Destruction God Beers Arc:

Episode #1:
•Son Gokuu—using a new transformation that maintains his black hair—battles a mysterious red-and-black clad foe. Both fighters seem to be easily able to avoid the other’s blows. Finally, the two engage in a massive beam struggle.
•Opening
•Four years have pass since the defeat of Majin Buu. Son Gokuu is working as a farmer, but idly dreams of his next big fight. Gokuu wants to go do some training with Kaiou-sama, but Chi-Chi forbids it until the harvest ends.
•Title Card
•A Part: Gokuu asks Blooma to create a way of making the crops grow faster, but Blooma tells him being patient is a part of training to and to not bother her over something so trivial. Gokuu agrees half-heartedly. Blooma reminds Gokuu that they will be seeing each other again tomorrow at her birthday party but much to her chagrin he asks her how old she will be turning. Blooma yells as Gokuu until he leaves. After Gokuu leaves, Blooma returns to working on a youth-restoring cream, comically vain as ever. Meanwhile, Destruction God Beers awakens after a forty year slumber. Beers learns from his attendant—Whis—that Freeza is dead and most of the Saiyans are also now dead. Beers recalls a dream he had of a ‘Super Saiyan God’, which sounds similar to the ‘Super Saiyan’ that supposedly defeated Freeza. “Whis, we’re going to the Kaiou of the North’s to investigate…and play some video games!”
•B Part: The Kaiou of the North Galaxy receives a message from Whis, attendant of Destruction God Beers, that he will ‘soon’ be coming over to play the latest sequel to their shared favorite fighting game franchise. Knowing that Gokuu will soon be coming over to train, the Kaiou desperately worries that Son Gokuu will annoy Beers and set him on a rampage across the Seventh Universe, something the Kaiou might get demoted for not preventing. At Capsule Corp, Blooma is wondering what to offer as the grand prize for the bingo tournament at her birthday party tomorrow. Thinking back to her current project—a youth-restoring cream—Blooma curses Gokuu for asking about her age. Maybe she should just use the Dragon Balls instead, like she originally thought? But then she wouldn’t be able to exercise her genius to the world. Finally, Blooma realizes she could offer the Dragon Balls themselves as a prize and tells Trunks to go and collect them for her. Meanwhile, Gokuu in a seemingly stunning show of patience goes about silently tending to the Son family crops, confusing even Chi-Chi and Goten. Mother and son set about multiple scenarios about what happened earlier in day while Gokuu was left alone after he had been so set on leaving the job behind. Finally, after two imaginary scenarios, Mister Satan arrives with a suitcase full of money. Now the Sons won’t have to work to keep living. “But I wanted Gokuu-sa to learn the value of a real job!” “But Chichi-san,” counters Mister Satan, “Now your social status will go up anyway!” This changes Chichi’s mind instantly and Gokuu gleefully teleports to the world of the Kaiou of the North Galaxy.

Episode #2:
•While searching for the seventh Dragon Ball, Trunks comes across the Pilaf Gang, Pilaf, Shuu and Mai.
•Opening
•Years ago the Pilaf Gang asked Shen Long to restore their youth…but he made them too young and now they are just kids.
•Title Card
•A Part: Trunks takes a liking to Mai and saves the trio from an elaborate set of traps in the dungeon. Realizing that Trunks is “Incredibly strong, just like ‘that’ Son Gokuu!” (“ano Son Gokuu!”) the triumvirate agrees to buddy up with him so as to steal all seven Dragon Balls when he isn’t looking. Wanting to impress Mai, Trunks invites the three back to his mom’s big birthday party. Meanwhile, an intense battle occurs between two video game characters across an old television screen. The Kaiou-sama of the Northern Galaxy sweats profusely. If he loses on purpose, Beers-sama will know and get mad! If he wins Beers-sama will blame him for taking advantage of how rusty he is for having not played in so long! Finally, Gokuu appears and distracts Kaiou-sama long enough for Beers to take advantage and deplete the rest of his health bar. Kaiou-sama is at first scared to death, but soon realizes that Beers was not annoyed. “Too dull, old man!” Beers teases. A panicking Kaiou cannot stop Gokuu from asking who Beers and Whis are. Whis explains himself and his master, which naturally excites Gokuu. Gokuu challenges Beers to a battle, but Beers has a question first: “Do you know who the Super Saiyan God is?” Gokuu and Kaiou are puzzled by this question. Gokuu shows his Super Saiyan forms to Beers, but he isn’t much impressed.
•B Part: Super Saiyan 3 Son Gokuu finds that he is unable to touch his foe. Beers knocks Gokuu down with ease and lectures him on using a transformation that consumes so much stamina. “Work on getting all that dormant power accessible in your normal state!” he chides. Beers and Whis bid the Kaiou-sama of the North farewell and take off for Earth.

Episode #3:
•The Kaiou-sama of the North contacts and warns Vegeta, who is training in the gravity room created by Doctor Brief, of Beers’ arrival, “If he gets mad the entire planet will be wiped out!” Vegeta wonders to himself where he has heard that name before.
•Opening
•A Part: Meanwhile, Blooma holds her birthday party high in the skies above on her flying island: the Blooma Kai (‘Blooma Realm’; modeled after the Heavenly Realm). Vegeta arrives after being late to the party, but has luckily arrived before this ‘Beers’ character. Finally thinking he can take a moment’s rest, Vegeta feels a chill run down his spine when he hears a familiar voice: “Yo, Vegeta, long time no see!” The man who made even his father cower in fear has appeared before him.
•B Part: A flashback to the day that Vegeta first met Beers. Afterward, Beers mingles politely with the party-goers, passing himself off as an old friend of Vegeta so as to enjoy the food. Vegeta runs around in a frantic manner, doing everything he can to prevent the unsuspecting party attendees to enrage Beers. When Majin Buu refuses to share fortune cookies with Beers the Destruction God snaps and mercilessly pounds him into mush. Ready to finish the job, Beers sends a giant ball of ki down upon Majin Buu. At the last second Mister Satan leaps in front of Majin Buu to shield him, ending the episode on a cliffhanger.

Episode #4:
•Opening
•A Part: [“Sabre Dance” by Aram Khachaturian plays through the entire A Part] Super Saiyan Vegeta shields Mister Satan and Majin Buu by kicking the ki sphere up into space. Vegeta tries futilely to calm Beers but is only knocked aside. Trunks launches toward Beers with Son Goten in pursuit. “Stupid brats!” Piccolo is not far behind. Eventually, Trunks, Goten, Piccolo, Tenshinhan and Artificial Human #18 are engaged in a battle against Beers. Gohan reluctantly steps in and transforms into a Super Saiyan, radiating a ki mighty enough to attract his friends’ attention. Beers handedly defeats Gohan with juudou before using his body to incapacitate his friends.
•B Part: Vegeta is now all that remains between Beers and the destruction of Earth. Blooma interrupts the fighting to yell at Beers for ruining her forty-fifth birthday party and slaps him. Not amused, Beers slaps her back, nearly killing her. Enraged, Vegeta’s Super Saiyan aura explodes and for once Beers seems shocked. “Vegeta is even stronger than Gokuu now!” exclaims the Muten Roushi, remembering how Gokuu showed him his full power while sparring the other day. Vegeta unleashes a barrage of attacks on Beers before finally exhausting his stamina. Beers is none the worse for wear. “We’re done for!” gasps a Vegeta short on breath. Finally, Son Gokuu arrives: “Beers-sama! Destroy Earth and you’ll never get to fight the Super Saiyan God!” Gokuu exclaims.

Episode #5:
•Beers halts his attack when Gokuu offers that by using the Dragon Balls they should be able to ask Shen Long about the Super Saiyan God.
•Opening
•A Part: Shen Long is summoned and displays quite a fear of the Destruction God. Shen Long explains that a Super Saiyan God can be created by infusing a Saiyan with the ki of five other pure-hearted Saiyans. Chi-chi realizes that this means that they are short one Saiyan but Gohan and Videl reveal a surprise they were planning on keeping for after Gokuu and Vegeta arrived: they’re pregnant! Since a Saiyan’s ki is growing within Videl her own ki should be saturated in Saiyan ki. Together, Vegeta, Gohan, Trunks, Goten and Videl pour Saiyan ki into Gokuu and he becomes a Super Saiyan God.
•B Part: Gokuu battles Beers as a Super Saiyan God, but displays difficulty in utilizing his new power. The battle spreads across the planet, but the Blooma Realm follows along with ease. Beers scolds Gokuu as he pounds on him mercilessly. Chichi and the others worry that Gokuu is about to be killed but Piccolo comments that—in a most Gokuu way—it is almost as if Beers is training Gokuu. As the battle heats up the two combatants move up into outer space. Gokuu’s ki grows stronger, rushing to the surface as his battle with Beers heats up. Finally, Gokuu appears to be even with Beers. Nevertheless, after finally drawing blood, Gokuu realizes that the battle is just getting started as Beers ki takes on a frightening new taste: Beers is finally having fun.

Episode #6:
•Gokuu begins using ki blasts for the first time since transforming into a Super Saiyan God, but Beers neutralizes his blasts with his own. Meanwhile, Piccolo and the others begin to notice something happening to reality around them. Whis indicates that the battle between two rough god ki is generating shockwaves that are spreading throughout the universe. If things don’t calm down soon, the planet will be destroyed. Gokuu realizes what is happening to the universe due to his poor command of his ki. Resolving to sharpen his focus, Gokuu enters a race against time to refine his ki control and prevent the destruction of the universe.
•Opening: Gokuu and Beers do battle.
•A Part: Finally, Gokuu matches Beers blow-for-blow and cancels out the shockwaves. This excites Beers only more and the Destruction God sends Gokuu flying back down to Earth. Realizing that Beers is preparing to destroy the Earth with his signature giant ki sphere, Gokuu struggles to get back on his feet. “Is my stamina gone already?!” With Beers’ attack coming straight at him, Son Gokuu’s life flashes before his eyes. Everything comes back to wanting to be the best. Suddenly, Gokuu stands tall and unleashes the mightiest Kamehame-Ha of his life, sending Beers’ attack right back at him. Gokuu flies into space and confronts Beers, calling it frustrating that he could only make it this far because of help from others. This amuses Beers, but he must still receive an answer for the insult brought against him: “Admit defeat, Son Gokuu.” Beers offers no reward in exchange for such an admission. Finally, Gokuu acquiesces, “You win, Beers-sama.”
•B Part: Silence, for the longest time. Finally, Beers knocks Gokuu back down to Earth, where he is soon protected by his friends and family. “It’s time for me to destroy the Earth,” Beers somewhat musingly purrs. Silence, still. Before emotional pleas can break out from his would be victims, Beers fires his blast at the ground…but it can only destroy a single rock! “Whoops, used up all my ki screwing around. Come, Whis, we’re going home.” Beers turns and takes his leave. Confusion defines the scene as the crowd ponders what they just experienced. Finally, Gokuu bursts into laughing in realization and the others soon follow.

Golden Freeza Arc:

Episode #7:
•Eight days have passed since Son Gokuu became a Super Saiyan God and did battle with Destruction God Beers. Gokuu has returned to training, via meditation, to better control his ki by doing image training. Gokuu visualizes himself battling Piccolo Daimaou, Freeza, Cell, and Majin Buu (Gohan-absorbed). Chichi, of course, wants Gokuu to get back to farming their daikon, but that seems a little far off at this rate.
•Opening:
•Meanwhile, Vegeta learns that Whis is visiting with Blooma on a date.
•Title Card
•A Part: Vegeta tries to convince Whis to train him, but Whis is more interested in trying new foods. Finally, Vegeta sets about showing off his own culinary skills. Impressed, Whis accepts Vegeta as his student.
•B Part: Vegeta and Whis return to Beers’ planet. Vegeta’s training begins immediately: he must clean their giant castle wearing weights that require his ki to be at its maximum simply to move a little. Meanwhile, Gokuu gains the momentum in his image training and uses Super Saiyan God to defeat his image foes.

Episode #8:
•Gokuu completes his current round of training in the wilderness, prompting earthquakes and flooding throughout the planet.
•Opening
•A Part: Some months have passed since the battle with Beers. Videl is due to deliver any day now. Later, Gokuu decides to visit Vegeta for some sparring…but according to Blooma, Vegeta is off training with Whis-san! “Eh?!” Gokuu desperately searches for Beers, Whis or Vegeta’s ki, but cannot find it. Vegeta hasn’t been home to visit in a month which is annoying Blooma: “I have needs, too!” Gokuu desperately asks Blooma if she has any way of getting in contact with Whis, to which she answers but one: presenting something delicious while yelling his name really loudly. It works! But before Gokuu can run off with the newly arrived Beers, Whis and Vegeta a phone call from Chichi cuts in: “Videl-san is goin’ into labor!”
•B Part: Chaos ensues as Gohan, Videl and Chichi try to find a parking spot at the hospital. Gokuu’s group tries to find the right hospital room, but doctors are in short supply due to recent natural disasters! Finally, Piccolo-san appears in scrubs and delivers the baby in the middle of a crowded hospital commissary (Beers and Whis love the food). Baby Pan-chan is born! “We should have another one, Vegeta!” comments Blooma. Vegeta shoots back with “I have training to finish!” “Whis-san, please train me, too!” Blooma laments her predicament, but supplies Vegeta with a new battle jacket and gray under suit to replace his currently shabby suit. “Ara, since Vegeta-san has new armor, perhaps Gokuu-san should, too?” Whis transforms Gokuu’s dougi into a new red one, too. Gokuu and Vegeta bid the others farewell and return to Beers’ planet.

Episode #9:
Opening
A Part: Gokuu and Vegeta begin training. Gokuu finds himself one step behind Vegeta at everything they do thanks to Vegeta’s head start. Nevertheless, Gokuu is Gokuu and quickly catches up.
B Part: Sixteen years earlier, news of Freeza’s death hits his empire. Chief Advisor Sorbet quickly takes command to try and maintain order. In the following days it becomes clear that Freeza’s empire is doing poorly in quelling resistance groups on the worlds they have conquered. When news of Freeza’s death leaks the resistance groups become even harder to control.

Episode #10:
Opening
A Part: To help control the increasingly rowdy worlds under the command of the Freeza Empire, Sorbet assigns his right hand man and strongest warrior, Tagoma, to recruiting mercenaries to bolster their forces. Tagoma comes across a man named Shisami. The two eventually fight as a way of greetings and Shisami accepts the offer, for a high price.
B Part: With Shisami’s help Sorbet retakes and maintains several worlds. Shisami and a reluctant Tagoma quiz Sorbet on what his long-term plan is. Maintaining the empire without an overwhelming force like Freeza is exceedingly difficult, to say nothing of trying to grow the empire. “It’ll also become hard for you to afford the fee for us mercenaries,” adds Shisami. Sorbet wants to stick to Freeza-sama’s plan to conquer the universe, but at the rate things are going…wait a second, wasn’t Freeza-sama after the wish-granting Dragon Balls? Perhaps they could restore Freeza-sama to life? But nobody knows where the new Namekian home world is! And Earth is protected by that damned Saiyan, Son Gokuu. “It can’t be helped,” Sorbet adds, “We’ll focus on developing and acquiring technologies to help increase our soldiers’ combat power. After that, we’ll go to Earth and use the Dragon Balls to revive Freeza-sama!”

