Episodes 76-78
Episode 76: Embodiment of Fire
Air Date: October 12, 1999 @ 5PM Eastern
Japanese Episode: 91 - Air Date: May 15, 1991
As Goku continues to get trashed by Freeza, Gohan finally realizes that Ginyu is in Bulma's body.
Ginyu in Bulma's body attacks Krillin (not harming him at all) and decides to switch with Piccolo.
Gohan hurls Bulma in the frog's body in the way of the body switching and Bulma returns to her normal body, with
Ginyu becoming a frog again.
Afterwards, Bulma gets blown away from Goku and Freeza fighting.
Freeza continues to win in the fight and uses a whip-like blast.
Goku narrowly dodges it and it turns out the blast cutted very, very deeply into Namek.
Freeza hits Goku around and into the ground.
Goku gets back up and falls on Freeza's shoulder.
Freeza tosses him into the air with his tail, and Goku falls into the water.
The only problem is whenever Goku tries to come up for air, Freeza fires blasts so Goku
can't come out of the water. Eventually, Freeza grabs Goku's head with his foot and holds him underwater until it appears
Goku has drowned. Goku now sees images of his friends and some of their corpses, angering him into getting Freeza
off of him. Goku does a Kaioken X20 (Even though I don't hear it on the Dub..), giving Freeza his all in a kamehameha.
Unfortunately, Freeza is barely hurt in the blast.
Episode 77: Trump Card
Air Date: October 13, 1999 @ 5PM Eastern
Japanese Episode: 92 - Air Date: May 22, 1991
As Bulma talks to Ginyu, the frog, Piccolo laughs about how Kaio was right that Freeza was invincible.
Freea gets angry that a saiyajin could hurt him and he attacks Goku.
Gohan goes to help, but Piccolo stops him.
Freeza walks up to Goku and kicks him in the face.
Then he shoots at Goku, missing him, and hits Goku into the water.
Goku sits out of the water coughing and Freeza picks him up.
After Goku coughs water in his face, Freeza gets angry and tosses Goku on the ground, beginning to kick him repeatedly.
Then Goku starts to hear Vegeta tell him he must avenge the saiyajin race and defeat Freeza.
Goku starts to attack Freeza but just gets beat up more.
Realizing he doesn't have enough power to fight Freeza, he starts to charge up a super genki-dama (I will call it this from now on, rather than
spirit bomb, because this is the correct term).
Meanwhile, the Ginyu Force arrive on Kaio's planet and beat up Gregory and Bubbles, before eating some of Kaio's food.
They reveal themselves to Tenshinhan, Yamcha, and Chaozu after Bubbles and Gregory are discovered.
On Namek, Krillin explains to Piccolo what the Genki-dama is as Goku starts to receive energy from not only Namek, but the nearby planets.
Episode 78: Keep the Chance Alive!!
Air Date: October 14, 1999 @ 5PM Eastern
Japanese Episode: 93 - Air Date: May 29, 1991
As Goku continues to charge up the super genki-dama, Freeza has no idea what he's doing.
Bulma tells the frog Ginyu how Goku has always overcome challenges in the past and how he is going
to defeat Freeza. Ginyu tries to escape, but she catches him. Krillin tells Gohan and Piccolo
it's taking so long because he is trying to make a genki-dama powerful enough so that Freeza
will be destroyed without a doubt. On Kaio's planet, the Ginyu Force pose and decide to test out
their powers by blowing things on the planet up. On Namek, Freeza gets angry at Goku, because he doesn't
understand what he's doing, and he starts to hit and shoot Goku constantly. Goku continually gets back
up laughing and charging the genki-dama more and more. Piccolo realizes it won't be long until Freeza
realizes what Goku's doing and he has Krillin and Gohan give him their power. Freeza finally sees the
genki-dama's reflection in the water and Goku tries to hit him. Freeza grabs Goku's hand and starts
to blast him in the face, but Piccolo comes to the rescue. After hitting Freeza with all of his might into
the water a distance away, Piccolo tells Goku to hurry up. On Kaio's planet, the Ginyu Force march toward
Chaozu, Tenshinhan, and Yamcha and Kaio tells them [Tenshinhan, Yamcha, and Chaozu]
to attack the Ginyu Force with all they've got.
