Considering the Saiyans are on their way to destroy the earth and will arrive in one year, one would think it would be time to start the serious training. But no, this episode is mostly filling in characters on plot (which the audience already knows) and is played for comic relief.
Gohan is still out in the wilderness with Piccolo keeping an eye on him. Krillin is still dodging having to tell Chi-Chi that her husband is dead and her son has been taken by Piccolo, and Goku is still traveling Snake Way.
Bulma does manage to get the Saiyan’s scouter working and to make sure it’s reading correctly, she takes the power levels of Krillin, Master Roshi and Turtle. We find out Krillin is the most powerful of the bunch and Master Roshi is disappointed to find out how weak he has become with his old age.
The biggest event taking place in this episode is that Gohan sees the full moon, which turns him into a giant ape. As from the title of this episode, Gohan in ape form is a big problem! He starts destroying everything in site and Piccolo has to come up with a quick plan to stop him or there won’t be an earth left to defend. Piccolo remembers what Raditz says about needing the moon to transform so Piccolo blows it up, reverting Gohan back to his normal form.
This is an okay episode with a few funny moments, it seemed more like a review to catch people up more than anything. 2 out of 4 stars.
