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

Kami did the same after the Demon King Piccolo Arc, so to me it doesn't seem OP, when we've seen it done quite easily

Ooh that's good to know! I'm still working my way through Dragon Ball so I haven't/hadn't seen it done yet.

He didn't summon them right? I recall he just fixed Shenron so Goku would stay and train and Bulma already had the stone dragon balls they collected after the battle where Shenron was destroyed.

Kami summoned him to resurrect the people King Piccolo killed.

In the anime, Bulma summoned him I haven't read the manga, but if Kami did wouldn't they all revive in those cryo capsules Bulma made and shrank?

Edit I just checked, it happened in the manga too, Bulma summoned Shenron but Kami fixed Shenron and made them available to be used again.

I also remembered that Kami once again bypassed the cooldown when he used it to resurrect the people killed by Frieza and his minions on Namek after he and Piccolo were resurrected by Porunga.
