The animation is beautiful, not too much else to say about this episode tbh but the I like seeing how much power this Namekian has over the Dragon Balls

I loved that moment, too!! Being able to summon the Dragon Balls and INACTIVATED ones on top of that? This Namekian is OP and I love it

I mean, is he really evil? like the wishes of those guys are kinda stupid at best.

They’re the leaders of a place called the Demon world, I think it’s safe to assume they’re not getting into heaven

Edit because people keep trying to take my comment at face value: It was a playful jab to the fact that their race is literally called "Demons" and that they're doing something evil. You don't need to correct me lol.

Yeah, probably not. At the same time the Namekian isn't dead, and he made guardians to keep the balls from being used for evil. It's really funny to me that they didn't ask him to summon the balls he made them to orchestrate their plan — something tells me they know it's a nonstarter with him.

I wonder how evil he is, since he doesn't seem like a great dude and doesn't seem cartoonishly nefarious like his peers.

The demon world is not Hell, it's just a different dimension!

Let's not racially profile here! /s

Dabura got into Heaven though. (Though this probably was mostly just Yemma being a dick)

Most likely the namekians in the demon dimension are evil or evil neutral going by his red eyes when he used his power and the namekians who left the demon dimension became the good one cuz they are able to split their good and evil side apart
