That was a pretty good episode. Unfortunately, Nam appears to be hurt pretty bad. I'm not sure if Yamcha will be able to handle Tien next episode, but I'm sure Goku will kick Tien's butt pretty hard for what he did.

Yeah I felt bad for Nam and Goku seemed pretty pissed I can't wait for him to kick the crap out of Tien. Also I'm starting to love Launch that last scene with her was pretty funny lol.

Namu would run right into Tien. I think Goku and Jackie Chun are the only ones who stand a chance against him. Now the good stuff starts!

Awesome episode! Goku, "He would've died if I hadn't gone easy on him!", LOL. And haha, Lunch is epic!

They messed up the hand coloring for Chaozu when he was stirring the curry I believe. Not once but twice.

Great epi, it is nice to see how far Goku's training has taken him.

Was a nice episode. I somehow guessed that Namu wouldn´t be in the final tournament though.. Lunch had been absolutely epic!

The tournament, so far, is very fun. I can only imagine how more exciting it will get. The rivalry that sprung up between Yamcha and Tien is interesting enough. It seems like they're trying to imply a possible duel between the two. If so, I wonder how that will go. Yamcha did get stronger and powerful under Master Roshi's tutelage, but Tien's skills remain a mystery, especially that third eye of his. I am, of course, rooting for Yamcha. And just how does Master Roshi, Jackie Chun, fit in all this? This is definitely rousing.

It was good to see Nam again, even though he fell short against Tien, which is understandable. Tien sure talks and implies a lot about threatening to kill. Last time I checked, killings can only get you disqualified from the tournament. Unless that changed, I will assume he is continuing to be a showoff. At least he got the skills to back up his arrogance. And speaking of haughtiness, I have to say, it is a good thing Master Roshi, in disguise, told Krillin off for being too arrogant. It is unfortunate to see Krillin still keeping up his arrogance. If he doesn't learn sooner or later, someone has to aggressively knock some sense into him.

Blonde Lunch was so awesome at the end of this episode, even made more amusing by the fact that the gang just follows Lunch without a word, as if it is an everyday occurrence.

Really wasn't expecting to see Namu again. Too bad he was quickly defeated by Tien--who's pathetic attempts at provoking Goku and his peers will only, in the end, result in Goku showing no mercy if matched up against him. Though, I hope that is the case because I can't stand him either.

A tragic ending of this episode!!!

Even Goku couldn't stop himself. This guy's ego is bigger than Krillian's. I thought Krillian was over confident. But this guy's rudeness proved me wrong. I hope Naam is alright.

Poor King! He thought he could defeat anyone and take the title of Martial Art Champion. Poor guy, I cannot think anyone who can make his first fight last but Goku.
