The elder Neva! Well, the guardian of the demon dragon balls definitely has knowledge and wisdom.

Not going to lie, this episode is weird. The green fat Duu is creepy if anything. They're still building up for what they have now. I'm curious how powerful that green Duu really is.

Can someone remind me how the demon king is spying on the main cast?

Also I swear every time Dr.Anisu interacts with Kuu she has this "Look at this Dickhead.." deamonor.

Bro it’s kinda wild on how Vegeta had to fight the Tamogami and Kraken at the same time.

Duu is creepy and Kuu is annoying. I like Duu’s fighting style though cuz it reminds me a little bit of fat Buu’s style so that’s a plus.

Let's go, mini Vegeta. Show them who's boss! Also we finally know got to know the Tamagami's' maker. I'm guessing we're getting ssj Vegeta (mini) tomorrow). I wonder if Majin Duu is gonna win against Tagamai #1. Duu seems to be doing better than Kuu did

Having Piccolo close is always nice. But this time was specially nice. Putting stop to Neva charades right there, and keep the story going.
Even after saying that he is a pacifist, kinda. Neva is still shady.

Now, Duu feel more like a successor to Majin Buu than Cuu.

Duu saying N'cha set a chill down my spine. An evil Arale, or at least an Arale with someone evil to giving commands.

ブウ、クウ、ヅウ (Buu, Kuu, Duu (Zuu/Dzuu))
So Duu is more similar to Buu AFTER absorbing the Kai's, both in appearance and personality. While Kuu is more like [kid] Buu in appearance. I really like Kuu, I'm happy he's going to stick around as a servant <3. Duu and Vegeta are putting up a nice fight, I feel bad for that kraken thing though :c (I was seriously scared/expecting Duu to turn them into chocolate, he's A LOT more tame than fat Buu)

So... Neva took a bath? ZERO chance the girls (and likely everyone else too) wouldn't be complaining like crazy unless that was the case?!

Another really interesting episode with some cool action at the end. I can’t get a read on what Neva’s playing at. It feels like everyone is just playing Gomah for their own intentions, using him as a helpful idiot to get their own wish granted and are really out to rule for themselves.

So was king piccolo not famous in the demon realm either? It was surprising to hear Neva say he’d never heard of Piccolo

Arinsu with the dragon balls and her Majins and then Neva seems to want the dragon balls too based on how he looked when Goku said he had one. I wonder if he’ll try to use them to turn himself into the strongest in the universe like Moro or something. I also don’t think he stayed behind peacefully, the nameks may have trapped him there because of his plans.

I was expecting Duu to be another failed summoning, but looks like it actually worked this time lol. Duu has that same sort of childish naïveté that Buu first had in his fat form. He also doesn’t know his own strength yet, but he’s giving the Tamagami some problems so Arinsu might get that dragon ball!

Of course the one time Vegeta fights we get some AOE environmental gimmick aka the kraken that interrupts it. I hope they let him finish the fight and give him some shine. Goku already got a W, let Vegeta get one!

Once again, the Dragon Ball English Xitter account spoiled something for me. This time it was Majin Duu. *sigh* I'm surprised they created another Majin after Kuu's failure. I thought they'd power up Kuu. Or maybe erase him and create a new one. But it seems like Kuu is sticking around. Honestly kinda prefer it this way. Kuu is pretty entertaining. It's also funny how he has a sibling dynamic with Duu.

So, Piccolo's father's "real" name was Katatz? So that means Piccolo was a name he adopted after he left Daima. Same thing as calling himself Daimaou or Demon King I guess. Piccolo knowing so much about Namek despite being born on earth but then forgetting his native language is weird.

Finally, some Vegeta screentime. I really hope he's actually going to fight the Tamagami. He wasn't serious at all. And the fact that he became a prey to the kraken so soon just makes it seem like he got nerfed. The preview wasn't a good sign. I don't want Goku to take over so soon. Vegeta needs to have a fair fight. I'm just hoping the preview was misleading on purpose. Need another awesome fight scene like Goku vs 3rd realm Tamagami.

