Summary:

At the Son household, Goku’s lost his appetite, only eating half as much as usual. Chi Chi wonders if he has a fever and is possibly dying, but Goku notes that he’s died twice before and this feels different. The next day while out grocery shopping, Goku suddenly loses control while flying and crashes into the ground. Back home, Chi Chi figures that Goku is too strange for an ordinary doctor to properly diagnose, so he should go to Kaio’s for advice.

While Goku thinks she’s making a mountain out of a molehill, he tries to teleport over to Kaio’s planet…only to find himself in Bulma’s house, right as she’s coming out of the shower. Bulma and Vegeta both freak out, but Goku protests he didn’t mean any harm. His next attempt at teleporting brings him to Kuririn’s police station, and he soon finds himself in a wide variety of different locations (including Karin Tower and with Arale) before finally managing to reach Kaio’s planet.

Kaio informs Goku that he’s suffering from “Delayed Onset Disordered Ki Syndrome”, a syndrome which manifests several days after someone has used their ki in a “crazy” way, rendering them unable to control it properly. In Goku’s case, it’s a result of his use of the Kaio-Ken x10 at the tournament. Kaio says he also heard how Goku was predicting things a fraction of a second later at the tournament as well, and advises Goku to stop pushing himself so hard like this. Otherwise, he might cause himself irreversible damage, and not be able to fight or grow stronger ever again. He says Goku should simply take it easy until the syndrome goes away, perhaps by taking care of his granddaughter. On his way back home, Goku once again loses control and smashes into his house, wrecking it.

At a fancy restaurant, Gohan and Videl are eating with an older couple, an academic bigshot and his wife (Gohan is aspiring to become this professor’s assistant). Videl gives the professor an autographed photo of Mr. Satan as a gift (he’s a big fan), while the professor compliments Gohan on the great presentation he gave at the last conference.

Suddenly, Gohan’s phone rings and he goes out to answer it. It turns out to be Goku, who explains that due to their house being wrecked, he, Chi Chi, and Goten will be staying at Gohan’s house for a while. Gohan is fine with them staying and says they will be back tomorrow afternoon. Still, he’s amazed that Goku could get sick! Overhearing this are none other than Pilaf, Shu, and Mai, who are thrilled to hear that Goku’s not in peak condition.

At Gohan’s house, Chi Chi is happy at the prospect of Gohan becoming the professor’s assistant. He’ll be the first Universe 7 Saiyan to hold down a proper job! She doesn’t know how long it will take until their home is repaired, but thankfully they had all that money from Mr. Satan. Goku notes that Chi Chi had claimed before to have already spent all that money, but she explains that if she hadn’t lied about it, Goku wouldn’t have worked hard. They’ve got Goten’s education expenses to think about, after all!

Piccolo says that he has business elsewhere, and gives them detailed instructions on how to take care of Pan, including singing her to sleep (Goku asks if Piccolo sings to her, but he doesn’t answer). If they absolutely can’t handle things, they can always call him. Piccolo starts to leave, but ultimately returns with even more instructions.

That night, Goku and Piccolo hang out with Pan on the roof of the house, stargazing. Goku complains about how bad it feels to go an entire day without training. Piccolo asks if his condition has improved, but Goku says right now he probably couldn’t even beat Piccolo. He feels just like a grandpa…which he actually is. He apologies to Pan, saying that if he weren’t sick he could take her up into the sky. Pan keeps calling Goku “daddy”, and he tries to get her to call him “gramps”.

The next day, the Pilaf Gang prepares to attack Goku with the “latest and mightiest” Pilaf Machine, which they spent all their money from their part-time restaurant job on. Despite all the hype, this giant robot is still only strong enough to take Goku on now that he’s sick and weak…and even then, Shu and Mai think they probably shouldn’t. Nothing good ever happens when they get mixed up with Goku!

As they’re arguing, Pan suddenly wanders up, startling them. Mai wonders how Goku and co. could have taken their eyes off of such a small child…which is precisely what Piccolo is demanding to know, back inside the house. Goku, Piccolo, Goten, and Chi Chi all split up to look for Pan. Outside, Piccolo’s shouts scare Pilaf and co. so much that they decide to get out of there. Unfortunately, after taking off in the Pilaf Machine, they discover that Mai has unthinkingly brought Pan along with them!

