Can Hit Beat the Pride Troopers with Goku’s help? OK, I
think we all know the answer to that.
Hit faces off with Dyspo of the pride troopers while
Caulifla and Kale recover behind some rocks nearby. The standoff continues--with
minimal animation-- until Dyspo charges hand lands a hit (Hit got hit!)For some
reason Hit’s time manipulation does not seem to effect Dyspo. In fact it’s
claimed Dyspo can go faster than light. He lands his blow before Hit can uses
his powers. Furthermore Dyspo can predict Hits’s actions by listening to Hit’s
body with his large ears. Hit continues to fight but appears to be taking the worst
of it, but the Pride troopers notice he his slowly adapting to Dyspo’s style and
decide to intervene. Right before Dyspo goes out of bounds he is pulled back in
by pride trooper Kunshi who uses a spider like web of ki. The two join forces and
Hit struggles against them. Caulifla thinks about stepping in but Goku appears
just in the nick of time.
Goku is using Super Saiyan God, since it uses less energy
than SSB. While Hit resents his help they end up teaming up. Dyspo takes on
Goku while Kunshit tries and fails to trap Hit in an explosive web. However Hit
wants to take Dyspo himself and trades enemies. Goku simply charges through the
explosive web and takes down Kunshi while Hit uses his dimensional abilities to
confuse and attack Dyspo. Hit picks him up and tries to throw him out of the
ring but Kunshi recovers in time to catch him. HIt is on their tale however. He
takes out Kunshi while Dyspo limps back to Toppo.
I didn’t have high hopes for this episode. But the fights with
Hit were pretty interesting. The combination of abilities and counters rather
than raw power made things interesting. This is in contrast to Goku’s fight
were he just plows through ki blasts to beat up Kunshi. If you’re looking for
flaws, Goku’s parts are it.
Overall I enjoyed most of this episode. There were some
budget saving animation pauses, and the cut always were not great, but it still
kept me entertained. The biggest weakness is I knew both Goku and Hit would
win. The only drama was how many people they would take out and how. That has
been the major problem, we know Goku will probably last at least till the end
of the tournament, so fights featuring him have little tension. We could guess
something similar for Hit; he is too powerful and popular to be taken out by
anyone but a top tier enemy.
The fight with Roshi next week could be both funny and suspenseful.
With a character like Roshi we have no clue whether he will win or lose,
besides, its Roshi! Everyone loves Roshi!