@FMmatron Thank you for posting this. When Piccolo said that, I immediately thought of this but for some reason, I felt like maybe I imagined it. I can see maybe not having the same fluidity but completely forgetting your language? Felt like a forced reason to bring Neva.

Okay. And now we have Majin Duu. Majin Kuu has a brother now. And they'll probably fight as a duo later. Majin Duu even has Kid Buu's eyes. And just like Majin Buu, he also likes chocolate.

Surprised that Piccolo doesn't know the Namekian language anymore, despite in the original Dragon Ball (in the anime, not sure about the manga), he had a conversation with Kami in their language. And reminder that Piccolo merged with Nail and Kami. And Piccolo's father was called Katatz. I guess King Piccolo doesn't count as his actual father?

And now it's Vegeta's turn to fight a Tamagami, but there's a Kraken interrupting the fight.

Oh, and that random Dr Slump reference. Okay, Toriyama, we get it. You created Dr Slump. Arale's catchphrase is "N'cha". The Dr Slump fans in Japan will love that.

@wildhood i think i know what they meant but instead did this mistake.

piccolo may know namekian, but he dosent know the code-word for the demon realm dragon balls.

but instead of piccolo saying he dosent know the password they made him say he dosent know namekian

either that or piccolo is just senile, which dosent make sense. even super buu and baby commented at how much piccolo is regarded as a smart fighter, and he constantly meditating. so its very unlikely that he would forget something like that.

a mistake, but we dont know if its made by toryama or toei. whoever did this. but its not THAT bad.

I really like a lot the Tamagami designs and personality, at first I was worried about having one more Maji Buu let alone now two of them but they have been fun so far, Duu is super creepy and Kuu I can't tell if he is super dumb and chill or clever plotting who knows what, my only worry is if they have unlimited overpowered regeneration, hate that crap.

@0451 Katatz is actually a pre-established character, he's the father of the Namekian that split into King Piccolo and Kami, rather than King Piccolo himself.

Ayo, they made another powerful Majin, but this time they focused more on strength rather than on controllability. I wonder if there will be a moment when Majin Duu goes on a total rampage, ignoring all orders or following them in a way he finds appropriate, lol.
I loved those Arale-chan references in Duu's behavior, hehe.

Piccolo "forgetting" the Namekian language? And after fusing with Kami not that many years ago? The same Kami who didn't forget the Namekian language after so many years...? That is one of the lamest lore drops in Daima, if you ask me.

Neva acting senile and singing the opening theme was funny, heh.

Vegeta jobbed? I guess it must've been tough to get beaten up only to meet a monster that even Goku was reluctant to fight against. So instead of saying "nothing new", I will just excuse Vegeta, lol. I guess he will return to the battlefield soon and eventually defeat Tamagami #2.

I'm more excited about the fight taking place elsewhere. I wanna see Majin Duu unleashing his power.

@FMmatron It looks even worse if we take into account that Piccolo fused with Nail several years after that tournament; and several years after fusing with Nail - he fused with Kami. Apparently, Kami didn't forget the Namekian language over the years, but Piccolo did, despite fusing with two Namekians speaking fluent Namekian. 😐

I thought Piccolos father was Piccolo? I guess he means that other Piccolos father.
For him to have forgotten his own language though.. even though he fused with Neil.. and Kami.. plot gotta plot.

Of course Vegeta gets eaten by the kraken, I expected nothing less. Its really a shame how he turned into an almost comedic relief character over the years. This is one of the reasons I think modern dragonball is inferior to Z, it feels too much like a caricature of itself. Even at the end of Z Vegeta was strong, dangerous and definitely NOT a comedic asset even though Goku would end up beeing stronger. Here he always gets shafted just so Goku can shine more.. happened in Super as well

I really hope he turns SSJ and blows the kraken up.

New Majin is goofy again, but atleast he seems somewhat stronger.
