2 - Beerus doing his job as an Hakaishin + Vegeta/Bulma/Trunks slice of life. Need I say more?

18 - Such an underrated episode. Love the callbacks to Kame-sennin's training back in early DB. This episode alone made the atrocious FnF retell worth it.

36 - Vegeta vs Cabba. This fight far exceeded my expectations. Vegeta had arguably one of his best moments in the series, easily his best in Super.

47 - What a marvelous way to kick start a story arc. Damn :clap:

51 - Solely because of this and this.

11, 14, 39, 56 and 57 - Not much to add to what has already been said. These were flawless episodes and should be the standard for the entire series.

Let me try!

- 39: This episode made me scream like a little girl. It had everything I wanted, plus the OP playing really screams "This is what Super is made of." Hit was just such a great character here and Blue Kaioken was a crazy thing.

- 57: Same things as above. I love, LOVE Black and his Rose transformation is even better. The Shida cut just gave me that explosion of action that BoG (Movie) had. The only reason why I have 39 above this is because I'm a sucker for Insert Songs.

- 11: If only we got this fight in the BoG movie as well... I swear I can't get over that silence when Beerus stabbed Goku, especially because I just wasn't expecting that to happen.

- 16: I think you guys already touched on everything great this episode had.

- 43: Pan, Pan, PAN. She stole the show this episode. Even as a baby I just can't help but to feel I already like her more than whatever GT had.

- 47: When they said change of tone. Dear god did they mean it.
stay edgy

#2 Vegeta's family vacation was really funny and show us a part that we didn't see in DBZ.
#16 was very funny too with the interaction with krilin and goku and of curse the vegeta cook thing, even though they exagerate a little bit with his expression was pretty good and I love the fact that Bulma support him with his training giving him a new armor.
#29 a vegebul episode :wink:
#35, 36, and 37 Vegeta's fights in the tournament were really amazing.
#39 The kaioken :thumbup:
#42 The funnier episode so far I laugh a lot with Beerus :lol:
#45 Really good to see the little boys in action again with monaka I really like him :lol:
#46 Goku to the rescue and a father-son touchable moment with Vegeta saving Trunks
#48 future Trunks meeting again with his friends in the past was great and the part when he meets himself as a boy was very funny too with the speculations of the pilaf gang.
#56 Shocking episode SSJ rose and the appeareance of Zamasu
#57 amazing episode for me is the best episode so far animation was great and Trunks showed us that he still is a badass. :clap:

Let's see...

1 & 2: Great re-introductions to Goku and Vegeta's family. Also, great art and great animation for both episodes as well.

11: Epic episode. Almost rivals the fight scene in the movie.

16: Great character interactions, and shows us how Vegeta got to Beerus' home planet.

18: Very entertaining, and showed us what training Goku and Vegeta did before they began sparring with Whis.

31: It had great art and animation, it followed the manga's story almost precisely, and it felt very Toriyama like.

39: Another epic episode.

47: Very dark, cool, and let's us know the struggle of Trunks, as well as the evilness of Goku Black.

57: A good episode with lots of fighting. I especially liked the tag team between Goku/Trunks and Black/Zamasu. I specifically remember buying some Wendy's, then rushing home to catch the live stream of this episode on YT. I was glad that this episode did not disappoint.

61: Very Z like episode imo. We finally saw a Goku in full on rage, and Trunks' new transformation was very cool. I just wished it was more explained or more well thought out.

65: Just non-stop fighting almost the entire episode. Good.

66: Very epic episode. 3 epic battles, the return of Vegito, and an ultimate "kill" by Trunks. Just wish that whole fiasco by Trunks was also explained more. All though it was sorta nonsense, I still enjoyed it.

75: My favorite episode out of those 9 filler episodes. It had heart, and it was a little bit emotional on Krillin's end. It also featured a quick, but awesome fight scene from Goku and Gohan.

80: It was just so nice to see Gohan fighting again (even if we saw it in ep 75, it just felt more real here). And Gohan's my favorite character, so ya can't beat that!

84: Even with the SSJB controversy and even though it's yet another Krillin episode, it was still a very heartfelt and epic (yes, I know i'm saying the word a lot) episode.

86: A very awesome fight between Goku and 17. It also had some very beautiful art and backgrounds. 17 was also a very cool character, and it was nice seeing him back again.

88: The rebirth of Gohan. Nuff said.

90: An amazing episode full of fighting, which also felt very Z like. Nuff said.

