"Earth Destroyed!! The Initial Boo's Nefarious Strike" is the one hundred and fifty-seventh episode of Dragon Ball Z Kai (the international version of the Japanese animated television series Dragon Ball Kai) and the fifty-ninth episode of "The Final Chapters", the international branding for the series' Majin Boo arc. The episode debuted in the United States on Cartoon Network's Toonami on 07 April 2018.

Synopsis

Kaiōshin tells the story: during the last battle with Majin Boo, the West and North Kaiōshin were killed, while the South Kaiōshin (the most muscular one of all) was absorbed. The muscular Boo was the form he reached by absorbing South Kaiōshin. And now Boo has reverted to the true Majin Boo which Bibbidi created, evil itself. The now heartless Boo immediately destroys Earth. Though Goku and Vegeta escape to the Kaiōshin Realm via teleportation, they are unable to save Gohan and the others, and the Earth is reduced to space dust. Vegeta berates Goku for saving Satan and Dende before Gohan and the others. Meanwhile, Boo teleports around destroying planets and then appears on the Grand Kaiōshin's planet, where Kuririn and co. are!
