Episode Summary

Emperor Pilaf's is being ripped apart from the inside out, and by the now massive gorilla-like Goku. Not only that, but he is virtually mindless in this state. Pilaf leads an assault on Goku to stop him and fails miserably. The remaining heroes figure out that the key to setting things right is cutting off his tail. That is easier said than done, but Puar eventually succeeds. Following all of the upheaval, Goku decides to leave his friends to go receive training from Master Roshi.moreless

    "The Legend of Goku" is the last episode of the "Emperor Pilaf Saga". It see's Goku go all King Kong on our asses. He destroys Pilaf's castle and then has his tail chopped off. After that everyone goes their separate ways. And that's about it. Till next time on Dragonball! But what do I write now??? Well, it was an ok episode and we see Bulma and Yamcha get together which is nice, and the end of the first saga. What would I give it out of 10? Maybe a 8. I have to say the last few episodes were better, but this is still good.

    • Goku: I think I'm gonna go to Master Roshi's and train like my grandpa did. I wanna get strong! Bulma: But Goku, you're the strongest kid I know! Goku: I know, but when I hit that castle it didn't even shake, so if someone else can come along and tear the whole thing down, I really need to go and train. Edit
