Earlier in the series, Goku trained Gohan to become a Super Saiyan, knowing that as a Super Saiyan, the dormant power that Gohan harbored was the only chance that Earth had against Cell.
Upon the awakening of his dormant power through his fierce rage, Gohan further transformed from his regular Super Saiyan form, to achieve a true ascended form called Super Saiyan 2. It is uncertain how this transformation is achieved, even though it is suggested that it was initially intended as a new Super Saiyan form of Gohan's.
As the series continued, Goku and Vegeta later achieved this transformation through training, suggesting that any Super Saiyan was able to achieve it if they were skilled enough to ascend. This form possesses the same basic characteristic of the regular Super Saiyan, with golden yellow hair, and green eyes. Only slight differences are noted from the regular Super Saiyan form, such as a slight growth in muscle mass. Other physical changes include longer, finer, more upright-standing hair. The behavioral effects are the same as an un-mastered Super Saiyan and every physical color change remains the same as in Super Saiyan.
The Saiyan's abilities increase substantially from their regular Super Saiyan form, resulting in a wider aura that blazes violently rather than being flame-like. The aura is also now accompanied by blueish-white bolts of electricity.