Episode #11:
One year after the battle with Beers, Sorbet and Tagoma go to Earth. The duo threatens the Pilaf Gang into giving them the Dragon Balls, just when they are about to make their wish they are interrupted by Sorbet and Tagoma. Sorbet asks Shen Long to revive Freeza, but Shen Long can only revive him to the form he was in last alive, a bunch of bits-and-pieces. Sorbet agrees and once Freeza’s tiny pieces rain from the sky on the group of five. Sorbet then revives Freeza’s Papa, Great King Cold, with the second wish and Shuu asks Shen Long for a bunch of money with the third. Sorbet and Tagoma then take their fallen kings back to the empire to be healed.
Opening
A Part: Back in the empire, Freeza’s body is restored and he is reverted to his first form. Cold is also healed. Once finished, Freeza swears revenge on Son Gokuu and the Saiyan that killed him, but first he will train, something he has never done before. Although miffed about dying, Cold isn’t particularly interested in being subjected to the torture he experienced in Hell again, but Freeza isn’t having any of it. He will undergo training so Hellish it will make his time in Hell pale in comparison.
B Part: Freeza, wrapped up in a cocoon tied to a tree in Hell, is tortured by dancing and singing angles and stuff animals playing instruments. As the music grows more and more suffocating Freeza finally wakes from his nightmare after having been knocked unconscious by attacks by Tagoma, Shisami and Papa. Huffing and puffing, Freeza rushes forward at all three.
Ending: Freeza and his forces train.
Sometime later, Galaxy Patrolman Jako arrives at Capsule Corp. After admonishing Doctor Brief for calling him ‘Zako-kun’, Jako tells Blooma that the evil space Emperor, Freeza, has somehow been revived!

Episode #12:
Jako tells Blooma of how Freeza’s forces have recently started re-growing their empire, now faster than ever! Word on the street is that now Freeza is coming to Earth with one thousand elite soldiers to extract revenge on the Saiyans. Blooma informs Whis-san of this, so he, Beers, Gokuu and Vegeta return to Earth.
Opening
A Part: Beers is a little miffed to see that Freeza has been revived, considering how much of a “snotty brat” he was and tells Gokuu and Vegeta to hurry up and defeat him. Gokuu is excited to get a chance to fight Freeza again and wonders if he’s gotten any stronger since being revived. Gokuu recruits Kuririn—now a police officer—after Kuririn engages in a car chase with bank robbers. Reluctant at first, Kuririn remembers how useless he was when Beers was threatening the planet, and agrees to join up with Gokuu. Kuririn has Artificial Human #18 shave his head and dons his dougi once again. Last time, #18 got to show off how cool she was by protecting him and Marron-chan. This time he wants to do the same for her. As Kuririn flies off to join up with Gokuu and the others again, Artificial Human #18 says to herself: “How cool…”
B Part: Sensing Freeza’s ki growing closer, Gokuu, Vegeta, Piccolo, Gohan, Kuririn, Tenshinhan and the Muten Roushi travel to the outskirts of North City. Blooma, Jako, Whis and Beers also appear. Beers has no intentions of involving himself in Gokuu’s mess, but the potential to see Freeza get slapped around is too good to pass up. When Kuririn asks where Goten, Trunks and Majin Buu are, Blooma explains that Majin Buu is in a deep sleep and Goten and Trunks aren’t the sort to take a fight seriously, so they’ll just get in the way. [“Ride of the Valkaries” by Richard Wagner plays throughout the remainder of the B Part] Freeza’s rather massive ship lands and he and one thousand soldiers exit the ship. With a single blast, Freeza obliterates North City before the Dragon Team can react. Gokuu and Freeza banter for a bit. Freeza tells his men to cause as much destruction as they please, but to leave Son Gokuu to him. Freeza transforms into his fourth form right off the bat, destroying his hover chair in the process. Nervous, Kuririn, the Muten Roushi, Piccolo, Gohan, Tenshinhan, Jako and Piccolo face down one thousand of Freeza’s elite soldiers. Meanwhile, Vegeta faces off with the Great King Cold.

Episode #13:
The Great King Cold laments to Vegeta how his son’s obsession is just going to get him into trouble again, “We’ve got much better things to do with our time.”
Opening
A Part: [“Ride of the Valkaries” by Richard Wagner plays throughout the remainder of the A Part] Meanwhile, the others do battle with the top members of Freeza’s army, now refined by years of training and new weapons technologies. It’s a bit of a struggle, especially for the rusty Kuririn. Cornered, Kuririn is about to be hacked in half by one of Freeza’s men!
B Part: Piccolo engages in battle with Shisami. Although Piccolo has the superior combat techniques his opponent boasts both experience and raw physical strength. The rusty Son Gohan, meanwhile, struggles against the technique-adept and dexterous Tagoma.

Episode #14:
Gokuu and Freeza clash. Freeza comments that he is surprised how powerful Gokuu has become without the need to transform into a Super Saiyan. Of course, he still has power in waiting, too.
Opening
A Part: Meanwhile, Kuririn is saved from decapitation by Jako, who is quite surprised at the strength of the Earthlings. The Muten Roushi’s techniques and command of ki give him an advantage over the less refine martial arts and weapons-based combat abilities of Freeza’s men, but eventually their greater numbers chip away at his stamina and focus and he begins to accumulate damage quicker. Meanwhile, Tenshinhan observes that nobody dares to attack Blooma because of how close she is to Beers and Whis. Just how infamous is Destruction God Beers?
B Part: Vegeta and Cold continue their talk in between bursts of fighting. Vegeta comments on how both he and Freeza have become quite a bit stronger since they last came to Earth. “Speaking of which, where is that young man that greeted us last time?” “Oh, he returned to the future.” “What?!” Meanwhile, Freeza and Gokuu find themselves mostly even. Freeza’s ki control has improved since last time, definitely, but it’s his increased hand-to-hand ability that is definitely proving to be the biggest challenge to Gokuu. “I guess we’ll have to stop holding back and play our trump cards to see who the best is really!”

Episode #15:
Piccolo and Super Saiyan Gohan struggle against Shisami and Tagoma respectively. They’re both facing their worst possible type of opponent.
Opening
A Part: Finally, backs together, Gohan and Piccolo realize they can just switch foes! Gohan, who specializes in raw power, faces off with the brutal crushing strength of Shisami, while the technique and speed-oriented Piccolo faces off with the tricky, dirty Tagoma. The fights become much more even after the switch, but Shisami and Tagoma are not slow to adapt to the sudden change in dance partners.
B Part: Kuririn, Jako, Tenshinhan and the Muten Roushi find themselves at the end of their ropes against the brutally numerous Freeza soldiers. Surrounded, the four work in an off-the-cuff combination play based on the Muten Roushi’s lead and are able to take out a large portion of Freeza’s forces at once. Half a mile away, Freeza takes note of his soldiers’ failures and tells Shisami and Tagoma to back off. After the two lieutenants have gotten a safe distance away, Freeza explodes the ground beneath the others. Gokuu narrowly saves Kuririn, Jako, Tenshinhan and the Muten Roushi from death thanks to his Instantaneous Movement. “Useless trash,” Freeza comments with an exaggerated curling of his lips. Shisami, Tagoma and Sorbet look at each other, conflicted. “Now then, allow us to get back to it. Behold the form of your death!” Freeza erupts in a golden aura and transforms into a gold and purple form: “The naming is a little tacky, but perhaps we can call this ‘Golden Freeza’?” Freeza’s ki places the others under a lot of pressure. Gokuu follows Freeza by transforming into a new transformation, too. It’s his usual Super Saiyan form, but with a blue hair and aura! “I suppose you can call this ‘Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan’,” Gokuu states. The episode ends with the two charging toward one another.

Episode #16:
Vegeta battles Cold while Gokuu battles Freeza. The two intense battles shake the planet feverishly. Gokuu loses ground against a Freeza who is now completely charged with unrestrained mania. Nevertheless, even at a disadvantage, Gokuu is exceedingly calm. Meanwhile, Kuririn and the others heal their injuries with senzu as they view the battle.
Opening
A Part: Freeza’s ki becomes increasingly erratic. Cold breaks from his battle with Vegeta and deals a little damage to Gokuu through a sneak attack blast through Gokuu’s left backside. Gokuu recovers enough to gain some distance from the father and son. Freeza is furious at Cold for intervening, but Cold admonishes him for playing around so much. Now he’s losing because he hasn’t learned to control his new form well enough.
B Part: Cold unveils his own ‘Golden’ form and begins battling Gokuu in Freeza’s place. Vegeta transforms into a Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan and begins to battle Freeza. Freeza’s rage reaches a boiling point and finally explodes: Freeza blasts Cold through his chest from behind and begins furiously pounding on him. Sorbet and the others are horrified. Finally, Freeza blows Cold to bits and returns his attention to the shocked Son Gokuu.

Episode #17:
Opening
A Part: Vegeta reluctantly offers to help Gokuu, but Gokuu just doesn’t like the idea of fighting together, especially not against Freeza. Vegeta calls him an idiot. The battle becomes worse and worse for Gokuu, who just doesn’t have Freeza’s raw power and genetic genius. Even Gohan and the others consider joining in to save the pummeled Gokuu. Finally, Freeza pins down Gokuu and prepares to obliterate him and the Earth with a close-range blast, but suddenly, a blast erupts through his side!
B Part: Sorbet has shot Freeza with his ring weapon! Everyone is flabbergasted, especially Freeza! Shisami and Tagoma double-team Freeza, pounding him and blasting him in his state of shock. Finally, Freeza reverts to his normal form. “W-why?!” he gasps. Sorbet explains that Freeza-sama not only killed a thousand of their best men, but his own father, to say nothing of being about to destroy the Earth and them along with it! “You’ve lost your way, Freeza-sama! The empire is doomed to fall under your rule!!” Combining their attacks, Sorbet, Shisami and Tagoma return Freeza to Hell.

Episode #18:
Opening
A Part: Gokuu is none-too-pleased by Sorbet robbing him of his battle with Freeza, but in his current injured state cannot move very well. Vegeta considers attacking, but Beers stops him, displaying amusement at Freeza’s downfall. Sorbet and the others pick up their remnants and fly off into space, washing their hands of the curse of Son Gokuu. “Ah!” exclaims Jako suddenly, “This means the Galaxy Patrol doesn’t have to worry about Freeza now! I wonder if we’ll give them a medal or something…” but Blooma reminds him that those three will probably run Freeza’s empire on their own now.
B Part: At the after party, Gokuu laments his unresolved battle with Freeza. Beers tells Gokuu that it’s his own fault for not accepting help, but Whis proposes that “Letting the others help him would have been even worse for a fellow like Son Gokuu-san”. Meanwhile, Kuririn reunites with his family and Mai reunites with Trunks, telling him of the scary affair with Freeza’s men.
Ending:
In Hell, Freeza’s torture by the angels and stuffed animals resumes: “NOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

Destruction God Champa Arc

Episode #19:
Huffing and puffing, fur wet with sweat, a more plump-looking being of Beers’ race marches through the jungles on Beers’ planet. “Come now, Champa-sama,” attends his attendant, a female being similar looking to Whis, “We mustn’t dawdle. Who knows when Beers-sama will enter hibernation?” The one apparently known as Champa-sama groans audibly.
Opening: Champa trudges through the jungles, looking ever increasingly exhausted.
A Part: Gokuu and Vegeta train together on Beers’ world. Whis coaches the two while drinking tea with the Kaiou-shin of the Tenth Universe, Gowasu, while his apprentice, the former North Kaiou, Zamasu, serves. Zamasu asks Gowasu if it is really alright for humans and gods to be mingling as such. Whis laughs, stating that Gokuu-san and Vegeta-san provide Beers-sama with entertainment he hasn’t enjoyed in millions of years. Zamasu inquires about how they even met these two humans. After hearing that Gokuu even survived a battle with Beers, Zamasu challenges Gokuu to a sparring match to see what is so special about him. While it seems to be a good match, in the end Gokuu is victorious even without having to transform. Gokuu again notes that Zamasu is really strong for a Kaiou, being even stronger than the Kaiou-shin of the Seventh Universe! “Let’s fight again sometime!” Zamasu hides his embarrassment, but before he can reply he is cut off by the arrival of an unexpected duo.
B Part: Sixth Universe Destruction God Champa and his attendant, Whis’ elder sister, Vados, trudge out of the jungles. Champa has arrived to have a food tasting battle with Beers! Champa becomes jealous of the food that Beers has access to from Earth and is even more envious when Vados tells him that their Earth no longer exists due to civil war destroying it. Champa challenges Beers to a martial arts match. Since they can’t fight without endangering their universes they’ll have five warriors from each fight in a special tournament. Whoever has the most men standing at the end of the tournament can have the Super Dragon Balls that Champa has gathered. “But just so you know: if I win I’m taking your Earth!” The tournament will be held in five days!
Ending
Inside the Room of Spirit and Time, Son Gokuu and Vegeta train through sparring. Outside, Mr. Popo tells Dende that it was a good idea to rebuild the Room of Spirit and Time, even if the two day wait left Gokuu and Vegeta with only three days to train. A single year inside the room is only a single day outside, which means the Saiyans can accomplish three years of training in just three days. Dende adds that he just wishes he could have stocked it with enough food for Piccolo and Majin Buu, who have also agreed to participate, to get some training done in there, too. Meanwhile, Beers recruits “the mightiest foe I have ever faced in the Seventh Universe, other than Whis, of course.”

