Dragon Ball Kai – Episode 50 Review

Episode 50, "Freeza’s Do-or-Die Full Power! Shenlong, Heed this Wish "

*****SPOILERS*****

Synopsis: At full power, Freeza attacks Goku ferociously. However, Goku is unimpressed. The planet continues to break apart. Kami tells Kaio that the Dragon Balls are almost all gathered so that Yamcha and Tenshinhan can be wished back, but unfortunately Chaozu can’t. Kaio confirms that the Earth Dragon Balls can wish more than one person back to life and probably on a different planet. Kaio asks if somebody whose life was shortened by stress can be wished back. When Kami says it could work, Kaio suggests that Saichoro could be brought back, and thus the Namekian Dragon Balls. Gohan brings Bulma back to Goku’s spaceship. Freeza realizes that Goku is stalling for time, but says it’s pointless, since he’ll kill the others eventually. Bulma wants to leave Namek while they still can, but Gohan pleads for them to wait for Goku. As Popo summons Shenron on Earth, Goku fires a Kamehameha at Freeza on Namek. read more
