THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
I have mixed feelings about the new music that replaced Battle Power Infinitey; it's not a bad track per se and it might only be my nostalgia, but the old track fitted Trunks' moments of badassery way more. And just like the case with most of the returning cast of Kai, I am quite disappointed in Kusao-san's delivery of the lines and he sounded a little too high-pitched for my taste; his old work sounded a lot better.

Here is the old version for those who want to compare:

I know it's been going on for a while now, yet I must say; I like the fact that Bulma takes a blatent shine to Vegeta, in the US versions, there were only hints.

The episodes move at a fast pace and fill us in on what the US missed out, such as King Cold being stronger than Freezer.

Best of all, no Garlic Jr.:D

well well well- freeza and his papa went down pretty easily, so much for power ups
the only way to stop a gamer from playing is either: beat them, or wait until they get bored (though 2% percent suffer seizures

It's good to see Trunks owning both Freeza and King Cold like they're nothing. This just show how badass Trunks is.

Still, I'm wondering... is King Cold really stronger than Freeza?! He acted like one of the pawns here while fighting Trunks... -__-

Yup, that's the best thing that has happened in Kai XD

The Japanese version overall has better dialogues and Vegeta/Bulma interaction than the butchered U.S. version.



And yes, I love this couple :p

Wow. I just checked pixiv.net and there seems to be an influx of fanart featuring Trunks ever since ep 55 has aired XD

Also, I'm quite surprised with the obssession of Japanese artists to draw Brolli compared to more prominant characters like Piccolo and Kuririn. Every day, there's at least two Brolli fanart being uploaded on there.

I agree with the soundtrack, Its too boring. I mean come on, it made the episode really slow in comparison with the older versions. they really should change the choice of music especially in some badass episodes like this one.

Future Trunks sliced and diced Freeza. Always liked that performance.

It's weird how the timelines mixup.... but something like that happens, don't really remember what happens exactly but it's something more or less like you say guys, whatever it is, Freezer and King Cold are defeated by a Super Saiyajin either is called Son Goku or Mirai Trunks XD

Well it was a kinda slow episode but pretty much showed uss how badass our dear Mirai Trunks is! He definitely kicked the asses of Freezer's team!!! All by himself! And he simply sliced the others killing them instantly and slicing and dicing the poor Freezer turning him later to Dog Chow.... Poor Freezer, he didn't deserved to die like that... Well I guess what Trunks said is true, I'm not as compassionate as Goku... And Kind Cold... Poor guy, he bought all that show XD

I was concerned about the famous "Chop scene" for some reason. I thought it'd get butchered somehow (like the U.S version)

I can't remember but weren't the gun men chopped up as well in the original version? they didn't just..fall over.

Ah nevermind, no big deal. FINALLY TRUNKS!.

He still sounds great too!

OMG! OMG! THIS WAS REALLY AN EPIC EPISODE!

Here i was thinking that i was gonna have to go through the whole Freeza thing again with him and his Papa believing they are the strongest Clan in the universe. Next thing i know this powerful Super Saiyan dude shows up out of nowhere and starts kicking butts. AWESOME.

Getting rid of this pretentious and annoying Freeza with one slash once and for all. Kept asking myself who in the world is this dude just like everybody else (Not that i don't know). lol ... Just wanted to rise the tension a bit :)

Anyway, gotta continue with the next episode..

Future Trunks is a badass, chopping Freeza to pieces was so satisfying to watch.

too much power displays and really slow pace, i miss the first arc pace.

and so miari trunks saves the day, and next episode goku is back, i hope the impact of goku's comeback and trunks's talk won't changed much.

He just took Frieza out, *Mermaid Man snap* just like that! And his dad too!

This is definitely one way to introduce a character!~
