"Unavoidable?! The Fierce Stealth Attack!!" is the one hundred and nineteenth episode of the Japanese animated television series Dragon Ball Super. The episode first aired in Japan on Fuji TV on 10 December 2017, receiving a ratings share of 4.5%. It was written by Ayumu Hisao and directed by Toshiaki Komura.

Synopsis

With the annihilation of Universe 6, the Tournament of Power is approaching its final stage! Universe 4 now begins a surprise attack against Universe 7! How will Goku and co. face this invisible enemy?! On the arena, the battle between Universe 7's Vegeta and the Universe 3 warrior Catopesra has nearly reached its conclusion. But before that can happen, Catopesra seems to be caught off-guard and tripped up, falling from the arena. What's more, Vegeta and Gohan are attacked by something they can't see, and nearly fall from the arena too. This something, which can be neither seen nor have its ki sensed, also surprise-attacks No. 18. It turns out to be Universe 4's invisible person Gamisalas, but No. 18 is not sure how to fight this invisible enemy. The Universe 4 warriors who hold special abilities have at long last bared their fangs and attacked!

Summary

As Vegeta and Catopesra continue to battle, Catopesra finally changes into his "Ultimate Mode", increasing both his power and speed 300-fold. But the uninterested Vegeta attacks him before he can finish explaining about this form, forcing Catopesra to use his ultimate technique, "The Final Mission". Vegeta though counters this with a Final Flash, which he offers as a superior example of a "final" technique.

Vegeta's blast knocks Catopesra to the edge of the arena, but he just barely manages to stop himself before going over. Suddenly though, Catopesra tumbles over the edge and is ringed out. As Catopesra materializes in the bleachers, the Universe 3 God of Destruction Mosco asks him through his Angel Camparri what happened, but even he isn't sure himself. It was like something attacked his feet…At that moment, something nearly knocks Vegeta out of the arena as well, and soon after Gohan is kicked from behind and goes over the edge, though thankfully Piccolo stretches out his arms to rescue him.

Something strange is going on, but nobody is sure what. Could it be someone using teleportation, an afterimage, or Hit's Time-Skip skill? No. 18 is the next to be attacked by this mysterious opponent, and when Quitela laughs Beerus realizes this must be another one of his tricks. The Turtle Hermit wonders if they might be dealing with an invisible person, and while Beerus can't believe it would be something so old-fashioned, Quitela confirms that this is indeed the case. Still, knowing this doesn't help No. 18 much, since it's tricky to attack or defend against someone you can't see.

Piccolo jumps in and unleashes a large blast from out of his entire body, enveloping everything in front of him (the same technique he used against Goku at the 23rd Tenka'ichi Budōkai). This way, he should be able to hit his enemy without aiming. However, the invisible enemy still manages to get away, and using such powerful attacks repeatedly will quickly drain Piccolo's stamina. Quitela's plan is to wear them down like this and then ring them out.

Remembering the last time he encountered an invisible man, the Turtle Hermit recommends that Gohan cover the enemy in something…such as a nosebleed. Gohan however opts to fire a series of blasts to create a cloud of dust, thus revealing the vaguely lizard-like outline of their opponent, Gamisalas. Now able to see his opponent, Piccolo wastes no time in defeating him. In the bleachers, Gamisalas apologizes to Quitela, and Beerus brags that such tricks won't work against Universe 7, but Quitela thinks to himself that they are just getting started.

Quitela orders the diminutive Shantsa to get going, and Shantsa creates a strange red zone around the Universe 7 fighters. Trio de Dangers and other warriors from the destroyed universes appear, claiming to be back for revenge. Though Piccolo recognizes these as illusions, they are apparently still solid enough to attack him and the others, though their own attacks simply pass through their phantom opponents.

While the phantoms themselves have no ki to sense, Piccolo can still sense two people nearby: one moving, and one still. Gohan realizes that the still one must be creating the illusions, while the other uses the illusions as cover to attack them. Indeed, Piccolo soon spots Shantsa hiding nearby and very easily blows him out of the arena, much to Quitela's annoyance. The illusions and red zone vanish, but the second fighter still remains and continues his attack.

This final Universe 4 fighter, Damon, is apparently another invisible person, but unlike Gamisalas he is unable to suppress his ki, and Piccolo confidently attacks him. For some reason though, none of Piccolo's attacks connect, and in his confusion he is caught off-guard and knocked from the arena. Materializing in the bleachers, Piccolo wonders what happened; it's almost as if Damon is not only invisible, but lacks a physical body.

Goku saves No. 17 from getting ringed out by Damon's attacks, and No. 17 soon figures out Damon's secret. He stands still and closes his eyes, taunting Damon to come attack him. Not distracted by sight or ki-sensing, No. 17's attacks zero in on Damon and finally reveal his true nature: a tiny bug person. Since everyone incorrectly assumed Damon was invisible, the discrepancy between the ki they sensed from him and his tiny size prevented any of their attacks from hitting.

Even knowing Damon's secret, it's still difficult for Goku and No. 17 to manage to hit such a small and fast opponent; what's worse, they have to be careful not to kill him and get disqualified. No. 17 figures out that Damon has no wings and therefore must always jump to attack, so Goku repeatedly punches the arena, crumbling the ground beneath Damon's feet and throwing him off enough for No. 17 to capture him within a tiny barrier.

No. 17 kicks the now immobilized Damon out of bounds, and the Great Priest officially announces Damon's loss. With the elimination of the last of Universe 4's fighters, the Omni-Kings prepare to annihilate Universe 4. Quitela refuses to accept this and tries to take everyone else down with him, but before he can do anything, he and the rest of Universe 4 cease to exist.

12 minutes remain in the Tournament of Power.

Production

An overview of the Universe 4 team (published 21 August 2017) including Damon (center, far left) and an early design for Gamisalas (bottom, second from right).

An early design concept for Gamisalas was revealed in the October 2017 issue of V-Jump, published on 21 August 2017. In this early design, he appears to be a color-variant copy of his teammate Damon, who is quite different in size and features from what we can make out of Gamisalas's final design. This episode was broadcast on 10 December 2017, and this time frame provides a indication of the series' production schedule at that time. Gamisalas and Damon are two of only three participants in the Tournament of Power who never had a profile or design published on Toei Animation's dedicated website. The other is Maji-Kayo of Universe 3.

In August, around the time this issue of V-Jump was published, the final three Dragon Ball Super box sets began to appear on retailer sites. At this time, the series was planned to have 133 episodes. This was the earliest indication that the series would be ending; all of the Super box sets included twelve episodes, but the eleventh box was originally intended to have thirteen. This was eventually whittled down to eleven episodes for the eleventh box, for a total of 131 episodes.

The title of Episode 119 was originally given in promotional notices as follows:

A New Victim from Universe 7! Universe 4 Gets Serious!!
第７宇宙から新たな犠牲者！第４宇宙の本領！
Dai nana uchū kara aratana gisei-sha! Dai yon uchū no honryō!

The final title first appeared in the Next Episode Preview following the broadcast of Dragon Ball Super Episode 118.
