"Trading Blows for the First Time! Artificial Human No. 17 vs Son Goku!!" is the eighty-sixth episode of the Japanese animated television series Dragon Ball Super. The episode first aired in Japan on Fuji TV on 16 April 2017, receiving a ratings share of 5.0%. It was written by Toshio Yoshitaka and directed by Takao Iwai.

Synopsis

With Dende's guidance, Goku visits No. 17, who is an animal conservation officer on a certain island, in order to recruit him as a team member for the Tournament of Power. Goku finds him fighting against poachers. After they defeat the poachers together, they talk about old times, and then Goku suggests that they have a match! Goku spars with the now-more-powerful No. 17 to gauge him, then immediately tries to recruit him. But No. 17 turns Goku down. Why?![1][2][3][4][5]

Summary

Dende speaks some words of Namekian, causing the Nyoibō to retract back up into his floating temple. With the temple now unanchored, it starts to move towards the southern island where No. 17 now lives. Goku is suitably impressed, though he's worried that No. 17 might still want to kill him. Dende tells him not to worry: Doctor Gero may have created No. 17 for that purpose, but he's a different man now.

These days, No. 17's got a wife and children, and works as a ranger protecting an entire island of animals all on his own. In addition, he's kept on training and has grown far stronger than he was back in the day. Goku's been so focused on all the enemies from off-world that he hadn't even noticed this new powerhouse developing right here on Earth.

Speaking of strong guys on Earth, Dende asks Goku if he's aware of the super-strong little kid growing up in a nearby village. This kid is incredibly talented at martial arts, and Dende suggests Goku could teach him how to properly use his power when he gets a little older.

At first Goku is puzzled, but then Dende explains the kid is the reincarnation of the evil Majin Boo that Goku defeated. At the time, Goku had wished for Boo to be reincarnated as a good person, and his prayers were answered.

Goku looks forward to meeting this kid some day, but first he's got to win the tournament and save their universe from destruction. Dende has faith in him to pull it off. The temple arrives at No. 17's island and Goku flies off to look for him, but the island is pretty big and Goku can't sense No. 17's ki. Thankfully, before too long there's a big explosion, and Goku follows it to discover No. 17 battling a group of heavily armed men.

No. 17 easily disposes of the men, and Goku flies in and greets him. Though they've never met before, Goku recognizes No. 17 because his eyes look just like No. 18's. For his part, No. 17 knows Goku's voice and various other things about him. It turns out the armed men are poachers, and when more show up, No. 17 asks Goku to lend a hand if he's not too busy.

Before long all the poachers are taken care of, and Goku wonders what they were after. No. 17 explains that they want Minotaur horns to sell for a high price. No. 17's main job here is actually to protect the Minotaur, a purple bull-like creature. Originally gentle, the Minotaur has been hunted by humans to the brink of extinction. In fact, the specimen on the island is perhaps the only one left, and understandably it has become rather violent.

No. 17 recalls how in the past he set out to kill Goku because of Doctor Gero's orders, but ended up being absorbed by Cell and so never actually met Goku. Now Goku wants to test out No. 17's current strength, since he needs strong allies.

Goku powers up into his regular Super Saiyan form and the two start to spar. No. 17 holds his own, though he's momentarily distracted when he almost knocks Goku into the forest. Goku is surprised by how strong No. 17 is, and No. 17 replies that he hasn't just been sitting around all these years.

But Goku hasn't been sitting around either, and transforms into Super Saiyan Blue. He hadn't planned on using this transformation against No. 17, but No. 17's been holding back some of his power too.

The two are now high up in the sky, suitably far away from the forest for No. 17 to give it his all, and resume their battle. Goku fires off a Kamehameha, but No. 17 blocks it with his energy barrier. The two fly around trading blows, but when they crash into the ocean near the island No. 17 abruptly halts their fight so that they won't damage the island.

No. 17 figures that if they had continued he probably would have lost, since Goku still hadn't been taking the fight serious, but Goku believes No. 17 also had power to spare.

The two relax by a campfire, and No. 17 reflects that if the Dragon Balls hadn't brought him back to life, he wouldn't have his family. It turns out his wife and three children (two of which are adopted) live elsewhere, since he moved to this island as part of his job. He shows Goku a picture, and asks what Goku really came here for.

Meanwhile at Capsule Corporation, Beerus starts to take a nap after eating. He tells Whis and co. to wake him in an hour so that he can eat some more. This might be his last chance to eat, so he's going to make the most of it!

Back at the island, Goku has told No. 17 about the Tournament of Power, but No. 17 refuses. His job pays pretty well, so he's not interested in any prize money.

Besides, poachers could attack the island while he's gone. Goku offers to have Trunks and Goten guard the island, saying that they're strong, but No. 17 says his job takes more than just strength.

Now desperate, Goku pleads with No. 17 that everyone's fate hangs in the balance. Despite Gohan's advice, Goku tells No. 17 the truth: if they lose the tournament, their entire universe will be destroyed.

Yet even this fails to sway No. 17, who stoically figures that if everyone gets wiped out at once, that's just the way things go. Still, he'll pray for Goku and co. to do their best.

Out in space, an alien ship approaches Earth. The crew have come for the Minotaur and other rare animals...

Only 31 hours and 40 minutes remain until the tournament!

Production

Top: Rough pan sketch from Toei Animation Philippines[6][7]
Bottom: Stitched pan corrected by Naoki Tate

Toei Animation released a promotional video[8] on 14 April 2017 to herald the return of "Andoroid" [sic] No. 17. The PV is a montage of footage from Dragon Ball Z featuring No. 17, accompanied by the following text:

The mightiest Artificial Human, who once was created to defeat Goku will have a miraculous encounter… Artificial Human No. 17 joins the fray in the Tournament of Power!!!! After a decade-plus, his power, his speed, everything is now Super!!!!
~His power, surpassing the ultimate, is now revealed~[9]

No. 17 had previously appeared in arc promotional material, and he made a brief cameo at the end of the arc's debut episode.

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.
