477: Gokuu tells Trunks and Goten they can practice matching their kis later, and Piccolo asks Gokuu if he's alright (he does look kind of exhausted). Gokuu says it's nothing, and Piccolo wonders if using Super Saiya-jin 3 in the world of the living really takes up that much energy. Gokuu tells them that this is what makes Fusion difficult to do right. Once their kis are matched, they have to do the Fusion poses exactly the same, and he's gonna demonstrate, so pay close attention. Oh man, I hope I do this justice... First, you stand apart, and straighten out your arms and throw them off to the side. Then you take three steps towards each other, in an incredibly awkward tippy-toe butterfly shuffle, and throw your arms at the same angle inward, "Fu..." Then, you throw your arms out again, and kick up your outer leg inward, "Sion..." And finally, bend inward, one arm over the other, each with the pointer finger outward, and make sure your outer leg is bent straight, "Ha!" Piccolo's speechless, and Trunks thinks that looks bad, as does Goten. Gokuu says they have to form a mirror image of each other doing the poses, and the little dudes don't understand, so he says Piccolo will help demonstrate. Heheheh, Piccolo's reluctant. So, they start, with the throwing the arms away from each other, "Fu...sion...ha!" And then Gokuu says for them to try. Piccolo says he doesn't think Vegeta would've gone through with that, and Gokuu doesn't understand why. Buu's flying around, meanwhile, and it says it's getting sleepy. It swoops down, and the random civilians scream and stuff, and Buu says it's gonna build a house. It turns all the noisy living things into clay, and forms them all into a big ball. Then Buu cleans the area by shooting out some kinda mouth blast blowing all the structural stuff outta the way. And then it takes the clay and starts shaping it by hand, building the freakiest house I have ever seen. Seriously, it looks like a beehive or something, I haven't the slightest how else to describe it. Here, just look at it. Buu stands on top and excitedly declares it's done, then decides to give us a little tour. It crawls in the door/window, and first shows us the kitchen (sitting at the table with a knife and fork), then the bath (taking one), then the toilet (sitting on it, now in its pajamas), and the sink (brushing its teeth), and then it lays down and goes to bed. Then Buu gets up and stretches, declaring it must've slept for a whole five seconds. Then it gets dressed and declares it's time for more killing, and flies off. Up at the palace of God, Gokuu continues instructing the little dudes on Fusion, as Kuririn and everyone look on in disbelief. Then Baba shows up and tells Gokuu it's time, and Gokuu tells Piccolo to make sure they perfect it by tomorrow. Everyone says their little goodbyes (someone even says "have a nice life"...), and Gokuu tells Chi-Chi not to look so sad, she still has Goten. She thinks Goten might get killed by Buu, but Gokuu says that won't happen if he and Trunks master Fusion. Trunks asks Gokuu to say hi to Gohan for him, and then Videl says that she has a feeling Gohan's still alive. Kuririn says it's doubtful, since they'd feel his ki, but Gokuu says they can always hope. Baba says they have to go, and Goten seems to want something. Gokuu asks what it is, and Chi-Chi says he must want a hug from his daddy, and Goten looks down, meaning the answer must be yes. And Gokuu picks him up and says he should've just asked, and gives him a big hug. Aww, it's a very touching scene. Then Gokuu flies off, saying he'll see everyone again when they're dead. Mr. Sensitive... 478: Baba drops Gokuu off at the big palace or whatever, and then Gokuu rushes off to ask Enma-sama a question. He asks Gokuu what's going on down there, why there's so many people dying, giving him lots of work. Gokuu says all the Earthlings will probably end up there, and then asks if a dude named Son Gohan came through there, it's his son. Enma-sama says no, and he'd know if he saw his son. Gokuu's excited that Gohan's still alive, and then Enma-sama says a tough dude named Darbura did come through there. Since the king of evil would probably love to go to hell, he sent him to heaven. Heh heh, what a guy Enma-sama is. Then Gokuu says thanks and flies off, thinking how Videl was right (naturally, she's Mr. Satan's daughter), and wonders why nobody noticed him. And then he does feel Gohan's ki, and wonders why he's there, and then just Shunkan Idou's his way to Kaioushin Kai. Gohan's still playing with the Z Sword when Gokuu shows up, and he, along with Kaioushin-sama and Kibit, are all surprised to see him there. Gokuu asks about his Kibit outfit, and then notices Kaioushin-sama, and Kibit, whom he'd thought was dead (does NOBODY remember the Dragon Balls were used?). Kibit freaks that there's another human in this holy place, and Gohan asks Gokuu why he's there, his twenty-four