Nope, its just a poor excuse for why Piccolo, Krillin and Gohan are having an issue beating enemies much weaker then them.

If Ultra Holy Water takes the same time to spread as aquamist, I don't see a problem. They have 24 hours after aquamist took effect, but then they say that they only have time until the sun rises... But then again, it's not like the sun would rise at the same time at every place on the Earth, right?

Ah, so Piccolo DID have immunity. Okay. Still, curious about Krillin though.

This saga really is like subpar filler...

Piccolo: Hes... changing.

Well, duh! You fought Super Garlic Jr. (Whatever) before, nothing new. Why are they making them surprised? Saga connects to movie but evidently they don't keep all their memories I guess...

Also, that was bs that whomever just simply caught Krillin's Destructo Disc. Even Frieza didn't catch it. They really are trying to make these guys seem op... but their just flunkies.

I thought this certain star that gave them power was closest when Garlic Jr got out from the Dead Zone. Also they are overdoing it with Gohans will power outburst a little.

And now we are back at the start but they are even stronger oh boy...

Well, well, what do you know? A power source of a star for Garlic Jr. and his henchmen floating about in the atmosphere, how convenient is that? It would be quite a shame if a particular someone, who just happens to be purposefully traveling around in space, were to come across this interesting phenomenon and obliterate it from existence, or they could just find some other means to do so, maybe a Kamehameha wave would do?

Hmm, while Mr. Popo and Kami are on their way to spread ultra holy water over the entire planet, Piccolo and the others have to fight against Garlic Jr. as the Makyo World increases their strength. To believe these enemies are even close to Frieza's strength, sigh.

The power scaling is way too bad. Like 10ep ago they were fighting the strongest creature in the universe (Frieza) and now they are losing to someone who was the equal of kami who couldn't even beat piccolo at the beginning of DBZ.

The real shame is it's so easy to fix. Just establish that Garlic Jr. is using some magic to reduce Piccolo's power through Kami. Piccolo is caught off guard by his lack of power and gets bitten by yamcha and the gang. Krillin and Gohan kick ass against the weaklings and the show throws them a well earned compliment and has Garlic Jr. amazed at how strong they are, but then they threaten to kill Kami and blast Gohan while he's not willing to fight back and Krillin takes it. Gohan rages, kills two, but then Piccolo comes up and Gohan can't fight back again. Garlic Jr eventually frees Piccolo's power so he can fight Gohan better and he immediately turns on them and frees Kami and Popo. Then summon the Makyo star to justify Garlic Jr. fighting Piccolo and have Krillin and Gohan be super injured and tired from fighting earlier. Bingo bango it's all somewhat justified.

So Piccolo was so weak because his other half Kami was sealed..? Okayyy… definitely goes against the canon and makes you wonder why he would seal Kami in the 23rd tournament though.

Nothing has really changed since the start of the episode except the demons getting stronger and also Kami and Popo going to that place, which is so stupid. If it threatens Kamis why can’t Popo just go in there himself? Why risk Piccolo’s life when him dying just makes the situation hopeless? They should have at least wondered if the dragon balls could make the infected humans turn back to normal
