ANOTHER
SUPER SAIYAN? (Episode 105)
This Episode starts
out right where we left off on the last episode, with Trunks
saying the same thing he did in the ending of the previous
one--"So, you must be Frieza." After he threatens to kill
Frieza, Frieza orders his men to go out and kill Trunks.
They measure his power level and find it to be level 5.
But much to their surprise their lesson in Saiyan french
fries is about to begin. While on the attack Trunks is able
to slice them all down with that pretty impressive butter
knife of his. Frieza still remains unimpressed and begins
exchanging a few puns and insults with Trunks.
Meanwhile, the
Z warriors, who are still out of viewing range, cannot figure
out who this new power could be. After listening to Trunks
and Frieza saying how one could destroy the other, we finally
see one take action. Trunks tells Frieza that he is a Super
Saiyan and Frieza just laughs his metal ass off(To further
show Frieza what a conceited idiot he is). Trunks transforms
into the Super Saiyan he claimed he was, and Frieza's face
is bestowed with fear once more and his father remains hardly
impressed. Frieza refusing to be beaten by another saiyan
launches a beam at Trunks which causes an explosion. At
this time the Z warriors cannot believe it, they think that
this person is Goku but Vegeta thinks that the power level
is too high to be Goku!
Trunks
is still standing after Frieza's first blast, and after
another insult Frieza lays down another card--He gives Trunks
his most powerful blast, and Trunks is able to cancle it
out by dividing it into several small beams. Frieza's final
attempt at defeating Trunks is that BIG deathball that comes
out of that tiny finger of his. Again Trunks is able to
stop it and as he holds it up in the air, Frieza makes it
explode. It looks like Trunks is destroyed but up on a cliff
he shouts at Frieza and sends a blast down. King Cold and
Frieza fly in the air to dodge the attack and Trunks jumps
down screaming with his sword in his hands, and then slices
right through Frieza! And that creates such a frustrating
way to end the episode heh.(Frieza probably still thinks
he is the strongest even as he sees the image of Trunks
splitting in two)
What you didn't see: The part when
Trunks cut up all of Frieza's men, he left one alive. As
this guys armor came off in pieces you seen him back up
to Frieza and get killed. In the unedited version you can
see Frieza's hand through that poor chap's abdomen and watch
him pull it out! Also there were some pretty weird dialogue
changes like in the cut version King Kai said something
like "Beat him up kid" or something I forget, but in the
uncut version he says "Kick his butt". My god do they think
that if we see the word "butt" on tv all the American viewers
will go on a killing spree or be scared for life holding
our knees in the corner? They also left out Vegeta telling
Bulma to ShutUp(As if we never hear our parents say that
to us when we tell them we love them ;_;). And also when
Frieza was sliced by Trunks, you only saw him staring at
trunks and slightly sliding apart, but in the uncut you
can see him actually split into two parts.
The Good and Bad: I would have to say
that the music is ok at some parts, and when Trunks is up
on the cliff..the music Funimation put in is fairly descent.
Trunks voice is probably the best one there and King Cold's
snobby attitude fits who he was pretty well (The father
of a snotty genderless brat ^_^). There are quite a few
bad parts though, when Trunks yelled at Frieza from on top
of the cliff, it just didn't seem like he actually..well
yelled it! He might as well just said it in a Ben Stein
tone! Ok well it wasn't that bad :b
The Episode Flaws: There was only 1
flaw I could pick out in the Episode that exists in American
and Japanese. When Frieza got cut half, through his eyes
it looked like trunks was split in two. When in reality
your eyes do not only view what the other eye doesn't, they
both view the same thing. So if he got cut into two, he
would of seen two Trunks, not Trunks splitting into two.
Final word: I actually enjoyed this
episode more then my above complaints show. This episode
had a lot more action then yesterday's episode and slighty
different/lil better music. It was nice to know that all
the American viewers could finally see that SHEman (Frieza)
die once again ^_^.
Rating 4.5/5