hours shouldn't be up yet. A little time passes, and Gohan says Buu must've really tore up the Earth, and Gokuu just asks to see the sword. Gohan gives it to him, and he thinks it's pretty heavy, and starts swiping it around, asking if it's supposed to give you special powers. Gokuu asks Kaioushin-sama if he can stay until Gohan fights Buu, and he says yes, and then Gokuu asks for some food. Kaioushin-sama says sure, and asks Gohan if he wants to take a break, and they all fly off, with Gohan asking about Super Saiya-jin 3. Another twenty-four hours passes, and up at the palace of God, Piccolo wakes up the little dudes to begin some more Fusion training. And down on the Earth, Buu's killed off about two thirds of the population. It zooms off towards its next destination, and then swoops down when it notices someone on the road. Buu jumps in front of him trying to scare him, but it's a little blind boy, and the boy just says hello. Buu seems confused, and asks him if he knows who it is. The boy says he's blind, and asks if it's supposed to be a famous person or something. Buu says to stop being silly and open his eyes, then he'll see, but the boy says he still won't be able to see even if he does open them, he's been like that since birth. Now Buu understands why he isn't scared, and then magically restores his sight. It tells the boy to open his eyes, and he does, and he can see. But he's grateful rather than scared, and he thinks Buu must be from another town, since his people don't have things on their heads. Buu asks him if he thinks it's handsome, and the boy says he guesses so, since it restored his sight. Buu's happy about being handsome, and the boy offers it some money. He was gonna go to the store to buy milk, but the stores're all closed. Buu tries to eat the money, and thinks it's yucky, and then flies off. The little boy didn't know foreigners could fly, and Buu spots some dude and turns him into a carton of milk. It goes back and gives the milk to the little boy, and tells him that money doesn't taste good, milk is better, and to stay there. Buu flies off as the boy says thanks, and spots a city and decides to blow it up. Meanwhile, Gohan's still playin around with the Z Sword, and Gokuu says he's gotten a lot better in one day, and the sword probably has a great edge. Gokuu picks up a boulder and says to try it out on it. 479: Gokuu says to cut the boulder in half, and Gohan says he'll probably cut it like tofu with that sword. Kaioushin-sama says to try with something harder, and gives Gokuu a block of Katchin Alloy, the strongest metal in the universe. Gokuu throws it, Gohan swings, and oh! The Z Sword breaks, and Kaioushin-sama and Kibit can't believe he broke the holy sword. Gohan says that the legend must not've been true, but training with that incredibly heavy sword has made him a lot stronger, so that might be its secret. Kaioushin-sama understands, and says that if he's that strong in regular mode, how strong would he be as a Super Saiya-jin, but Gokuu says he's still not stronger than Buu. Then, this freaky old dude (who's dressed just like Kaioushin-sama, and sorta looks like him) suddenly says they're wrong. They all turn around and wonder who the old dude is, and he says he's the Kaioushin from fifteen generations ago, much to the shock of Kaioushin-sama and Kibit. Rou Kaioushin-sama says he was imprisoned in the sword by this powerful evil dude, who's probably not as strong as Buu, because the dude was afraid of him. He's happy to be free, and Gokuu tells Gohan he doesn't think he looks that strong, and thinks they should test him. Gokuu fires off a blast, and knocks him on his ass, and Kibit and Kaioushin-sama rush to his side. Rou Kaioushin-sama then gets up and starts swearin like a trucker, and Gokuu thinks he's another dirty old man, like Kamesennin. Rou Kaioushin-sama says it wasn't his strength he was afraid of, it was his power. Gokuu asks about his power, and he just goes "hmph" and says he's not gonna tell him. "Nanny nanny boo boo!" Gokuu then says he'll give him a dirty magazine if he tells him, and Rou Kaioushin-sama says he doesn't need it, he can watch naked chicks with his god eyes. Then Gokuu asks him if he'd like to touch a girl's chest, and he becomes quite intrigued at the idea. Gohan asks Gokuu what he's up to, and he tells Gohan that he can't go back to the world of the living, so, when he gets back, he'll ask his girlfriend Videl to do it. Gohan says it's totally outta the question, and then Gokuu asks Rou Kaioushin-sama if he minds if the girl's a little older, and he doesn't, as long as she's hot. Gokuu tells Gohan they'll use Buruma, and Gohan doesn't think he can ask her to do something like that. Gokuu asks if the power's strong enough to beat Buu, and Rou Kaioushin-sama says probably. Gokuu tells Gohan Buruma can help save the universe just by letting him touch her chest, and Gohan asks if that