Episode #20:
Back in the Tenth Universe, Zamasu thanks Gowasu for allowing him to fight Gokuu. Gowasu thinks this helped Zamasu gain a deeper understanding of humans, and relieved some of the distrust he feels toward them. Zamasu says he is embarrassed to realize how inexperienced he is, which Gowasu says is proof that he has grown. Gowasu asks Zamasu for another cup of tea, which Zamasu obediently pours. With his back turned to Gowasu, a sinister smile spreads across Zamasu’s face.
Opening
A Part: The day of the tournament has come! Everyone gathers at Capsule Corp to travel to the planet where the tournament in being held. Gokuu and Vegeta are the last to arrive, both now sporting beards. The Seventh Universe and its spectators arrive at the site of the tournament. Gowasu and Zamasu are also in attendance. Zamasu recalls how Beers ordered him and Gowasu to come to the tournament, implying that they were also complicit in facilitating this event and if the Zen-Ou catches them they would get in trouble, too. Zamasu questions Gowasu about whether or not this is appropriate behavior for a god, but Gowasu brushes Beers-sama’s fear-mongering off: “It’s unlikely that the Zen-Ou would erase us or be unnecessarily cruel; probably.” Meanwhile, the fighters of the Sixth Universe are introduced. Champa cannot remember Hit’s name, so he continually calls him ‘Shit’ (シット).  Majin Buu is disqualified from the tournament after being shown unable to even write his own name on his name-tag thanks to Champa citing a rule that Vegeta himself came up with previously. Shrugging, Majin Buu goes to sleep. The Seventh Universe must now somehow win with only four contestants.
B Part: Gokuu battles Botamo, a being with incredible bounciness. When blunt force fails to hurt Botamo, Gokuu attempts to throw him out of the ring and attacks indirectly, but Botamo has long overcome that sort of strategy. Finally, Gokuu focuses his ki into a ‘piercing punch’, but the sudden sharpening of his fist and the reverberating of Botamo’s body enacts damage to Gokuu’s right fist and arm. Gokuu wins the first match, but now must hide his injury.
Ending

Episode #21:
Gokuu’s next opponent…is Freeza?!
Opening
A Part: Gokuu battles Frost, a warrior from the Sixth Universe of the same race as Freeza. At first Gokuu seems to have the advantage, but Frost soon reveals his wartime experience has taught him to detect when his opponent is injured. Gokuu soon begins to strain his body in his attempts to cover up his earlier damage and Frost takes advantage of that by transforming into his third form, which specializes in defense and raiding large groups of enemies. Gokuu soon realizes he runs the risk of hurting his left hand, too. Gokuu raises his base form’s ki to its uppermost level to try and finish off Frost quickly with a ring-out, but Frost uses the explosive energy from transforming into his fourth form to avoid the ring-out.
B Part: Seeking to end the battle quickly, before Gokuu unveils any more surprises, Frost uses his secret poison hidden in his wrist. Gokuu passes out almost immediately and Frost is declared the winner. Piccolo steps up to face Frost and reclaim the Seventh Universe’s lead. Piccolo knows he’s at a disadvantage against Frost’s newly risen ki and physical speed, but shedding that armor-esque third form has also reduced his defense. Piccolo goes for a blitzkrieg to end the battle quickly and uses his various techniques and demon arts to shock-and-awe Frost. Finally, Piccolo wraps up Frost in his elongated arm and prepares to defeat him with his Makankou-sappou, but…
Ending

Episode #22:
…Frost uses the same poison barb hidden in his wrist to inject Piccolo with poison, knocking him out. Now the score is 2-1 in favor of the Sixth Universe!
Opening
A Part: Jako notices the weapon Frost has been hiding and calls him out on it. Under threat of death by Champa, Frost admits that he’s harboring a concealed poison barb. War has taught him that there are no cheap tricks in combat, especially when one’s life and responsibilities are on the line. As such, Frost stands his ground and refuses to accept any sort of disqualification. This gutsy display wins over Champa and he stands by his player. Beers isn’t particularly sympathetic given that his Seventh Universe’s Earth is on the line and counters that adhering to the agreed upon rules of no weapons is also in line with Frost’s argument. After all, this will mean that Vegeta will have to fight four opponents in a row, Beers argues. Gokuu asks “What about Monaka?” only to be told to “Shut up!” Finally, Vegeta says he will fight Frost, no matter the challenge he will face as a result. Vegeta raises his normal ki to its upper limit and skillfully matches Frost blow-for-blow, even dodging Frost’s poison barb. “But how long can this last?” Piccolo wonders aloud.
B Part: Vegeta breaks off Frost’s arms so that he can use neither, but it turns out that there’s a barb hidden in Frost’s tail, too! Vegeta is struck on the cheek, but since the poison is not injected into him he manages to avoid the full effect of the poison and sends Frost flying outside of the ring. Although it was only a small bit of poison, Vegeta and the others figure it’s only a matter of time before the poison kicks in and effects Vegeta. “Vegeta-san will have to win these next three matches quickly,” Whis notes.
Ending

Episode #23:
Magetta steps into the ring to battle Vegeta next.
Opening
Title Card
A Part: Magetta’s lava-based food makes his body incredibly hot, thus making physical attacks unwieldy. However, the poison spreading through Vegeta’s body is chewing through his ki quickly, so if he’s going to last very long he’ll need to retain as much ki as possible. Of course, the barrier created by Whis and Vados to retain oxygen is so densely packed that the heat waves just bounce off of it and swarm around the planet, making everyone miserable. Champa interrupts the battle so that Vados can enact a second barrier, specifically around the ring. Beers argues that he’s just made it even harder for Vegeta to win! Champa retorts by asking if he wants to suffer through the heat, which quiets Beers down. Meanwhile, Vegeta begins tearing up the tiles from the combat ring and throwing them down at Magetta to try and knock him into the ground below, but it’s not doing much good. Finally, Magetta begins spewing out a stream of lava, with Vegeta dodging. There’s not much he can do to attack and all of the dodging is only draining Vegeta’s ki further. Backed into a corner with no way out except through, Vegeta transforms into a Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan and hits Magetta in a flash of blue lightning.
B Part: Champa’s group is shocked by Vegeta’s transformation. None of them, even Cabba, knew that Saiyans could transform. Zamasu is especially shocked—perhaps ‘horrified’—that a mere human would be capable of reaching and developing ki in the dimension and flavor of a god. With Magetta defeated and time running out, Vegeta hurriedly tells the next opponent to get into the ring. Cabba steps up to the challenge only to soon find himself at the mercy of a ruthless Vegeta. Although time is running out, Vegeta still wants to try and test Cabba, so he threatens to kill Cabba’s family.
Ending

Episode #24:
Vegeta plays the coldblooded villain to draw out Cabba’s strength. The Saiyan finally transforms into a Super Saiyan.
Opening
Nevertheless, Cabba is still helpless against Vegeta and loses.
Title Card
A Part: An exhausted Vegeta is handedly pummeled by Hit, the mightiest assassin of the Sixth Universe with a career spanning one thousand years. Vegeta uses the last of his strength to slam a close range blast into Hit’s chest, but there is no visible damage done, only ash left behind. Finally, Vegeta passes out. All that remains is Monaka.
B Part: Beers panics. “If Monaka fights…” Whis casually reminds Beers that Gokuu and Piccolo were cheated out of their victories. Although the poison has mostly worn off they’re both going to be exhausted, so both would be needed to fight Hit. Beers argues that he ought to get compensation for Champa’s dirty tricks, so Champa by way of demands from Hit agrees to allow Gokuu and Piccolo to team-up to fight Hit. “I kinda don’t like it,” Gokuu mentions aloud, “But I need to try to save stamina so I won’t be able to use Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan”.  The duo of Son Gokuu and Piccolo Daimaou reunite in combat for the first time since the battle with Raditz! Using various martial arts techniques in rapid repetition, Gokuu and Piccolo force Hit to play a sort of game of tag that prevents him from fighting at his own pace. The tension grows thicker and thicker as the usually cold ace becomes less and less able to use his time-skipping abilities.
Ending

Episode #25:
Hit erupts in anger at how Gokuu and Piccolo are restraining him. Digging deeper than he has had to in centuries, Hit outsmarts Piccolo and almost knocks him out of the ring.
Opening
The once Daimaou is saved only by Gokuu, who uses his Instantaneous Movement to arrive just in the nick of time. “There’s no getting around it anymore,” Piccolo tells Gokuu, “You’ll have to use that ‘Super Saiyan Blue’”. “Hey, don’t change the name!” Gokuu counters, to which Piccolo retorts “Do you want me to bite my tongue?!” Nevertheless, Gokuu agrees and speeds up his own countdown by transforming.
Title Card
A Part: Taking in the sight and feel of Gokuu’s Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan, Zamasu clenches his fist in the stands so tight that his nails cut into his palm and incites bleeding. Gowasu notices this and believes that Zamasu is merely excited to see so many skilled fellow martial artists. In reality, Zamasu curses Son Gokuu for embarrassing him so in front of the other gods. Gokuu and Piccolo try to resume their strategy, but now that Gokuu is so much faster than Piccolo they’re out of synch, which makes it even easier for the newly warmed-up Hit to disrupt their rhythm and capture the pace. With his right arm still pretty much useless for channeling ki or punching particularly hard, Gokuu is at an even greater disadvantage when trying to match Hit by himself. With their strategies proving only a nuisance and the clock ticking fast, Gokuu decides to rely on his last trump card.
B Part: Gokuu leads Hit into cornering him against the barrier. Thinking he has Gokuu cornered, Hit punches straight at the barrier, but Gokuu disappears and Hit’s lead fist cracks against the barrier. Using his Instantaneous Movement, Gokuu has fled behind the barrier without Hit even noticing! Gokuu teleports behind Hit and unleashes the mightiest Kamehame-Ha that he can through his feet at close range. The blast pushes Hit against the barrier, practically crushing him and forcing him to take the brunt of the attack. “That’s cheating!” Champa exclaims, “Vados, get rid of that barrier!” The barrier disappears, thus giving Hit more room to push back against the Kamehame-Ha. Finally, the two colliding ki explode, but when the dust clears Hit is still standing—rather, levitating in the air—while Gokuu has dropped to his knees and returned to his normal form. Hit smirks, only to vomit blood right afterward. “Is it a draw?!” asks Blooma. “Don’t underestimate me,” calls Piccolo from afar. A spiraling, piercing light erupts through the ash mark left on Hit’s chest by Vegeta’s final attack. “Shit!” Champa shrieks in terror as his ace drops to the ring floor, unresponsive.
Ending

Episode #26:
Hit is unresponsive after taking a Makankou-sappou to the chest.
Opening
“Wait, did we have a no-killing rule?” asks Champa before proceeding to pull out an obscenely large rule book. Tossing a dress coat over his shoulder and covering his eyes with a black fedora, a suit-clad Beers walks away from the stands after lighting a cigarette. “Prepare some nice flowers, Whis—for the funeral.”
Title Card
A Part: Champa immediately tackles Beers and begins pulling at his cheeks, with Beers returning the favor. The two squabble and throw insults while the others assess the situation. Although the Seventh Universe is declared the winner, Gokuu is disappointed that he couldn’t defeat Hit on his own. In fact, even if they had both fought in top form he gets the feeling he would’ve lost. Interrupting Gokuu’s pouting, a cute voice splits open the heavens. “Aww, it was getting to be so much fun!” Three figures descend from the split in the heavens. It’s…”Zen-Ou-sama!” Beers and Champa quit their squabbling and present themselves alongside Whis, Vados and the Kaiou-shin. The Zen-Ou bypasses the lower gods and walks straight toward Gokuu, much to Zamasu’s abject and obvious horror. “That was real fun!” Gokuu thanks the Zen-Ou and the duo brews up a camaraderie that both shocks and frightens Beers and Champa, while twisting Zamasu’s face into greater and greater disgust. The Zen-Ou admonishes Beers and Champa for holding a tournament between universes without his approval, but says it was a lot of fun to watch, so he’ll let it slide. “We should do this with all of the universes!” Gokuu agrees with the Zen-Ou, but first he needs to train. The Zen-Ou bids everyone farewell and returns home, but not before telling someone to tend to Hit’s injuries. “Shit, he’s still alive?!” Champa is horrified. That means he can’t argue a victory in his name due to murder. Beers laughs and says it’s time to use the Super Dragon Balls.
B Part: The Nameless Planet that the tournament is being held on is revealed to actually be the final Super Dragon Ball, only covered in debris. Super Shen Long is summoned and is revealed to be massive in size. Super Shen Long asks for a wish to grant and Beers speaks it, but since the two are speaking the language of the gods nobody knows what he’s asked for. Beers claims he simply wished for a comfier bed, but in reality he asked for the restoration of the Earth of the Sixth Universe. Later, Gokuu bids the fighters from the Sixth Universe farewell and promises to have a proper fight with Hit the next time they meet.
Ending
In the Kaiou-shin Realm in the Tenth Universe, Zamasu has black-and-white flashes of still shots recounting what he has seen in the past five days. The existence of humans with the power of gods and the Super Dragon Balls: these things play through Zamasu’s mind as he pours tea for Gowasu-sama. “Son Gokuu, huh,” Zamasu ponders in his heart, “I know it, humans really are…”

Future Trunks Arc:

Episode #27:
Future Trunks runs through the city carrying fuel for the time machine, ever cautious of being followed.
Opening
A Part: Finally arriving at the location of Future Blooma and Future Mai, Trunks and the others load the time machine with fuel; however, before the trio can travel to the past they are attacked by a shadowy figure.
B Part: Before the Trunks and the others can travel to the past they are attacked by a shadowy figure. The figure grabs Future Blooma and kills her, shocking Trunks. Mai convinces Trunks to get into the time machine while she provides a distraction, but when the shadowy figure causes the ground below to begin collapsing Mai falls to an apparent death. Trunks, enraged, attacks the figure, now revealed to be…Son Gokuu? This Son Gokuu is dressed in black, however, and is referred to by Trunks merely as ‘Black’. Trunks is thoroughly thrashed by Black and forced to swallow his pride and retreat to the past using the time machine.
Ending Credits

Episode #28:
Nightmarish images of Black killing Blooma and Mai haunt Trunks. Suddenly, the swordsman from the future awakens, surrounded by faces both familiar and foreign. Trunks awakens, sees Gokuu (wearing his casual clothes and now shaven after the tournament), and erupts in rage, experiencing a PTSD-esque flashback. “Black! Black!!” he screams.
Opening Credits
Gokuu and Vegeta (also shaven and casually dressed) subdue Future Trunks.
Title Card
A Part: Blooma and the others finish explaining that Gokuu eventually had his life restored after the battle with Cell. Blooma asks “Who’s this ‘Black’ guy you keep screaming about?!” Future Trunks gives a short explanation of what has happened since he last saw the others: for the past year a man who looks like Son Gokuu has been attacking the Earth, slowly but surely killing off the humans. While Trunks has fought him on numerous occasions, Black continually escapes only to return more powerful each time. Now Trunks is on the losing end of their battles. Gokuu Black appears in the past thanks to the power of the Time Ring. Gokuu battles Black, who truly does share his appearance! Much to his surprise, Gokuu finds that Black is able to match his speed and power, which he is keeping deliberately at the level of Super Saiyan 2 (this is depicted by an overhead shot of Gokuu powering up while scenes of his battle against Majin Vegeta and Beers play in place of the ground). Gokuu raises his normal form’s ki to his old Super Saiyan 3 level (the same power up animation is reused, but now in place of the ground is scenes of Gokuu fighting Majin Buu and Beers as a Super Saiyan 3), now less burdened by the strain of the transformation, but Black easily follows up with his own unearthing of his ki. Beers asks Whis if he sees what he’s seeing, and Whis confirms: Black’s fighting style is very familiar. “We’ll have to investigate,” claims Beers. Eventually, the Time Ring’s power expires and Black is forcibly drawn back into the future.
B Part: “My, my, what a surprise!” opens a jovial Gowasu, “Zamasu, please pour our guests tea!” Beers, Whis and Gokuu visit the Kaiou-shin of the Tenth Universe, Gowasu. Gokuu asks Zamasu how his training is going. Zamasu replies—with his back turned—that he believes he will be ready to reveal a big ‘renewal’ soon. After seeing the Time Rings, Beers and Whis are content to leave, as they cannot miss eating dessert back at Blooma’s house. On the trip back to Earth, the trio discusses what they know of Zamasu and his fighting style. Gokuu admits that Zamasu and Black do have a similar feel to them, both in battle and out, but that doesn’t mean they’re in cahoots. Besides, while similar, his ki is not exactly the same as Black’s. Nevertheless, the way his hand went numb when he hit Zamasu in their sparring match several months ago reminds Gokuu of when he fought Beers. Beers is annoyed at being lumped in with Zamasu, insisting that he is on a far higher level. However, Gokuu thinks that Zamasu still has room to improve, and may someday grow to be as scary a god as Beers.

