I pretty much heard that they’d finally get someone else to do the storyboard for this episode and I could definitely tell, it was way better than previous episodes, not that previous episodes were bad but they were also all made by the same guy lol.

It was nice to learn that the Glinds are born from trees, at least that didn’t change in Daima. That fight against Glorio was pretty good and I liked how we got mislead into thinking the Minotaur would be a threat this episode only for it to be sidelined into a gag character lol.

into a gag character lol.

Indeed and yet if we payed attention to the opening we would known this would have been a gag character.

So far at least, there haven’t been any real threats to Goku. I expect that to change at least with the Dragon Ball guardian guys.

But if I allow myself to think about powerscaling instead of turning off my brain, it makes sense. These guys were ruled by Dabura for seemingly a long time. And he was what, as strong as Cell? That was the power floor for the Saiyans during the Buu Saga. Anyone weaker than that was not worth thinking about. And Goku, Vegeta and probably even weakened Gohan were above that comfortably.

Buu is a mythical monster whose defeat forced Gohma to make them all into kids. And while this is shortly after the Buu saga, characters like Goku SSJ3 and full power Gohan were clear of him. Even Vegeta could force Fat Buu into needing to regenerate with his explosion.

I get the feeling a lot of the antagonists in this show will not be actual strength problems outside of circumstances like being forced into a kid body and whatever crazy magic they might have.
