Synopsis

Goku visits the Turtle Hermit to invite him to be one of the remaining two team members. However, Oolong tells him the Turtle Hermit isn't at home, because he's been invited to be an honorary instructor at Tenshinhan's dojo. Meanwhile, a mysterious beautiful girl calling herself "Yurin" visits the Tenshin-style dojo. This thrills the Turtle Hermit, and he invites Yurin to enter the dojo. Goku shows up, and after a hasty greeting he asks Tenshinhan to enter the Tournament of Power, since he is there as well, but Tenshinhan refuses because of his students' training. Meanwhile, Yurin smiles evilly at Tenshinhan's students and pulls out a talisman, which she infuses with demonic energy. Soon after, Tenshinhan's disciples begin to riot...?![1][2][3][4]

Summary

Goku visits Kame House to try and recruit the Turtle Hermit, but Oolong informs him that the Turtle Hermit's off visiting Tenshinhan. It turns out that Tenshinhan has a dojo now, with lots of students, and the Turtle Hermit has been invited over as an honorary teacher.

Right at that moment, Tenshinhan is instructing his students in how to concentrate their ki, though his students have a hard time with this until Tenshinhan performs an example himself. Off on the side, the Turtle Hermit is dismayed that all the students are men.

As luck would have it, outside a young woman approaches the dojo. Reading the "Tenshin Dojo" sign (with some difficulty), she's delighted to have finally found that "three-eyed bald guy". Chiaotzu escorts her in, and she introduces herself as "Yurin". Though she claims to have no prior martial arts experience, she wants to start training because she hears it's good for one's appearance.

Tenshinhan tells her to go train somewhere else, since his dojo is only for serious martial artists, but the Turtle Hermit is more than happy to give her some lessons...He takes her off to another room, though Yurin seems dead-set on Tenshinhan.

Goku arrives at the dojo, and Tenshinhan dismisses his students for the day so that they can chat (they haven't seen each other since the match against Universe Six). Goku is impressed that Tenshinhan has so many students, though Tenshinhan downplays it. Still, Goku can tell Tenshinhan has kept up his training, and wants to recruit him and the Turtle Hermit for the Tournament of Power.

Elsewhere, the Turtle Hermit has gotten Yurin into a martial arts uniform...which just so happens to feature a mini-skirt. Yurin has already got the Turtle Hermit sized up as just a dirty old man, but suddenly he starts talking about removing her "evil heart" and before long is chasing her around. Yurin pretends not to know what he means, but secretly wonders if he's somehow found out her "true objective". Having ditched the Turtle Hermit for the time being, she pulls out a paper talisman...

Back with Tenshinhan and Goku, Tenshinhan politely declines Goku's offer. Though entering the tournament might serve as good training, he can't leave his students behind, and he's not interested in the prize money. Goku's upset that now he won't be able to get ten fighters, but their conversation is interrupted by one of Tenshinhan's students banging on the door. Some of the other students are rampaging through town!

Off in Universe Six, Cabba has come to Caulifla's hideout. There he tries to recruit her for the tournament, surrounded by Caulifla's various underlings (mostly thuggish men, as well as one meek-looking woman). At first Caulifla flatly refuses, but Cabba persists and shows off his Super Saiyan form. He offers to teach her the transformation if she's curious, and notes how Caulifla's older brother Renso thought she had great potential. Though she continues to belittle Cabba, her interest has been piqued.

Back on Earth, Tenshinhan's students have been taken over by some type of sorcery, signified by the talismans affixed to their foreheads, turning them into mindless rampaging zombies. Though Chiaotzu tries to remove these talismans with his physic powers, it's no use. Yurin rejoices: all this hubbub will ruin the reputation of Tenshinhan's dojo!

It turns out Yurin is the mastermind behind all this. She reveals how she trained with Tenshinhan at the Crane School dojo back in the day, though he would always ignore her. So she vowed to get revenge and has been training ever since, even learning sorcery along the way. Now that she's found him again, it's finally time to get even.

Figuring that Tenshinhan isn't used to handling women, the Turtle Hermit opts to take Yurin on himself while the others work on removing the talismans from the students (apparently they can be peeled off by hand). While Yurin is no match for the Turtle Hermit, he gets distracted when she falls over and exposes herself. Yurin uses this opening to stick a talisman on his head, taking control of him.

Tenshinhan takes on the possessed the Turtle Hermit but has trouble, so he uses his old Shiyō-Ken technique to grow two extra arms. The Turtle Hermit counters with a blast of lightning (probably his old Bankoku-Bikkuri-Shō technique) and a Kamehameha. Goku steps in to save Tenshinhan, and takes over the fight.

On the sidelines, Yurin is still performing her magic spells and hand gestures to keep the Turtle Hermit under control. Goku is impressed with the Turtle Hermit's ki, and thinks the old man has been hiding his true power. He must have been undergoing incredible training in secret! Though Goku wants to fight more, he doesn't have much time to waste, so he fires off a Kamehameha while Chiaotzu uses his powers to stop Yurin from performing her magic hand gestures.

The Kamehameha hits the Turtle Hermit dead-on, and his talisman disintegrates. Though defeated, Yurin vows to continue training and grow even stronger, so Tenshinhan offers to let her train at his dojo. Though her motives aren't the best, he's impressed with her determination.

First though, he has her apologize to the villagers. Tenshinhan now says he will enter the tournament after all. That way, he can use the prize money to repair the damage his students caused to the village. Goku is delighted to finally have all ten team members assembled.

Only eight hours left until the Tournament of Power!

Availability

This episode has been released in numerous countries and languages around the world in both streaming and physical formats.

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.