Episode #29:
Vegeta trains Trunks in the Room of Spirit & Time. Super Saiyan 2 Trunks struggles to land a hit on Vegeta.
Opening Credits
Back on Earth, Vegeta trains Trunks in the Room of Spirit & Time. Having witnessed Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan in his training with Vegeta, Trunks begins searching for his own way to greater power.
Title Card
A Part: Meanwhile, Gowasu trains Zamasu in the role of a Kaiou-shin, but Zamasu's contempt grows more and more, leading him to interfere in the development of a species and kill Babarians. Gowasu scolds Zamasu for this and revokes his Potara.
B Part: Vegeta (bearded and in his new Blooma-made armor), Trunks (bearded with long hair) and Gokuu (in his Whis dougi, but still shaved) arrive in Trunks’ timeline. Before they can lure out Gokuu Black the three are attacked by resistance members. Trunks explains the situation to the resistance members and they lower their weapons. The gang returns to the underground civilian community and find that Mai has survived! Trunks is incredibly happy to see that Mai has survived. It turns out that Future Yajirobe saved Mai and helped her back to health! Vegeta hands over capsules full of food and supplies to the hungry civilians. Spirits lifted, Trunks decides to leave the base and head to the surface, where he can lure out Black. On the surface, Trunks lures out Gokuu Black by raising his ki. This time, Vegeta wants to fight Black! Vegeta and Black trade blows, with Vegeta proving he has no need to transform to overwhelm Black. Neither Gokuu nor Trunks like the feeling they are sensing from Vegeta’s overwhelming lead, though. Finally, Vegeta’s body freezes up just as he is about to deliver a crushing blow, giving Black the opening to stab him through the chest with his ki blade. “That technique!” Gokuu cries out. Trunks spots the one who paralyzed his father: “Why is a Kaiou-shin…?!” Gokuu is flabbergasted “Zamasu?!”
Ending Credits

Episode #30:
A Part: “I knew it, humans are…irredeemable!” A grand musical montage of Gokuu Black’s birth begins set to the “Hallelujah Chorus” by Composer George Frideric Handel begins. After experiencing humiliation in front of the gods of the Sixth and Seventh Universes, Zamasu set about enacting his revenge. Sometime after the Sixth & Seventh Universe Exhibition Match, Zamasu kills Gowasu and takes his Potara and Time Rings. First traveling to the Future, Zamasu uses the Super Dragon Balls to switch bodies with Son Gokuu and then uses his body to kill Son Gokuu’s family and the Gokuu now in his body. After that, Zamasu searches for a timeline where Gokuu does not exist and comes across Trunks’. There, ‘Black’ convinces his doppelganger to aide him in killing the Kaiou-shin of that parallel world after killing Gowasu. With the gods now dead none can challenge them. Now, together, the two declare that the Zero Human Extinction Plan will begin!
Title Card
B Part: Furious over what has happened to Vegeta, Trunks transforms into a new form, ‘Super Saiyan Ikari’, which Gokuu notes ‘feels’ like a perversion of Super Saiyan Grade Three and Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan. Trunks pummels Gokuu Black some more while Gokuu tries to kill Zamasu with A Kamehame-Ha. Thinking Zamasu dead, Gokuu returns his attention to Vegeta, but is stabbed through the back and blasted severely by Zamasu. Zamasu reveals that thanks to the now-destroyed Super Dragon Balls he has become immortal! Future Mai and Future Yajirobe distract Zamasu long enough to rescue the injured Gokuu and Vegeta. Zamasu notices that Trunks is about to kill Black, so he decides to allow his prey to escape and teleports himself and Black to safety.
Ending Credits

Episode #31:
Meanwhile, Zamasu and Gowasu discuss philosophy while Present Zamasu serves tea. Beers, Whis and the Kaiou-shin of the Seventh Universe continue to watch closely. Gowasu's not oblivious to the cruelty growing in his pupil. Worse, he believes he can reason with Zamasu and thus shows no outward sign of irregularity. Finally, Gowasu drinks his cooled tea, but suffers a painful death when Zamasu stabs him in the back with a ki saber.
Opening: No theme music plays. The camera is placed on a close-up of the disturbingly discolored Gowasu’s face. Gowasu’s expression is one of shock. Slowly, the visuals and sound seem to play backward until Gowasu’s face returns to normal and he rises again, just before drinking his tea.
A Part: Whis rewinds time to before Gowasu's death so that Beers can confront and kill Zamasu. Gowasu is shocked at the development and Beers mentions in an off-the-cuff manner that he probably should’ve let Gowasu die for being such a sentimental, contemptible fool, but Whis reminds him that it would only cause him a headache later when the Grand Priest found out.
B Part: Trunks returns to the past to seek Piccolo’s aide. Piccolo is currently at Gohan’s house, much to Trunks’ discomfort. Since returning to the past Trunks had wanted to avoid drawing his master’s doppelganger into his battle, despite his selfish desire to draw strength from him. Seeing his mentor, Son Gohan, again, Trunks comes to the realization that it isn’t wrong for him to seek comfort from him. Trunks resolves to not tell Gohan of why he has come back to the past and instead sneaks away from the Gohan house with Piccolo.
Ending: A montage of scenes between Gohan and Trunks plays alongside the Ending theme.
Post-Ending: As Trunks and Piccolo fly a safe distance away from Gohan’s house to avoid drawing attention, Piccolo asks what he has in mind. “Mom told me a long time ago of a technique used to seal away the Piccolo Daimaou and God.” Shocked, Piccolo replies “C-could you mean…?!” With a nod, “Yeah, the MaFuu-Ba!”

Episode #32:
Gokuu and Vegeta, finally back at full strength (they had to share the only Senzu Karin was able to spare) hunt down Gokuu Black and Zamasu. This time, Vegeta begins his battle with Black as a Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan. Black is as unctuous as ever and unveils that thanks to all of his battles up until this point he has finally managed to draw out ‘this body’s’ full power. Black transforms into a pink-haired Super Saiyan form. “If you are a Saiyan with the power of a god, then I am a god with the power of a Saiyan! Behold, Super Saiyan Rosé!”
Opening:
A Part: While Vegeta and Black go at it, Gokuu (still in his normal form) basically slaps Zamasu around. “You might be immortal, but that don’t mean you’re stronger!” After some due slapping, Gokuu notices Trunks and Piccolo hiding within the forest near Black and Zamasu’s mountain vacation cabin. Gokuu synchronizes his and Zamasu’s battle so that Piccolo can effortlessly catch the fallen god in his green demon-sealing gale. Zamasu shrieks in horror as he is sealed within an electric rice cooker.
B Part: Noticing that Zamasu has been sealed, Black teleports to Gokuu, Piccolo and Trunks’ location and knocks them aside. With a simple stomp, Black crushes the electric rice cooker and frees Zamasu. “Damned humans, I will not be made to feel helpless!” [Insert Song: “Yoake no Michi” from the 1975 animated series “Flanders no Inu”] Zamasu removes one of his Potara and triggers a merger with Gokuu Black. As Gokuu Black and Zamasu’s bodies fly towards one another they exploded into silhouettes of pink and purple light respectively. These silhouettes—retaining the outlines of their original forms—embrace one another as the Zamasu silhouette grabs the Gokuu Black silhouette by the head and passionately kisses it in a rotating camera shot. The two silhouettes of colored light merge into one before bursting into purple and pink petals. These petals fall to the ground and are quickly decomposed into the soil before rapidly growing into a majestic tree. From that tree is borne a single fruit that rapidly ripens into…Merged Zamasu the Immortal God! Everyone powers up to their full strength and attacks Merged Zamasu. “Even a four-man team is no use!” cries Trunks. “Damn, even if I hadn’t used so much strength on the MaFuu-Ba!” fears Piccolo. “Damn it all, if we had Potara, too!” concedes Vegeta. [Insert Song Ends] Suddenly, Beers, Whis, Gowasu and the Seventh Universe Kaiou-shin appear. “Kakarrot!” shouts Vegeta. “Shit, cain’t be helped!” In a blinding light, Gokuu and Vegeta rush over to the Kaiou-shin and take a Potara from each. Clipping Potara onto one of their ears, the two Saiyans merge once more into Vegetto (bearded)!
Ending:

Episode #33:
Vegetto transforms into Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan.
Opening
A Part: Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan Vegetto and Merged Zamasu do battle. Finally, the two are caught up in a storm of ki that explodes.
B Part: The dust settles, revealing that Vegetto and Zamasu have both split back into Gokuu, Vegeta, Zamasu and Gokuu Black. Normally, the Potara merger between Kaiou-shin is permanent, but since neither merged being was completely a god the merger ended after an hour. Gowasu asks his students if they won’t return to the light. The duo, of course, refuse and Gowasu finally turns his back on them. Trunks steps into the spotlight and challenges Black to a final duel. An exhausted Black is hesitant, but Beers offers that he won’t intervene, no matter the outcome. “I’ve played my part already.” Finally, Black accepts. It’s Super Saiyan Ikari versus Super Saiyan Rosé! Trunks finally overwhelms Black in combat, forcing Zamasu to leap in the way of one of Trunks’ stabs. Zamasu, however, finds that his injury won’t heal! It seems that by merging into Merged Zamasu and ‘ceasing to exist’ he lost his immortality! Zamasu sacrifices his dying self to give Black more ki. Furious, Trunks, so incredibly in-tune with the people of Earth, draws on the will power of those humans remaining on Earth. Pouring this ‘hope’ into his blade, Trunks slices Gokuu Black in half and finally ending his reign of terror.
Ending:

Episode #34:
Zamasu and Black’s spirits draw on the latent power of the Potara and merge into a terrible storm of death that sweeps across the universe.
Opening:
A Part: The Zen-Ou, who has been bored since all of the gods of this timeline died, teleports himself to Earth after sensing the source of the weird disturbance. Gokuu begs the Zen-Ou to stop Zamasu. The Zen-Ou reckons that there’s really no point in this timeline without having anyone he can play with, but Gokuu tells him he knows of someone who he would love to play with. Mulling it over, Zen-Ou decides to stop the destruction of the universe.
B Part: Back during the Sixth Universe & Seventh Universe Martial Arts Tournament, Zen-Ou asks Gokuu to be his friend and play with him. Gokuu, finding the idea to be kind of a pain, promises Zen-Ou that he’ll find him a great friend. Back in the present, Gokuu presents Present Zen-Ou to Future Zen-Ou and vice-versa. The two take a quick liking to each other and Gokuu breathes a sigh of relief. Later, on Earth, Future Trunks and Future Mai bid farewell to Gokuu and the others, thanking them for all their help. Now they’re off to rebuild their timeline.
Title Card: Trunks’ sword stuck into the ground, basking in sunlight among the dead city of the future.
Ending: Future Trunks and Future Mai meet for the first time during the peaceful days before Gokuu Black’s appearance.
Post-Ending: “Wow, you want me to become your apprentice, Kaiou-shin-sama?!” Long before his heart had become corrupt by negative experiences with humans, Zamasu was approached by Gowasu to be his successor. “Please, call me ‘Gowasu’, Zamasu-kun.” As Gowasu watches Zamasu celebrate with his pet pig the camera zooms in on his smiling face before cutting to the present day Gowasu drinking from his tea cup. Gowasu sets his tea back onto its plate and looks forlornly at the great tree under which he sits.  As the leaves fall around him Gowasu has but one word, “Zamasu…”

Episode #35:
A Part: There’s a big science convention being held and Gokuu (shaved) is working as a bodyguard. However, Arale, the android creation of the infamous ‘Dr. Slump’ is running amuck!
B Part: Gokuu and Vegeta must team up to free Arale-chan from the control of the nefarious Ghost of Dr. Mashirito!

Episode #36:
A Part: Rain falls at a gloomy funeral. Son Gokuu (Whis dougi, shaved) is dead! Son Gohan and Son Goten retrace their father’s steps to discover the killer’s identity!
B Part: The killer is…Hit! The legendary assassin from the Sixth Universe has come to the Seventh Universe to fulfill a bounty that was placed on Son Gokuu’s head. The Son Brothers make off for the Sixth Universe to confront the man they suspect: the legendary assassin, Hit!
Ending

Episode #37:
Opening
A Part: The Son Brothers decided to draw out Hit by leaking rumors that he failed to assassinate Son Gokuu!
B Part: Hit arrives on the rainy scene of a trap set by the Son Brothers. Even a blitzkrieg by the Sons does nothing. Finally, on death’s door, the battle is interrupted…by Son Gokuu (still wearing his funeral outfit)! Yes, he survived the assassination attempt! At the last possible second he figured out the secret to Hit’s new killing technique and was able to just barely avoid a fatal blow. After a day or so in a death-like state, he awoke! Hit and Gokuu resume their match. Gokuu proves that he wasn’t bluffing and unleashes ki into Hit’s finger when he strikes Gokuu’s heart. Hit’s attack is neutralized and his nervous system thrown out of whack by Gokuu’s precise shock. After trading a few blows, Hit realizes that both he and the still injured Gokuu are now at a standstill and will have to continue their battle some other time.
Ending

Universe Survival Arc

Episode #38:
Son Gokuu (Whis dougi, beard), Son Gohan (green track suit and Golden Freeza arc hair), Majin Buu, Mister Satan, Beers and Whis are at a tournament arena. The Grand Priest declares the beginning of the Tournament of Power Exhibition Match between the Seventh and Ninth Universes will now begin.
Title Card:
A Part: As Majin Buu steps into the ring to face Basil of the Ninth Universe he remembers the events that guided him here. Son Gokuu and Son Gohan visited him, asking him to participate in an exhibition match. Buu agrees and Mister Satan tags along to keep him in check. [“Uranus” by Gustav Holst beings playing] Back in the present, Buu and Basil do battle. [“Uranus” by Gustav Holst ends] After a sordid battle, Buu comes out the winner.
B Part: Gohan adjusts his glasses as he steps into the right to battle Lavenda. Looking back at his dad on the sidelines, Gohan remembers how Gokuu came to him, asking him to participate. Hesitant, Gohan finally agrees after Videl tells him that he should spend some time with his dad. Returning to the present, Gohan does battle with Lavenda. Although he hasn’t trained since the battle with Majin Buu seven years ago, Gohan still has naturally overwhelming strength. Nevertheless, Lavenda is tricky and able to make full use of Gohan’s rusty battle instincts. Finally, Gohan erupts into a Super Saiyan and manages to reach a draw with Lavenda. Gohan promises to do better at the main tournament.
Ending: The new Opening used as the Ending.

