary Super Saiyan is green]].

Not to mention Goku and Vegeta acquiring even higher forms that turn their hair silver and purple respectively, or Goku Black's hair turning pink when he turns Super Saiyan.



* LightningBruiser: With the exception of [[MightyGlacier Grade 3]], any user of Super saiyan becomes incredibly fast and hit exceptionally hard, and Super Saiyan 2 and 3 both have lightning surround the user.
* LogicalWeakness: Super Saiyan is a conscious transformation to maintain, and does not give the user any form of immunity outside of physical toughness (in fact, Goku turning Super Saiyan only made the strain on his heart ''worse'', and Baby's possession of Saiyans became ''easier'' when they transformed), so anything that can dull the senses, invades the body or put them to sleep counteracts any benefit of the form.

* MySuitIsAlsoSuper: For some reason turning Super Saiyan 4 comes with MagicPants. Goku and Vegeta both turned into Great Apes before settling into the form and the clothes they lost from the initial transformation were restored, sans their upper body-wear.



** Super Saiyan 4 sounds like it'd be a further evolution of Super Saiyan 3, but in reality, it has little to do with three, or any of the previous forms. It is, however, stronger than previous forms as indicated by its name.

* UniquenessDecay: As Vegeta points out in-universe, Super Saiyans have become drastically more common since the Namek Saga onwards in drastic contrast to how it was all but a myth before Goku achieved it. Come media and Dragon Ball's resurgence with Super. Super Saiyan is so commonly given to just about every Saiyan to a point that Gotenks in ''Fighter Z'' says its ''more'' surprising if they can't obtain the form.
