"Onward to the Promised Resort! Vegeta Goes on a Family Trip?!" is the second episode of the Japanese animated television series Dragon Ball Super. The episode first aired in Japan on Fuji TV on 12 July 2015, receiving a ratings share of 5.6%. It was written by King Ryū and directed by Masato Mikami.

Synopsis

It's the Prince of the Saiyans' family time! Vegeta goes out with Bulma and Trunks to a resort area. Bulma and Trunks are very happy with this unexpected family time together, but even as he’s doing this, Vegeta is bothered that Goku is off training. Meanwhile, Goku is training on Planet Kaiō! Training under the ten-times gravity on Planet Kaiō is perfect. In spite of the nuisance to Kaiō, Goku starts his training, but what is his surprising training method?![1]

Summary

Kaiō is going for a joyride around his small planet, cracking bad jokes to Bubbles and Gregory, when Goku teleports in front of them. Kaiō crashes the car into his house in surprise, and is annoyed to learn that Goku has stopped by for more training.

On Earth, Bulma is flying over to a resort island in her personal plane, with Trunks napping in the back and Vegeta standing outside on the roof. When Vegeta complains that this will not count as training, Bulma ramps up the speed and dives underwater for a bit. Later, while shopping on the island, Bulma asks Vegeta why he is taking time out of his training to go on a trip like this with them. Vegeta thinks back to when he promised to take Trunks to an amusement park while the two were training before Majin Boo appeared. Bulma notes that Vegeta seems somehow different since fighting Boo. The family goes on to enjoy various attractions around the island, including a train and a lot more shopping, before having dinner in a fancy restaurant. Trunks and Vegeta both devour endless food, until Vegeta gets covered head to toe in ink while eating a whole octopus. This angers him so much that his power shatters the restaurant's windows, but he finally manages to restrain himself.

While the family sit on the beach watching the sunset, Bulma sees a cruise liner and thinks that a ship like that might be a good place to hold her birthday party. As the nighttime festivities get increasingly rowdy, Vegeta is having trouble containing his irritation. Despite having admitted during the battle with Boo that Goku is number one, he still does not want to fall behind on his training. When the MC invites him up on stage, it is the last straw; he finally snaps and blasts off. Bulma is impressed that he managed to last so long, and Trunks happily calls out "thanks Dad!" as Vegeta vanishes into the distance.

Out in the depths of space, Beerus is trying to remember the details of his dream as he and Whis head to another alien planet. On this planet, primitive green creatures with four eyes and four arms battle against a gigantic winged dinosaur. The natives' stone weapons are no match, but in the end the dinosaur is single-handedly defeated by a larger yellow member of their species: their leader. No sooner has the leader defeated the dinosaur than Whis appears before him, asking if he and Beerus can try some of the dinosaur's meat. When the leader does not understand, Whis repeats the request in the natives' grunting language. Unpersuaded, the leader transforms into a larger red form, ready for a fight. Beerus has lost patience; he had hoped eating the meat of such a "gutsy" creature might help him remember the figure from his prophetic dream. Whis points out the Beerus' "prophetic" dreams have not been terribly accurate in the past, such as when Beerus dreamed that a pop idol would be moving in with them. Deciding he can do without the meat after all, Beerus easily kills the native leader, and proceeds to blow up the planet.

As the planet is destroyed, the Elder Kaiōshin off in the Kaiōshin Realm can tell that something is wrong. He asks Kibitoshin if he can sense that the God of Destruction, Beerus has awakened. Back on Earth, Vegeta has returned to Capsule Corporation and starts training in the gravity room, while Goku has likewise begun training on Kaiō’s planet by dragging huge weights around. Seeing the planet's explosion causes Beerus to finally remember the figure from his dream: "Super Saiyan God". He and Whis return home so that he can try and remember more…

Continuity

Adaptations

There are four official English adaptations of this episode:

  1. The Toei Animation simulcast subtitles distributed to simulcast platforms (including Funimation's streaming service);
  2. The Funimation subtitles by Steven J. Simmons, included with all English home video releases, including digital purchase platforms like Amazon;
  3. The Funimation English dub; and
  4. The Bang Zoom! dub produced for Toonami Asia.

