Dragon Ball Z ep 271 - The Ace Up Boo's Sleeve!! "You Become a Hard Candy"


When we last left the battle of Super vs Super, Super Boo was really mad and Super Vegetto was smugly rubbing his superiority in the Majin's face.


As you can see, not much has changed.

Furious but pretty much out of tantrums at this point, Boo retaliates to Vegetto's boasts with a little technique he picked up from Gotenks.

The Super Ghost Kamikaze Attack!!

Though Vegetto easily wastes Boo's first wave of Ghosts, it's his second wave that produces a deadly Kamehameha/Masenko combo, after boxing Vegetto in the middle of it.

Boo celebrates his successful strategy...
... until his head is blown off.
It seems Vegetto saved himself at the last millisecond with Goku's Instantaneous Movement.
And he's admittedly disappointed Boo isn't stronger.

Meanwhile, King Yama watches the battle on his dope plasma screen.
"See, they remastered it by taking out the grain and reformatting it for widescreen."
"This is the kind of quality you can expect when you watch with The Great King Yama!!"
"Actually, all they did was turn up the color saturation and lazily crop the original 4:3 full screen broadcast footage. You'd be better off watching Kai if you want true HD. For that, every frame was recolored and reformatted by hand to truly fit the 16:9 aspect ratio."
"This is why no one likes you, Baba."


Boo doesn't like being called weak. Not at all.

But there isn't much he can do about it.

Except, y'know...
... turn Vegetto into a coffee-flavored hard candy.
Well... that's a twist.
(And now I want coffee candy.)

Meanwhile, in Heaven...

Chichi, Bulma, Videl, and Dabra still can't find Gohan's spirit.
"Please do not lose heart, Chich-san! I, Dabra, will certainly locate Gohan-san. Even at the cost of my life!!"
"You're already dead."


But Videl still refuses to believe Gohan can be dead. She can feel him, alive. Not the kind of ki Goku talks about, but something deeper in her heart. Bulma, for one, believes her wholeheartedly.

"A young maiden in love is strong, you know!"
"W-why, I, um..."
"OOOOH, is this true?! Then I believe as well, Videl-san! Surely, Gohan-san is alive!!"
"Ah, this must be what is called affection~!"
"How beautiful it is~! How marvelous it is~!!"
"Eheh..."
