Dragon Ball Kai ep 78 - Cell's Billowing Humiliation! Kuririn, Destroy #18

Episode sources

Story

Goku and Gohan are training within the Room of Spirit and Time. Before Goku can take to the task of overcoming the Super Saiyan wall, first he needs to catch Gohan up to his level. That means turning him Super Saiyan as well. It's proving to be a bit harder than Goku imagine, however.

"You need to get angry for it to work! Imagine if Cell is trying to kill me or Piccolo or Kuririn!"
"... but I've never seen Cell before."
"Oh. Right. Uh. Freeza, then?"
"... man, this story really has stretched itself pretty thin these days, huh?"

Loose motivations or not, imagining the monster took nearly took everything from him does the trick.
And Son Gohan, for a moment, becomes a legendary Super Saiyan.

(Not to be confused with The Legendary Super Saiyan.)

Meanwhile, Cell is having a tough time coming to grips with his impending loss at the hands of Vegeta.

"It doesn't make any sense!! In the future, you're killed by #17!"
"That means you're weaker than 17, who is a part of me!!"
"Logic would then dictate that #17 plus Cell is greater than Vegeta!"
"... don't you understand it yet?"
"POWER LEVELS"
"ARE"
"BULLSHIT"
"NO! THAT CAN'T BE TRUE! A JAPANESE FAN ON KANZENSHUU'S MESSAGE BOARD TOLD ME THEY WERE TRUE!"
"CHARACTERS ARE ONLY AS POWERFUL AS THE PLOT ALLOWS THEM TO BE!!!"
"IMPOSSIBLE!!!!!!! WHAT ABOUT MY PRECIOUS MATH?!?!?!"
"...Is this blog even about watching Dragon Ball anymore, or making meta comments about it set to beautiful high res screenshots?"

Back in the RoSaT, Goku trains by shooting Kamehamehas at ice.

Boy, he's sure come a long way.

Meanwhile, Cell throws another tantrum.




Nearby, Kuririn has finally located #18. With Bulma's emergency shutdown switch in hand, he needs only get within ten meters of her to shut her down then destroy her; And with that, the world is saved. But, Kuririn is having his doubts.

"I'm going to wring your balls so dry, you'll have a Mummy dick."
Kuririn decides not to kill her.
And no one can ever blame him for it.
(Heynong, man)

Meanwhile, Cell is still having his tantrum.
It goes on for awhile.

"...If I let you reach your Perfect form, will you shut up?"
"... yes?"
"Okay, I'll let you do it, then."
"... Why did you kick me in the face first?!"
"Just bein' a dick."

What's cut?
In DBZ 157, lil Trunks enjoys some butterflies.
Chichi keeps everyone's spirits up at Kame House.
And Cell delivers the best line in Dragon Ball Z:
(Quite.)
Later, in DBZ 158, Goku and Gohan relax in the bath.