The notes on the Funimation dub are contrasted with their own Simmons subtitles unless otherwise noted.

  • While driving around his planet, Kaiō remarks that it is a nice day for a drive, and says: "Peace, peace! Peace is tops! Peace is nice." (平和平和。平和が一番。平和がへいわー) Kaiō's pun — 平和がへいわー (heiwa ga hei waa), set in the standard structure of "X is X" using homophones — roughly means "hooray, peace!"
    • Simmons attempts to explain this literally in his subtitles as "peace (heiwa) is nice (ee wa)".
    • The Toei simulcast subtitles adapt the pun: "Nice and peaceful. Peace is best. A piece of peace..."
    • In the Funimation dub, Kaiō says: "You know, when evil monsters aren't bent on destruction, life is easy as pie! A great big easy pie and you can cut me a world piece!"
    • In the Bang Zoom! dub, Kaiō says: "The whole world just for me. Nothing can beat peace. Unless, of course, we're talking about... a piece of cake!"

Manga

The events of the manga and the anime diverge significantly. Below are the main differences, along with the chapters where the events of this episode occur or contrast.

  • The events with Beerus in this episode mirror events in chapter 1 of the manga.
    • Beerus only destroys one planet in the manga before he goes to find Goku. That planet more closely mirrors the planet that Beerus half-destroys in episode 1 than it does the planet destroyed in this episode.
    • In the manga, Beerus is fêted by a bug-like alien race. They try to poison him, and then offer him "Soup Yasai Jinkot" (スープ・ヤサイ・ジンコット), which causes Beerus to remember the name "Super Saiyan God" (sūpā saiyajin goddo スーパー・サイヤ人・ゴッド). "Yasai" (野菜) is the Japanese word for "vegetables" and the source of the Saiyan (Saiya-jin) pun.
    • Beerus then destroys the offending planet and decides to return home. The chapter ends in the Universe 7 Kaiōshin Realm. Kibitoshin notices a planet has been destroyed, and the Elder Kaiōshin has a bad feeling about it.
  • The events with Goku in this episode mirror events in chapter 2 of the manga.

Episode Notes

  • Gregory is present during this episode alongside Kaiō and Bubbles. Gregory, not present in the manga, was developed and designed by Akira Toriyama as extra material for the Dragon Ball Z TV series when the staff asked for an additional character.
  • The two fruits sticking out of Vegeta's head during Bulma's aggressive flight are a pomelo ("zabon" in Japanese) and durian, a nod to Zarbon and Dodoria.
  • When discussing the winged dinosaur's meat, Whis notes that it has a good reputation in Universe 7. This is the first mention in the series of one of the twelve universes originally alluded to at the end of the 2013 theatrical film Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods.

Staff & Cast Notes

  • While the character Zarbon is referenced earlier in the episode (see notes above), it is actually Zarbon's voice actor from Dragon Ball Kai, Hiroaki Miura, who voices the character trying to convince Vegeta to come up on stage.

Production

Animation

This episode is supervised by Osamu Ishikawa, but Ishikawa's style is barely evident in the episode, which is heavily corrected by series animation director Tadayoshi Yamamuro, chief animation supervisor Miyako Tsuji, who is responsible for the even-numbered episodes of Dragon Ball Super, and even Masahiro Shimanuki, whose work is uncredited.

This episode features an appearance by Yuki Hayashi, best known among Dragon Ball fans for his work in Dragon Ball Super: Broly during Broly's fight with Gogeta, where his work is largely uncorrected. Hayashi also animated Freeza's final beat-down by Vegeta in Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection 'F', where his work is heavily corrected by Yamamuro.

There are three entries for this episode on Sakugabooru, a website dedicated to documenting the highlights of the industry's greatest animators.

Storyboard

Portions of Naotoshi Shida's storyboard for this episode are found in the Super Start Guide published in advance of the series debut.

Shida tweeted that he was starting work on a storyboard on 09 April 2015,[2] just over three months before the episode was broadcast, and before the show was announced on 28 April.[3] This is the only storyboard credit in Shida's œuvre at that time. Animation cannot begin until the storyboard is finished, so this serves as an indication of the show's production schedule.