Episode #39:
The sun rises and Son Gokuu begins another boring day of farming. Present and Future Zen-Ou appear before Gokuu, thanking him for introducing them to one another. “But, that was, like, a year ago!” Gokuu proclaims, scratching his head in confusion. Present Zen-Ou asks Gokuu why he’s so down and Gokuu explains that he wants to fight someone strong! He’s bored, especially with Vegeta too busy helping Blooma get ready for the birth of their baby to train with him. Suddenly, Gokuu remembers about the tournament between all of the universes that he and Present Zen-Ou agreed to hold someday. Both Zen-Ou light up with excitement and agree, but then Future Zen-Ou realizes he doesn’t remember making this promise. “Oh, I know,” counters Present Zen-Ou.
Opening:
Gokuu helps Gohan out of the ring, remembering the conversation with the Zen-Ou earlier this morning. Next up, Gokuu must face Bergamo, the strongest of the Ninth Universe’s trio.
Title Card:
A Part: Before the match begins, Bergamo asks the Zen-Ou why it is they are fighting this tournament. When the Grand Priest eventually reveals that the losers of the tournament with have their universes ‘erased’, everyone reacts with shock. Gohan remembers learning this from Gokuu after they left his house, placing his desperation to defeat Lavenda in a new context. Bergamo begins to use his sharp tongue to bad mouth Gokuu and get the other gods to think poorly of him. Bergamo immediately leans that this sort of tactic doesn’t affect a fellow like Gokuu, though, so Bergamo must rely on martial arts to win. Eventually, Gokuu is forced to use Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan to overpower Bergamo.
B Part: With Bergamo defeated the exhibition match ends. Before Gokuu can exit the ring he is attacked by a cloaked figure. This figure removes his cloak and reveals himself to be Toppo, leader of the Pride Troopers from the Eleventh Universe. Toppo finds Gokuu’s nonchalant attitude abhorrent and wishes to “show him justice”. Beers comments that Toppo is the sort to find himself in an early grave one day. Gokuu accepts, unveiling his newest evolution of Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan: Gokuu can now transform into Super Saiyan Blue without losing stamina, allowing him to switch back and forth between that form and Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan so he can control the rhythm of the battle. Toppo has difficulty adapting at first, but after bringing his ki to the forefront he is able to knock Gokuu off balance and control the pace of the battle. Gokuu realizes he is in a pinch and decides now is as good as any time to attempt to use ‘that’ that both he and Vegeta have struggled with. Before Gokuu can take his risk the Grand Priest calls an end to the match; they’ll have to settle things at the Tournament of Power proper.
Ending
The Grand Priest then divulges that the tournament will begin in forty hours and last for forty-eight minutes as a single eighty man battle between the eight universes with the lowest human ranking. All of the defeated universes will have their universes erased! The tension rises…

Episode #40:
Kuririn (Majin Buu arc hair, Artificial Humans arc dougi) stares down Son Gohan atop Satan Tower as a downpour of rain silences every other sound.
Opening
The Tournament of Power is in medias res. As Kuririn and Artificial Human #18 (wearing her pink tracksuit) fight together against their set of foes they recall the events that led to them joining the Seventh Universe Team.
Title Card
A Part: Kuririn, #18 and Marron talk with Gokuu and Gohan in their living room. Gokuu wants Kuririn and #18 to join the team, but Gohan isn’t too sure. After Kuririn’s flashback there is a fast cut back to the beam struggle. From #18’s point of view, the audience is shown how Kuririn convinced Gohan and himself through a sparring match with Gohan that he was worthy of being on the team. After the flashback, Kuririn and #18 struggle to push back a ki bomb from an enemy until…Artificial Human #17 joins the fray!
B Part: Hours earlier, Artificial Human #17 is dealing with poachers trying to poach the rare beasts on the island he is charged with protecting. One of the poachers tries to escape by submarine but before #17 can stop him he is forcibly lifted out of the water by…a smiling Son Gokuu! Later, at night, #17 and his visitor crowd in front of a campfire. Gokuu explains why he’s visiting but #17 turns down the offer at first, inclined to let fate takes its course. Eventually, #17 asks what Son Gohan is doing. Artificial Human #17 changes his mind when he learns that Gohan is participating. “Son Gohan saved my life when he defeated Cell,” the cyborg reckons. After the flashback, #17 successfully helps push back the ki bomb and the three eventually knock their opponents out of the ring.
Ending
After defeating an enemy, Kuririn is attacked by Frost of the Sixth Universe. Artificial Human #18 saves Kuririn, forcing Frost to retreat for the time being, but the close-range explosion has left Kuririn mostly deaf!

Episode #41:
While training for the arrival of the Saiyans, Piccolo feverishly beats and scolds Son Gohan.
Opening
A Part: Piccolo watches Gohan’s (wearing the dougi created by Kibito in the Majin Buu arc, but still with his hair style from the Golden Freeza arc) back as he gives orders to the various members of the Seventh Universe Team. Parrying attacks from other universes, Piccolo wonders when Gohan’s tiny back grew so big.
B Part: Gohan approaches Piccolo about training him so as to help him regain his fighting senses before the Tournament of Power begins. There’s no time for the Dai-Kaiou-shin to draw out his ki out to the surface again, so he’ll have to focus on sharpening his mind and making the best use of Super Saiyan. Piccolo and Gohan run through various combinations and drills to give Gohan a playbook to borrow from and the sharpness to make up plans on the fly. Back in the present, Gohan, Piccolo, Muten Roushi, Tenshinhan and Kuririn successfully knock out several members of the Ninth Universe using Gohan’s commands. Piccolo comes to realize that the past is in the past.
Ending
After seeing off Trunks, Gohan thanks Piccolo for always supporting him up to this point. Piccolo declines the thanks, telling Gohan it is he who owes him for saving his life more times than he can count on one finger. “During Raditz-oji-san, Nappa, Freeza and Cell…does that not make less than five?” Piccolo, shy, hides his hands behind his back. In a focus shot, we see that Piccolo actually has four fingers, like in the original comic.

Episode #42:
Standing before his students, Tenshinhan (Beers arc outfit) declines Gokuu’s request to join the Seventh Universe Team.
Opening
A Part: The Muten Roushi (Jackie Chun outfit, minus the wig) recalls Tenshinhan’s (Beers arc outfit) struggle with abandoning his students to selfishly chase after Gokuu once again. After all these years Tenshinhan thought he had finally moved past his time with Gokuu, but now he’s been drawn back into Gokuu’s world!
B Part: Hours earlier, Vegeta declines to fight in the exhibition match before the main Tournament of Power. He doesn’t want to leave Blooma alone while she’s still pregnant (Gokuu comments “Boy, you sure must enjoy sex!”). He wasn’t there for Trunks, so he wants to be there this time. In the present, Vegeta (his Blooma devised outfit) battles Ribrianne and the other magical girls of the Second Universe. On the ropes, Vegeta recalls how he finally agreed to join the team. Hours earlier, Whis sped up Blooma’s pregnancy and magically teleported her and Vegeta’s daughter into her arms. “We’ll name her Bra!” With a safe birth achieved, Vegeta gets to training in the Room of Spirit & Time. Back in the present, Vegeta decides to finally use Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan; it’s the only answer against such powerful opponents, even if it means he’ll have to reveal his latest evolution so early on. However, before Vegeta can transform the three magical girls unleash a combination attack so fast and powerful that Vegeta could very well be knocked out of the ring!
Ending
Vegeta is saved from Ribriannne’s attack by…Freeza?! Why is he here? Wasn’t the tenth member Majin Buu?

Episode #43:
Footsteps and voices fill the air. “Gokuu, you’ve gotta be crazy to add him to the team!” Various rejections play over Gokuu’s feet, first as they walk on Capsule Corp floor, then the floor of Enma-Daiou’s palace, then the flower fields in Hell. Finally, Gokuu stops walking and the camera pans up to his devilish smirk as he says “Yo!” A cocoon hanging from a tree is shot in a rotating shot to reveal…Freeza, an incredible smirk of evil glee erupting as he senses the familiar presence. As can be read by his face, a plan is already forming in his head.
Opening: All shots of Majin Buu are now replaced with ones of Freeza.
Gokuu returns to Capsule Corp. after recruiting the last of his ten-man team to ill news: Majin Buu has fallen into another of his two month hibernations. Beers threatens to kill Majin Buu while he sleeps. The others are at a loss for what to do. Finally, Gokuu speaks up: “I got an idea!”
Title Card: The remains of the cocoon that held Freeza lying on the now dead grass in Hell.
A Part: Vegeta berates Freeza for interfering in his battle. Freeza makes an amused comment about being a team player. Watching Freeza and Vegeta’s conversation, Gokuu remembers the rest of his discussion with Freeza in Hell. Gokuu offers that he will restore Freeza to life if he agrees to fight in the Tournament of Power and they win. Freeza agrees. At the Tournament of Power, the rest of the Seventh Universe looks at Freeza with trepidation after he saves Vegeta from the fierce attack of the Second Universe.
B Part: Gokuu pulls Vegeta away from arguing with Freeza, trying to calm him down and remind him what is at stake. While the two walk away, however, they are cornered by the eight remaining members of the Ninth Universe. One-by-one, Gokuu, Vegeta and Caulifla take down the fighters. The three even combine ki beams to send the Trio de Dangers over the edge, officially knocking out all of the members of the Ninth Universe.
Ending
With all ten members of the Ninth Universe now overthrown the Zen-Ou erase the warriors, the Destruction God and the Kaiou-shin of the Ninth Universe from the ringside bleachers (the angel is spared). Everyone from the other universes express shock and dread! “Yeah, that could be us next,” Gokuu admits out loud.

Episode #44:
Cabba travels to Caulifla’s gang’s base. There he meets a Saiyan named Caulifla and her gang of rowdy Saiyans. Although initially skeptical of Cabba’s proposal, Cabba shows off Super Saiyan as proof that even more powerful guys are out there.
Opening
A Part: In the present, Caulifla and her protégée, Kale, fight various foes while cornered off from the rest of their team. Caulifla tells thanks to Cabba in her usual brusque manner before transforming into a Super Saiyan to up the ante against her opponents. Caulifla and Kale battle various fighters. Caulifla eventually begins to fight Gokuu, showing off her Super Saiyan 2 form! Kale, protective of her relationship with Caulifla, becomes enraged when she believes Son Gokuu has taken her ‘ane-san’ away from her and transforms into a large, muscular Super Saiyan form with a green aura and green hair.
B Part: Kale goes on a rampage, tearing up the combat ring even worse than it already was and knocking various fighters out of bounds. Gokuu contemplates using Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan to quell Kale, despite the risks of unveiling its power so early, but Jiren appears just in time to knock Kale unconscious with a well-placed punch. Hit and Caulifla prevent Kale from flying out of the ring and use the newly risen terrain and smoke to hide. Gokuu stares down with Jiren, preparing to fight.
Ending
As Jiren trades blows with Gokuu, he studies his traditional martial arts forms. Meanwhile, Toppo orders Pride Troopers Khaseral, Tupper, Zoiray, Cocotte and Kettol to take out Gokuu. They need to save Jiren’s strength for later on. Khaseral nods.

Episode #45:
Hours before the tournament, Caulifla is astonished by the power-up provided by Super Saiyan. Caulifla tries to convince Kale to learn the transformation, too. When Kale does attempt the transformation, however, she transforms into a rampaging Super Saiyan form with green hair and large muscles.
Opening
A Part: Hiding amongst the rocks, Caulifla props up Kale while remembering how she and Cabba eventually had to tire her out before she reverted to her normal form. Gokuu is knocked into the rubble next to Caulifla’s hiding spot by Khaseral, Tupper, Zoiray, Cocotte and Kettol, a five-man team from the Pride Troopers of the Eleventh Universe. Caulifla helps Gokuu fight the team off, but they’re outnumbered and overwhelmed by the tight teamwork of the Pride Troopers. Kale is eventually trapped in the Cocotte Zone, a barrier realm created by Cocotte. Meanwhile, Artificial Humans #17 and #18 arrive to help Gokuu and Caulifla. Zoiray and Khaseral agree to take out Caulifla and Kale first. Caulifla tries to defend the helpless Kale, but it overwhelms her attention-span and forces her breathing to the breaking point. Unable to help Caulifla as she so desires, Kale explodes in anger at herself and achieves a Super Saiyan form where she is both less hulking in size and in control.
B Part: Kale breaks through the Cocotte Zone. She and Caulifla team up to battle Khaseral, Kettol and Zoiray. The five engage in a beam struggle, but Kale digs deep to transform into her more muscular Super Saiyan form and overwhelm the three Pride Troopers. With those three knocked out of bounds, the Saiyan sisters do a fist bump before Kale passes out and returns to her normal form. Meanwhile, Cocotte seals herself in the Cocotte Zone to protect herself, but #18 simply lifts the orb-esque barrier up and tosses it out of bounds.
Ending
Hit battles Dispo from the Eleventh Universe, but Dispo can somehow attack Hit even when he uses his Time-Skip ability.

Episode #46:
Hit and Cabba greet one another before the Eleventh Universe team sets off for the World of Nothingness. Cabba asks Hit to lead the team, but Hit wonders aloud if Cabba wouldn’t be a better choice.
Opening
A Part: Hit continues to struggle against Dispo. Finally, with Cabba’s help, Hit discovers how Dispo is actually reacting before Hit can use his Time-Skip. Toppo rescues Dispo from a ring-out and the two disappear to recuperate.
B Part: The Muten Roushi battles and defeats Caway, Darkori and Ganos. Each battle wears him down until he nearly dies after defeating Ganos. Gokuu and Kuririn use a wave of ki to shock the Muten Roushi’s heart back to activity.
Ending
Gohan uses a series of punches and kicks to lift Botamo off of the ground, allowing for Piccolo to kick Botamo out of bounds. The duo’s celebration is cut short when a sniper begins targeting them! Piccolo loses a leg and arm and is forced to use his stamina-draining regeneration. If they can’t take out the sniper soon Piccolo will use up all of his stamina!

Episode #47:
The screen is black. Tenshinhan’s voice confidently washes over it, “Shishin no Ken!” During the Twenty-Third Tenka’ichi Budoukai Tenshinhan unveils his Shishin no Ken technique. This new technique allows Tenshinhan to create three copies of himself and attack from multiple angles, but Gokuu quickly figures out the technique’s weaknesses and uses it to overwhelm Tenshinhan. After the tournament, Tenshinhan admits to Chaozu that the Shishin no Ken was a failure. Chaozu counters, stating that it’s only because Ten-san’s so focused on using the technique for head-on attacks in one-on-one combat. Curious, Tenshinhan asks Chaozu what he means by that. “Well, how about…”
Opening:
A Part: Gohan and Piccolo deduce that the sniper targeting them is tracking them through their body heat after Piccolo sacrifices his arm to test their theory. Regenerating limbs is a clear drain on Piccolo’s stamina, which puts pressure on Gohan to locate their foe immediately. Tenshinhan, using his high-ground, assists the master and pupil through telekinesis. On reconnaissance, Tenshinhan locates Prum of the Second Universe—the source of the spheres that are sniping his teammates—but then notices that Prum is not the one actually sniping. No, the real sniper is in hiding, constantly changing his position. Prum and his spheres are merely a conduit for the ki blasts! Taking out Prum now would only drive the real sniper deeper into hiding; therefore Tenshinhan must wait it out.
B Part: Tenshinhan uses the ‘Shin Shishin no Ken’ to create an eleven copies of himself. While he has now split his power twelve ways he can make use of their eyes and bodies to hide among the rubble and draw out the enemy. While the main Tenshinhan observes from outside, the other eleven Tenshinhan play Whack-A-Mole, forcing Prum and the real sniper to attack. Each copy is blasted back down, but with each copy sacrificed, Prum and his shadow’s positions are solidified. Finally, Tenshinhan locates Hermila of the Second Universe and informs Gohan and Piccolo of his location. The Saiyan and Namekian duo ambush Hermila and knock him out of the ring. Prum tries to escape but is blocked off by twelve Tenshinhan. Prum manages to weather the storm of fighting twelve foes, forcing Tenshinhan to cease his Shin Shishin no Ken. As a result, though, this gives Prum the opportunity to blind Tenshinhan and escape back into hiding.
Ending:
Impressed by Son Gohan’s strength, Obuni of the Tenth Universe promises to target him next!

Episode #48:
During the battle with Cell, Artificial Human #16 pleads with Gohan to defeat Cell and protect the nature he loves. Cell crushes #16’s head, sending Gohan into an eruption of emotion that transforms him into the form now known as ‘Super Saiyan 2’.
Opening:
A Part: Super Saiyan Gohan and Obuni do battle. Gohan swipes at Obuni and knocks off a locket that had hung around his neck. Inside the locket is a picture of Obuni and his family. Obuni takes advantage of Gohan’s distracted form and breaks his left arm. Gohan hardens his heart and transforms into Super Saiyan God [set to the Kageyama Hironobu song “Unmei no Hi ~ Tamashii tai Tamashii” with images of the Super Saiyan God ritual in the background] to knock Obuni out of bounds. This officially ends the Tenth Universe’s run in the Tournament of Power.
B Part: The Muten Roushi battles Frost and tries to seal him with the MafuuBa, but fails due to his stamina being worn down. Frost lures the Muten Roushi into attempting the MaFuuBa again so that he can reverse the technique and use it on Vegeta. Frost is successful in doing this. Meanwhile, Dispo battles Maji Kayo. Jiren lends Dispo a hand after he begins to have difficulty with Maji Kayo. Jiren effortlessly dispatches Maji Kayo, whose liquid body had been giving even Dispo trouble.
Ending:
The Muten Roushi frees Vegeta from the makeshift sealing jar that is Magetta. Before Vegeta can unleash his wrath on Frost the Sixth Universe’s scoundrel escapes into hiding. Vegeta dispatches with Magetta and thanks the Muten Roushi and takes him into hiding to recover his strength. The MaFuuBa will be needed later on.

