This episode was pretty boring. They waited until the very end for any fighting to occur.

I agree with Roshi on this one, it's going to be an interesting fight indeed.

Kind of got spoiled as to who the masked man is on the Dragon Ball wiki. I mean, yeah, it isn't all that surprising but I will definitely be avoiding looking at arcs that I am at from now on.

aww, well that sucks. When i first saw this, i was never spoiled so it was a complete surprise to me. The last fight is pretty cool though.

If Goku loses you guys have spoiled me. Saying I was spoiled on who won, in a show about finding the dragon balls, where the fight is needed to get the dragon ball, and which Goku hardly ever loses, really gives a strong implication that it wasn't what you expected. I didn't hear anyone saying they were spoiled on Goku vs Devil Man. So I'll be going into this expecting him to lose. Could be pleasantly surprised but I doubt it.

Anyways, these fights have been the best in the series, I see Dragon Ball has started to treat its fights more seriously well sprinkling in humor. I think there's another tenkaichi coming up at some point, so I'm excited for when that happened. The lack of treating the fights seriously, and rather treating them as one note jokes was the biggest flaw in the early fights / tournament for me(even if it was only a handful of the fights they often took up entire episodes).

This is certainly interesting. Could it be that behind the mask is Gohan, Goku's supposedly deceased grandfather? If there were any questions regarding the legitimacy of his death then the halo on top of his head proves he died, without a shadow of a doubt. If that's true, then how in the world did Baba manage to bring him back from beyond the grave? A duel between a grandpa and a grandson, who killed the former by accident, should be entertaining. Besides, one would think Gohan is heavily strong due to his training under Master Roshi. I am looking forward to it.

That was an interesting fight. Goku's heart is so pure, the evil was completely absent! This masked man, however, for sure seems powerful. This could be an intense finale.

Haha I knew that!!!

Devilmite beam was such a waste. This guy was just a loss of time. I wonder how he was able to survive this much time by fighting.

Ok, this 5th guy, hmm, Muten Roushi knows him and Goku feels comfortable; He is decent, well mannered and also powerful. By seeing this and considering the situation I wonder if it is Gohan himself. Maybe he never died and stayed low for all this time.

Lets see ..... this is interesting!!!

Classic anime pacing to stretch out the fights as much as possible which = boring! Things will for sure pick up now. Unfortunately, I do know who the man under the mask is.. I watched a couple DBZ episodes several days ago :).

The Devilman moment at the start was pure nostalgia.
Also I'm gonna cry next episode.

funny to see Goku not get affected by the beam whatsoever. The kind of humor that would not be present in Z that makes the original show distinct.

This show is starting to get real comfortable with padding the time 😂 The masked man has a really good character design. It envokes nostalgia because his design seems to take inspiration from literally everyone else in the show but still looks distinct. Although I think I remember him from the back of my mind from all those years back 😅
