If you have not read my review for Episode 8, you may do so here: Dragon Ball Z Ep 8: Gohan Goes Bananas!
Gohan wakes up to find out that not only is he down off of the cliff he was on but he has completely new clothes, a sword and his tail is missing! He has no memory of turning into a giant ape or Piccolo destroying the moon to turn him back into his regular form. Gohan doesn’t get a lot of time to figure out what happened as he is attacked by several wild animals, eventually falling down into some sort of cavern.
Inside of the cavern Gohan finds a strange robot. After accidentally powering him up, Gohan is told by the robot to turn him back off and leave. Gohan agrees but not before he asks for a way out. The robot tells him to escape using the tunnel behind him, but that only leads to a huge cliff that is so high, Gohan can’t even see the bottom of it. After waking the robot up again, and complimenting him, the robot decides to help Gohan get some food so he doesn’t starve to death.
Gohan wants to help the robot so he attempts to dig him out of the rubble he is trapped in but it just causes a cave in. Using the last of his power supply, the robot throws Gohan out of the save and into safety. Gohan comes back after the cave has collapsed to talk to the machine as he dies. Motivated by not being strong enough to do anything, Gohan marches off to find his way home with a new determination.
This episode was mostly just a filler episode. I assume it’s only reason purpose was to motivate Gohan to be tough and start taking things seriously, because there are consequences to being weak in a situation like the one he is in. Goku is seen briefly a few times, but all he does is talk and dream about eating food.
I give this episode 2 out of 4 stars.