Episode #49:
Freeza meets up with Frost and discusses their next target for getting their revenge on the Saiyans: Son Gohan.
Opening:
A Part: Frost and Gohan do battle. Gohan transforms into Super Saiyan God and gains the upper hand on Frost, but then Freeza blasts Gohan with a Death Beam from behind. Has Freeza betrayed the Seventh Universe?! Gohan battles Freeza and Frost, separated from the rest of the Seventh Universe. The battle is not easy, considering Gohan’s left arm is still broken. Finally, Gohan is cornered up against the edge of the combat ring. Freeza suggests to Frost that they end this with their full power. Frost and Freeza both power up, but Frost is surprised when Freeza transforms into a new form he has never seen: ‘Golden Freeza’. This confirms Freeza’s suspicion, that Frost does not have power comparable to his, and so kicks Frost towards Gohan. As if on cue, Gohan grabs Frost by the tail and swings him off of the platform. Gohan and Freeza’s secret plan to get rid of the pesky, slippery Frost has succeeded! “My, what a fiendish plan you thought up, Son Gohan-san,” commends Freeza before the cut to the commercial break.
B Part: Frost joins Botamo and Magetta on in the stands, cursing Freeza for betraying him. “Apparently, Freeza-san has more confidence in Gokuu-san achieving his resurrection than you, Frost-san,” comments Vados. Frost attacks Freeza from the stands but before he can make contact the Zen-Ou erase Frost for cheating. Meanwhile, Ribrianne smokes out Vegeta for a rematch. Vegeta unleashes Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan, revealing that he can now transform into the form without exhausting his stamina. This means that he no longer has to maintain the form for long periods of time, which is also stamina-consuming. As a result, “Vegeta uses Blue…” as Tenshinhan notes, “…Similarly to the Kaiou-ken!” Thanks to this, Vegeta is able to match Ribrianne’s strength and speed at last.
Ending:
Dispo struggles to catch his breath as he battles Gokuu, who is also using Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan as if it were the Kaiou-ken, instantly popping in-and-out of the form to conserve stamina. Now that he, Toppo and Jiren are the only fighters remaining for the Eleventh Universe Dispo has been trying to handle the majority of the heavy lifting so that their two aces don’t exhaust themselves. In the stands, Vermouth notes Dispo’s decaying stamina and telepathically orders Jiren to step in. With blinding speed, Jiren knocks Gokuu clear across the combat arena, shocking everyone.

Episode #50:
The Grand Priest declares the commencement of the Tournament of Power.
Opening: Shadows of the eighty warriors soon mark the not yet bulldozed combat arena as a rush of bodies slam into one another. Combatants haphazardly strike one another, desperate to catch the tide of the battle on their side early on. Finally, Son Gokuu spots Jiren in the mass of fighters, unmoving, eyes shut. In a high angle shot Jiren opens his eyes to stare down Son Gokuu.
Title Card: Son Gokuu and Jiren stare one another down.
A Part: Twenty-two minutes later, Gokuu struggles to pick himself up out of the rubble after taking Jiren’s blow with no guard. Gokuu tries to use his Shunkan-Idou to teleport behind Jiren for a counterattack, but finds that he cannot sense Jiren’s ki at all. With Jiren likely to rush over to the other half of the ring to find Gokuu, the Saiyan decides to hide among the rubble while he regains his footing. Meanwhile, Vegeta battles Ribrianne, who believes her power of love to be superior to Vegeta’s. Ribrianne draws on the power of love from those around her to transform into Super Ribrianne and boost her attacks. Ribrianne criticizes Vegeta for not having the power of love, which leads Vegeta to ‘expose himself’, that is, unleash into Ribrianne’s mind the images within his heart. Dozens of still frames of Vegeta’s life are projected as rapid-fire speeds through the magical girl’s mind. Overwhelmed, Ribrianne stumbles backward, giving Vegeta the opportunity to launch a counterattack.
B Part: Gokuu comes out of hiding and unleashes his hidden trump card: [Insert Music: “Tocatta and Fugue in D Minor” by Johann Sebastian Bach] containing the power of Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan in his body. Gokuu gains an upper hand against Jiren. [Insert Music ends] Gokuu now has more power to spare, but the burden of containing extra ki within his body means—as Vegeta theorizes—he can only perform at his ‘true full power’ for ten minutes at most. Vegeta recalls how he and Kakarrot first realized the weakness of Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan when they discovered it shortly after the battle with Beers. Seven days after the battle with Beers, Vegeta gathers the Saiyans and Videl at the same desert rock lands where he and Gokuu first fought, saying he wants to become a Super Saiyan God now, too. Goten, Trunks and Gohan get on the bandwagon, forcing everyone to draw straws. Vegeta is disgruntled to find he is last in line! Everyone performs the ritual, first Goten, then for Trunks, then for Gohan and finally Vegeta. Only Vegeta seems to be successfully able to transform into a Super Saiyan. Gokuu reckons it’s because he and Vegeta are the only ones who actively train. Gokuu transforms into Super Saiyan God and decides to spar with Vegeta to help him get used to the form. Gokuu and Vegeta reach a standstill. Both realizing that if only they could transform into Super Saiyan to boost their power they’d be able to win the two Saiyans’ instincts take over and amidst their blows they erupt into Super Saiyans…but with blue hair! As Gohan watches the two pure bloods duke it out, he realizes he will never be on their level.
Ending:
Back in the present, all of the other contestants cease fighting so as to watch the battle between Gokuu and Jiren finally unfold for real. In the stands, Beers sweats as Jiren unleashes his ki, an effect good enough to prevent any of Gokuu’s blows from directly landing. “This Jiren bastard…he’s already as strong as a Destruction God!”

Episode #51:
Super Saiyan Blue Gokuu and Vegeta train with Whis a week after the battle with Golden Freeza. Gokuu laments that even though he told Freeza off for rushing into battle before mastering his new form he did the same with Freeza. Gokuu and Vegeta each try to seal the leaking ki of Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan within their bodies, but the strain is too great and their bodies give out after only forty-five seconds. Whis offers that while they certainly need to improve their bodies’ physical condition, what’s really hurting them is how inefficiently they move their bodies. If only they would learn to let their bodies move on their own, like Whis has learned to do.
Opening:
While Gokuu slams every technique he has into Jiren, Shin asks Beers what he means by “Jiren is already as strong as a Destruction God.” Whis clarifies that while he can’t say for sure if Jiren is as strong as or stronger than any of the current Destruction Gods it is very much like having a thirteenth Destruction God. Beers reminds Shin that he was holding back when he fought Gokuu two years ago. Jiren isn’t even pretending to feel fazed by Gokuu’s attacks.
Title Card
A Part: Realizing he’s in a pinch, Gokuu returns to his base form and prepares a Genki-dama. [“Jupiter aus ‘Die Planete’ Op. 32” by Gustav Holst begins playing] All members of the Seventh Universe Team offer their genki to the Genki-dama, even Freeza! Jiren wants to take the attack head on. Super Ribrianne tries to snipe Gokuu while he forms his Genki-dama, but Vegeta knocks her aside just in time. With the Genki-dama form, Gokuu tosses the ball down on Jiren, but Jiren knocks the attack back. “Incredible! Not even Majin Buu could push back the Genki-dama!” Gokuu transforms into Full Power Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan to power up the Genki-dama, but…Jiren merely calms his emotions and is able to push back the ball with his mind alone. Resistance is ultimately futile and Gokuu passes out, falling into his own Genki-dama. The ball of genki explodes, knocking the remaining fighters around and pushing back much of the rubble so that a large crater exists in the ring. Son Gokuu…appears dead.
Ending Credits: [“Jupiter aus ‘Die Planete’ Op. 32” continues through Ending Credits]
B Part: Before the Zen-Ou can declare Gokuu killed by his own attack Gohan interjects, arguing that his dad has been neither confirmed to be dead or to have been removed from the ring. The two childish gods agree with this flawless logic and tell the other fighters to hurry up and get back to fighting. Gohan silently hopes his dad is still alive before quickly moving into action: Jiren is a threat that must be contained and removed immediately. Gohan sets about explaining his plan to the others members of the Seventh Universe. Jiren, meanwhile, has begun to meditate. This meditation is quickly interrupted when the Muten Roushi unleashes his MaFuu-Ba on Jiren. Jiren effortlessly dispels the MaFuuba, blowing the green wind away with a simple swiping of his hand before then flicking the Muten Roushi out of the ring. The Seventh Universe Team has lost its first member! Kuririn attacks next, using his Kienzan, but with his hearing still affected, Kuririn’s aim falters and he finds himself locked into hand-to-hand combat with Jiren before finally taking an uppercut that sends him flying out of bounds…or so Jiren thinks! Tenshinhan uses a new technique of his to replace Kuririn with himself. Kuririn escapes disqualification while Tenshinhan lands in the bleachers alongside the gods of his universe. The two Zen-Ou declare that Tenshinhan is out of bounds and thus the second fighter from the Seventh Universe to be defeated. Kuririn unleashes his newly powered-up Taiyou-ken, but Jiren simply closes his eyes. He has no need of his sense of sight to deal with Kuririn. Jiren uses a karate chop to send Kuririn flying toward the edge of the arena again…only for him to be replaced by Tenshinhan again! Jiren turns to the bleachers to find that Tenshinhan is indeed still there—in fact, a second appears right next to him! Jiren realizes that Tenshinhan is splitting himself up into multiple bodies and hiding among the rubble so as to save his comrades. The Zen-Ou duo declares that Tenshinhan is not yet defeated and reverse their ruling in light of the new evidence. After the Twenty-Third Tenk’aichi Budoukai, Chaozu tells Tenshinhan that his Shishin no Ken technique is best suited to a support role during a team battle. Having multiple bodies with which to cover a large space and support teammates gives Tenshinhan the ability to defeat enemies with narrow skill sets. Back in the present, the Seventh Universe Team gathers, hiding among the rubble, to discuss their plan of attack against Jiren. Gohan asks Tenshinhan to play a support role and he graciously accepts. The Muten Roushi asks Tenshinhan to not save him should he fall out. After he fulfils his part in Gohan’s plan he will definitely have no more stamina left. Tenshinhan bitterly accepts this. Next, Gohan turns to Piccolo and says: “Piccolo-san, you will…”

Episode #52:
A Vegeta disgruntled with his powerlessness against Hit at the Sixth & Seventh Universe Martial Arts Tournament spars with Gokuu. Vegeta pushes his Full Power Super Saiyan self to maintain the form for two whole minutes, but afterward finds he cannot even lift a single finger. Gokuu nods his head in agreement that they both still have a long way to go before they can use this power in combat.
Opening:
A Part: Artificial Humans #17 and #18 rain down concentrated volleys of ki bullets upon Jiren. While distracted, Jiren is left open to a massive one-handed Kamehame-Ha from Super Saiyan God Gohan. Tackling assaults on two fronts, Jiren is left open to Piccolo’s MaFuu-Ba…but Jiren merely stands in place, unaffected! Piccolo ends the technique to conserve strength, he and Gohan flabbergasted that their attack had no effect. In the stands, Vermouth explains that Jiren is the personification of justice and thus cannot be contained by an ‘evil sealing wave’. Vegeta tightens his glove’s grips and prepares to enter the fray.
B Part: After the battle with Zamasu Vegeta and Gokuu successfully complete five minutes of sparring in the gravity room while using Full Power Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan. “A little while longer and we should be able to use the form in combat!” reasons Gokuu. “It’s not enough,” reasons Vegeta. Later, Vegeta washes away his worries in the gym shower. Blooma sneaks up behind him, takes his hand and places it upon her stomach. “Guess what?” Instantly sensing her meaning, Vegeta turns around and shows her his happily surprised face. “Oi, could it be…?!” Gokuu ruins the moments by standing up in the stall next to them and asking ‘the question’: “Are you getting fat?!” Back in the present, Vegeta watches two more Tenshinhan doppelgangers sacrifice themselves to prevent Kuririn and Piccolo from being thrown overboard. As Jiren returns to his resting position after launching his attacks, Vegeta transforms into Full Power Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan and begins kicking Jiren in the head. Jiren narrowly manages to negate some of the kick’s power by moving his head, but still takes a nasty-sounding graze on his cheek and stumbles for a moment before quickly regaining his footing. Vegeta and Jiren begin trading blows. Vegeta’s theory that he would hold an advantage over Jiren after having watched how he fought goes down the toilet when he realizes that Jiren had been watching him fight earlier, too. Taking the pace early on was the linchpin of Vegeta’s plan, but that’s impossible now. Trading a few more blows with Jiren, Vegeta finally begins to realize why he’s at a loss for a decisive blow: Jiren is moving without thinking. “Mastery of Selfishness…” mumbles Beers, mouth agape. The audience is stunned to see a non-god using such a high-level technique. Whis explains that this is what he has been trying to teach Gokuu and Vegeta. Clearing his throat, Vegeta backs off and asks Gohan and Piccolo to cover him. He’s going to need to meditate so as to attempt to use the Mastery of Selfishness Whis has tried to teach him!
Ending:

Episode #53:
Vegeta returns to his normal form and hides among the debris while Gohan battles Jiren.
Opening:
A Part: Piccolo covers Gohan from a distance and prevents Jiren from searching for Vegeta while Gohan holds Jiren’s attention. Artificial Humans #17 and #18 join in on the attack, purposefully using confusion tactics to disrupt Jiren’s pace and force him to overexert himself at theirs. Jiren realizes that his foes are not losing stamina and decides to calm himself, making no moves at all. The key to victory is controlling the rhythm of the battle! Toppo and Dispo take their cue and corner off #17 and #18 from the rest of their teammates. Kuririn fires off a close-range Kienzan at full power, but Jiren uses his aura to redirect the attack towards Hit. Hit uses his stamina-consuming time-skip technique to allow the Kienzan to pass through him and safely out of the arena. Jiren dashes toward Kuririn and knocks him out of the arena, but an eleventh Tenshinhan saves Kuririn at the cost of his own role. With only one Tenshinhan left Jiren tells the Seventh Universe Team that their time is up.
B Part: One-by-one the eleven Tenshinhan sitting in the stands disappear. The original Tenshinhan has called back his doppelgangers! Hiding amongst the rubble, Tenshinhan takes stock of his remaining stamina. Tenshinhan realizes he only has enough stamina left for one last attack. Jiren breaks past Gohan, Piccolo and Kuririn to begin searching through the rubble for Vegeta. Piccolo fires a Makankou-sappou at Jiren’s right popliteal fossa but with a simple mid-dash twist Jiren spins around and kicks the drill upward. Jiren begins knocking the rubble and pillars of rubble over using the gale force generated by mere punches through the air. As the rumbling grows closer, Vegeta digs deeper into his meditation. Whis’ words about moving without thinking haunt Vegeta. Finally, Jiren spots Vegeta, but a swift punch from Super Saiyan God Gohan dissuades Jiren’s course just long enough for Tenshinhan capture him in the Bankoku Bikkuri Shou technique. Tenshinhan finds that to help out Vegeta feels ironic, but if it means survival, he’ll swallow his pride and buy him the time he needs.
Ending:
Meanwhile, Kuririn and #17 battle Toppo. Toppo slurs Son Gokuu as a devil and enemy to justice, which annoys Kuririn and leaves #17 repeating Beers’ line that Toppo is “the type of fellow sure to find himself in an early grave.”

