![]() ![]() It’s been about 50 weeks since Pilaf’s wish, but thanks to Baby’s wish, the BS Balls are back in outer space, and there’s no time to retrieve them.Įxcept…. So the deadline to recover the BS Dragon Balls remains in effect. Instead, he handed the BS Dragon Balls to Baby, who used them to wish for an exact replica of the Tuffle homeworld, Planet Plant. ![]() But Dende was Tuffleized at the time, so he never carried out that procedure. We never get into the details, but there was more to it than just getting the seven balls back on Earth. ![]() But apparently Dende was supposed to “seal them away” or something. Goku recovered the BS Dragon Balls and turned them over to Dende, thinking that would be enough to stop the Earth from exploding. Then the BS Dragon Balls scattered into outer space, and King Kai inexplicably discovered that if they weren’t gathered in one year’s time, the Earth would explode.įlash forward to GT Episode 30. He might have succeeded, except he blurted out a stupid desire for Goku to be a kid again, and Black Star Shenron took him literally. Pilaf inexplicably discovered the BS Dragon Balls and conducted a daring raid on Kami’s Lookout to use them. But they must have reactivated when they recombined in DBZ Episode 141, but no one, not even the reunited Piccolo, seemed to remember them. The implication is that the BS Dragon Balls were a flawed prototype, and once Kami and Piccolo separated, Kami was able to get the job right on the second try.įor centuries, the BS Dragon Balls were kept in storage, presumably inert while Kami and Piccolo were separated. Unlike the ones used throughout DB and DBZ, this set has black stars, and was actually created by the Nameless Namekian, before he separated into Kami and Piccolo. In Episode 1, Pilaf discovered a mysterious second set of Dragon Balls. I haven’t mentioned the Black Star Dragon Balls in a while, so let me just start by recapping what a horrible idea that was. ![]() See? They’re not all dead after all.Īll right then. King Furry gets zero lines in this scene, but it’s the thought that counts.Īlso, there’s some dinosaurs in this episode, which is rare for mid-90′s Dragon Ball. By this point, it would be easy for viewers to think Satan literally rules the planet, so it’s nice that Toei decided to make it clear that there is a world government in place, even if they rarely matter in this show. Even so, it’s nice to see him talk this over with King Furry. Satan acts as the spokesman for the effort, since his heroic reputation ensures everyone will listen to him. Baby was already moving all of the Earthlings to the Tuffle Planet, so they’ll just follow through on his plan and escape the Earth’s destruction.Īnd Mr. The crew from the GT ship are too busy thinking about how there isn’t enough time to re-gather the Black Star Dragon Balls, and everyone else is turning into a panicky idiot, but Vegeta knows his way around mass migrations and interplanetary relocations, so he calls the shots. We really haven’t seen much of Vegeta at all in this series, and much of what we have seen was just to set him up as a flesh vessel for Baby, so it’s gratifying to have him step up with a solution for this crisis. I don’t have a lot of nice things to say about this episode, so let’s get the compliments out of the way first. This is the one where the Earth explodes, and Dragon Team has to evacuate the entire population to the Tuffle Planet. ![]()
