EPISODE REVIEWS

Vegeta calling the earthlings idiots for not raising their hands is the most in character thing he has done this entire saga

It really frustrated me how the humans thought the telepathic voice was just a trick and went back to their normal lives like nothing happened

jiraiya_jester_50

toshiro_tempest_105

Watching Krillin reunite with his family on the lookout is a nice change of pace before the world potentially ends again

vanessa_valkyrie_142

It is wild to see Vegeta being the one to coordinate everything while Goku is stuck holding that energy ball in the air. Seeing Porunga actually grant those first two wishes so quickly was such a high point, but it really sets a high bar for what needs to happen next with the humans on Earth or else everything was for nothing

moryo_mystic_97

nezuko_nuzzle_128

Kid Buu is absolutely terrifying for just laughing while the most powerful attack in history is being built right above his head

vasto_lorde_void

Dabura picking flowers in heaven was the funniest thing ever, especially considering he was the king of the demon realm just a few arcs ago

I can't believe those people on Earth are choosing ice cream over saving the literal universe while Goku is up there struggling with that bomb

aqua_archpriest

The villains watching the fight from hell like it is a pay per view event is such a classic Dragon Ball Z move

My heart broke for the good Majin Buu getting destroyed in that crater while trying to buy enough time for the others to finish the plan

Vegeta asking the humans for help is such a massive moment for his character and it shows how far he has come since the Saiyan Saga

EPISODE CONTEXT

Sitting just seven episodes from the series finale, "Call to Action" falls squarely in the climax of the Kid Buu saga, the definitive endgame of Dragon Ball Z. The preceding episodes have escalated the Buu conflict to its most desperate point, with Goku and Vegeta exhausting their options against an enemy of pure destructive instinct. This episode sets the stage for the saga's ultimate resolution, bridging the gap between near-defeat and the final gambit that will decide everything.