Episode #54:
Artificial Human #18 breaks Dispo’s left arm with a nasty kick. Artificial Human #18 calls Dispo “an awfully boring rabbit” and challenges him to a high-speed game of peek-a-boo, but Dispo gets cramps from muscle fatigue. #18 takes advantage of the repercussions of Dispo’s heavy front load during the tournament and blasts him out of the ring. Now only two contestants from the Eleventh Universe remain.
Opening:
A Part: Kuririn’s balance issues are still affecting him. With his hearing so out of whack it makes it difficult to line-up with spur-of-the-moment combinations and attack patterns. With it being necessary to make preordained attack patterns, Kuririn and #17’s combinations get broken easily by the experienced Toppo. Kuririn comes up with one last strategy, but before he can tell it to Artificial Human #17 they’re separates by Toppo’s attack. With Toppo now taking advantage of Kuririn’s weakness by intentionally keeping the two apart and thus unable to synch up Kuririn realizes he has only one move left: hoping his brother-in-law can figure out his next plan. Kuririn draws Toppo’s attention, allows himself to be cornered and uses his Full Power Taiyou-ken to blind Toppo, who Kuririn lured in close by allowing himself to not be able to back up any further. Toppo loses his sense of sight, but can still sense ki! Toppo begins swiping at Kuririn, but Kuririn blocks with a cross block formation. The force of the punch is still enough to make Kuririn’s arms begin to swell from the beating. Just as he’s about to buckle under the pressure, Kuririn is saved by long-range ki bullet volleys from #17. Toppo is bombarded from behind, especially on his spine, but because artificial humans have no detectable ki he is unable to dodge without a sense of sight. Toppo pulls away from Kuririn’s corner to try to regroup, but #17’s volley follows him like a swarm of locus. Toppo begins moving at his highest speed, aiming to try and find the nearest rock formation he can hide in, but ki blasts from Kuririn, who he can sense and thus dodge, consistently course correct him. Toppo is essentially trapped in a cycle of taking fire, dodging fire he can sense only to be hit by fire he cannot sense and wasting his ki on futile running. Finally, Toppo trips over some rubble and hits the arena floor hard. Kuririn rushes in and grabs the floored Toppo by his legs and begins swinging him in a circle until he gains enough momentum to through Toppo toward the arena’s edge. Toppo tries to stop himself with a ki blast mid-air, but #17 pummels the penultimate Pride Trooper with a stream of ki to send him straight out of the arena. Now only Jiren remains to represent the Eleventh Universe Team. Kuririn thanks #17 for catching on, but #17 replies “It’s nothing, really. Nii-san is reliable,” which in turn makes Kuririn blush.
B Part: Jiren calmly meditates while the Bankoku Bikkuri Shou contains him. Tenshinhan sweats profusely, his limbs turning to jello under the strain of maintaining the attack. Finally, Tenshinhan’s ki output falters, giving Jiren the chance he needs to break free. Tenshinhan collapses, barely able to maintain consciousness. Gohan unleashes a flurry of kicks to stop Jiren from approaching Tenshinhan. Even if Tenshinhan cannot fight, so long as he remains in the ring he still counts as a body in case they manage to knock off all of the other team’s participates and themselves. Jiren knows this fact and shows no qualms with disposing of the defenseless. Picking Tenshinhan up by the head, Jiren pulls back his throwing arm, but before he can launch his pitch, Vegeta grabs his hand. Vegeta has finished his meditation! In a burst of light, Vegeta transforms into Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan, seals the power of Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan in his body tighter and tighter until not only the disappearance of his aura, but the return of his hair and eyes to their normal black color. Yes: like Super Saiyan, Super Saiyan 2 and Super Saiyan God before it, Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan has been made a part of Vegeta’s natural state. Intense meditation and evolutionary instinct brought out by the urgency of his environment has allowed Vegeta to move up a step! Vegeta’s grip forces Jiren to his lose grip on Tenshinhan’s head, which in turns inspires Jiren to focus on Vegeta. A high-speed twister of punches and kicks commences, leaving the rest of the contestants in awe. Whis mentions that Vegeta-san has yet to achieve the Mastery of Selfishness, but his increased speed and strength helps off-set the gap between him and Jiren. Vegeta is now fighting evenly with Jiren! Jiren aims for Vegeta’s shoulder, but finds his aim is off. The Bankoku Bikkuri Shou seems to have affected his nervous system, marring his usual pinpoint motor control. A swift punch to the gut from Vegeta leaves Jiren coughing up saliva! A heavy foot stomp breaks a few of Vegeta’s toes! Blow-after-blow, the two attempt to deliver their most damaging blows. Finally, Vegeta breaks off and unleashes his biggest, heaviest Final Flash, but like the Genki-dama before it, Jiren deflects the attack. Does his stamina know no end?
Ending:
Vegeta’s stamina sure seems to know end! Exhausted by what he hoped would disrupt Jiren’s flow and exhaust his forceful physicality, Vegeta finds himself no longer capable to keep up with Jiren’s Mastery of Selfishness, even though he can now use Full Power Super Saiyan Blue without any drawbacks. “Damn, is this really the extent of my power?!”

Episode #55:
Whis shakes his head. “Yes, Vegeta-san has improved his control over his ki, but his mind and body are still not one. Jiren-san is merely more disciplined.” Vegeta tears off the remained of his ravaged battle jacket and relaxes his tense muscles. Sensing that Vegeta has one last trick up his sleeve, Gohan, Piccolo, Kuririn, #17 and #18 move into position to shield him.
Opening:
A Part: Jiren calmly meditates; he isn’t giving up the flow of the tide any time soon. Gohan and Kuririn move into position to pin Jiren with a two-pronged Kamehame-Ha, but Jiren merely blocks the attacks by holding hold arms out to the side. Piccolo unleashes his Makuuhou’i-dan, but Jiren effortlessly dodges each bullet, in no way feeling caged. Artificial Humans #17 and #18 tag-team Jiren, disrupting his sense of perception and flow with varying speeds, colored ki bullets, and length of attacks. Eventually, Jiren merely grabs Kuririn and uses him as a shield, which breaks the combination attacks’ flow and gives him the opening he needs to send them flying in opposite directions for the ring-out. Finally, Jiren sends Kuririn in a third direction and turns his attention to Vegeta. Gohan tears off the sling created for him by Piccolo and wraps it around Jiren’s neck, hoping to suffocate him just enough to fall into unconsciousness. Jiren uses his ki to incinerate the cloth and uses a spinning motion and a judou chop to knock Gohan face-first into the arena floor. Jiren makes an intimidating mad dash towards Vegeta who bobs his body up-and-down in preparation for the next move. Finally, Jiren reaches contact distance and launches a punch so great it seems to ignite into fire, leaving a trail of fire and smoke in its jet stream. Vegeta digs into his memories and pulls out a technique Kakarrot once used on him during their training with Whis: utsuri-goshi! Vegeta uses the rushing force of Jiren’s attack to propel him straight into the pavement of the arena floor. The force of the slam is so great it officially splits off a fourth of the arena from the rest.
B Part: Vegeta finds himself crawling away from the edge of the newly split off chunk of arena. The concentration needed to precisely catch Jiren’s rhythm, in combination with his own exhaustion and accumulated injuries, has left him struggling to move. To everyone’s horror, Jiren climbs to the top of the split-off chunk of arena to join Vegeta as the only two remaining on the new island. The chunk continues to widen in distance from the main portion of the arena, making it impossible for Gohan and the others to join in with Vegeta. “Since we can’t fly and our bodies are so wrecked we won’t be able to help Vegeta-san,” curses Gohan. Jiren gains some distance from the edge of the arena island before returning to meditating. Vegeta catches his breath, staring down the shut-eyed Jiren. A strange whistling noise catches Vegeta’s attention and the Saiyan Prince soon realizes…it is Jiren’s nose. That utsuri-goshi broke Jiren’s nose and now he’s having difficulty breathing! “Chance!” Vegeta begins sending minute amounts of ki onto the arena floor to make the dust and microscopic debris rise up. Jiren’s breathing becomes more labored, but he nevertheless continues to meditate. Vegeta makes a mad dash for Jiren, hoping to force him to tax his body even more, but Jiren has no trouble dodging slightly dodging each of Vegeta’s attacks. Finally, Jiren grabs Vegeta’s right arm and swings him over his shoulder so as to slam him into the arena floor. Vegeta uses his opportunity to grab onto Jiren’s upper front teeth. The force of the stop breaks Vegeta’s right shoulder while also causing Jiren to suck in the dirt in Vegeta’s left hand and the atmosphere. Jiren manages to finish swinging Vegeta into the floor but is too preoccupied with coughing up the dirt in mouth and lungs to follow up. Vegeta, meanwhile, struggles to focus his vision and stand. Vegeta crawls over to Jiren on his hand and knees and hammers him into the ground as he did ReaCoom all those years ago. Next, hardly even awake, Vegeta begins rolling Jiren’s body toward the edge of the arena. Rolled over onto his back, Jiren grabs Vegeta’s arms and throws him toward the edge. Vegeta grabs onto the edge of the arena pulls himself up onto his feet. In the stands, Beers realizes that Vegeta is no longer even conscious. Jiren pulls himself up and begins jabbing at Vegeta, who seems to effortlessly dodge the attack and reply with a punch of his own. The punches slip to the side of Vegeta as if he was a stone step in a river. Jiren stops as he realizes that Vegeta is no longer conscious. With his mind finally inactive, Vegeta has achieved by Mastery of Selfishness. Smirking, Jiren waits and waits. Finally, Vegeta falls backward and off of the arena. The dual Zen-Ou declare that Vegeta is eliminated!
Ending:
Vegeta is fed a Senzu by the Muten Roushi. Whis teases Vegeta for not even being awake for when he first used the Mastery of Selfishness for the first time. Vegeta is dumbfounded.

Episode #56:
Jiren finishes meditating and leaps from the sub-area island to the main island, ready to continue eliminating the Seventh Universe. The assassin of the Sixth Universe, Hit, strikes at Jiren only for his hand to be stopped before it can reach Jiren’s heart. “What do you think you’re doing, Assassin?” asks Jiren. “Not much, just working,” replies Hit.
Opening:
A Part: “Trying to kill me, if even if means being disqualified?” asks Jiren. With a smirk, Hit replies, “Perhaps.” Out of nowhere, Kale, Caulifla, Cabba, Saoneru and Pirina launch blasts on Jiren. “A good assassin always has a back-up plan.” Jiren is forced back to the edge of arena and then knocked off by Hit. The moment Hit turns his back he instantly regrets it. Jiren blasted the air with ki so as to land against the rip of the fourth of the arena that was now separated. From them, Jiren kicked off, grabbed Hit, and dragged him along with him into the gap between the two pieces of the arena. From there, a split-second battle between Time-Skip and Mastery of Selfishness commences. Hit tries to stay one step ahead of Jiren, but Jiren counters with his Mastery of Selfishness. Thanks to his motor control still being out-of-whack, Jiren suffers blows he normally wouldn’t, but the Mastery of Selfishness is still somehow able to give Hit trouble. The few seconds of falling feel like an eternity. Finally, Jiren gets the upper hand on Hit and uses the assassin’s body as a springboard to latch back onto the main arena while simultaneously hastening Hit’s descent. By the time Hit lands next to Champa in the audience—Champa shrieks “Shit!” when Hit appears next to him—Jiren has regained his footing on the main arena. With labored breathing, Jiren quickly covers his tracks and escapes to rest among the rubble.
B Part: Hit has been taken out of the Tournament of Power! Hit was the leader and ace of the Sixth Universe Team, so the loss shakes them up quite a bit, especially Cabba. In the stands, Champa berates ‘Shit’ (he still can’t remember Hit’s name) for losing, especially so early and with so few bruises. Hit shakes his head, disappointed in himself for being so careless against such a weakened foe. This catches everyone’s attention. Champa asks Hit what he means, but Beers interjects: “He means that that Jiren is at a third of his norm!” Vegeta nods in agreement, Jiren’s stamina has been slowly chipped away at, especially after his nose was broken. If the others can get him to overexert himself then his defeat is secured. Vermouth admits to himself that Jiren is indeed injured and worn down to only a third of his usual stamina, but that won’t stop him. Jiren’s mind is still unwavering, which means he might as well not be impeded. Meanwhile, Gohan approaches Cabba with an olive branch: both of their universes are exhausted, injured and without their aces. They should work together to survive as long as possible. Caulifla agrees for the time being and tells Cabba to shake on it. Cabba asks why he is all of the sudden the leader, to which Caulifla says she and Kale only joined up because of Cabba. Cabba and Gohan shake on the alliance (to which the two Zen-Ou find a delightful twist) and set about deciding their next course of action. While their teams fought against Jiren the rest of the teams have kept quiet, slowly recovering their stamina and setting into place their plans to take advantage of their exhaustion. Fighting closely together is the only option now. Next, the members of the Third Universe begin to make their move. Katopesla leads the strike against the united Sixth and Seventh Universes, but Gohan and Cabba quickly prove that alliances will be the deciding factor when their alliance wipes out the remaining members of the Third Universe effortlessly.
Ending:
Jiren meditates, slowing his breathing as much as possible so as to not over-tax his lungs now that his nasal passages are so blocked.

