In another effective moment of badassery, as everyone else struggles to comprehend Goku and Whis’ movements-some of them even getting into a spaceship in order to get a better view-Vegeta stands still, arms crossed, as he watches the fight from below. In a similar sense, Piccolo and Krillin provide color commentary of sorts on Goku’s battle. Still, it’s nice to get reminders that these characters are still floating around in the background of this huge battle. The episode also throws in a few comedic moments with King Kai and Pilaf’s gang for good measure, but they don’t end up amounting to much. That still doesn’t keep Vegeta from smoldering in the corner being bitter about Goku now being on the same playing field as deities (although that moment when he smiles once Goku finally lands a hit on Beerus is pretty wonderful). Whis explains that humans aren’t able to sense the power levels of Gods, meaning Goku is just coming off as a blank slate to everyone at the moment. Just how strong Goku is now is left a bit of a mystery. The show wants you to get comfortable with this new form just like it needs Goku to do the same. Could this troubleshooting portion of things have taken up a single act of the episode instead of the whole thing? Absolutely, but slowly rolling into a new power is sort of Dragon Ball’s style.

So while Goku’s new red-tinted Super Saiyan God form does get widely shown off in this episode, it’s clear that next week is when the real battle between these gods is going to begin. This results in this feeling like a rather unnecessary installment, yet at the same time, it does manage to be pretty damn exciting playing around with a new Super Saiyan transformation. Hopefully you won’t split the planet in half in the process…” So a lot of this entry plays out with scenes where Goku is like, “All right, let’s see how strong a Kamehameha of mine is now…” With Beerus egging him on and being all, “Give it a shot. One could picture some alternate scenario where Beerus takes an approach like this to train Goku into becoming a fellow God of Destruction, which is actually a rather interesting idea.
