Dragon Ball Teases Kale's 'Female Broly' Super Saiyan Name

Whether you love or hate them, the female Super Saiyans of Universe 6 won't be going away anytime soon. The characters were introduced in Dragon Ball Super, and the Saiyans have carved out a nice fandom for themselves. Caulifla's hot-headed personality charmed fans while Kale's manic Super Saiyan form piqued lots of attention. And, now, fans may be closer to learning the official name of Kale's transformation.

Over on Twitter, the Dragon Ball fandom began buzzing about screenshots taken from Dokkan Battle, a popular Dragon Ball Z mobile game. The app includes Kale in its roster now, and fan translators like Todd Blankenship helped fans by decoding its Japanese text for English natives.
"Dokkan Battle refers to Kale's Broly form as ケール(暴走), "Kale (Out of Control)" Blankenship tweeted.
"暴走 is the same phrase used in ep.100's title."
Sadly, the update doesn't give Dragon Ball fans lot of new information to work with. The franchise's video games aren't normally considered canon, and Dokkan Battle simply describes Kale as being "Out of Control." However, Blankenship did note the name could be translated to Kale (Rampage) or Kale (Berserker) if you really wanted to stretch.
Fans are now wondering why Dokkan Battle does not refer to Kale as a Super Saiyan or really acknowledge her bulky form. The girl looks like she has gone Legendary Super Saiyan a la Broly, but Dragon Ball Super has yet to gift that title to Kale. As such, fans simply chose to call the form Super Saiyan Berserker, but even that seems to be a stretch. There's a chance Kale has yet to fully expand her Super Saiyan transformation, or it could be that her 'Out of Control' form isn't actually a Super Saiyan form at all.
And, if should that be the case, then you can bet Goku will want to find a way to go berserk too.
