But don’t think that we are just facing a pending technical bill, by no means. In addition to looking like angels, they surprise us with a terrifying scenario and the birth of a new villain worthy of their surroundings. Are you ready?

It seems incredible that Dragon Ball GTone of the series most criticized by fans of the franchise Akira Toriyamais doing very well in our weekly reviews. Today he achieved another highlight!

Plus, it’s one of the highest ratings we’ve given to any episode of Goku and your friends. But does he really deserve this? Without a doubt, in my opinion we are facing one of the best chapters in the series, otherwise I would risk a different note.

As episode 22 begins, we are surprised by a dark and frightening atmosphere: the secret laboratory of Dr.the hidden room where a new mutant life form develops that aims to destroy natural beings throughout the universe.

Happily, Trunks and Giru They anticipated the doctor’s plans, and after bypassing his security, the Saiyan introduced a virus into the computer system to neutralize the monster’s formation. However, it seems that Dr. Mu hasn’t said his last word…

Distraught, he tries to reestablish the pregnancy system. Babyname with which he baptized his mutant monster and which he nourished with immeasurable power. And when everything seemed to be over, Goku approaches the monster’s incubator and…

The baby wakes up to everyone’s surprise! It seems that Trunks’ work is not over and now they will have to face this new way of life that, just like he did cell In the past, he had the goal of achieving a perfect body.

The three Saiyans, seeing the monster’s potential, don’t hesitate to give their all with a joint attack to tear it apart. And boy, do they do it! Unfortunately, one of Baby’s remains manages to survive and sneaks into Mu, just as the doctor manages to escape the planet in his spaceship.

Once in space, we contemplated a scene that marked an entire generation. Dr. Mu’s body, carrying his own death, is destroyed by the Baby parasite. In fact, the monster reveals to viewers that he himself is the creator of the mutant empire and the one who created the doctor to help him in his rebirth. A new era of terror opens in dragon ball!

CURIOSITIES!

1- The moment when Baby wakes up and unleashes all his power is truly frightening (much more so in the Spanish version, it must be said, surpassing the Japanese original, just see for yourself).

Interestingly, the environment also transforms with the monster’s awakening and, suddenly, we begin to see cherry leaves everywhere, something that confuses the viewer and creates a much stranger atmosphere, but with a metaphorical meaning: the color pink, like cherry leaves, is usually associated with evil in dragon ball.

2- We are doing these analyzes based on the Japanese version, so we can also analyze the differences compared to the Spanish and provide extra information that you may not know. Did you know that Baby doesn’t like being called that?

This is something very unknown to fans, but the mutant makes it clear to Dr. Mu, when killing him, that he doesn’t like him calling him Baby. The doctor treats him as if he were his baby, his most precious creation, hence Baby. However, paradoxically, Mu was created by Baby without him knowing.
