This episode was pretty much 107 aside from a couple of re-animated frames, though there weren't too many to my knowledge. Gohan narrates the next episode preview.

I suspect we'll get a new opening for the Cell arc unless they plan on doing it after Trunks completes his role of the informant.

It's funny how the last time I watched Kai, Kuririn died. Then, when I turn on my computer and start watching the episode at around 8:16, he's brought back to life. I don't have much to say about the episode... Let me think...

Is Puar always that light-colored? Was the scene, where Piccolo looks over Gohan at end, filler? If so, it should've been cut. It seemed like it didn't belong...

[Goku100xKamehameha]

Boring episode.

Piccolo, yes, but the scene itself, a shot of the Son house with the narrator talking about the world being at peace, is canon.

[JulieYBM]

Yes, I wept a bit when the Namekians were leaving.


It was nice to see the Dragon Soul instrumental return after about 51 episodes.

Anyone want to bet Otomo will take over Cold?

[Khalid Shahin]

So I guess we aren't getting the Garlic Junior Saga.

Anyone that know Japanese,translate this!

Yay, it's officially official.

I can't read Japanese, but judging by the date shown in the text (July 2011), it probably says something about Japan's digital transition on that date.

The next episode preview

Nice, but I nearly wet myself with excitement last week when Yamucha did the preview.

Although I still love Gohan doing the preview for the robot episode back in DBZ. That was just adorable.

Yeah I know it too but I wanna know what it is written.

[BobZ]

It looks like we'll get to see Trunks' battle with Freeza in two weeks' time.

Wow, so with this the Namek arc comes to a close.
A nice little epilogue episode.
Loved that little piece of music as Piccolo is watching over Gohan, a fitting end to the arc.

With the Namek story cut down form to 72 episodes to just 38, I finally feel alright about re-watching it.
Two thumbs up, Kai.

[Son Wukong]

It actually takes a whole year for Freeza to recover and the anime makes it look so much less. Kinda odd how I never really realized these things yet.

[Bura]

I was disappointed that they cut some parts out like for example Bulma's mother talking to Vegeta. Also too bad that they let Vegeta leave even though he stayed on Earth in the manga. But I guess it was too much trouble to cut around that. Anyway, nice little episode. I'm all ready for Trunks now.



Anyone notice something odd?
Edit: It also seems to be missing in Z. How weird
Edit2: Huh, in all the scenes there he's not wearing it. Why?!

Piccolo's hat?

Maybe he took it off, stranger things have happened.

[Vino]

Goddamn, that's terrible...........

[Goku100xKamehameha]

It looks like we'll get to see Trunks' battle with Freeza in two weeks' time.

And it looks like we get a new opening animation in three weeks' time,I already can imagine how Cell Transforms And beam struggle with Gohan.it will be so cool
