The Final Blow

Season 1, Episode 28, Aired
EDIT

Episode Summary

To the great relief of his friends, Goku is still very much alive. It turns out that Jackie Chun destroyed the full moon instead thus returning Goku to normal. With his tail again gone, Goku suits up to continue the match. However, he is weakened by hunger and Jackie Chun by his Kamehameha Wave. Forfeiting isn't an option, though, so they continue fighting reaching the point where whoever remains standing the longest will win. Ultimately, Goku collapses from exhaustion and loses, but he takes it in stride. Master Roshi is proud of him and to get a hefty prize sum which is ultimately spent on dinner for the gang.moreless

    What a brilliant way to end the tournament saga.I thought Goku had won but he then says "I am the champ....."so loses.If he had just finished of the sentence he would of won.Somehow master Roshi stays onto the arena by his toe or something like that and I just could not figure out how he had done it.At the end when goku is scoffing down all the food it is hilarious when he asks for more and more.It is taken a bit far when Master Roshi destroys the whole moon but what do you expect when it comes to the world of dragonball.moreless
