Oh boy Goku get your ass back in the battle and Piccolo get your ass over to the battle! Really they're taking way too long! Lets see what the transformation from Frieza looks like!

Wonder how much stronger syncing with Nail has made Piccolo.

Frieza vs. Vegeta, and they're equally strong. But Frieza can transform so his strength could be higher. Meanwhile, Piccolo fuses with Nail and he is heading for Frieza, too.

The season sets post like Ginyu are using the early Funimation dub, with that trash voice for Piccolo.

Piccolo, lol... did Nail's personality transfer to you? That's quite the difference and you love it evidently.

Wait... wait... something I just realized this episode is that Frieza has upper saiyan armor on.

When he transformed at the end of the EP it broke?!?! What? It can expand with Vegeta going Great Ape but not with Frieza expanding his muscles a bit?

I'm lost at this logic...

Maybe he had a prototype saiyan armor on? Super Old Model... ._.

I loved this episode. Piccolo is back, and he's fused with Nail which makes him much stronger. Which makes me wonder; what happened to Nail? Is he still conscious in Piccolo's body? Could he communicate with him? And will he be seperated into his own body afterwards? Also I can't wait to see him do the same thing with Kame.

Meanwhile, we actually see Frieza fighting Vegeta with actual effort now. But he's transformed, so we're gonna be in for one hell of a ride next time!

Is it just me or is Piccolo's voice off? Sounds like a different actor.

When Nail is fusing with Piccolo on a logical base it would mean +42.000 Strength right? And Piccolo was at max in 20k area (remember he got killed by 4.000 Strength Nappa on Earth). So normally he should be at 60k maybe at max imo depending how much he increased at Kaio. Remember this for next few eps...

Also its strange Vegeta can compete with current Freezer stage. As even right now Freezer should be easily in 100k area.

And the breaking armor thing didnt make any sense to me either (@RyanEsau). He must have used another model or we are lost of any logic.

A fusion, that's a unique new idea for a power boost to bring into the fold. Nail has like, what? 40000 power level? That, combined with Piccolo's power, which should be around 20000 or so, would have him around, at least, 60000 power level? Well, that's quite the upgrade, that's for sure. It certainly won't be enough to beat Frieza, though, if that's the case.

Speaking of which, I am not the least bit surprised that Frieza has a transformation, possibly even more. What I am questioning is why did Vegeta have to demand Frieza to transform? Why couldn't he wait until he and the rest landed a few dents into his armor, damaging him even for a tiny bit before he realizes that he needs to metamorphose? Actually, that is if their combined powers would have been enough for Frieza to resort to such measures. Ah, this is such a bad idea, to say the least.

Oh my, Frieza truly is enraged now. He surely won't show any mercy. This fusion is interesting though. Combining Piccolo's strength with Nail's should certainly make him a lot stronger. I'm not sure how strong he is after Kaio's training, but I'd believe not far much stronger, especially, considering how he refused to do any training at all. In any case, this should give him quite a boost. I fear this battle will be big and bring severe injuries to both parties.

Piccolo is back and also lost XD!!! Piccolo is only caring about Gohan. He really cares about him more than anything. Frieza here looks terrible. Hope they can at least not die in this fight. Goku will be late enough again. But this time it won't be his fault at all.

The fight against frieza has finally began, i cant wait to see how strong he truly is.

We also got Piccolo back though he has gotten training along with the power boost Nail gave him i doubt hes gonna be enough to stop Frieza. Goku better get better soon.

Very surprised that Vegeta was even able to match Frieza's most suppressed state. Let's see what he transforms into, and also Piccolo fused with Nail to become a complete Namekian again cool!
