Goku is awake. Finally. He's also aiming to become higher than a Super Saiyan like Vegeta. I wonder if he'll have enough time to train before the artificial humans find him.

Considering the preview, he will. He will find out a way to train really fast

I think this was the first time in the whole series that Chi Chi actually showed that she cares about Goku and not just Gohan and his studies. Its a nice change. Its good that Goku has been healed, but hopefully he and the other two can find a way to get even stronger and beat Cell.

-sees the episode title-



Goku is finally back on his feet! Just like Vegeta assumed, Goku is going to try and ascend beyond Super Saiyan!

Sounds like some hard training awaits~

Seems like the Z-Fighters seriously are blind when they can't sense energy levels :o

Nice effort by Krillin. He stood up and was brave for once, I liked it. Always being scared/wimpy and what not gets annoying at times.

So this episode marks the official halfway point for DBZ! Kuririn held his own for a short time against Cell and Goku is back on his feet. It's getting good!

How many times has Krillin met up with a girl and found her girlfriend-material now? And why did Chi Chi just let Gohan leave with the others to fight rather than study?

Well Trunks is off to train with his dad, and Goku's back! The red colour in the sea at the end could possibly symbolise his hair turning red as his next super saiyan transformation, just like he was talking about. Let's see!

Also I'm sure Android 16 has a higher power level than 17 and 18, so when he actually starts fighting he'll cause devastation.

Trunks inner monologue about the time shifting/changing was interesting. So he thinks he probably changed few things due to his time travelling. Would that be the reason why there are more cyborgs? Seems unlikely but who knows. I can't even remember if this gets adressed/solved later on.

I enjoyed as well that Chi Chi is reacting much more gentle and sweet after Gokus awake than she used to.

The short squabble between Krillin and Cell was pretty intense. Krillin held out good, credits for him for trying his best and saving the innocent duo. He managed to land a blow on Cell too. It was a valiant effort. I am impressed. Krillin still got his fighting spirits. Although, his luck truly is laughable when he was the one who came across Imperfect Cell by pure chance.

Finally, Goku sure took a while to wake up. I find it pretty charming how Vegeta guessed it right that Goku will try ascending his Super Saiyan transformation. And how Goku, pridefully, stated what Vegeta is thinking. Despite their very clear differences and feelings for one another, it is as if those two are best friends already.

And look, a happy husband and wife moment for Goku and Chi-Chi. I found it adorable how someone as naively innocent as Goku could hold his wife in such a loving embrace, despite said wife's occasional shortcomings.

That was cool! Krillian was amazing there. Didn't thought he had enough chance to keep himself up for that time. Things are way beyond the strength. However there is 3 timelines. I hope Trunks finds this fast. And also his mother may find out the weakness of the androids. Who knows what comes next!!

Good thing is Goku is better now. He also knows there is more room to get stronger. Now he, Vegeta and Trunks are going to get stronger. Wish Gohan could also become a Super Saiyan.

the reason the green Android dude who hangs out with 17&18 isn't in the future of trunks is because Goku is dead so there was no point in using him (or if he was activated, he wouldn't have any objectives to accomplish so he would be rouge and won't do anything).
