Well, we get Goku vs. Majin Vegeta Round 2. As I had thought, Buu is about to hatch so the moment of truth is coming. Earth is about to be fucked

Tbh though, I really feel sorry for the Supreme Kai here.

I never had anything against fillers in original series, but pacing is really good here - this would be 36th episode after Cell saga in DBZ.

Well, even without fillers it's still quite boring with scenes dragging on forever.

What's with that disco OST? It's terrible. I loved the original Z OST, I loved the original Kai OST, but this is awful. The quality isn't good either, it's so gray and with no color, unlike the original Kai.

They really should have cut some of the scenes featuring Kaioshin and Gohan. The way they left them, it looked pretty silly.

- Gohan, we must do something!

- Yes, we must!

...

(They don't do anything except stare at Babidi and Dabra until Majin Buu is on the verge of being released)

OH NO, HOW COULD THIS HAPPEN! IF ONLY WE HAD DONE SOMETHING!

Z was even worse, as Gohan and Kai literally spent 2 whole episodes glaring at Dabra and Babidi before Gohan finally tried to make a move, right before Buu gets released. The cuts actually made it seem a bit more reasonable. Still a clear case of Gohan holding the Idiot Ball though.

Can't wait for the conclusion of the Goku/Vegeta fight!

More proof the manga is the superior version by far.

That would have given Buu even more power for his revival and

My memories of the original Z run through the Buu saga are very hazy, but I'm glad it's finally getting to the plot-kinda.

Awesome episode! Loved the Goku-Vegeta fight! I did not understand everything from the Buu Saga when I watched as a kid so I'm glad that I'm understanding everything now! I'm enjoying this, there hasn't been a bad episode yet of DBZ Kai 2014! 5/5, can't wait to see more.

That's the first time Vegeta uses those energy-discs to lock someone into place, I think. And we got confirmation that both Goku & Vegeta are at SS2 levels now. Next episode Buu wiill appear. The perfect cliffhanger to end on. But the next episode will have to wait, I still need to get some work done today.