isn't prostitution. He's reluctant to ask her, and even if the universe is saved, he's gonna die. Then Gokuu and Rou Kaioushin-sama shake on it. Rou Kaioushin-sama says he'll use his psychic powers to push even the strongest fighter beyond his limits, and says they've probably never heard of anything like that. Gokuu says that's actually a fairly common ability, and Rou Kaioushin-sama says he's wrong, there'll be nothing stronger than that. He asks Gohan if he was the one who released him from the sword, and tells him to come here, he'll make him the strongest fighter in the universe. He'd hoped a Kaioushin would release him, all hope is lost if a human had to do it. Rou Kaioushin-sama tells Gohan to stand still, and then he prepares to give him the power to defeat Buu. Gokuu, Kibit, and Kaioushin-sama all look on with a strange expression as he starts dancing around Gohan, singing all kinds of freaky stuff. Gohan asks him what he's doing, and he says to shut up and not interrupt the important ritual. Gokuu asks how long it'll take, and he says five hours, the power up'll last for twenty. Gokuu decides to take a nap, and Kaioushin-sama and Kibit think they'll have to stay awake for it. Gohan thinks this sucks. Up at the palace of God, Trunks and Goten're practicing the Fusion dance, "Fu...sion...ha!" Piccolo says it's just about perfect, and now they need to match their kis. Goten says okay, and Trunks thinks to himself that it might not work. Then Piccolo says to begin. 480: Yamcha tells everyone to come watch, since the little dudes are getting ready to fuse. Kuririn says they'll become something powerful, and wonders what they'll look like. Kamesennin says there probably won't be much change, since they both look similar. Then Chi-Chi wonders what they'd be called, Goten and Trunks would make either Gotenks or Trunten, and neither sound very appealing. Then Buruma (I think it's Buruma) says they'll only be fused for half an hour, so they won't need a name. Piccolo tells them to match their kis, and everyone gathers round as they begin. "Fu...sion...ha!" Everyone looks on wide-eyed (Mr. Popo looks funny), and tada! Well, nobody (except Rachel) seems to like this, and Kuririn doesn't think that'll be able to defeat Buu. Then Yamcha says the idea must be to fight a fatass with another fatass. The thing starts running, and loses its breath in two seconds. Kamesennin says it's a failure, and Piccolo agrees. Piccolo says that during the "sion" part, Trunks's fingers were out, and they were supposed to be fists, so it needs to change back and try over. But it doesn't know how, so they have to wait until it wears off. Everyone asks the thing what its name is, and it says Gotenks. The thirty minutes're up, and they split back, and Piccolo tells everyone to hold off their questions. They start again, "Fu...sion...ha!" It's obvious that Trunks's finger was off during the "Ha!" part, so we end up with another horribly wrong fusion. Ugh, I liked the fat one better. Piccolo explains what I just said about the fingers on the "Ha!" part, and says they'll have to try again. Well, another half hour, then "Fu...sion..." Kuririn says it seems like the author's been messing around (the Toriyama robot appears to apologize to the editor), and "Ha!" Oh hell yes, here he is. The moment I've been waiting for: Gotenks. Everyone is awed by the incredible ki this perfect fighter exhibits, and Piccolo congratulates him, saying they'll fuse as Super Saiya-jin in half an hour. But Gotenks says he's strong enough to defeat Buu as he is, and Piccolo yells at him about not having any idea how strong Buu really is. Gotenks says not to be stupid, and says he's gonna show him. Buu's body, that is. The god of all DB characters flies off, ignoring the objections the weaklings throw his way, and heads off to face Buu. Piccolo yells that it's all over if he dies now, and Kuririn says he might just be able to defeat Buu. Some time passes, and Gotenks returns. Somehow or other, he was defeated. Everyone does that anime fall over thing, and Piccolo yells at him, saying he's gonna use the remaining day to train, and Fusion will be more effective if he's stronger. Then we see Rou Kaioushin-sama doing his funky dancing, and Gohan looks miserable. ![]() 481: In one day, four fifths of the Earth's population has been killed by Buu. Buu has a child-like fascination for watching people run away from it in fear, and then it kills 'em. It usually blows people up, but sometimes it turns them into candy and eats them. The military has tried fighting Buu, but, they've found out the hard way that their resistance is futile. But the few survivors still have hope, since, according to the radio, their savior will come. Inside a shelter, he is recovering from the Budoukai, and he is the strongest man in the universe, the one who defeated the deadly Cell. And now, he has awakened, and is on his way to defeat Buu. The