Episode Summary

Opening

When seven magic Dragon Balls are collected and the password is recited, a dragon named Shenlong appears to grant the summoner any wish.

Son Goku is an incredible warrior who lived in the mountains as a child, searched for the Dragon Balls while going on many adventures, and grew into adulthood with his new friends.

One day a vicious battle race called the Saiyans arrived on Earth — it seems that Goku was himself a Saiyan that had been sent to Earth as an infant. Saiyans maintain a youthful body for much of their lives.

Throughout his life, Goku continued to face terrifying enemies and overcome these challenges to protect Earth. Now the Earth faces a new threat…

Part A

Goku and the others, with the help of King Kadan’s army, take out all of Gomah’s forces. What’s next: do they go save Dende, or fight the Tamagami and get the last Dragon Ball? The plan seems to be to rescue Dende first.

Degesu walks in and snatches baby Dende from his sleep, which causes him to start crying.

Goku and the others arrive at the gates, but it’s closed up… with the Military Police Special Force waiting for them! After their flashy entrance and some chip munching, they’re ready to fight! No-one knows who they are, but Vegeta’s not interested in hearing about it. Hiria walks up and tries to egg on Vegeta, who remains stone faced. A tazer cannon is fired; Vegeta simply leans his head to the side to dodge it. The blast turns back around, but Vegeta remains in place until the last second, when he appears in front of Hiria, letting the blast hit him instead. Danima opens fire on Vegeta, but it’s another easy fight. Mashimu pulls out a knife and a gun, but Vegeta just casually blasts him on the spot. Gaimoi wonders if these guys truly did defeat Majin Boo and the Tamagami. Captain Kademu himself jumps in next, but Vegeta dodges each slice, kicking him back down to the ground. It’s time to use “that attack”…! Kademu flings a literal fireball at Vegeta, saying the next one will be even bigger. Danima lifts his gun, but hits Kademu in the process, injuring his hand and sending the fireball too short a distance to hit Vegeta.

The entire squad is tied up, and the heroes are off. Vegeta blasts the door open, while Goku is offered chips on the way. The group finds a statue of Gomah inside.

The young demon lady from before wanders the palace with the Third Eye in hand, but the military police are too busy running off to answer her questions about where to deliver it and claim her prize. She runs off to find someone else to ask.

Goku, still eating chips, agrees that they should go ahead and save Dende. Goku, Vegeta, Piccolo, and Kaiōshin continue onward, splitting off from the rest of the group. Panzy follows them soon after, with Glorio on her tail.

Degesu looks down from up above…

Part B

Degesu walks through a series of winding stairways with Dende in tow. Goku and the others do the same. Vegeta tells Goku to stop eating (he’s still chowing down on chips) and focus; Goku dumps the rest down his gullet and puts two fingers to his forehead… only to sense Dende nearby! The group jumps over the stairway, and Panzy enters from above, hot on their trail.

Degesu enters what appears to be an aircraft hanger, ready to depart with Dende. Goku gets his attention, but Degesu then lifts a gun to Dende. Kaiōshin yells for his brother to stop his foolishness. What has it been? Hundreds of year? No, more than a thousand years…! Goku finally pieces together that this guy is Kaiōshin’s younger brother. The standoff continues, as Degesu explains his plan to become king of the Demon Realm. Kaiōshin presses him on this, but Degesu fires back: it’s in a Glind’s nature to seek higher positions, so what exactly does he do in the outside realm…? Goku wonders the same question. He (apparently) oversees peace and order in the universe. Degesu goes to make his escape, but the gun is still pointed at Dende.

Gomah watches on his monitor, livid at Degesu’s turn.

Panzy finally makes her move, but Degesu is too fast, and turns the gun on her. Just then, the Hybis’ new squiggly hat flies across the room, smacking Degesu in the face and knocking Dende up in the air. Panzy slides in for the catch, while Piccolo then delivers a perfect chop to Degesu, knocking him out. It turns out Glorio threw the hat. Hybis’ head is cold. Dende looks up to see everyone, and starts laughing.

Gomah is happy to at least see Degesu gets his comeuppance, but this is no time to celebrate. As Gomah zooms around in confusion, the young demon lady makes her way in with the belt and Third Eye. She mentions needing to still be paid for her services; she even lost the hat that her ex gave her in the process of doing this job. Gomah says she can take whatever she wants from the other room; he’s simply psyched to finally have the Third Eye.

Kadan’s army leads Degesu off as a prisoner while the heroes watch on. Now that Dende has been rescused, all that’s left is for them to challenge the Tamagami, win the Dragon Ball, and wish to be turned back into adults. Goku asks if they should take on Gomah first, but Glorio says that Gomah shouldn’t be underestimated; becoming adults first is the safer bet. Neva says the First Demon World’s Tamagami is right across the way from them.

The group arrives at the Tamagami, who Goku thinks looks even stronger than the others. Vegeta wants to know who’s fighting; Goku says that Vegeta fought the last one, so it’s his own turn again now. The group looks on, but something’s wrong: the Dragon Ball is missing! As everyone reacts, Glorio feigns shock as well. The Tamagami announces that its Dragon Ball has already been given to the victor. Just then, Doctor Arinsu walks in, with sleepy Koo and Doo in tow. The first Dragon Ball is already theirs!

Gomah tries going at the belt with a spoon, but the eye just isn’t coming out. A series of wreches and pliers likewise didn’t get the job done. Gomah flings it around and takes a bathroom break… which gives him a great idea: a plunger! It works on the first try, but the eye then falls right back into place in the belt. Gomah goes at it some more, and eventually pulls the eye out again; this time if floats around in the air. Gomah grabs the attention of the demon lady, who is walking out dressed to the nines and with a backpack full of riches. She hesitantly explains that she was told she could take whatever she wanted, but Gomah just wants her to take the eye and press it against his forehead. She’s not interested in this, but the Demon King is ordering her to do so! Gomah offers her 50,000 dokuro; she counter with 100,000, and Gomah reluntantly agrees. The lady takes the eye and starts smashing it against Gomah’s forehead; eventually it falls into place, which then kickstarts a transformation throughout Gomah’s body. The demon lady runs away, dropping riches underneath the shadow of a giant Gomah (though she quickly returns to pick them back up).

Next Time:
“Gomah”

Episode Notes

  • Keeping up with the series’ ongoing inconsistency between formal episode title cards and titles written in the lower corner overtop footage, episode 16 has a traditional title card.
