This is just a basic poll to see which form you guys think they were using.

In my opinion, I see them using regular Super Saiyan, at least in the manga. In the anime, they're definitely using Grade 2.

As you can in the pictures, Vegeta's muscle mass at the Cell Games is nowhere near what it is while battling Semi-Perfect Cell. I know the aura argument is rather weak, but the auras don't match up either. Since I don't think Vegeta used Grade 2, there'd be no reason for Trunks to use it either.

Yeah his muscles are much smaller. Also he seems to get...shinier... in ASSj while his clothes are fully black in SSj (And they are at the Cell games)

I always believed they were just super saiyan. I assumed they mastered it like goku and gohan and saw no need to use any higher level transformation.

His hair kind of looks more wild like ASSj though.

I agree as well. Apologies, I genuinely thought they were ASSJ until I reread Volume 18 and saw the scans

neither trunks nor vegeta have the grade form muscle mass, but vegeta has the hair in some panels, and not in others. trunks wild hair can simply be attributed to how long his hair is, and because it's not naturally spiky, unlike every other saiyan who ever transformed. without the muscle mass, though, the hair is irrelevant, though. they are definitely ssj.

They were SSJ. Look at their bodies.

Well because they thought maybe it was useless due to that they would be no match for Cell and didn't want to waste their power OR they thought they were too slow to fight him.

It kinda looks like the muscles only look bigger in the first panels cos of that shine, it makes them look more detailed.

I've always thought from a Manga standpoint that they were just SS. And when I was able to get my Manga reading in, it really helped with questions like these.

They look the biggest in the first panel, yeah, but they're definitely still huge in the ensuing battle.

They probably figured Goku's way was the best, although I doubt Vegeta would've admitted it outright.

This wasn't directed at you. I just wanted to get this out there to hopefully prevent future misconceptions. :p

Yeah, in a couple panels, although the evidence is overwhelming for him not being in Grade 2.

Why would they use that form when they just understood that it's flawed?

I don't think the form itself is "flawed" in the way USSj was, just that it took TOO much energy to use in a fight that would last long.

a flawed form can still be useful when desperate. i think, if gohan hadn't transformed when he did, either vegeta, or more likely trunks, would have resorted to a grade form to hold of the cell kids very quickly.
