Information:in-universe, is the mastered state of the ordinary Super Saiyan form,which it replaces once it is attained.|The form has alternatively been referred to as Super Saiyan Fourth Grade/Super Saiyan Stage 4 on occasion and also Super Saiyan beyond Super Saiyan.

The form is no different inherently to the ordinary Super Saiyan except the hair becoming more detailed. The reduction in the emotional and physical strain of both attaining and maintaining the state mean that the user often appears more relaxed, with eyes and facial features becoming softened and even cheerful. Their aura alters somewhat,radiating energy in a smoother, slower pattern. As it is still essentially the first grade of Super Saiyan,the general traits all remain the same. In the anime, the user's hair is often portrayed as yellowish white, returning to a more yellow-gold tone when the user powers up.

By conditioning themselves to remain transformed for extended periods of time,the Super Saiyan can desensitize themselves to the negative effects of the transformation. Their wild emotions are kept in check allowing them to stay more focused,which results in a more strategic fighting style and pattern of thinking and passive ki consumption is reduced to negligible amounts. This energy conserving methodology allows them to devote their critical energy to other necessary tasks during combat whilst spending the duration of their time in a relaxed state or simply carrying out normal everyday tasks.

By mastering the transformation, the Super Saiyan is able to retain transformation almost subconsciously,allowing them to transform seemingly indefinitely. In the anime they are even shown able to sleep in this state peacefully,which is shown to radiate a positive feel to the environment as even wildlife is attracted to them. In requiring less ki to contribute to transform or even maintaining this state itself the maximum amount of ki can thus be focused into attacks and stamina use, with no adverse effects present. Once this state was mastered,Goku was able to keep up with Perfect Cell, something which Vegeta and Future Trunks could not do in their Super Saiyan Second and Third Grades. Vegeta notes the incredible side effects of the transformation by stating that feeling Goku or Gohan's Super Saiyan Full Power form isn't the same feeling he gets around a normal Super Saiyan.

One of the most notable traits of this state is that unlike an untrained Super Saiyan,which appears to stay at full power at all times,the user is able to freely modify their power level just like in their base state. This means any chosen percentage of the user's maximum power level can be used at any given time and it can be even suppressed to everyday functioning levels. A downside to this,explored in the anime only, is that with the Saiyan's power instinctively remaining elevated,it can be somewhat difficult to keep it suppressed to levels allowing to carry out day-to-day activities. While Goku and Gohan were drinking orange juice from glasses,they repeatedly broke the glasses from the difficulty of controlling their strength. It was believed that the original Super Saiyan form could not be used in conjunction with the Spirit Bomb, during the Kid Buu Saga Goku manages to use the mastered transformation after successfully creating and throwing the Super Spirit Bomb.

When a Super Saiyan achieves an extremely high level of power,they will exhibit sparks around their aura (like a Super Saiyan 2) this has only been displayed by Vegito,Goku Black, and Goku in Dragon Ball GT against powerful opponents or a specific ritual (after taking power from Vegeta,Gohan,Goten and Trunks).|In an interview,Akira Toriyama noted that since Super Saiyan 2 and Super Saiyan 3 are simply powered-up versions of Super Saiyan,completely mastering the normal state and the Super Saiyan form would lead Super Saiyan to being stronger than both Super Saiyan 2 and Super Saiyan 3. In Dragon Ball Super,once Goku and Vegeta master the power of Super Saiyan God,they can further evolve their power by utilizing the power of Super Saiyan God in conjunction with Super Saiyan,the result being Super Saiyan Blue.
