The 21st Tenka'ichi Budōkai is the first martial arts competition in Dragon Ball. At the time of the 21st, the Tenka'ichi Budōkai was held once every five years,[1] but there was such a high number of participants at the 21st, the frequency was changed to three years.[2]

Overview

Background

On the first day of Goku and Kuririn's training with Muten Rōshi, he tells them that if they do not shirk on their training, he will enter them into the Tenka'ichi Budōkai in eight months. He warns them that winning should not be their goal; their goal should only be to enter, and do their best; winning would be unrealistic.[3] However, they surpass his expectations, and when he realizes they might actually have a chance of winning the tournament, he decides to enter in disguise to prevent that, fearing a win might go to their heads and make them think they have no room to improve.[4] When he watches Goku defeat Namu, he realizes that after all his efforts, he still might lose![5]
