	When Ginyu the frog saw Freeza's spaceship arrive on Earth, he saw his opportunity come at last. Ginyu tricked Freeza's new second, [[Tagoma]], into speaking the word "change". After securing Tagoma's body, Ginyu recounted his story to Freeza and demonstrated a new fighting pose. He was able to draw out Tagoma's full potential beyond what Tagoma himself had managed. [[Tenshinhan]], [[Muten Rōshi]], [[Piccolo]], and Gohan were easily dispatched, but after Gohan transformed into a [[Super Saiyan]], Ginyu was outmatched. Once this became clear, Gohan declared the fight over, which prompted Freeza to interfere. Ginyu wished to continue fighting, but Freeza would not allow it. ~~([[Dragon Ball~~ Super ~~Episode 22~~\|~~Super Episode~~ 22~~]])~~ Ginyu prevented others from interfering as Freeza tortured Gohan; as he was about to deliver the killing blow, Goku and Vegeta arrived and Goku deflected the blast. Goku and Vegeta were surprised to learn that Ginyu had returned; Vegeta told Ginyu that if he had stayed a frog, he would not have had to die. Ginyu was then killed by Vegeta, making him the fifth and final member of the Ginyu Special Force to be killed by Vegeta. ~~([[Dragon Ball~~ Super ~~Episode 23~~\|~~Super Episode~~ 23~~]])~~		When Ginyu the frog saw Freeza's spaceship arrive on Earth, he saw his opportunity come at last.