fate of the world rests in his hands. (No no no, not THE GREAT SAIYAMAN, remember he's dead, unfortunately.) It's our champion, Mr. Satan, and he's just arrived outside Buu's house. He takes out his bag (that says "Satan" in English), and tells the dudes who brought him there they can leave. They ask him what's in the bag, and he says it's his secret weapons. They're anxious to see these secret weapons, so they don't leave. He throws off his cape and belt, and then calls out Buu in a promo that would make even Ric Flair jealous. One of the dudes asks if his throat hurts, since Satan said it so quietly, so he'll yell it for him. The dude yells out a death threat, and Satan gets mad, cause Buu might've heard that. But apparently it didn't hear him, so Satan sends them off, and he wonders if Buu's actually in there. He pulls out a little bush, and sneaks along holding it up to hide himself, and then throws a rock at the house to see what happens. Nothing, and he searches the perimeter, and realizes Buu isn't there. He starts practicing some of his moves, and asks if he scared Buu off, and starts letting out some taunts (keyword: letting out, heh heh). Then, a noise, and Satan starts apologizing to Buu. But it was just a stupid lizard, whom Satan properly disposes of. Then Buu appears on the roof and waves hello, then hops down and Satan humbly returns the greeting. Buu asks what kinda candy to make him into, and then Satan tells it to wait, he has presents for it. It's nothing much, he says, so Buu doesn't want it, but then he says it's a great gift, yummy chocolates. After some slight hesitation, Buu eats one, and Satan thinks to himself about how he'd poisoned those chocolates. Buu liked it, it tastes better than people chocolates. And its next present is a Game Boy, and Satan shows it how to play. Buu thinks it's too hard, so Satan gives it an easier one, which it still thinks is hard. Then Satan runs off and triggers the Game Boy to explode, and Buu says it was fun. It likes Satan, and wants him to be its servant, and offers him some human candies. Satan says they're delicious, and does a "Hey, look over there" thing and spits them out. Buu turns its head, and then Satan elbows it in the face. Buu asks if he saw something there, and Satan says he thinks he saw a shadow, and Buu decides to kill it, and fires off a huge blast. Satan compliments Buu on a job well done, and then asks for it to pose in a photograph. They do the "in" way of having Buu lie on the ground as Satan stands over it victoriously. Then we see Satan making Buu a yummy dinner, and washing its back, and Satan thinks to himself that pretty soon he'll kick Buu's ass. What a swell champion we have. 482: Kibit's reading a book, and Gokuu, while eating, of course, asks Kaioushin-sama if he thinks it's gonna work, and he says he thinks so. Gohan is sitting on the ground now, and Rou Kaioushin-sama is sitting in front of him, with his hands out. Gohan peeks open one of his eyes, and then tries to ask Rou Kaioushin-sama a question. But he's sleeping, and Gohan yells, and tells him he was sleeping. Rou Kaioushin-sama says it might've seemed that way to a mere mortal, and Gohan thinks to himself that this isn't gonna work. Up at God's palace, meanwhile, Piccolo yells out for them to fuse as Super Saiya-jin, and says not to let it go to their heads. They transform, match their kis, and everyone watches, "Fu...sion...ha!" SSJ Gotenks, sweet. Everyone's surprised, and Piccolo asks Gotenks to show him his power. Of course, Gotenks says showing him there would blow up his palace, so he'll go down to the Earth. Gotenks heads off, and Piccolo follows, while Kuririn says he's still arrogant as ever. He flies around, circling the Earth a few times, and then tells Piccolo he's late when he finally catches up. Gotenks tells him that he went around the Earth a few times and even had a nap. Piccolo says he was looking for him, and Gotenks says that judging by the speed he's just exhibited, there's no more need for training, and he's gonna go defeat Buu right now. That's the spirit! He flies off, and Piccolo says the fool's only got one minute left. As he flies, he says the fight won't be like last time, and then arrives near Buu's house and calls it out. Poof, they split again, and then quickly fly away. Buu comes out, and Mr. Satan tells it it was just imagining that someone would insult it. 483: Satan is reading Buu a sad story about people dying, and Buu says it was funny. It climbs out the door (??), and then says it's off to kill more people, and asks Satan if he wants to come with. He says no, he'll stay and make it the best food ever, and Buu gets excited at the thought. Buu flies off, and Satan screams out for it to laugh while it still has the chance, cause he's gonna take care of it once and for all. Satan pulls some dynamite out of his bag, and says not even Buu could survive the blast, and he can save