Summary

Jaco fires his ship's cannon at Gohan, who manages to dodge. Down below, the townspeople see the battle and wonder if they are filming the Great Saiyaman movie. Gohan reveals his identity to Jaco (who is a little slow on recognizing him), and Jaco explains about Watagash. The creature is a mental parasite that fuses with its host and powers them up; the more evil they are, the stronger it makes them. Watagash has destroyed an entire civilization before.

Gohan wants to go tell Goku about this right away, but Jaco insists they keep this investigation as secret as possible. If Gohan keeps his lips shut, Jaco promises not to tell his wife he is out on a date with Amaguri. Gohan protests that he and Amaguri are not on a date, and goes back to her place to practice lines together.

But this whole scenario is just a set-up by Barry Kahn. He plans to get photos of Gohan at Amaguri's house and leak them to the papers to cause a scandal which (he assumes) will tear Gohan's family apart. It will be payback for Gohan outshining him! Amaguri's song sales are not so great these days either, and Barry threatens to end her career if she does not go along with it.

Amaguri goes to open the curtains for the photographer outside, but Gohan's kind words of encouragement to her cause her to change her mind and keep them closed. Up on the roof after practice, Amaguri warns Gohan not to exit downstairs, and suddenly kisses him. Gohan flies off in embarrassment.

Amaguri thinks she has saved him from being photographed, by Barry himself was nearby taking pictures from a different spot, and gets the kiss on film. Amazed to see Gohan actually fly, he realizes Gohan must be the real Saiyaman, but considers this just more blackmail material.

As day breaks, Gohan returns home, where Videl assumes yesterday's filming lasted all night. Before he can explain though, Barry arrives with the incriminating photos. Videl however is not impressed. She knows Gohan well enough to realize he is not the sort of person to do this, and that there must be some reason.

Barry next threatens to expose Gohan's identity as Saiyaman to the media, but Gohan simply forces him to leave. Outside, Barry stews in rage, and is soon spotted and taken over by Watagash. The powered-up Barry counterattacks, knocking Gohan out and kidnapping Pan. He leaves a message challenging Saiyaman to meet him at the TV station.

At the TV station, a crowd of TV reporters and bystanders gathers as Gohan arrives and begins fighting Barry, who under Watagash's influence powers up into a giant blue ape creature. With Barry preoccupied, Videl flies up and takes Pan away to safety. Barry now powers up into an even bigger (properly Godzilla-sized) monster, and knocks Gohan into a nearby tower. Meanwhile, the film's director arrives and starts filming the battle.

Jaco arrives and prepares to use his ship's cannon against the Barry/Watagash monster, but Gohan stops him. Doing that would kill Barry, and he does not want Pan to witness that! At first Gohan seems to be losing to monster-Barry, but Videl is not worried. She explains to Amaguri that she knows Gohan would never lose in front of Pan!

Hearing Videl and Pan's cheers, Gohan goes Super Saiyan (a form the director dubs "Super Great Saiyaman") and counters monster-Barry's beam with his own "Super Great Saiyaman Beam". Barry is defeated, but still alive (Gohan explains that he held back). Jaco seals Watagash away in another container, and wonders what he should do with Barry, who has returned to his normal human form.

The completed film Great Saiyaman vs Mister Satan opens in theaters, with Gohan's fight against monster-Barry incorporated into it with the explanation that the monster is the manifestation of the evil inside Saiyaman. Barry keeps Gohan's identity as Saiyaman secret, since otherwise Amaguri would spill the beans about him being the monster. The entire Son family attends the movie, but Goku falls asleep; he enjoys fighting, but finds watching fights to be dull.

To celebrate, Jaco stops by the same ramen shop as before. Outside in his spaceship, Watagash's container cracks open once again…

Availability

This episode has been released in numerous countries and languages around the world in both streaming and physical formats. "Simulcast" streaming services (even Funimation) use the Toei Animation subtitles rather than the Funimation subtitles by Steven J. Simmons, while digital purchase platforms use the Simmons subtitles that are provided on the Funimation DVDs and Blu-rays.

Streaming debut dates only apply to the subtitled simulcast. Dubbed episodes were to Funimation's streaming service a few weeks after the dub broadcast, and to AnimeLab around the time of the Madman home video release. Simulcast dates reflect regional time zones. The United Kingdom was originally covered by the now-defunct Daisuki streaming service until Crunchyroll added the UK to their Dragon Ball Super coverage area on 30 May 2017.