The Pilaf Gang panic over what to do. They consider throwing her out, but can’t bring themselves to go through with it. Suddenly smelling something bad, they realize Pan needs changing. This causes them to panic even more, to the point that the Pilaf Machine goes out of control and flies off into space. As all hope seems lost, suddenly Pan powers up, destroying the Pilaf Machine but managing to fly herself and the Pilaf Gang back to safety. The Pilaf Gang notes that they’ve now got another powerful enemy to worry about, and decide to call it quits for the day.

Pan returns home, and when Piccolo discovers her sleeping there, he assumes that she was inside all along. Gohan and Videl return home to discover that things are all in order. Pan’s even calling Goku “gramps” now. Kids grow up so fast! Goku wonders if Pan will be flying next, but Piccolo assures him she’s far too young. Gohan reveals that he ultimately turned down the job to be the professor’s assistant, saying that it would have kept him away from his family too much.

Disappointing how they used Arale.

How come Goku didn't get the syndrome after using Kaioken x20 against Freeza? Or Kaioken x4 against Vegeta?

I'd have to say... this is one of the few genuinely well-written episodes of Super and it's practically filler. It was cute, well-paced, and actually showed Goku as something more than a battle-obsessed idiot.This King Ryu guy seems like the only directer for Super who can get the characters right.

Also, the art/animation is really picking up. Still below Z's average but probably better than GT's. Still want the animation to be consistently well-done as the 23rd Tenkaichi Budokai.

Wow Goku, you couldn't have just said...

Goku: No Piccolo, I just don't have my usual power right now. I feel so weak and pathetic, like a grandpa.

Piccolo: Goku, you are a grandfather right now.

instead of.

Goku: No Piccolo, I'm so weak and pathetic, I couldn't even beat you of all people.

Piccolo: Jackass.

Well after the battle with Vegeta, Goku spent an entire month in the hospital. If his Ki did go out of whack then, he wouldn't have noticed since he wasn't using it.

But I guess Super Saiyan + Kaioken x10 is just much worse than either of them anyway.

It was a fun filler ep.

That kind of line seems a little self aware. Goku said something similar to Vegeta back in the Cell saga, and the waves of tears rolling off of Vegeta were palpable

Another boring, poorly drawn episode. Too Goku-centric. Goku randomly getting a disease from using Kaioken is just contrived lameness.

Some parts were funny, though. Like Goku teleporting to Bulma's bedroom when Bulma was coming out of the shower and Goku silently looking at Arale when she was poking poop (although Goku shouldn't have teleported to her in the first place, since she shouldn't have any Ki due to being a robot). I'm glad that Arale only appeared for a few seconds; she's never had any place in this series. And it's good to see that Gohan has his Ultimate form back.

It was also cool to see Pan power up and fly, although she shouldn't be able to breathe in space.

So, wait, when Gohan's not getting shafted in battles for lack training. He's getting shafted as a Father by his own Daughter despite spending extensive time with his family by Goku... who is about as much of a father figure as I am a scientist...

Does Goku just have the power of the touch or something? It seems like everyone over at the writing department has something out to poke at Gohan.

Arale is a character from Akira Toriyama's previous most popular manga before Dragon Ball, Dr. Slump. All the details about her (including that she's a robot) can be found there.

Good episode. I loved seeing characters just chilling with each other like when goku and piccolo in this episode

And I also like the the night time setting. We don't get to see a lot of that

Funny too.

Pacing was perfect as well

Preview looks awesome

This has been bothering me for a while now. I understand that Bulma is supposed to be aging, therefore her beauty should be diminishing, but the animators do a really poor job of making Bulma look, well, old. She's as hot as ever, in fact this design is probably one of her more appealing designs, so jokes regarding her sagging breasts really fall flat.

She doesn't look pregnant.

Also wow, Goku is getting old, he used to go kkx20, now just going kkx10 throws out his back :rofl: Only about five minutes in and this is pretty good for DBS only one small problem...

I've seen this done before allot better in Hajime No Ippo with the Dempsey Roll evolution. That move was constantly in the prior arc as a dangerous move that could permanently injure Ippo, his own doctor told him not to use that more than twice and frankly didn't want him to use it at all. Here by contrast Goku already does it and then tells us how dangerous it was. So this problem of being sick/injured because of a crazy move doesn't really feel like it should be here. It's a good episode for DBS but so far it's looking way too familiar to me, and isn't done with nearly as much quality or build up to it.

Edit: Oh hey this went in a different direction. That's pretty good. Pan was pretty adorable, and Piccolo was pretty great. Goku was surprisingly tolerable even so that's pretty impressive.