94: Very, very good episode. It had Roshi training back with Korin. It had a nice reunion between 17 and Piccolo. It had my favorite animator Karasawa return. It had a wonderful transformation from Frieza which rivals the movie. And it had this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ucs8S5pbPwc

95: Great episode. Frieza's vicious attack against the assassins were not only entertaining, but also expected from Frieza's character. Plus, Naotoshi Shida's art was just phenomenal once again.

99: I really liked the tag team between Goku/Vegeta and Universe 9's fighters. Very well done.

101: Very epic episode. Kale controlling her berserk form along with her and Kale's beam struggle against the Pride Troopers was very awesome too. I also liked 17 and 18's involvement in the episode as well. It's always great to see them working together.

And that's my list so far. When one trash talks about Super, i'd highly advice that you show them these episodes listed.

90 - Goku vs Gohan, something people have been wanting to see for probably 20 years or so. The entire episode was pretty much focused on them, even in the tag team fight. It was a great episode to show how Gohan has finally returned to his former self by challenging Goku to a fight. It was entertaining, exciting, and fun. Definitely more of a fanservice episode, but the best kind of fanservice episode.

94 - Probably the best overall episode in the entirety of Super IMO. And it doesn't even have any action, really. It didn't even need it. The writing was so on point, the art was so on point, the interactions between Goku and Freeza were so good, this is literally the perfect episode of Super just because of how good the writing was.

95 - Following this is probably the second best episode of Super. The entire episode is focused solely on Goku and Freeza, and the interactions between the two of them as well as the U9 mooks is perfect. Goku is clearly conflicted because he needs Freeza's help, and while Goku gets angry that Freeza seems to be killing "innocent" people, Freeza points out that they'll die anyway when they win the tournament so whats it matter? Goku doesn't even have a response for this and just the entire exchange between them is written so well with Goku realizing he just released a monster into the world but he has no choice. The art in this episode was probably some of the best stuff we've seen too, and the animation was killer.

99 - Krillin and 18 kicked some ass. The focus on both of them was really cool and their energy ping pong technique was something was the likes of something we've never seen before. A real shame Krillin was the first to get knocked out, but he and 18 put on a really fun episode to watch, and Goku was barely in it at all.

101 - I really liked this episode, I thought all the character interactions were great, and I liked 17 and 18 coming to Goku's rescue, which is just so ironic since they were originally introduced in the franchise to kill him. How things have changed. Caulifla and Kale also had some great moments. This was just a really really fun episode to watch overall.

Well, since this thread got bumped I guess I'll add some more episodes.

Episodes 61, 63, 66, 70, 71, 75, 79, 86, 90, 94 and 95.

61: Just a well written episodes with several memorable moments. Black and Zamasu hugging, Black murdering Chi Chi and Goten, Goku gets angry for the first time in a while, Black's badass sword exploding attack on Goku, Trunks being blamed for everything that has happened and the awesome transformation that followed it.

63: This is awesome purely for that Vegeta moment. There's also other great stuff like Zamasu monologuing even though no one was listening.

66: Say what you will about the writing, but holy fuck was this a spectacle. Just right from the very start we get heart-racing action. Goku can't use his arms because he's completely drained from his full powered Kamehameha, so he proceeds to instead kick the everliving shit outta Zamasu followed by a Kaioken kick to the head. God damn that got me hyped. Vegetto makes a return, and although it was brief, it still managed to be super entertaining and we got a beautifully animated fight out of it. Trunks being the one to "finish" Zamasu was awesome.

70: It's baseball but with Dragon Ball characters... 'nuff said.

71: I really liked the episode's mysterious tone. Goku running around places with so much caution was entertaining. The ending was what got me though.

75: A really really well made episode. Goes to show just how good an episode can be with wonderful storytelling.

79: Majin Buu going at it against Basil with Tate animating. One of the best fights in Super.

86: Another really well made episode. Also has one of Tate's best pieces of animation in the entire series.

90: This was all kinds of awesome. All action from beginning to end. Highlight for me was when Gohan smashed poor Tien into the ground like he was nothing.

94: Goku and Freeza had a bro moment when they punched each other in the gut and it was strangely adorable. Also that Golden transformation at the end was amazing. Extra points towards the episode for having tiny details like Goku recreating his fight with Grandpa Gohan at Baba's Palace. Also, this.

95: This is honestly in the top 5 best episodes of Super for me. Freeza is an absolute fucking monster. As much as I enjoyed Resurrection 'F', this single episode was able to show the best of Freeza's character in just under 20 minutes. It also includes an amazing cut from Shida.

Now I'm just waiting for an episode from the Tournament of Power to blow me away.