the world just by pushing this switch. Satan hides it in some thing, and tells Buu to hurry back quickly. Then we see an old couple carrying some luggage, on their way to hide from Buu. The old woman then suddenly appears in the sights of a sniper rifle, and gets shot. The old man hovers over her, and we see this sniper gloating about having shot her, and his fat cohort says he doesn't really like this. The sniper says everyone's gonna get killed by Buu anyways, so they'll pretend Buu killed her. He'd always wanted to shoot a person, and it felt great. He orders his cohort to shoot the old man, and he does, and says he kinda liked it. The sniper says they'll go to the city where there's sure to be more people for them to shoot. And then we Satan frying an egg, saying what a great hero he is, and then he notices Buu's already back. Satan bows and says he's still not done, and then looks up to notice Buu's holding a puppy in its hand. Cute little thing, too. Satan asks about him, and Buu says he wouldn't run away from it, and it doesn't understand why. Satan says it looks like the puppy hurt his leg, that's why, and so Buu heals it and puts it down, thinking he'll run now. But instead, the puppy rubs up against Buu's leg, and Buu doesn't understand why he isn't running. Satan says the puppy likes it for healing him, and so Buu decides to run and the puppy gives chase. Buu stops, and asks Satan if the puppy likes it, and he says yes, he's wagging his tail. Buu says it's like him, he likes it, right? Satan says yes, and Buu's happy, and decides to give the puppy some chocolate. Satan says no, you have to give it dog food, and Buu doesn't know what that is, so Satan says he'll go buy some. He gets on a motor scooter and waves goodbye, and thinks now's his chance. He pulls out the remote control, and then looks over there with a telescope thing, and then decides to do it later, since Buu looks so happy, and the puppy's there, so he continues towards the store. Then we see the sniper in the city, shooting people, saying he's now killed forty. The cohort says Buu's supposed to be nearby, and the sniper says not to worry, they have a bazooka. Well, the puppy likes his dog food, but Buu thinks it's yucky, and spits it out. Satan asks if he can ask Buu a question, and it says what, and Satan asks it why it kills people and blows up houses. Buu says because it's fun, that's how Bibidi and Babidi taught it to play. Satan asks about them, and Buu says they were its creators, and Satan says he shouldn't listen to those kinda people, and it shouldn't kill anyone or destroy anything. Satan retracts that if it likes doing those things, it should continue, but Buu asks if Satan thinks those're bad things to do, and he says yeah. So, Buu says it won't do that anymore. Satan thinks about how he's just saved the world, he's a great champion, and then the sniper and his cohort pull up near Buu's house. Buu throws a ball, and the puppy fetches it, and so Buu decides to throw it again. The puppy runs out, and then the sniper shoots him. He says that's one, and the cohort asks if that isn't Mr. Satan with Buu. Buu gets a strange look on its face. 484: The puppy lies unconscious, and the cohort asks about why Mr. Satan would be with Ma-jin Buu. The sniper doesn't care, they'll kill them both and be the new heroes. Satan's pissed at them, and then the sniper fires off the bazooka, and Satan tries to get outta the way. The sniper fires off another one, and there's another explosion, and it looks like Buu's house has been destroyed. The two gloat about their victory, and then stop when they notice Buu's still alive beneath the smoke. And it's pissed, so the sniper tries to grab the bazooka and shoot again, when the cohort suddenly gets knocked out, and falls off the little cliff. It's Mr. Satan, and he says he'll show them no mercy, and kicks the gun outta the sniper's hand. Satan starts swearing at him and continues kicking his ass, and Buu calms down and watches. Satan knocks the sniper off the cliff, and curses them for what they've done. Satan walks back over towards Buu, and notices the puppy's still just barely alive, and so Buu heals him. They're all happy again, and then, up at God's palace, Piccolo looks down and wonders what Satan's done to Buu. Dende says they might not have to fight after all, and Piccolo says Buu's still dangerous nevertheless. Buu picks up the puppy, and they're all three happy, as the sniper struggles up, pulling a gun out of his back pocket. The sniper shoots Mr. Satan, and he falls to the ground, and Buu gets pissed as the sniper tries to run away. It puts down the puppy, heals Satan, and tells them to get outta there quickly, or they'll die. Satan grabs the puppy, and Buu then unleashes its anger. Clouds begin to form overhead, and Satan, Dende, and Piccolo all wonder about it, as does Buu itself. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
