In the Super Saiyan God form, he gains a divine red aura and vastly increased power, allowing him to fight on a godly level. He serves as a major ally and protector of Earth, while also driving much of the series’ rivalry, action, and character development through his pride, discipline, and relentless pursuit of strength.
