Legendary Super Saiyan 3[1] (伝説の超サイヤ人スリー Densetsu no Sūpā Saiya-jin Surī) is an extremely rare and powerful transformation. It is a continuation of the Legendary Super Saiyan transformation.[2] It is normally referred to only as Super Saiyan 3, but possesses the characteristics of the Legendary Super Saiyan form.

In this form, the user can be seen as the symbol of a true Super Saiyan.[1]

Appearance[]

The Legendary Super Saiyan 3 transformation shares characteristics with previous Super Saiyan forms. Like the Legendary Super Saiyan form, this form gives the user extreme muscles, height, pupilless eyes, and paler skin color. Similar to the regular Super Saiyan 3 transformation, the hair grows to an extremely long length and the eyebrow-ridges become hairless and very pronounced. The hair color remains similar to that of a Legendary Super Saiyan in some depictions, while it is similar to that of a normal Super Saiyan 3 in other appearances.

Usage and power[]

The Legendary Super Saiyan 3 transformation has only been used in video games. Broly has achieved this form in Dragon Ball Z: Dragon Battlers, the Raging Blast series, and Dragon Ball Heroes. The term Legendary Super Saiyan 3 is only used by Goku during a promotional trailer for Dragon Ball: Raging Blast, and in almost all the video games that it has appeared in, the state is just referred to as Super Saiyan 3. According to his bio in Raging Blast and Raging Blast 2, Broly achieved the Legendary Super Saiyan 3 transformation due to a huge Saiyan Power boost that he received from being blasted into the Sun at the end of Dragon Ball Z: Broly - Second Coming.

Super Saiyan 3 King of Destruction Broly

The form appears as a transformation for Broly in Dragon Ball Heroes, added in the game's eighth mission. His King of Destruction variant also uses the transformation.

In Dragon Ball Fusions, it appears under the name Legendary Super Saiyan 3 as a separate playable form for Broly that can be used. LSSJ3 Broly is classified as an S-Rank fighter.

In the animated promo of Dragon Battlers that showcased both Super Saiyan 3 Broly and Super Saiyan 3 Vegeta, Super Saiyan 3 Broly is shown to have defeated Super Saiyan 3 Goku, and even when Vegeta shows up in his Super Saiyan 3 transformation, Broly simply powers up and confidently challenges them both. Promotional material for one boss mission in Dragon Ball Heroes references Super Saiyan 3 Broly as being stronger than Full Power Frieza, Hatchiyack, Super Perfect Cell and Super Buu (Gohan absorbed). In the JM7 opening, when Beat, Note, and Super Saiyan 4 Goku and Vegeta arrive just prior to Black Smoke Shenron turning Broly into a Super Saiyan 4, Legendary Super Saiyan 3 Broly was seen smirking at their presence, implying he might be capable of handling them in that form before being transformed, though it may simply be another example of Broly's insanity and/or Saiyan's natural born love of fighting.

In Super Dragon Ball Heroes: World Mission, Legendary Super Saiyan 3 Broly appears as a boss during the chapter "Legendary Super Saiyan Awakened!" in Chapter 3. Broly's Super Saiyan 3 and King of Destruction Super Saiyan 3 forms are playable via Custom cards created through Card Creation.

Enhancements[]

The Legendary Super Saiyan 3 transformation can also be further enhanced, specifically with the Manipulation Sorcery ability used by Babidi which turns Broly into a King of Destruction. In Dragon Ball Heroes, aside from the regular abilities of Legendary Super Saiyan 3, King of Destruction Broly is able to use Mind Break, a variant of Manipulation Sorcery that allows him to place people under Babidi's control without Babidi himself needing to be present.

Trivia[]

  • Dragon Ball Fusions is the only game to refer to the form as "Legendary Super Saiyan 3"; the form is otherwise referred to as just "Super Saiyan 3". It was, however, referred to as Legendary Super Saiyan 3 by Goku in the Japanese debut trailer for the form in Dragon Ball: Raging Blast and its appearance is noticeably different from any other Super Saiyan 3.
  • In the English dub of Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods, upon transforming into Super Saiyan 3 Goku refers to the form as "The legendary Super Saiyan 3".
  • Broly's God Broly form shares a similar appearance to his Legendary Super Saiyan 3 form, both having long green hair, however God Broly possess three distinctive long bangs and the presence of eyebrows.