Episode #57:
The sounds of shoes and boots tipping and tapping on the roughened arena floor and the sound of the pillar at the middle of the arena thundering deeper and deeper through the arena make a harmonious melody. Tip, tap, chung, Tip, tap, chung. Tip, tap, chung. The repetition is broken only by the screams of fighters as they are thrust off of the combat arena. Now, only Gokuu, Gohan, Piccolo, Artificial Human #17, Artificial Human #18, Freeza, Cabba, Caulifla, Kale, Saonel, Pilina, Ribrianne and Jiren remain.
Opening:
A Part: Freeza fires a Death Beam at Cabba’s right shoulder. With Jiren and Ribrianne in hiding the evil emperor proposes that the alliance with the Sixth Universe is now over, since they will eventually have to fight one another anyway. Super Saiyan Cabba tries to do battle with Freeza but is no match for him. Finally, Cabba achieves Super Saiyan 2 out of frustration for his failure to fulfill his promise to Hit. Freeza knocks Cabba out of the ring.
B Part: Piccolo and Gohan battle Saonel and Pilina respectively. The two Namekians display resounding teamwork that forces Gohan to cover for Piccolo and take the brunt of the damage. Noticing this, Piccolo demands Gohan use him as a distraction. Gohan reluctantly agrees but the plan backfires and Piccolo is knocked unconscious.
Ending:

Episode #58:
Artificial Human #17 searches for Jiren while Artificial Human #18 searches for Ribrianne.
Opening:
A Part: #18 finds her prey and sets about challenging the depressed Ribrianne with regards to the truth of her ‘love’. Ribrianne realizes that her love has been impure and selfish up to this point and through #18’s taunting and challenges resolves to reform her use of love. As if by instinct, Ribrianne’s body begins to draw on her small love for others—rather than other’s love for her—to power her attacks. Artificial Human #18 still holds the advantage, though, and sends Ribrianne flying out of the arena.
B Part: #17 finds Jiren and disrupts his meditating. #17 tries to draw Jiren into overexerting himself, but Jiren stands still, knowing that if he isn’t on the offensive he can’t waste his ki against a foe with endless stamina.
Ending:

Episode #59:
Bored out of their minds, Caulifla and Kale decide to hunt down the missing Son Gokuu and see if they can fight him.
Opening:
With the battles having moved away from the epicenter of Gokuu’s Genki-Dama, Caulifla and Kale investigate the now barren area free from enemy attack. Kale wonders if they’ll actually find anything. Caulifla affirms that they will, “I can smell that old man!” Kale slips while trying to join her ‘ane-san’ atop a mountainous pile of rubble and causes it to collapse. When the dust settles Caulifla exclaims “Aha, I found it!” Kale cleans her eyes of dust and sees Caulifla holding up Gokuu’s dougi top. “You smelled his shirt?” “Yeah, it smells just like the old man!” “All that’s left of him is his shirt?” “Naw, why would his shirt survive but not him?” “But then…where is he?”
Title Card: Kale happily doing Caulifla’s laundry while wearing a perverted expression.
A Part: The two Saiyan girls begin to take fire from an unidentifiable source. The two girls quickly and seamlessly begin covering one another while checking their surroundings. Someone’s attacking them from hiding! Kale realizes that they need to clear the area of rubble and quickly wipes away the rubble with ki streams. Meanwhile, Caulifla leaps into the area to provide an easy target to distract their hidden foe from noticing Kale’s plan. A figure leaps out of the way of Kale’s attack only to be pinned in mid-air by the two. “Damn!” Gokuu has been caught! Yes, it was Gokuu attacking from the shadows; he survived the battle with Jiren! Gokuu uses the basics of judou to lead his two foes’ attacks and let them fall to the ground under their own weight. “So, yer alive after all, Old Man!” Scratching his nose, Gokuu mumbles something about his name not being ‘Old Man’ then takes his usual form. Caulifla transforms into Super Saiyan 2 and Kale transforms into her normal Super Saiyan form to conserve stamina. The two overwhelm Gokuu with their team work, prompting Whis to tease Vegeta about how he and Gokuu-san should learn to take a page from those two. Gokuu raises his ki to Super Saiyan 2-esque levels and begins to minimize his movements, hoping to conserve his stamina as well. Caulifla tells Gokuu to teach her Super Saiyan 3, but Gokuu just replies “It’s useless.” Caulifla and Kale both become frustrated, especially Kale because she can see how much fun ‘ane-san’ is having and she doesn’t want to lose yet. Caulifla transforms into her berserker form and catches everyone else’s attention.
B Part: “Gokuu’s alive!” everyone celebrates at this prospect, but Vegeta says that Kale will be a problem. Gokuu raises his ki further and further, unveiling more and more power to match Kale. Caulifla thanks Kale for fighting with her and the two begin to take a decisive lead against Gokuu. Finally, Gokuu’s ki rises to his usual Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan level…without him transforming! Vegeta theorizes that Kakarrot was studying his ki while he was in hiding and meditating to replicate what he achieved during the battle with Jiren. Whis theorizes that despite taking a beating from Jiren and his own Genki-Dama Gokuu’s doing so well because of how long he spent meditating unperturbed. Gokuu knocks Kale and Caulifla back to their normal forms, prompting the two to go into hiding. A few minutes of Gokuu searching for the two pass before he is confronted by a warrior wearing…Potara?!
Ending:

Episode #60:
Before the tournament Champa presents Caulifla and Kale with Potara. “These secret weapons are only to be used in the greatest of pinches, so save them until the end!” In the present, Caulifla reminds Kale of the Potara. “As a team we were able to force Gokuu to go all-out, as one we’ll be able to surpass Gokuu’s full power!”
Opening:
The merged Caulifla and Kale introduce Gokuu to their current form: Kefla. Kefla transforms in a slightly buff green-haired Super Saiyan form, just like Kale’s form.
Title Card: Kefla taking a ‘selfie’.
A Part: Gokuu and Kefla go at it. The two are even at first, but the longer the battle runs the more control Kefla gains over her power. Finally, despite being able to draw on Super Saiyan Blue levels of power in his normal form, Gokuu is overcome by his injuries from earlier and Kefla’s raw power. Because of the intense synchronization of Kale and Caulifla’s minds Kefla’s ki bullet storms feature frightening speed, accuracy and nearly unpredictable flight patterns. Just as he is about to receive a stunning kick to the head Gokuu stumbles forward and Kefla’s kick misses. Kefla attempts a few more blows, but Gokuu seems to stumble right around them. Finally, Vegeta hops out of his seat and exclaims “This is…!!!”
B Part: “This is…the Mastery of Selfishness!” Vegeta declares. Whis agrees, “Gokuu-san is indeed using a form of the discipline. It’s almost as if it is a premonition that he is on the cusp of something…” Finally, Gokuu catches Kefla’s leg mid-kick, much to her surprise. Gokuu’s head rises from its gazing at the ground to reveal a silver glow in his eyes! [“Saikyou no Battle” performed by Kushida Akira begins to play] Suddenly, Gokuu’s aura erupts. Gokuu’s power suddenly soars to new heights and Kefla soon finds herself on the receiving end of a nasty beating. Kefla backs off long enough to regain her composure before transforming into a Super Saiyan 2. [End insert song “Saikyou no Battle”] Gokuu skillfully aims for Kefla’s vitals so as to slow her breathing and injure her joints. Finally, Kefla fires off her Crush Cannon at full power, but Gokuu counters with a close-range Kamehame-Ha that sends her flying out of the ring and destroys the Potara. The Zen-Ou both declare that both Caulifla and Kale are eliminated.
Ending:
Gokuu begins slowly walking toward Jiren.

Episode #61:
Artificial Human #17 and Jiren stare down. The world is silent but for Jiren’s slightly labored breathing. #17 unleashes a volley of ki blasts, but Jiren simply walks right through them. Realizing that Jiren will reach him before he can tired him out, #17 begins putting distance between the two of them, but this eventually puts him…right at the edge of the ring!
Opening:
Title Card: #17 and his family build a snow fortress.
A Part: #17 decides to close the gap between him and Jiren, hoping that close combat will prompt Jiren to take swings at him and waste his ki. Artificial Human #18 launches a sneak attack from behind, timing her attack with Jiren’s evasions and successfully burning the back of his head. Jiren grimaces from the burning sensation, prompting #17 to taunt that if he hadn’t been so tired from fighting up to this point then he would’ve been able to dodge even that. Jiren’s calms himself and begins firing off fast but graceful jabs. #17 dodges while #18 attacks, which forces Jiren to dodge only to be hit by #17, who is able to predict where #18 will force Jiren to move. Jiren becomes trapped in a never-ending cycle, built specifically to tire him out.
B Part: Gohan pleads with Saonel and Pilina to rejoin forces with the Seventh Universe until Jiren is defeated. Saonel admits that it might be the smartest move at this point, but they’re not quite interested in joining forces with Freeza after the brutal beating he gave Cabba. Freeza overhears this from his place atop the ever descending center pillar and taunts the two, which evokes a rather torrid response from the two, especially Pilina. Gohan finds himself in the position of having to protect Freeza, who has the most stamina left, from wasting his stamina and their chance of survival on the two Namekians. Using Super Saiyan God, Gohan begins slamming his heaviest punches and kicks into Pilina. Eventually, Pilina’s arms drop, too hurt and swollen to use for anything, let alone blocking. Saonel tries to break past Gohan, but Gohan grabs the leaping Namekian and slams him into his partner. With a full-power Kamehame-Ha, Gohan blasts the two previously-knocked-on-their-asses Namekians out of the ring.
Ending:
Piccolo awakens and stumbles over to Gohan’s position. The two rest for a moment back-to-back without saying a word so as to listen to the sounds of the battles in the distance. The sound of Gokuu walking across the ring steadily grows louder.

Episode #62:
Against a setting sun Son Gokuu and Artificial Human #17 do battle. Gokuu can’t believe how much more powerful #17 has become, being able to even match him as a Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan. #17 feigns modesty in his usual calm demeanor but then warns that he has an ace up his sleeve, too. In the present, Artificial Human #17 prepares his trump card.
Opening:
Title Card
A Part: #17 unleashes his ultimate attack while #18 distracts Jiren long enough to prevent him from evading. Jiren catches #17’s fluctuating stream of ki, closes his eyes, and matches the frequency of #17’s ki just long enough to coat himself in an aura that can pass through #17’s stream and allow him to land a solid blow. Taken aback, #17 takes the blow to the head with no guard. Stunned by the slugging, #17 cannot stop himself from being kicked out of bounds. Artificial Human #18 launches another volley of ki to try and overexert Jiren’s body and ki but Jiren merely dashes straight through the volley, grabs #18 by the throat, and throws her straight toward the stands. “No more beating around the bush,” Jiren decrees.
B Part: Kuririn dashes across the stands and catches #18 before she can crash into the seats at high-speed. #18 blushes and whispers something into Kuririn’s ears, which naturally elicits a comically silly face from the former monk. Meanwhile, on his journey to Son Gokuu, Jiren comes across the tuckered out Gohan and Piccolo. The two pick themselves off the ground and dash at Jiren with slipshod form. Despite using various combinations and timed movements to try and hit Jiren the final Pride Trooper bypasses them and counters during the duo’s openings. Piccolo uses his elongating arms to wrap around Jiren at his joints, effectively preventing him from moving. Super Saiyan God Gohan unleashes a series of punches on Jiren’s torso but Jiren replies by matching his breathing to Gohan’s timing, effectively reducing the strain on his body by leading Gohan’s punches. Gohan breaks off his attack once he realizes what is going on. Jiren head butts Piccolo from behind—even though it means agitating the burn on the back of his head—and frees himself from Piccolo’s locking. Jiren crushes Piccolo’s chest with a palm thrust and then roundhouse kicks him out of the ring. [Insert Song: “Unmei no Hi ~ Tamashii tai Tamashii” performed by Kageyama Hironobu] Gohan’s ki explodes to its fullest power. Gohan attacks Jiren, but Jiren counters with a stabbing thrust of his right hand fingers into Gohan’s throat. [Insert Song: “Unmei no Hi ~ Tamashii tai Tamashii” is abruptly cut off thirty-one seconds into the song]. Gohan passes out from the attack, allowing Jiren to toss him lightly out of the ring. Now only Son Gokuu and Freeza remain to stop Jiren from winning the Tournament of Power.
Ending:
Using only a single key frame, Jiren meditates for forty-five seconds as Son Gokuu’s footsteps steadily grows louder from off-screen. Son Gokuu finally reaches Jiren by walking on screen from the corner of the screen. The two stare one another down for fifteen seconds before the Saiyan’s hair turns to silver in a flash of light that ends the episode.

Episode #63:
“Whatever Gokuu’s new form is it’s definitely given him an incredible amount of power!” reasons Kuririn. A silver-haired Son Gokuu and Jiren finally meet face-to-face again. “Round II,” says Gokuu.
Opening: a montage of the tournament so far.
Title Card
A Part: [“Saikyou no Battle” performed by Kushida Akira begins to play] Gokuu and Jiren begin a seemingly endless dance of trying to hit one another, but consistently failing due to their use of the Mastery of Selfishness. Whis estimates that both fighters are down to about a fifth of their full power with Beers adding “The real question is: who’s better than whom at one-fifth of their usual stamina?” As Vegeta watches the battle before him his acquire a silver glow. [Insert Song Ends] Jiren begins to take the advantage over Gokuu. Gokuu simply isn’t as used to the Mastery of Selfishness as Jiren is. Frustrated, Gokuu realizes he needs more stamina.
B Part: Gokuu asks Jiren why he thinks he will win, but Jiren does not reply. Gokuu says that as much as he hates to admit it, Jiren is still far and above the better fighter of the two. “Sad to say, I can’t win on my own. But the Tournament of Power isn’t just about a single fighter…” [Insert Song: “We Gotta Power (2005 ver.)” performed by Kageyama Hironobu] Suddenly, Gokuu’s aura erupts to everyone’s surprise. Whis and Beers realize what’s happening immediately: “The Genki-Dama shocked Gokuu into awakening the Mastery of Selfishness. The residual genki that his body absorbed is still deep within his body!” Images of the memories of the members of the Seventh Universe play the background behind Gokuu as his power grows and grows. To Jiren’s chagrin he must unleash his full-power, too.  Both fighters go at it one last time. Gokuu even smugly slaps the burn on the back of Jiren’s head! Finally, the two are caught in an incredible beam struggle that ends in an explosion! [Insert Song “We Gotta Power” ends] When the light clears the audience is shocked to find the arena is now completely destroy, only small chunks remaining. Both Gokuu and Jiren remain unconscious atop small floating boulders. “The time isn’t up yet!” “Someone can still win!” Suddenly, both boulders are blasted to smithereens by thin beams of ki that strike through the bodies of Gokuu and Jiren. Both contestants fall out of bounds. “The winner of the Tournament of Power is…Freeza from the Seventh Universe!” Shocked gasps play over a close-up of the smuggest Golden Freeza face ever.

Episode #64:
•The smuggest look ever graces Golden Freeza’s face. Within the pupils of his eyes the shock and horror of the remaining spectators pass through.
Opening: Freeza’s various moments of triumph animated to “F” by Maximum the Hormone.
•All are shocked. The two Zen-Ou erase the Eleventh Universe. Then, Gokuu begins to bleed out from Freeza’s Death Beams. Enraged, Gohan leaps forward from the stands as a Super Saiyan God and strikes at Freeza. Freeza evades Gohan’s attacks with grace, even countering by sending him smacking back with his tail.
•Title Card
•A Part: Gohan (green track suit) is knocked back by Gokuu’s kick. Three hours earlier, Gohan challenged Gokuu to a battle to test the extent of his new strength. As expected of someone who has achieved Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan, Gokuu now has the strength of Super Saiyan God as part of his natural state. Gohan fires off a volley of ki blasts to distract his dad, but Gokuu evades with his Shunkan-idou, sneaking up behind Gohan, and unleashing a series of Gatling-gun-esque jabs. Gohan, of course, recognizes this would happen, and was prepared to catch his dad’s arms before he could gain momentum and slam him into the wasteland below. Gokuu admits that Gohan’s improved more than he was expecting in such a short amount of time, but knows he’s still holding back. Gohan mumbles humbly that he does have a hidden trump card and unveils Super Saiyan God. Gokuu raises his ki to his maximum normal state power. The two’s battle creates a tornado of debris and boulders that Piccolo must escape from. Finally, Gokuu decides to test the full extent of Gohan’s power and transforms into a Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan. A clash of Kamehame-Ha streams create a massive explosion that shakes the entire Earth. As the dust clears, Gokuu feeds himself and an unconscious Gohan senzu to restore their health and stamina. “You ain’t got a fighter’s heart, but you still got a strong heart, Gohan,” Gokuu whispers to his unconscious son. In the present, Gohan pleads to Freeza’s sensibilities as a member of the Seventh Universe Team. Freeza acquiesces, only for Gohan to launch a full power sucker punch. Freeza grabs Gohan’s right wrist and crushes it gleefully, “Oh, Gohan-san, I know you’re far too devious to ever fight fair.” Gohan’s plan backfires! Freeza sends Gohan flying back into the stands and fires multiple Death Beams into his chest.
•B Part: Piccolo feeds Gohan a senzu. Gokuu regains his footing after eating a senzu, too. Gokuu asks Freeza what his plan is now. Freeza responds gleefully: “”
